    Dear Sir,

    I do not understand why NPV of investment B (without considering the offer from Kero) is 29m ?
    I think it should be total PV of year 1-4 + PV of year 5-25 – initial investment = 8.25+26.37-34.6 = 0.03

    What is the meaning of calculation of total NPV for 2 cases : with and without considering the offer from Kero : 29K+4.3m = 4.359 m ?

    Please help me to explain.
    Thank you.

    The NPV is 1250 + 1563 + 1953 + 3488 + 26375 – 34600 = 29

    However all of those flows are stated in $000’s, so the NPV of 29 is actually 29,000 🙂

    Thank you, I understand.

    Pleas help me to answer the 2nd question :
    What is the meaning of calculation of total NPV for 2 cases : with and without considering the offer from Kero : 29K+4.3m = 4.359 m ?

    If the offer from Kero is ignored, then the NPV is 29(as per my previous reply).

    The offer from Kero is only a possible offer (and is a put option). Using the BSOP model the value of this real option comes out as 4,330. The existence of the option makes B more attractive and so the NPV is the total of the two.
