Why is npv better than irr?
NPV measures the return a project generates against the costs borne to generate them, while also considering Time Value of Money. Whereas IRR measures returns alone and is hence seen as a myopic metric. NPV will be positive only when the IRR>WACC (i.e. the returns are more than the costs). The concept of IRR being greater than WACC is also called 'Positive EVA'. Needless to say, a project must be selected when NPV > 0! When choosing between projects, the spread between IRR & WACC will determine the financial feasibility ...the higher the better.
What are the advantages of IRR over NPV?

When would you accept IRR and NPV?
You would accept a project if its Internal Rate of Return (IRR) exceeds the required rate of return or cost of capital, indicating that the project is expected to generate value. Additionally, if the Net Present Value (NPV) is positive, it suggests that the project's cash flows, discounted at the required rate, are greater than the initial investment, making it financially viable. In summary, accept the project if both IRR is above the threshold and NPV is positive.
What are TWO formula most directly associated with Budgets and cash flow forecasts?
irr and npv
Why is the NPV method superior to payback method?
How is the method superior to the payback method
Why is the NPV approach often regarded to be superior to the IRR method?
Why is the NPV approach often regarded to be superior to the IRR method?
IRR VS NPV?
IRR: Internal rate return NPV: Net present value Both are measure of the viability of a project(s) You can have multiple IRR (because of discontinued cash flows) but you always have one NPV.

The NPV assumes cash flows are reinvested at the?
The NPV assumes cash flows are reinvested at the: A. real rate of return B. IRR C. cost of capital D. NPV
What are the disadvantages of IRR method?
In the IRR method, the intermediate cash inflows are assumed to be consumed and so are not reinvested. The unmodified IRR method, as compared with the NPV method, will not show the superiority of any two mutually exclusive investments with two different initial outlays. In such a case, an investment with lower IRR could have a higher NPV and therefore should be chosen by an investor. In some cases where there are streams of positive and negative cash flows in an investment, the IRR method may yield more than one IRR. This is not a disadvantage if the calculations are performed correctly.
How do you make capital budgeting?
by considering npv analysis , irr and pay back period
For the NPV criteria a project is acceptable if the NPV is while for the profitability index a project is acceptable if the profitability index is?
less than zero, greater than the requred return
What are TWO formula most directly associated with Budgets and cash flow forecasts?
irr and npv
How does the reinvestment rate assumption affect the NPV versus IRR conflict?
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.
