3) Dakka Company is considering an investment of $500,000 in a financial instrument that is expected to return cash
flows of $80,000 a year for 10 years.
The operations manager says that it is a "no-brainer" because the total cash
flows are $800,000, and it has a payback of just over six years.
The VP Finance expresses caution.
He says that
because Dakka uses a 10% hurdle rate, a more thorough analysis may show that the investment does not qualify
under the company's investment criteria.
Considering the information provided, the company should reject the
investment.
