NPV, IRR EXAMPLE
• Assume a project costs $1,000. It will generate
cash flows of $100, $200, $400, $600 for the next
4 years
1
. The discount rate is 10%. Calculate NPV
and IRR.
• CF
0
=
1000, CF
1
= 100, CF
2
= 200,
CF
3
= 400, CF
4
= 600, I = 10%
• NPV =
33.47
• IRR = 8.79%, note NPV < 0, IRR < discount rate.

Like the previous example, except for initial cost.
