sir in payback period question 3 and 4.. shouldnt it be 2years cz 270-230=40/100 +2= 2.4 year nd in question 4 259310-270000/303830 so it’s 3.24 year sir i have watched your lecture twice. and i dont know but im not getting the same answer as in the practice question
please help me solve this…….how will the cash flows look like? able ltd is considering a new project for which the following information is available: initial cost $300000 expected life 5yrs estimated scrap value $20000 addition revenue from the project- $120000per year incremental cost of the project $30000per year cost of capital-10% calculate the NPV?
In future please ask this sort of question in the Ask the Tutor Forum, and not as a comment on a lecture.
There is a cash outflow of 300,000 at time 0. There is an annuity of 90,000 (120,000 – 30,000) per year from years 1 to 5. There is an inflow of 20,000 at time 5.
How do we get 20% in the second question while discounting?I understand the questions given in the notes have given different percentage figures. I don’t understand how to apply it here.
As I explain in my free lectures (and as the answer to this question explains) you can use any two rates of interest – it does not have to be 12% and 20%.

2.4 year means more than 2 years and within 3 years. Similarly, 3.24 years mean more than 3 years and within 4 years.

thanks sir!
You are welcome 馃檪
Why we used operating profits for payback in this question?where payback should be calculated on returns….
Payback period should be calculated using the cash flows, as explained in our free lectures.
If you are referring to question 1, then the question has given the operating cash flows and not the operating profits.
In this question, isn’t the NPV negative?
(33,830)
It is positive
