Problem:

The Yurdone Corporation wants to set up a private cemetery business. According to the CFO, Barry M. Deep, business is "looking up". As a result, the cemetery project will provide a net cash inflow of $97,000 for the firm during the first year, and the cash flows are projected to grow at a rate of 4 percent per year forever. The project requires an initial investment of $1,500,000.

Yurdone's required return is 11 percent.

The company is somewhat unsure about the assumption of a 4 percent growth rate in its cash flows. At what constant growth rate would the company just break even if it still required an 11 percent return on investment?

Note: Explain all steps comprehensively.
