Explanation / Answer

1a). Cash Inflow

Annual income- 200000

Annuity factor for 8 yrs @10%-5.33

Discounted annual cash inflow - 10,66,000

Discounted Salvage value =0.467*240000

=112080

Total inflow = 1066000+112080 = 1178080

Cash outflow = 1800000

Net present value = discounted cash inflow-discounted cash outflow

=1178080-1800000

= -621920

2 a) less than 10% while we discount the cash inflow with 10%we got. Negative cash inflow

3a) annuity factor @15% is 4.487

Annual Cash flow =200000

Discounted cash flow = 200000*4.487

= 897400

Salvage value = 240000* 0.327

=78456

Total discounted cash flow = 897400+78456

= 975856

Net present value = 975856-1800000

= -824144

4a) Less than 15% as explained above
