Cleopatra's Place costs $360,000 and is expected to generate $110,000 per year during each of the next 4 years. What is the Internal Rate of Return (IRR) of this project? (Could you explain in detail on paper?)
Net present value at 8% =
$110,000 * (PVAF (8% , 4 years) - $360,000 = $364,333.95 - $360,000
Net Present value = $4,333.95
Net present value at 9% =
$110,000 * PVAF(9% , 4 years) - $360,000 = $356,369.19 - $360,000
Net Present value = -$3,630.81
by using Interpolation method, IRR can be computed as
= Lower discount rate + [{NPV @ lower discount rate / (change in NPV's)) * change in discount rate]
= 8% + [{4,333.95 / ($4,333.95 - (-$3,630.81)} * (9% - 8%)
= 8% + 0.54
= 8.54%
So, IRR = 8.54%
