Current Plan:
Annual Cost = Staff Salary + Other Cost
= ($200,000 x 8) + ($100,000 x 8) = $2,400,000
Net Present Value = $2,400,000 x 6.145 = $14,748,000
New Proposed Plan:
Initial investment = Building cost + Helicopter & Other
equipment + Demolition cost – Salvage value of current
equipment
= (200,000 x 4) + (500,000 x 4) + (10,000 x 8) – (60,000 x 8) =
$2,400,000
Annual cost = Staff Salary + Other Cost
= (300,000 x 4) + (110,000 x 4) = $1,640,000
Net Present Value = ($1,640,000 x 6.145) – (-2,400,000) = $12,477,800
NPV of incremental cost = NPV of new plan – NPV of
current plan
= $12,477,800 - $14,748,000 = -2,270,200
NPV of incremental cost is negative, the new plan should be selected
