Ingram Electric Products is considering a project that has the following cash flow and WACC data. What is the project's MIRR? Note that a project's projected MIRR can be less than the WACC (and even negative), in which case it will be rejected.
WACC: | 7.00% | | | |
Year | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 |
Cash flows | -$800 | $350 | $350 | $350 |
Noe Drilling Inc. is considering Projects S and L, whose cash flows are shown below. These projects are mutually exclusive, equally risky, and not repeatable. The CEO believes the IRR is the best selection criterion, while the CFO advocates the MIRR. If the decision is made by choosing the project with the higher IRR rather than the one with the higher MIRR, how much, if any, value will be forgone, i.e., what's the NPV of the chosen project versus the maximum possible NPV? Note that (1) "true value" is measured by NPV, and (2) under some conditions the choice of IRR vs. MIRR will have no effect on the value lost.
WACC: | 9.00% | | | | |

CFS | -$1,100 | $550 | $600 | $100 | $100 |
CFL | -$2,750 | $725 | $725 | $800 | $1,400 |
