hi how to calculate the npv
initial cost-300000 .Expected life:5 years
addition revenue from the project:120000/year
incremental cost of project:30000/year
cost of capital 10%
Thanks.
December 18, 2014 at 7:32 pm #221102Present value of annuity for five years is 3.7908 for each future unit.
120000-30000=90000
90000×3.7908=341172
So present value equals 341172-300000=41172Or alternatively if this annuity value not given only discount factors for each year since cash flows are the same each year it can be worked out by adding up
the discount factors
0.9091+0.8264+0.7513+0.6830+0.6209=3.7907
3.7907 is relevant annuity factor to use under this method.Then work out in same way as previously given.December 19, 2014 at 12:52 am #221109Thanks, sir.
