1. An annuity of $100 a year will always have a higher PV than a single flow. An annuity for 4 years is always going to be better than an annuity for 3 years of the same amount. 2. C & D have no effect at all on the IRR. B means higher net flows and therefore a higher IRR. A will mean lower net flows and therefore a lower IRR.
