The crossover rate of the two projects’ NPV profiles is 9 percent. What is the cash flow for Project B at t = 3?
(Ans: 5.79 million)
We know, cross over rate is the rate where the NPV for both the alternative is equal. NPV is the present value of future cashflows discounted at the required rate of return. | |||
Calculation of NPV of Project A | |||
(Amount in million$) | |||
Year | Cashflow | Discounting factor @ 9% | PV of cashflows |
0 | -4 | 1 | -4.00 |
1 | 2 | 0.917431193 | 1.83 |
2 | 3 | 0.841679993 | 2.53 |
3 | 5 | 0.77218348 | 3.86 |
NPV | 4.22 | ||
Calculation of NPV of Project B | |||
(Amount in million$) | |||
Year | Cashflow | Discounting factor @ 9% | PV of cashflows |
0 | -4.5 | 1 | -4.50 |
1 | 1.7 | 0.917431193 | 1.56 |
2 | 3.2 | 0.841679993 | 2.69 |
3 | x | 0.77218348 | 0.77x |
NPV | -0.25+0.77x | ||
Let the cashflow in year 3 for project B be x | |||
As the NPV are equal at cross over rates, therefore equating the equation we get, | |||
-0.25+0.77x=4.22 | |||
0.77x=4.47 | |||
x= 5.80 | |||
Therefore, cashflow for Project B at t=3 is $5.80 millions | |||

A company is considering two mutually exclusive expansion projects. Plan A requires a 21 million expenditure on a large scale integrated plant that would provide expected cash flows of $6.40 million per year for 6 years. Plan B requires a $7 million expenditure to build a somewhat less efficient, more labor-intensive plant with expected cash flows of $2.72 million per year for 6 years. The firm’s WACC is 10%.
