Project X1 Project X2 Initial investment $ (80,000 ) $ (120,000 ) Expected net cash flows in year: 1 25,000 60,000 2 35,500 50,000 3 60,500 40,000 Compute the internal rate of return for each of the projects using excel functions. (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)

For project X1 : IRR = 20.34%

For Project X2 : IRR = 12.99%

Explanation:

The internal rate of return is the discount rate that equates the after tax cash flows from an investment to the amount invested.

The IRR can be calculated using a financial calculator.

For project X1 :

Cash flow in year 0 = $ (80,000 )

Cash flow for year 1 = 25,000

Cash flow in year 2 = 35,500

Cash flow in year 3 = 60,500

IRR = 20.34%

For Project X2 :

Cash flow in year 0 = $(120,000 )

Cash flow in year 1 = 60,000

Cash flow in year 2 = 50,000

Cash flow in year 3 = 40,000

IRR = 12.99%

To find the IRR using a financial calacutor:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. After inputting all the cash flows, press the IRR button and then press the compute button.
