A project has a service life of five years with the initial investment outlay of $200,000. If the discounted payback period occurs at the end of the project service life (say five years) at an interest rate of 10%, which of the following statements is true?
A-The discounted payback period occurs at the end of project service life.
B-The NPV of the project may equal or be greater than 0.
C-We should invest in the project
D-All of the above.
If payback is five year Then present worth of future cash flow is equal to 200000 or greater than 200000 so NPW is 0 or positive
We can invest in this project as NPW is not negative
NPW = 0 in worst case scenario
So correct option is D. ALL of the above

You are considering a project that will require an initial outlay of $200,000. This project has an expected life of four years and will generate after-tax cash flows to the company as a whole of $60,000 at the end of each year over its five-year life. Thus, the free cash flows associated with this project look like this: Year Free Cash Flow 0 -150,000 1 60,000 2 60,000 3 60,000 4 60,000 Given a required rate of return of 10%...
Given the following attributes of an investment project with a five-year life: investment outlay, year 0, $8,700; after-tax cash inflows, year 1, $930; year 2, $1,070; year 3, $3,200; year 4, $3,500; and year 5, $4,900. (a) Use the built-in NPV function of Excel to estimate the NPV of this project. Assume an after-tax discount rate of 11.0% (b) Estimate the payback period, in years, for this project under the assumption that cash inflows occur evenly throughout the year. (Round...
you are considering a project with an initial cash outlay of $74,000 and expected cash flows of $23,680 at the end of each year for six years. the discount rate for the project is 9.7 percent. a. what are the project's payback discounted payback periods? - if the discount rate for this project is 9.7 percent, the discounted payback period of the project is how many years? b. what is the projects NPV? c. what is the project's PI? d....
You are considering a project that will require an initial outlay of $400,000. This project has an expected life of four years and will generate after-tax cash flows to the company as a whole of $120,000 at the end of each year over its five-year life. Thus, the free cash flows associated with this project look like this: Year Free Cash Flow 0 -150,000 1 120,000 2 120,000 3 120,000 4 120,000 Given a required rate of return of 20%...

you are considering a project with an initial cash outlay of $100,000 and expected free cash flow of $50,000 at the end of each year for 3 years. the required rate of return for this project is 10 percent. a. What is the project's conventional payback periods? b. What is the project's discounted payback period? c. what is the project's NPV? d. what is the project's PI? e. what is the project's IRR?
Do in Excel. Southwest Products Company is considering a project to invest. The initial investment is $15 million and the life of the project is 7 years. Its revenue per year is $10 million and cost of goods sold is 50% of revenue. The project will be depreciated by using the 7-year MACRS depreciation rate. The company’s tax rate 35% and cost of capital is 12%. Calculate payback period, discounted payback period, NPV, IRR, PI and MIRR for the project.

I could use some help with the problem below: A project requires an initial outlay of $50,000,000. The project life is determined to be 5 years at which time it will be discontinued and sold for scrap at $5,000,000. The project will generate net cash in-flows of $20,000,000 every year for the next five years. The projects required rate or discount rat is 11.25% 1. What is the projects Payback period? 2. What is the projects NPV? 3. What is...
Given the following attributes of an investment project with a five-year life: investment outlay. year 0 $5,000; after-tax cash inflows. year 1, $800; year 2, $900; year 3, $1,500; year 4, $1,800; and year 5 $3,200.
