UNT Inc is undertaking a $$10,000,000$ project that will generate $$2\mathrm{.}5M$ of yearly after$-$tax cash flows. Assume the project's IRR is $15\%.$ If the firm finances the project with only equity, the cost of capital will be $20\%$ and the NPV will be negative. However, if UNT finances the project with a mix of debt and eouity, the cost of capital will bo $10\%$ and the NPV will be positive. This change to the NPV of the project has what effect on the project's IRR?
