Computation of IRR
(PW)benefits –(PW)cost = 0
Let IRR be i*
NPW = -1000 + 400 (P/F, i*,1) + 370 (P/F, i*,2) + 240 (P/F,
i*,3) + 220 (P/F, i*,4)=0
Assuming trial i* = 10%
NPW = -1000 + 400 x 0.9090 + 370 x0.8264 + 240 x 0.7513
+ 220 x 0.6830 = 0
We find that i*= 10% in the above example is a
special interest rate which has reduced the net
present worth of given cash flow to zero. Thus
i*=10% is the Internal rate of return for this
example.

Solution
Assuming a trial rate of return of 15%,
N.P.W. = -80,000 - 850 * (P/A,15%,5) +1500 *
(P/A,15%,5) +150000 * (P/F,15%,5)
= -80,000 - 850 * 3.3522 +1500 * 3.3522
+150000 * 0.4972
= -3241.07
Since it gives negative value of N.P.W.
let us assume a lower value of rate of return,
say 14%.
(P/A,14%,5)=3.4331 (P/F,14%,5)=0.51937
9
N.P.W. = - 80,000 - 850 * (P/A,14%,5) +1500 *
(P/A,14%,5) + 150,000 * (P/F,14%,5)
= 136.8
Thus, the IRR at which N.P.W. becomes zero i.e.
the value of i at which the exactly same return is
met, lies somewhere between 14% and 15 %
which can be found out by interpolation.

Incremental rate of return (IROR)
If an alternative requires a higher initial
investment than the other.
Evaluation of the rate of return on the
increment of initial investment,
The return yielded on this extra investment is
called the incremental rate of return (IROR).
The incremental analysis is based on the
principle that every investment is as good as
the other.
11
Incremental rate of return (IROR)
Steps involved in the incremental analysis
Step1:- List out all the alternatives in ascending
order of their first cost or initial investment. It
may be pointed out at this stage that in most cases
alternatives with the lowest investment are likely to
turn out to be the ‘do nothing’ alternative.
Step2:- Compare the rate of return of all alternatives
with the assumed MARR, and check if the rate of
return is at least equal to the MARR. If not, the
alternative is dropped and not considered in the
further analysis.
12
Step 3:-
Prepare the cash flow diagram on incremental
basis between the alternatives which is being
examined & the current alternative (to begin with
we have taken the alternative with the lowest initial
investment).
Step 4:-
When an alternative which has just been examined
is acceptable (rate of return is more than the
MARR) it becomes the current best replacing the
earlier one. The new best is examined with the next
higher investment alternative.
13
Step 5:-
In case rate of return is less than MARR, the
alternative under examination is ruled out and the
current alternatives remain the lucrative
(profitable) one. The current best is compared to
the next higher investment.
Step 6:-
The process mentioned through steps 1 to 5
is repeated till all the alternatives have been
looked into and the best alternative is
selected.

Consider project x1 and x2;
If you “prefer Project x2 over x1”

Eg 3 Illustration
A Construction Company is purchasing Aluminum
Doors at Rs. 3550 per piece from a vendor.
The annual demand for the doors is 350 pieces.
In order to develop the in-house capabilities for
production of Aluminum Doors the company requires
investment in equipment to produce Aluminum Doors at
an initial cost of Rs. 1,050,000 initially, Rs. 925,000 at
the end of first year and Rs. 612,500 each year at the end
of year 2 and 3.
The equipment will have no salvage value at the end of
year 3.
Should the company develop in-house capabilities or
continue to buy Aluminum Doors from its vendors?

Solution
Assuming i = 20%
N.P.W. = - 1050,000 + 317500 * (P/F,20%,1) + 630000
* (P/F,20%,2) + 630000 * (P/F,20%,3)
N.P.W. = 16660.48
Now, assuming i = 21%
N.P.W. = - 1050,000 + 317500 * (P/F,21%,1) + 630000
* (P/F,21%,2) + 630000 * (P/F,21%,3)
N.P.W. = - 1677.13
(P/F,20%,1) = 0.8333, (P/F,21%,1) = 0.8265,
(P/F,20%,2) =0.6944, (P/F,21%,2) = 0.6830,
(P/F,20%,3) = 0.57870 (P/F,21%,3) = 0.5645
19
Thus, the exact value of i lies somewhere between
20% and 21% which can be found out by
interpolation, as
i = 20.908%,
Therefore prefer in-house option if the IRoR (20.908%) is
greater than provided MARR.
