Question

1. Develop a pro forma set of income and cash flow statements for a wind energy plant with the following parameters, and calculate the plant’s NPV, IRR and LCOE:

- Overnight capital costs are $1.2 million, all incurred in Year 0. There is no land acquisition cost assumed here.

- The plant has a salvage value of $200,000 at the end of the plant’s life

- Annual revenues from spot market sales are $400,000.

- Annual operating costs are $30,000.

- The plant qualifies for the same 3-Year MACRS schedule that we used in class.

- The plant faces a 34% tax rate

- There are no accounts payable or receivable, but the plant is assumed to have a cash net working capital requirement of $300,000, beginning in Year 0. This working capital can be liquidated at the end of the final year of operation.

- The lifetime of the plant is 5 years

- The discount rate is 20%

- The plant qualifies for a production subsidy of $200,000 per year for all operating years. A hint here is to model this production subsidy as a revenue source.

- The plant produces 10,000 Megawatt-Hours (MWh) of electricity in each year, Years 1 through 5. (You'll need this to calculate LCOE.)

Explanation / Answer

Solution:-

=$1,200,000 * 33.33%

= $399,960

= (1,200,000 + 3,00,000)

= $1,500,000

= $1,200,000 * 44.45%

= $533,400

= 1,200,000 *  14.81%

= $177,720

= 1,200,000 * 7.41%

= $88,920

= [$6,00,000 - ($30,000 + $399,960 )]

= $170,040

= (170,040 * 34%)

= $57,813.6

=[ 6,00,000 - (30,000 +  533,400 )]

= $36,600

=( 36,600 * 34%)

= $12,444

=[ 6,00,000 - ( 30,000 + 177,720 )]

= $392,280

= (392,280 * 34%)

= $133,375.2

=[ 6,00,000 - (30,000 + 88,920 )]

= $481,080

= (481,080 * 34%)

= $163,567.2

=[ 6,00,000 - ( 30,000 + 0 )]

= $570,000

= 570,000 * 34%

= $193,800.

Present value of cash inflow = profit after tax before depreciation / (1 + r)^n

r = 20%

= 512186.4 / (1+ 20%) ^ 1

= 512186.4 / 1.2

= $4,26,822

= 5,57,556 / (1 + 20% )^2

= 557,556 / 1.44

= $3877191.66

= 43,6624.8 / (1+ 20%) ^3

= 43,6624.8 / 1.728

= $252676.3889

= 4,06,432.8 / (1+20%)^4

= 4,06,432.8 / 2.0736

= $196003.4722

= 808,200 / (1+20%)^5

= 808,200 / 2.48832

= $3214797.4537

= 300,000 + 132000 + 376200

= 808,200

0 Year Profit after tax before depreciation

Present value of cash inflow = profit after tax before depreciation / (1 + r)^n

r = 20%

0. $1,500,000 1. $512186.4

= 512186.4 / (1+ 20%) ^ 1

= 512186.4 / 1.2

= $4,26,822

2. $5,57,556

= 5,57,556 / (1 + 20% )^2

= 557,556 / 1.44

= $3877191.66

3. $43,6624.8

= 43,6624.8 / (1+ 20%) ^3

= 43,6624.8 / 1.728

= $252676.3889

4. $4,06,432.8

= 4,06,432.8 / (1+20%)^4

= 4,06,432.8 / 2.0736

= $196003.4722

5. $808,200

= 808,200 / (1+20%)^5

= 808,200 / 2.48832

= $3214797.4537

Netb present value Sum of present values of cash flow = 87490.7798 NPV is positive so plant should be implemented Profit after tax before depreciation + net proceed from scrap value + recovery of working capital

= 300,000 + 132000 + 376200

= 808,200
