Decision Rules:
PP = payback period
MDPP = maximum desired payback period
Independent Projects:
PP MDPP - Accept
PP > MDPP - Reject
Mutually Exclusive Projects:
Select the project with the fastest payback,
assuming PP MDPP.

!!! In order to estimate IRR for the project you analyze, you
can use Excel IRR function by selecting the column/row of the
cash flows (inflows or outflows) the investment generates
including the initial cost.

Solution to pitfall 1:
Modified Internal Rate of Return (MIRR)
It is basically the same as the IRR, except it assumes
that the revenue (cash flows) from the project are
reinvested back into the company, and are compounded
by the company's cost of capital, but are not directly
invested back into the project from which they came.
