Multiple Choice

$(151,658)

$11,000

$(44,847)

Initial investment $ 670,000 Working capital $ 61,000 Annual cash flow $ 227,000 per year Salvage value at the end of the project $ 20,000 Expected life of the project 3 years Discount rate 10 %

Explanation / Answer

Net present value :

Net present value = Present value of cash inflow-present value of cash outflow

                          = (227000*2.487+20000*0.751+61000*.751)-(670000+61000*1)

Net present value = (105620)
