Fore diversified wholesale infrastructure portfolios the long term bond index plus a margin is appropriate. For mature assets CPI plus a margin is more appropriate.
If the opportunity cost of capital for a project exceeds the Project's IRR, then the project has a(n)
irr after interest
Tim Irr is 6' 1 1/2".
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.
You should not be ADDICTED to property of IRR anyways!!stop it!! well you cant...

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.
Projects are supported by organizational infrastructure because the better organized the organizational infrastructure is, the easier it is to organize and develop the project.
Problems with project ranking: 1. Mutually exclusive projects of unequal size (the size disparity problem) - the NPVdecision may not agree with the IRR or PI. Solution: select the project with the larges NPV (not IRR). 2. The time disparity problem with mutually exclusive projects - NPV and PI assume cash flows are reinvested at the required rate of return for the project. IRR assumes cash flows are reinvested at the IRR. NPV decision may not agree with the IRR. Solution: select the project with the largest NPV. A good method to evaluate and rank project better is to use the Equivalent Annual Annuity (EAA) method. This is like calculating for PMT when doing TVM. It simply means, you will be getting that amount as an inflow each year or period. Therefore, you would want to choose the highest figure.
what is benchmark and what's the main purpose of benchmark?
A change in the cost of capital will not, typically, impact on the IRR. IRR is measure of the annualised effective interest rate, or discount rate, required for the net present values of a stream of cash flows to equal zero. The IRR will not be affected by the cost of capital; instead you should compare the IRR to the cost of capital when making investment decisions. If the IRR is higher than the cost of capital the project/investment should be viable (i.e. should have a positive net present value - NPV). If the IRR is lower than the cost of capital it should not be undertaken. So, whilst a higher cost of capital will not change the IRR it will lead to fewer investment decisions being acceptable when using IRR as the method of assessing those investment decisions.
