    The details of an investment project are as follows:
    Cost of asset bought at the start of the project $80,000
    Annual cash inflow $25,000
    Cost of capital 5% each year
    Life of the project 8 years
    The present value of the cash flows that occur in the second year
    of the project is:

    dear sir this a question from kaplan text which was required to find the present value
    but i wanted to know that if the question had stated to calculate the net present value of the question then

    is this correct?

    year cash in/out d/f present value
    0 -80000 1 -80000
    1 25000 0.952
    8 25000 6.463
    year 2-8 25000 5.511 137775

    The cash inflows are from1 to 8 (not 2 to 8) and so the PV of the inflows would be simply 25,000 x 6.463.
