A business scenario that the project will not address because it is already the case (or not the case).
The IRR reinvestment rate assumption is the mistaken assumption that the IRR of a project implicitly assumes that all positive cash flows from the project that occur in periods before the end of the project will be reinvested at the rate of IRR per period until the end of the project.
A project assumption is a belief or statement taken to be true without proof, used as a basis for planning. It impacts the project by influencing decisions, resource allocation, and risk management. Failure to validate assumptions can lead to project delays or failures.
Investment and growth rates are not the same. You would invest in a project on the assumption of making a higher return at some future date. That specific project would have a forecast and actual growth rate -- i.e. the rate at which the project grows.
Apparently the NPV and IRR are methods to obtain capital budgets. The reinvestment rate assumption affects both methods because it is what determines now much incoming cash flow is reinvested into project.
An assumption sheet is a document used to outline key assumptions made during project planning, analysis, or decision-making processes. Its purpose is to provide clarity and transparency regarding the underlying beliefs that guide the project's direction or financial model. By explicitly stating these assumptions, stakeholders can better understand potential risks, validate the feasibility of the project, and ensure alignment among team members. It also serves as a reference point for future evaluations and adjustments.
It'll take a lot of gumption to espouse that assumption. That's your assumption. That is not an assumption.
I think assumption of older people is cultural assumption What do you think
I do not support your assumption. Your assumption is based upon few facts.
IRR assumes that all cash flows are reinvested at the project's rate of return, seldom a defensible assumption. Since NPV discounts future cash flows at the investor's cost of capital, it more accurately represents the value of a project. It assumes that cash flows are reinvested at the cost of capital. This is a good assumption so long as the financing can be repaid in stages so as to reduce interest or equity cost. MIRR enables a project to be described with the simplicity of a percentage rate of return, as with IRR, but does not assume that cash flows can be effectively reinvested in the project at the calculated rate of return. Instead, cash flows are assumed to be reinvested at any given rate, such as a bank interest rate.
accounting assumption is nothing
The prefix for "assumption" is "as-".
An assumption that is unlikely to be true.
