Need the NPV for a proposed business expansion project with the
following financial data.
- 50,000 for new equipment (depreciated over 3-year MACRS)
- no salvage value, and no additional income after 4 years.
- 5,000 increase in net working capital. (this will be recovered at
the end of four years)
- operating cost are 60% of annual sales.
- projected increases in sales
Year 1 - 30,000 Year 2 - 35,000 Year 3 - 45,000 Year 4 - 40,000
- 40% tax rate
- 10% WACC.
- a rental property will be used for the expansion, this property is
an existing asset of the business, they currently lease it out for
$3,000/y (before tax) (being paid at the end of the year). This
rental income will no longer be coming in if the proposed expansion is
undertaken.
An explanation of the steps used to solve would be appreciated.

Total PV of inflow 39,098
Work Cap -5,000
Equipment -50,000
PV of W Cap recov 3,415 (5,000 * 0.683 PV factor for Year 4)
Total -12,487
Hence the NPV of the project = - 12,487
NPV is 10% per year compounded annually.
So in Year one PV is = 1/1.10 = 0.909
Year 2 = 1/1.10*1.10 = 0.82
etc etc
In other words if you have 0.82 today and invested @ 10% per year you
will get $1 at the end of year 2 = 0.82 * 1.1 * 1.1 = 1
I will answer your question about the present value factor if you will
allow me to present it as the official answer to the question.
Is that OK?
Sincerely,
Wonko
Can you explain why the PV Factor is changed from year to year? I
thought that it would be 10% across the board?
Thanks
I will allow nh786 the opportunity to respond. If I do not hear back
by tomorrow morning I will get back with you.
Thanks
