5.

Gold Mining, Inc. is using the profitability index (PI) when evaluating projects. Gold Mining’s cost of capital is 6.46 percent. What is the PI of a project if the initial costs are $2,072,340 and the project life is estimated as 5 years? The project will produce the same after-tax cash inflows of $662,495 per year at the end of the year.

Round the answer to two decimal places.

Your Answer:

Explanation / Answer

Q. 4. Calculation of NPV = P.V. of cash inflow - P.V. of cash outflow

= 455119.18(NOTE 1) - 452077

= $ 3042.18 (approx) i.e., $ 3042 (Rounded off)

(NOTE 1) P.V. of Cash inflow:-

Q. 5. Profitability Index = P.V. of cash inflow / P.V. of cash ouflow

= 2755979 / 2072340

= 1.33 (approx)

(NOTE 2):- P.V. of Cash inflow

= 662495 * 4.160 (Cumulative P.V. factor @ 6.46% for 5 Years)

= $ 2755979

Q. 2. Calculation of IRR :-

   At 5 %, we calculate P. V. of Cash inflow:-   

At 10%, we calculate P.V. of Cash inflow:-

IRR = 5 + (10 - 5) * (471194 - 468900) / (471194 - 423697) * [ By using interpolation]

= 5 + 5 * 2294 / 47497

= 5 + 11470 / 47497

= 5 + 0.24 = 5.24 %

Q. 3. The after-tax cost of capital for debt financing (Kd) =

   Interest (1 - t) + ( Redemption value - Net proceeds) / maturity period * 100

   (Redemption value + Net proceeds) / 2

   = 1000 * 10.81% * ( 1 - 0.40) + ( 1000 - 975) / 27   * 100

(1000 + 975) / 2

= 64.86 + 0.926 / 987.5

= 65.786 * 100 / 987.5

= 6.66 %

Year Cash inflow PV Factor @ 8.93% P.V. of Cash inflow 1 122575 0.918 112523.85 2 72326 0.842 60898.492 3 184923 0.774 143130.402 4 195164 0.710 138566.44 455119.18 (approx)
