Break the 810,000 future cash inflow into three components: a. The return of the original investment b. The cost of capital c. The profit earned on the investment 2. Now, compute the present value of the profit earned on the investment. 3. Compute the NPV of the investment. Compare this with the present value of the profit computed in Requirement 2. What does this tell you about the meaning of NPV?
Your company is planning to purchase a new log splitter for is lawn and garden business. The new splitter has an initial investment of $180,000. It is expected to generate $25,000 of annual cash flows, provide incremental cash revenues of $150,000, and incur incremental cash expenses of $100,000 annually.

Fenton, Inc., has established a new strategic plan that calls for new capital investment. The company has a 9.8% required rate of return and an 8.3% cost of capital. Fenton currently has a return of 10% on its other investments. The proposed new investments have equal annual cash inflows expected. Management used a screening procedure of calculating a payback period for potential investments and annual cash flows, and the IRR for the 7 possible investments are displayed in image. Each investment has a 6-year expected useful life and no salvage value. A. Identify which project(s) is/are unacceptable and briefly state the conceptual justification as to why each of your choices is unacceptable. B. Assume Fenton has $330,000 available to spend. Which remaining projects should Fenton invest in and in what order? C. If Fenton was not limited to a spending amount, should they invest in all of the projects given the company is evaluated using return on investment?
a. Capital budgeting is the process of identifying, analyzing and selecting investment projects whose returns are expected to extend beyond one year. This capital budgeting decision for an investment requires the analysis of some factors. List and explain three (3) of these factors. b.

If an alternative investment with similar risk pays 25%, should you invest? c. You will retire in 18 years and you currently have GH¢250,000 saved, and your plan is to have GH¢1,000,000 at your retirement.
