discounted payback period
C)
internal rate of return (IRR) D) net
present value (NPV)

7)
In regard to the NPV method, which of the statements below is TRUE?

A)
In the NPV Model, the net present value of an investment is the present value
of all benefits (cash inflow) minus the present value of all costs (cash
outflow) of the project.
B)
In the NPV Model, the present cash flows are discounted at the rate r, the cost
of capital.
C)
In the NPV Model, most future cash flows are stated in present value or current
dollars and the inflow is “netted” against the outflow to see if the
net amount is positive or negative.
D)
In the NPV Model, if two projects are being compared, the one with the highest
IRR is selected.

8)
Which of the statements below is FALSE?

A)
The net present value decision model is an economically sound model when
comparing different projects across a wide variety of products, services, and
activities under capital constraint.
B) The greater the NPV of a project, the greater
the “bag of money” for doing the project, and more money is better.
If a company is short of capital, it would choose those projects that provide
the largest “bag of money.”
C)
By discounting all future cash flows to the present, adding up all inflows, and
subtracting all outflows, we are determining the current value of the project.
D)
Despite all of the advantages of using the NPV Model, it is inconsistent with
the concept of the time-value-of-money.
