Question 1 3 / 3 pts Increasing the value of each of the project's discounted cash inflows Moving each cash inflow forward one time period, such as from Year 3 to Year 2 Decreasing the required discount rate Correct! Increasing the project's initial cost at time zero Increasing the amount of the final cash inflow Question 2 3 / 3 pts Conflicts with the results of the net present value decision rule Correct! Assumes the firm has sufficient funds to undertake both projects Take the Quiz Again Which one of the following will decrease the net present value of a project?

Agrees with the decision that would also apply if the projects were mutually exclusive Bases the accept/reject decision on the same variables as the average accounting return Fails to provide useful information as the firm must reject at least one of the projects Question 3 3 / 3 pts Payback considers the time value of money. All relevant cash flows are included in the payback analysis. Correct! The benefits of payback analysis usually outweigh the costs of the analysis. Payback is the most desirable of the various financial methods of analysis. Payback is focused on the long-term impact of a project. Question 4 3 / 3 pts always accept Project A. be indifferent to the projects at any discount rate above 13.1 percent. Correct! always accept Project A if the required return exceeds the crossover rate. accept Project B only when the required return is equal to the crossover rate. accept Project B if the required return is less than 13.1 percent. Question 5 3 / 3 pts Reduction in the cash outflow at Time 0 Correct! Cash inflow in the final year of the project Why is payback often used as the sole method of analyzing a proposed small project? You are comparing two mutually exclusive projects. The crossover point is 12.3 percent. You have determined that you should accept project A if the required return is 13.1 percent. This implies you should: Rossiter Restaurants is analyzing a project that requires $180,000 of fixed assets. When the project ends, those assets are expected to have an aftertax salvage value of $45,000. How is the $45,000 salvage value handled when computing the net present value of the project?

Correct! both require the total use of the same limited resource. both have negative cash outflows at time zero. have the same life span. Question 8 3 / 3 pts The project has a zero percent rate of return. The project requires no initial cash investment. The project has no cash flows. The summation of all of the project's cash flows is zero. Correct! The project's cash inflows equal its cash outflows in current dollar terms. A project has a required return of 12.6 percent, an initial cash outflow of $42,100, and cash inflows of $16,500 in Year 1, $11,700 in Year 2, and $10,400 in Year 4. What is the net present value? Mutually exclusive projects are best defined as competing projects that: A project has a net present value of zero. Which one of the following best describes this project?
