Created a 350-word memo to management describing the use of
internal rate of return (IRR), net present value (NPV) and the
payback method in evaluating project cash flows. Described the
advantages and disadvantages of each method.
Calculated the following time value of money problems:
1. If you want to accumulate $500,000 in 20 years, how
much do you need to deposit today that pays an interest
rate of 15%?
2. What is the future value if you plan to invest $200,000 for
5 years and the interest rate is 5%?
3. What is the interest rate for an initial investment of
$100,000 to grow to $300,000 in 10 years?
4. If your company purchases an annuity that will pay
$50,000/year for 10 years at a 11% discount rate, what is
the value of the annuity on the purchase date if the first
annuity payment is made on the date of purchase?
5. What is the rate of return required to accumulate
$400,000 if you invest $10,000 per year for 20 years.
Assume all payments are made at the end of the period.
Calculated the project cash flow generated for Project A and
Project B using the NPV method. Which project would you select,
and why? Which project would you select under the payback
method? The discount rate is 10% for both projects. Used
Microsoft® Excel® to prepare the answer. Note that a similar
problem is in the textbook in Section 5.1.
