Question:
You need to examine a company and determine how cash flow addresses managerial finance decisions. A company must invest the cash out flows on a project (seen in the table below) and will receive the cash inflow from this project. What would the company's discount rate need to be for this project to be a good decision? Use Excel formulas and Goal Seek to solve for the interest rate as opposed to trial and error
