Explanation / Answer

1.

At 0% discount rate NPV of project is calculated below:

Net Present value = [$4,500 / (1 + 0%)] + [$18,000 / (1 + 0%) ^ 2] - $6,750

= ($4,500 + $18,000) - $6,750

= $22,500 - $6,750

= $15,750

Net Present value of project at 0% discount rate is $15,750.

Again,

At 50% discount rate NPV of project is calculated below:

Net Present value = [$4,500 / (1 + 50%)] + [$18,000 / (1 + 50%) ^ 2] - $6,750

= ($4,500 / 1.50) + ($18,000 / 2.25) - $6,750

= ($3,000 + $8,000) - $6,750

= $11,000 - $6,750

= $4,250

Net Present value of project at 50% discount rate is $4,250.

Again,

At 50% discount rate NPV of project is calculated below:

Net Present value = [$4,500 / (1 + 100%)] + [$18,000 / (1 + 100%) ^ 2] - $6,750

= ($4,500 / 2.00) + ($18,000 / 4) - $6,750

= ($2,250 + $4,500) - $6,750

= $6,750 - $6,750

= $0

Net Present value of project at 100% discount rate is $0.
