The internal rate of return (IRR) of a project that generates its largest cash flows in the early years of its life is more sensitive to changes in the firm's required rate of return than is the IRR of a project whose largest cash flows come later in life.

Answer the following statement true (T) or false (F)


False

The IRR computation does not require the firm's required rate of return. As a result, a project's IRR is not affected by a change in the firm's required rate of return. See 9-3: Comparison of the NPV and IRR Methods
