Ответ:
1. IRR for the first investment: 13%
2. IRR for the second investment: 10%
3. IRR for the first investment give changes in cash flow: 4%
Explanation:
IRR is the discount rate that will bring project's net present value to 0. Apply this, we will calculate IRR in each given scenario:
1. -900,000 + (300,000/IRR)/ [ 1 - (1+IRR)^-4] = 0 <=> IRR = 13%
2. -755,000 + 400,000/(1+IRR) + 500,000/(1+IRR)^2 = 0 <=> IRR = 10%
3. -900,000 + (250,000/IRR)/ [ 1 - (1+IRR)^-4] = 0 <=> IRR = 4%
(all the answers have been rounded to whole percentage values as required in the question).
