SHOW ALL WORK FOR FULL CREDIT
Consider Project X and another Project, Project Y, with net cash flows as follows:
---- Net Cash Flows ----
Project X Project Y
Initial Cost at T-0 (Now) ($10,000) ($20,000)
cash inflow at the end of year 1 5,000 3,000
cash inflow at the end of year 2 4,000 8,000
cash inflow at the end of year 3 3,000 13,000
a. Construct NPV Profiles for these two projects, assuming your firm
Explanation / Answer
a)
NPV Project X = -10,000 + 5,000 / (1+0.09)^1 + 4,000 / (1+0.09)^2 + 3,000 / (1+0.09)^3
NPV Project X = 270.43
NPV Project Y = -20,000 + 3,000 / (1+0.09)^1 + 8,000 / (1+0.09)^2 + 13,000 / (1+0.09)^3
NPV Project Y = -475.88
b) Cost of Capital 5%
NPV Project X = -10,000 + 5,000 / (1+0.05)^1 + 4,000 / (1+0.05)^2 + 3,000 / (1+0.05)^3
NPV Project X = 981.54
NPV Project Y = -20,000 + 3,000 / (1+0.05)^1 + 8,000 / (1+0.05)^2 + 13,000 / (1+0.05)^3
NPV Project Y = -1,343.27
Accept Project Y at 5% cost of capital
NPV Project X = -10,000 + 5,000 / (1+0.10)^1 + 4,000 / (1+0.10)^2 + 3,000 / (1+0.10)^3
NPV Project X = 105.18
NPV Project Y = -20,000 + 3,000 / (1+0.10)^1 + 8,000 / (1+0.10)^2 + 13,000 / (1+0.10)^3
NPV Project Y = -894.07
Accept Project X at 10% cost of capital
