Suppose you are evaluating a project with the cash inflows shown in the following table. Your boss has asked you to calculate the project's NPV. You don't know the project's initial cost, but you do know the project's regular payback period is 2.5 years. Which of the following statements indicate a disadvantage of using the regular payback period (not the discounted payback period) for capital budgeting decisions7 Check all that apply. The payback period does not take the time value of money into account. The payback period is calculated using net income instead of cash flows. The payback period does not take the project's entire life into account. Before making capital budgeting decisions, finance professionals often generate, review, analyze, select, and implement long-term investment proposals that meet firm-specific criteria and are consistent with the firm's strategic goals. Companies often use several methods to evaluate the project's cash flows and each of them has its benefits and disadvantages. Based on your understanding of the capital budgeting evaluation methods, which of the following conclusions about capital budgeting are valid? Check all that apply. For most firms, the reinvestment rate assumption in the MIRR is more realistic than the assumption in the IRR. The NPV shows how much value the company is creating for its shareholders. Because the MIRR and NPV use the same reinvestment rate assumption, they always lead to the same accept/reject decision for mutually exclusive projects. True or False: Sophisticated firms use only the NPV method in capital budgeting decisions
