I am extremely sorry for asking the answer alone.I am doing my exams tomorrow and i found the below questions in the open tuition revision exam.I tried my best to find an answer but i couldnt figure it out.Thats why i asked you sir to get help.
Can i know what is incremental cost and how is the scrap value accounted?
Initial cost $300,000
Expected life 5 years
Est. Scrap value $20,000
Addition revenue from the
project – $120,000 per year
Incremental costs of the project – $30,000 per year
cost of capital 10%
calculate the NPV of the
project.
Ask the Tutor ACCA MA
variance analysis
Incremental is another word for extra.
So the net cash inflow each year is 120,000 (extra revenue) less 30,000 (extra costs). i.e. 90,000 a year for each of the 5 years. (And, of course, an extra 20,000 in 5 years time from scrap.)
