68. Current Design Co. is considering two mutually exclusive, equally risky, and not repeatable projects, S and L. Their
cash flows are shown below. The CEO believes the IRR is the best selection criterion, while the CFO advocates the NPV.
If the decision is made by choosing the project with the higher IRR rather than the one with the higher NPV, how much, if
any, value will be forgone, i.e., what's the chosen NPV versus the maximum possible NPV? Note that (1) "true value" is
measured by NPV, and (2) under some conditions the choice of IRR vs. NPV will have no effect on the value gained or
lost.

69. Murray Inc. is considering Projects S and L, whose cash flows are shown below. These projects are mutually
exclusive, equally risky, and not repeatable. The CEO wants to use the IRR criterion, while the CFO favors the NPV
method. You were hired to advise Murray on the best procedure. If the wrong decision criterion is used, how much
potential value would Murray lose?

70. Projects S and L, whose cash flows are shown below, are mutually exclusive, equally risky, and not repeatable.
Hooper Inc. is considering which of these two projects to undertake. If the decision is made by choosing the project with
the higher IRR, how much value will be forgone? Note that under certain conditions choosing projects on the basis of the
IRR will not cause any value to be lost because the project with the higher IRR will also have the higher NPV, so no value
will be lost if the IRR method is used.

much value will be forgone? Note that under certain conditions choosing projects on the basis of the IRR will not cause

advocates the MIRR. If the decision is made by choosing the project with the higher IRR rather than the one with the

76. For a project with one initial cash outflow followed by a series of positive cash inflows, the modified IRR (MIRR)
page-pfc
Chapter 12: Capital Budgeting: Decision Criteria
method involves compounding the cash inflows out to the end of the project's life, summing those compounded cash flows
to form a terminal value (TV), and then finding the discount rate that causes the PV of the TV to equal the project's cost.
a.
True
b.
False
77. Both the regular and the modified IRR (MIRR) methods have wide appeal to professors, but most business executives
prefer the NPV method to either of the IRR methods.
a.
True
b.
False
ANSWER:
False
78. When evaluating mutually exclusive projects, the modified IRR (MIRR) always leads to the same capital budgeting
decisions as the NPV method, regardless of the relative lives or sizes of the projects being evaluated.
a.
True
b.
False
ANSWER:
False
page-pfd
79. The primary reason that the NPV method is conceptually superior to the IRR method for evaluating mutually
exclusive investments is that multiple IRRs may exist, and when that happens, we don't know which IRR is relevant.
a.
True
b.
False
ANSWER:
False
80. The NPV and IRR methods, when used to evaluate two independent and equally risky projects, will lead to different
accept/reject decisions and thus capital budgets if the projects' IRRs are greater than their cost of capital.
a.
True
b.
False
ANSWER:
False
page-pfe
81. The NPV and IRR methods, when used to evaluate two equally risky but mutually exclusive projects, will lead to
different accept/reject decisions and thus capital budgets if the cost of capital at which the projects' NPV profiles cross is
less than the projects' cost of capital.
a.
True
b.
False
ANSWER:
False
82. No conflict will exist between the NPV and IRR methods, when used to evaluate two equally risky but mutually
exclusive projects, if the projects' cost of capital exceeds the rate at which the projects' NPV profiles cross.
a.
True
b.
False
ANSWER:
True

83. Which of the following statements is CORRECT? Assume that the project being considered has normal cash flows,
with one cash outflow at t = 0 followed by a series of positive cash flows.
a.
A project's MIRR is always less than its regular IRR.
b.
If a project's IRR is greater than its cost of capital, then its MIRR will be greater than the IRR.
c.
To find a project's MIRR, we compound cash inflows at the regular IRR and then find the discount rate that
causes the PV of the terminal value to equal the initial cost.
d.
To find a project's MIRR, the textbook procedure compounds cash inflows at the cost of capital and then finds
the discount rate that causes the PV of the terminal value to equal the initial cost.
e.
A project's MIRR is always greater than its regular IRR.

b.
If a project's IRR is greater than its cost of capital, then the MIRR will be less than the IRR.

If a project's IRR is greater than its cost of capital, then the MIRR will be greater than the IRR.
d.
To find a project's MIRR, we compound cash inflows at the IRR and then discount the terminal value back to t
= 0 at the cost of capital.

A project's MIRR is always greater than its regular IRR.
