Assume an investment has cash flows of -$42,100, $22,650, $18,950, and $12,100 for Years 0 to 3, respectively. What is the NPV if the required return is 15.6 percent? Should the project be accepted or rejected? Multiple Choice -$493.30; reject -$1,084.22; reject $1,084.22; accept $1,210.80; accept $493.30; accept
Answer is -493.30 : reject.
NPV = Present value of cash inflows - Initial investment
Initial investment = - $ 42,100
Cash inflows
year 1 = $ 22,650
year 2 = $18.950
year 3 = $ 12,100
Present value of cash inflows :-
Years | CF | [email protected]% | PV of CF |
1 | 22,650 | 0.8650519 | 19593.43 |
2 | 18950 | 0.7483148 | 14180.57 |
3 | 12100 | 0.64733114 | 7832.707 |
PV of Cash inflows | 41606.698 |
NPV = $ 41,606.698 - 42,100 = - $ 493.302
Here NPV is negative so, we Reject the project
Here Option A is correct.
