    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.

    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.)
