A company has to make a decision about expanding its production facilities. Research indicates that the desired expansion would require an immediate outlay of $50,000 and an outlay of a further $40,000 in 4 years. The net cash returns are shown below. Find the net present value of the project. According to the net present value criterion, should the expansion project be undertaken if the required rate of return is 10%? Year 1 to Year 9 Year 10 to Year 15 $10,000 per year $12,000 per year The net present value of the expansion project is $ (Round the final answer to the nearest dollar as needed.

NPV and maximum return A firm can purchase new equipment for $25,000 that generates an annual cash inflow of $8,000 for 5 years. a. Determine the net present value (NPV) of the asset, assuming that the firm has a cost of capital of 15%. Is the project acceptable? b. Determine the maximum required rate of return that the firm can have and still accept the asset. a. The net present value (NPV) of the new equipment is (Round to the nearest cent.)

Replacing old equipment at an immediate cost of $50,000 and an additional outlay of $15,000 six years from now will result in savings of $11,000 per year for 7 years. The required rate of return is 5% compounded annually. Compute the net present value and determine if the investment should be accepted or rejected according to the net present value criterion. The net present value of the project is S (Round the final answer to the nearest dollar as needed. Round all intermediate values to six decimal places as needed.)

1. A project requires an initial capital cost of (40 million ID). The investor expects the project will generate annual returns of (12 million ID), with expenditures about (4 million ID) annually. If you know that the economic life is (12) years, and the salvage value after the end of the economic life is (4 million ID). Considering that the less acceptable interest rate for the investor is (10%): A. Determining the economic feasibility for investing using the present worth method? B. What is the equivalent annual worth of this investment? C. Find the internal rate of return?

c. A company is planning to invest in a project over a 5-year period, but wants to know its financial implications. It expects the cash in-flow return on the investment to steadily increase over the 5 years. Using the information below, help determine the Total Net Cash Flows, the Net Present Value and the estimated Payback Period. Note: Estimate the payback period to the nearest year.

The IBC Company is considering undertaking an investment that promises the following cash flows: Period 0 is = -$100   Period 1 is =$80  Period 2 is = $80   If the company waits a year, it can make the following investment: Period 1 is = -2 $220   Period = $280  Assume a time value of 0.10. Which investment should the firm undertake? Use both the net present value and IRR approaches. With the IRR method, use incremental cash flows.

What is the project's NPV using a discount rate of 11 percent? Should the project be accepted? Why or why not? b. What is the project's NPV using a discount rate of 16 percent? Should the project be accepted? Why or why not? c. What is this project's internal rate of return? Should the project be accepted? Why or why not?

A company has to make a decision about expanding its production facilities. Research indicates that the desired expansion would require an immediate outlay of $130,000 and an outlay of a further $20,000 in 3 years. The net cash returns are shown below.
