A present worth of zero at the minimum attractive rate of return means the project

  • A.cannot be evaluated by the present worth method
  • B.earns exactly that rate and no more
  • C.earns nothing at all
  • D.loses money in cash terms

Answer: B

Correct answer: earns exactly that rate and no more

A present worth of zero means the discounted receipts exactly cover the discounted outlays at the rate used, so the project returns precisely the minimum attractive rate. It is the break-even case: acceptable but with no margin, and the rate at which it occurs is the project’s internal rate of return.
