    What is the IRR (Internal Rate of return) for the following cash flows: Initially : Give out 100 bucks End of 1st year : Get 100 bucks End of 2nd Year: Get 11 bucks

    • A.

      11%

    • B.

      1.1%

    • C.

      11.11%

    • D.

      10%

    Correct Answer
    D. 10%
    Explanation
    The IRR (Internal Rate of Return) is the rate at which the net present value (NPV) of cash flows equals zero. In this case, the initial cash outflow of 100 bucks is followed by two cash inflows of 100 bucks and 11 bucks at the end of the first and second years, respectively. To calculate the IRR, we need to find the discount rate that makes the NPV equal to zero. By trial and error, it can be determined that a discount rate of 10% results in an NPV close to zero. Therefore, the IRR for these cash flows is 10%.
