Turnbull Corp. is in the process of constructing a new plant at a cost of $30 million. It expects the project to generate cash flows of $13,000,000, $23,000,000, and 29,000,000 over the next three years. The cost of capital is 20 percent. What is the internal rate of return that Turnbull can earn on this project? (Do not round intermediate computations. Round final answer to the nearest percent.)

44%

Explanation:

Internal rate of return is the discount rate that equates the after tax cash flows from an investment to the amount invested

Internal rate of return can be determined using a financial calculator

Cash flow in year 0 = $-30 million

Cash flow in year 1 = $13 million

Cash flow in year 2 = $23 million

Cash flow in year 3 = $29 million

IRR = 44%

To find the IRR using a financial calculator:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. After inputting all the cash flows, press the IRR button and then press the compute button.
