Answer 1

Cost RM750,000. RM350,000 in year one, RM325,000 in year two, RM150,000 in year three, and RM180,000 in year four. DCC's required rate of return is 8%.
i. The net present value of this project is:
NPV = -750,000 + 350,000/1.08 + 325,000/1.08^2 + 150,000/1.08^3 + 180,000/1.08^4 = 104,089.4
ii. The internal rate of return of this project is:
IRR = 15.13% - is the rate of return, for which NPV = 0.
iii. The modified internal rate of return of this project is:
MIRR = ((350,000 + 325,000 + 150,000 + 180,000)/750,000)^0.25 - 1 = 7.59%
