IRR Analysis for Equipment Purchase

The document discusses the internal rate of return (IRR) calculations for three different investment scenarios involving equipment purchases and their respective cash flows. It includes calculations for determining whether the investments should be undertaken based on the IRR compared to the cost of capital. The results indicate that one project should not be undertaken as its IRR is below the cost of capital, while the others are evaluated similarly.

Answers:

11 Payback approach = P16,230/2500 = 6.492


Using the PV annuity table, locate the 6.492 for 12 years.
It is at 11%

12 Payback approach = P22,802/3,500 = 6.515


Using the PV annuity table, locate the 6.515 for 9 years.
It is at 7%
It shold not be undertaken since 7%<10%

13 Add all cash flows divided by number of years


=(25,000 + 23,000 + 18,000)/ 3 22,000.00

Payback approach = P50,000/22,000 2.273


Using the PV Annuity table, locate the 2.273 for 3 years

15% = 2.283
16% = 2.246
17% = 2.210
Since the cash inflows are uneven, we need to compute using the PV single sum approach
