The new project will provide a net cash inflow of $275 000 for the firm during the first year, and the cash flow are projected to grow at a rate of 5 percent per year forever. Suppose the project requires an initial investment of $7 500 000.
   1. If the required rate of return is 9 percent, should the firm accept or reject the project?

2. Suppose XHome is unsure about the 9 percent required rate of return. At what required rate of return would the firm breakeven if it assumes that the minimum growth rate is 4.1 percent?
