Hampton’s Wheels is considering a new project that will generate OCFs of 393,458 over the 4 year life of the project. The project will require $1,423,725 of new equipment that can be sold for 20% of initial cost (consider this an after-tax figure) and will require an investment in net working capital of $87,588. If Hampton has a require return of 6, what is the npv for this project?
(Round Your Answer to the nearest dollar (Ex 123,456 instead of 123.455.68)
Initial investment :-
Cost of new equipment = $ 1,423,725
Add- increase in working capital = $ 87,588
Intial investment = $ 1,423,725 + 87,588 = $ 1,511,313.
After tax salvage value = 20% of initial cost = 20% * 1,423,725 = $ 284,745.
Present value of cash inflows:-
Particulars | year 1 | year 2 | year 3 | year 4 |
OCF | 393,458 | 393,458 | 393,458 | 393,458 |
Salvage value | 284,745 | |||
Recovery of working capitL | 87,588 | |||
Total cash flows | 393,458 | 393,458 | 393,458 | 765,791 |
PV F @6% | 0.9434 | 0.8900 | 0.8396 | 0.7921 |
Present value of cash inflows | 371,188.277 | 350,177.62 | 330,347.337 | 606,583.051 |
Present value of cash inflows = 371,188.277 + 350,177.62 + 330,347.337 + 606,583.051 = $ 1,658,296.29
NPV = present value of cash inflows - initial investment
NPV = 1,658,296.29 - 1,511,313 = $ 146,983.29
