Well obviously because the truth of the matter is that you're not attending IVY LEAGUE schools for their excellence in teaching. You attend for the brand name and networking.

I have cracked it by watching this video over and over. Thank you for such awesome content. Thank God ❤️. IRR is the actual rate of return of an investment. IRR can be found when Npv =0. This is because The cash flows which we are going to earn in future, are future cash flows which have to be converted into their present value. This is done for an 🍎 to 🍎 comparison. If Npv>0 it means capital appreciation and Npv
Waaaw, I have looking for explanations about IRR, NPV and it was always confusing. You just enlighten me. This video is 9 years old but a lot more clear than all the one I have checked. Thanks a lot. I hope that you continue to do that.
I’m taking a financial statement analysis course, and before watching this video I didn’t understand the point of the IRR. I couldn’t see why you would want to set the NPV = 0. Now that I see that the two functions are different ways of coming up with a decision (one a dollar figure and the other a rate), it makes perfect sense.
I like how you explain formulas conceptually like a professor (like how you explained the tax shield in the WACC video). A lot of websites only tell you what the formula is, but don't tell you why.
Thank you sir so much! It's my first time to leave a comment, but your lecture is so superb! I hope you're my professor. Best lecture ever! Clear! And perfect thank you so much! You saved me♥♥
You are are really good. You made me understand this concept better than my lecturer. U earned my subscription. I will keep learning from you. Thanks Sir❤
superb,... conceptual... 8 percent is bep in this ex ... irr more than bep accept.. thats the conceptual point u made amazingly explained in a conceptual manner...!!great boss !!
seriously wow!! one should teach at such a basic level to make people understand. The concept is if market discount rate (r) is greater than IRR (R), then NPV become negative. The inference is, if your market rate is high, you can go and invest the money in the market than investing in the project. For example, from the above sum, lets say discount rate (r) is 35%. Discount rate also means the market rate. So one can go and invest 100$ and make 135$ in a year. But this project only gives 130$. So if Rr, invest in the project. Thank you so much!!
Thanks God, you don't know how much you helped me sir, I am preparing for Finance exam and Your video made it very very VERY clear to me. Thank you sir... God Bless you for your good work...
The algebra to obtain R=.30 : Does that mean that : 1) 130/(1+R) to the power of 1 since there is just one period; 2) 100 replace R; 3) so 130/100 - 1 ... 1.30-1=.30.
The IRR and NPV equations are identical with the exception that you're solving for a different variable. Therefore, as the rate (call it R or r) goes up, your NPV decreases. When you get to NPV=0, the "R or r" at that point is 30%. Can you please explain, why your rate of return continues to increase if your project's NPV goes negative (implying destruction of firm value)? Conceptually, I can't wrap my brain around this. Thank you for your videos.
likquidsteel Taken from a mathematical angle, the higher the denominator, the IRR in this case, the smaller the result. From a finance angle, notice that this is a discounting rate; not a compounding rate. The NPV is basically the sum of the discounted present values of the cash inflows. You're "stripping" an invested sum of money in the future, at a specific rate, of its interest and sorta bringing it to the now where it hasn't been invested yet. So, the higher the IRR, the more "stripped" the money is; consequently, the smaller the amount now, the NPV. I hope you have a better understanding of it now.

Discount rate also means the market rate. So one can go and invest 100$ and make 135$ in a year. But this project only gives 130$. So if Rr, invest in the project.
my question is, how did you find out the IRR was 30%? In this example it is easy because of the numbers, but what if the numbers were more complex and you had several cash flows?
Hey! Question to NVP: I really dont understand why We use the profits of our investment instead of the money we invested. Shouldn't we be using the 100 dollars investment, since we would get 108 back if we invested 100 (say we invest in stocks with 8%). How do the opportunity costs have anything to do with the yield our investment generates?
Wilma Agnes Excellent question! When we calculate NPV, we are strictly evaluating a project as if it were a series of cash flows and then discounting those cash flows back to the present time. Cash flow in t=0 is -100 and cash flow in t=1 is 130. We do not have to discount the cash flow in t=0 because it is the present day, but we must discount the cash flow in t=1 by dividing it by one plus the discount rate (in this case, 1+.08). We can view this discount rate as an opportunity cost of capital (the best expected return in the market on an investment of comparable risk and term); thus, receiving $130 cash one year from now is equivalent to receiving $120.37 today (given an 8% return, an initial investment of $120.37 would be worth $130 in one year). Now that we know that the t=1 cash flow we'll be receiving is worth $120.37 in today's dollars (aka the present value), we can combined it with the -100 cash flow in period t=0 (which doesn't need to be discounted because it's happening today) to compute a "net" present value of $20.37. I hope this helps! These concepts can be quite difficult. I hope I didn't make things more confusing :)
Great video-Thank you. But actually made me a bit more confused. You state IRR is condition which sets the NPV = 0. We know in the case of NPV that an investment should ONLY be made if NPV > 0. So shouldn't the decision rule for IRR be that if the rate of return is GREATER than IRR then an investment should be made?
To understand this more fully you should first understand the relationship between interest rates and present values. As with bond valuation, the higher the discount rate the lower the present value. With NPV this also means the higher the discount rate the lower the NPV. Now with IRR (which in fact is a hypothetical rate to determine break even position, i.e. NPV=0) if it is greater than the discount rate then this would mean the NPV associated with the actual discount rate would be >0, accept. Conversely, if the IRR is less than the discount rate then the NPV associated with the true discount rate will be
Hi, it would be useful to explain the 30%... yes 30% is needed to get NVP=0. But that was either trial and error to get it or a calculation that you didn't explain??
so basically we compare that to borrowing cost, in this case the 8% represents borrowing cost, meaning our the borrowing cost would need to be bigger than 30% for our company to not be able to create value.
How do u determine what 2 Discount Factors to use ? I can t really trial and error as there is limited time in my FM exam. I need this to calculate the cost of redeemable debt
@@keepsmiling1603 you consider the opportunity cost of the investment. If you were to keep the money in a saving account, you could earn 12% annual interest for example. You then use 12% as the discount rate.
Let's say your company has the following decision rule: "we only accept projects with an IRR greater than 15%." In that case, if you calculate the IRR for a project and it is 23%, you would accept the project. Now it's a bit more complicated than that, as it's usually best to do some type of sensitivity analysis, but that's the general idea.
Respective rate of returns need to be calculated and the one yielding highest'll be selected.Either way to get an idea as to what project is to selected you can discount those inflows to present value and evaluate accordingly
