A project has an initial outlay of $1,140. It has a single payoff at the end of year 3 of $8,012. What is the profitability index (PI) of the project, if the company’s cost of capital is 13.17 percent?
Round the answer to two decimal places.
Profitability Index = Present Value of future cashflow/Initial Investment | ||||
Initial Investment = $1140 | ||||
Present Value of $8012 received at the end of 3rd year discounted at 13.17% = $8012/(1.1317^3) | ||||
= $5527.73 | ||||
Therefore, | ||||
Profitability Index = $5527.73/$1140 | ||||
= 4.85 times |
