The Ulmer Uranium Company is deciding whether or not to open a strip mine whose net cost is $4.4 million. Net cash inflows are expected to be $27.7 million, all coming at the end of Year 1. The land must be returned to its natural state at a cost of $25 million, payable at the end of Year 2. Plot the project’s NPV profile. Should the project be accepted if r = 8%? If r = 14%? Explain your reasoning. Can you think of some other capital budgeting situations in which negative cash flows during or at the end of the project’s life might lead to multiple IRRs? What is the project’s MIRR at r = 8%? At r = 14%? Does the MIRR method lead to the same accept-reject decision as the NPV method?

Net present value method Aa Aa Consider the case of Underwood Manufacturing: Underwood Manufacturing is evaluating a proposed capital budgeting project that will require an initial investment of $120,000. The project is expected to generate the following net cash flows: Year Cash Flow Year 1 $37,600 Year 2 $50,500 Year 3 $45,000 Year 4 $41,900 Assume the desired rate of return on a project of this type is 10%. What is the net present value of this project? -$4,415.10 $18,344.79 -$7,244.50 $23,914.50 Suppose Underwood Manufacturing has enough capital to fund the project, and the project is not competing for funding with other projects. Should Underwood Manufacturing accept or reject this project? Accept the project Reject the project
