Brunette Company is contemplating investing in a new piece of manufacturing machinery. The amount to be invested is $180,000. The present value of the future cash flows generated by the project is $163,000. Should they invest in this project? Oa. yes, because the rate of return on the project is equal to the desired rate of return used to calculate the present value of the future cash flows Ob. no, because net present value is +$17,000 Oc. no, because the rate of return on the project is less than the desired rate of return used to calculate the present value of the future cash flows Od. yes, because the rate of return on the project exceeds the desired rate of return used to calculate the present value of the future cash flows

Suppose you are evaluating a project with the expected future cash inflows shown in the following table. Your boss has asked you to calculate the project’s net present value (NPV). You don’t know the project’s initial cost, but you do know the project’s regular, or conventional, payback period is 2.50 years. Year Cash Flow Year 1 $375,000 Year 2 $450,000 Year 3 $475,000 Year 4 $425,000 If the project’s weighted average cost of capital (WACC) is 10%, the project’s NPV (rounded to the nearest dollar) is: $267,719 $312,338 $297,465 $282,592 Which of the following statements indicate a disadvantage of using the regular payback period (not the discounted payback period) for capital budgeting decisions? Check all that apply. The payback period does not take the time value of money into account. The payback period does not take the project’s entire life into account. The payback period is calculated using net income…

CVD Ltd needs to choose from three mutually exclusive projects. The net cash flows from the projects will depend on market demand. All of the projects will last for only one year. The forecast net cash flows and their associated probabilities are given below:Market Demand Probability Weak 0.20 Average 0.50 Good 0.30 Market Demand Project A Project B Project C Weak R450 000 R350 000 R550 000 Average R550 000 R400 000 R500 000 Good R650 000 R450 000 R700 000 Required:Calculate the expected value of the net cash flows from each of the three projects.
A firm evaluates all of its projects by applying the NPV decision rule. A project under consideration has the following cash flows: Year 0 1 2 WN 3 NPV Cash Flow What is the NPV for the project if the required return is 12 percent?

K- Consider a project with free cash flow in one year of $140,702 or $180,360, with either outcome being equally likely. The initial investment required for the project is $80,000, and the project's cost of capital is 17%. The risk-free interest rate is 5% (Assume no taxes or distress costs) a. What is the NPV of this project? b. Suppose that to raise the funds for the initial investment, the project is sold to investors as an all-equity firm. The equity holders will receive the cash flows of the project in one year. How much money can be raised in this way-that is, what is the initial market value of the unlevered equity? c. Suppose the initial $80,000 is instead raised by borrowing at the risk-free interest rate. What are the cash flows of the levered equity, and what is its initial value according to M&M? a. What is the NPV of this project? The NPV is $ 57200 (Round to the nearest dollar) b. Suppose that to raise the funds for the initial investment, the project is sold to investors…
