1. operating cash flow=
1 2 3

Less:
Variale cost 6000000 9000000 4800000
Fixed cost 50000 50000 50000
Depreciation 1366667 1366667 1366667
cash flow 83333 2708333 183333
Less tax 33333.2 1083333.2 73333.2
cash flow 49999.8 1624999.8 109999.8
net cash flow 1416666.8 2991666.8 1476666.8
2.NPV
1 2 3
Net inflow 1416666.8*0.885 2991666.8 *.783 1476666.8*.693
Total inflow =year 1 +year2+year3
=4619555.3148
NPV=4619555.3148-4535000=84555
IRR 14.08%

6.pabyback period=
cumulative inflows
1. 1416666.8
2. 4408333.6
3. 5885000.4
payback=2 year+[(4535000-4408333.6)/1476666.8]*12=2year 1 month
no..
