2. Internal rate of return (IRR) The internal rate of return (IRR) refers to the compound annual rate of return that a project generates based on its up-front cost and subsequent cash flows. Consider the case of Blue Ulama Mining Company: Blue Llama Mining Company is evaluating a proposed capital budgeting project (project Sigma) that will require an initial investment of 5800,000 Blue Lama Mining Company has been basing capital budgeting decisions on a project's NPV; however, its new CFO wants to start using the IRR method for capital budgeting decisions. The CFO says that the IRR is a better method because returns in percentage formare easier to understand and compare to required returns. Blue Llama Mining Company's WACC is 7%, and project Sigma has the same risk as the firm's average project. The project is expected to generate the following net cash flows: Year Cash Flow Year 1 $275,000 Year 2 $400,000 Year 3 $500,000 Year 4 5400,000 Which of the following is the correct calculation of project Sigma's IRR? 0 37.31% 27.98% 0 26.43% 31.09% If this is an independent project, the IRR method states that the firm should If the project's cost capital were to increase, how would that affect the IRR? The IRR would decrease The IRR would increase The IRR would not change
