Which of the Following Statements Is CORRECT

question 127

Multiple Choice

Which of the following statements is CORRECT?

• A) If CF₀ is positive and all the other CFs are negative, then you cannot solve for I.
• B) If you have a series of cash flows, each of which is positive, you can solve for I, where the solution value of I causes the PV of the cash flows to equal the cash flow at Time 0.
• C) If you have a series of cash flows, and CF₀ is negative but each of the following CFs is positive, you can solve for I, but only if the sum of the undiscounted cash flows exceeds the cost.
• D) To solve for I, one must identify the value of I that causes the PV of the positive CFs to equal the absolute value of the PV of the negative CFs.This is, essentially, a trial-and-error procedure that is easy with a computer or financial calculator but quite difficult otherwise.
• E) If you solve for I and get a negative number, then you must have made a mistake.
