Assume a postaudit showed that all estimates (including total sales) were exactly correct except for the variable expense ratio, which actually turned out to be 50%. What was the project’s actual net present value? (Negative amount should be indicated by a minus sign. Round discount factor(s) to 3 decimal places, intermediate calculations and final answer to the nearest whole dollar amount.)

[The following information applies to the questions displayed below.]

Explanation / Answer

1). Depreciation expense is a noncash item and it will not impact the cash flows of the project.

2). Annual net cash inflows = Operating Income + Dep.
= $465000 +$569000 = $1,034,000
b). Discounting Factor = 12%
Life of project = 5 years
Present value of cash inflows = Annual cash inflows * PVAF 12% 5 years
PV = $1034000 * 3.6047
PV = $3,727,259.8        or       $3,727,260 approx.

3). NPV = PV of cash inflows - Initial investment
NPV = $3,727,260 - $2,845,000
NPV = $882,260

5). Profitability Index = PV of future cash flows / Initial Investment
PI = $3727260 / 2845000 = 1.31

6). IRR is where NPV is zero means PV of Future cash flows = Initial Investment
By using above formula Present value annuity factor is calculated then that factor is to be used in PVAF table to find nearest value and % rate of that value in 5years.
For exact calculations Excel formula can be used.
IRR will be = 23.89%

7). Payback Period = Initial Investment / Annual cash inflow
= 2845000 / 1034000 = 2.75 years

8). Simple rate of return = Annual Operating Income / Initial Investment
= 465000 / 2845000 = 16.34%
