Your division is considering two investment projects, each of which requires an up-front expenditure of $17 million. You estimate that the investments will produce the following net cash flows:
Year | Project A | Project B | ||
1 | $ 5,000,000 | $20,000,000 | ||
2 | 10,000,000 | 10,000,000 | ||
3 | 20,000,000 | 6,000,000 |
What are the two projects' net present values, assuming the cost of capital is 5%? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to the nearest dollar.

(a) NPV = Present value of all Cash inflows – Initial Investments
NPV @ 5%:

NPV @ 15%:

(b) Project’s IRR:
IRR= |
IRR is the rate whether NPV = 0 |
Project A:
So, $17,000,000 = $5,000,000 / (1+r) + $10,000,000 / (1+r)2 + $20,000,000 / (1+r)3
NPV @ 36%
= $5,000,000 / (1+.36) + $10,000,000 / (1+.36)2 + $20,000,000 / (1+.36)3 - $17,000,000
=$33889.68
NPV @ 37%
= $5,000,000 / (1+.37) + $10,000,000 / (1+.37)2 + $20,000,000 / (1+.37)3 - $17,000,000
=$(2,44,424.24)
IRR = R1+NPV1*(R2-R1)/(NPV1-NPV2)
= 36+33889.68*(37-36)/(33889.68-(-244424.24))
= 36+0.12
IRR = 36.12%
Project B:
So, $17,000,000 = $20,000,000 / (1+r) + $10,000,000 / (1+r)2 + $6,000,000 / (1+r)3
NPV @ 65%
= $20,000,000 / (1+.65) + $10,000,000 / (1+.65)2 + $6,000,000 / (1+.65)3 - $17,000,000
= $129977.46
NPV @ 66%
= $20,000,000 / (1+.66) + $10,000,000 / (1+.66)2 + $6,000,000 / (1+.66)3 - $17,000,000
= $(11,156.25)
IRR = R1+NPV1*(R2-R1)/(NPV1-NPV2)
= 65+129977.46*(66-65)/(129977.46-(-11156.25))
= 65+0.92
IRR = 65.92%
