Question

Exercise 24-7 Iggy Company is considering three capital expenditure projects. Relevant data for the projects are as follows. Annual Life of Project Investment Income Project $241,900 $17,540 6 years 273,300 20,750 9 years 15,700 7 years 22A 23A 24A 282,400 Annual income is constant over the life of the project. Each project is expected to have zero salvage value at the end of the project. Iggy Company uses the straight-line method of depreciation. her Determine the internal rate of return for each project. (Round answers O decimal places, e.g. 10. For calculation purposes, use 5 decimal places as displayed in the factor table provided.) Internal Rate Project Return 22A 23A 24A

56,042.86

Depreciation = Investment / No. of years

Cash Inflow after depreciation = Net income + Depreciation

For calculation of Net cash inflow we will add back depreciation amount as depreciation is a NON Cash expense.

IRR is rate which satisfies the following condition:

Present Value of Cash inflows = Initial Cash outflow

Cash Inflow per year * PVAF of required project = Initial Cash Outflow

22A

57,856.67 * PVAF = 241,900

PVAF = 4.181

23A

51,116.67* PVAF = 273,300

PVAF = 5.346

24A

56,042.86 * PVAF = 282,400

PVAF = 5.039

Now we will to find which Rate of capital has these PVAF at required years.

22A = PVAF of 4.181 is between 11% and 12%

23A = PVAF of 5.346 is between 11% and 12%

24A = PVAF of 5.039 is between 8% and 9%

IRR = Lower rate + NPV (L) / [NPV (L) – NPV (H)] * (H-L) Rate

22A

PVAF @11% for 6 Years = 4.231

PVAF @12% for 6 Years = 4.111

NPV@11% for 6 Years = (57,856.67 * 4.231) - 241,900 = 2,891.57

NPV@12% for 6 Years = (57,856.67 * 4.111) - 241,900 = (4,051.23)

IRR = 11% + [2,891.57 / (2,891.57 – (-4,051.23))] * (12-11)

=11% + [2,891.57 / (2,891.57 + 4,051.23)] * (12-11)

= 11% + (2,891.57 / 6942.8)*1%

IRR of 22A= 11.416%

23A

PVAF @11% for 9 Years = 5.537

PVAF @12% for 9 Years = 5.328

NPV@11% for 9 Years = (51,116.67* 5.537) - 273,300= 9,733

NPV@12% for 9 Years = (51,116.67* 5.328) - 273,300= (950.38)

IRR = 11% + [9,733/ (9,733+ 950.38)] * (12-11)

= 11% + (9,733/ 10,683.38)*1%

IRR of 23A= 11.911%

24A

PVAF @8% for 7 Years = 5.206

PVAF @9% for 7 Years = 5.032

NPV@11% for 9 Years = (56,042.86 * 5.206) - 282,400= 9,359.13

NPV@12% for 9 Years = (56,042.86 * 5.032) - 282,400 = (392.33)

IRR = 8% + [9,359.13/ (9,359.13+ 392.33)] * (9-8)

= 8% + (9,359.13/ 9,751.46)*1%

IRR of 24A= 8.96%

It is recommended to choose Project 22A as IRR is lower is that case.
