Answer 1

Answer : NPV = $161,615.33

Explanation :

Depreciation per year = ($2,370,000 / 3 years) = $790,000.

Tax shield on depreciation = Depreciation per year * tax rate = $790,000 * 24 % = $189,600

Net income after tax = Sales - Costs = ($1,755,000 - $665,000) * (1- 0.24) = $828,400.

Annual Operating Cash flow = Net income after tax + tax shield on depreciation

= $828,400 + $189,600 = $1,018,000

Calculation of NPV

= Fixed assets costs - (Operating Cash flow* PVIFA _{10%,3 years})     

= $2,370,000 - ($1,018,000 * 2.48685199098)

= $2,370,000 - $2,531,615.33

= $161,615.33
