Q

What is the initernal rate of return? how to calculate it?

A

IRR is the discount rate that will make the npv of a project nil

IRR = L+(NPVL/(NPVL-NPVH))*(H-L)
L = Lower discount rate
H = Higher discount rate
NPVL = NPV calculated at L
NPVH = NPV calculated at H

Q

What are the positives and negatives of IRR?

A

Positives:
1.) Time value of money
2.) Cash based
3.) Life of project
4.) Percentage measured

Q

The calculations for the value of the 3 options shareholders have for a rights issue

A

24
Q

What do the sections of the Capital asset pricing model (CAPM) mean?

A

E (Ri) = Return required by investors
Rf = Risk free rate
E(rm) = Market rate of return or return on market portfolio
E(rm)-Rf = equity risk premium or Market risk premium
Bi = Beta of teh sercurity or measure of risk of that sercuirity
Ke = Cost of equity

25
Q

How to calculate the project specific discount rate?

A

Step 1: We find a proxy company that does the same business as the one we want to enter.
Step 2: We degear the Equity Beta of the proxy to establish the asset Beta.
Step 3: We regear the asset Beta with our own gearing rate.
Step 4: We use the regeared rate in CAPM to calculate the project specific discount rate.
