Concerning NPV: 8.5 Net Present Value Describe how NPV is calculated and describe the information this a. measure provides about a sequence of cash flows. What is the NPV criterion decision rule? Why is NPV considered to be a superior method of evaluating the cash flows from a project? Suppose the NPV fora project's cash flows is computed to be $2,500. What does this number represent with respect b. to the firm's shareholders?

Which of the following statements is CORRECT? Assume that the project being considered has normal cash flows, with one outflow followed by a series of inflows . a.

The higher the WACC used to calculate the NPV, the lower the calculated NPV will be c. If a project’s NPV is greater than zero, then its IRR must be less than the WACC . d. If a project’s NPV is greater than zero, then its IRR must be less than zero. e. The NPVs of relatively risky projects should be found using relatively low WACCs
