Explanation / Answer
1.
NPV = c1/(1+y)1 + c2/(1+y)2 + ……+ cn/(1+y)n + 1000/(1+y)n
IRR is the rate at which NPV is zero.
comput y value using goal seek function in excel.
IRR = 10.047%, which is less than cost of capital (12%). Hence reject the project.

Cumulative cash flow will switch from negative to positive between 2nd and 3rd years.
Payback = 2+170/520 = 2.3269 years.
3.
NPV is negative, so the project should be rejected.
4.
NPV is negative, so the project should be rejected.
