Buena Vision Clinic is considering an investment that requires an outlay of 600,000 and promises a net cash inflow one year from now of 810,000. Assume the cost of capital is 10 percent. Required: 1. Break the 810,000 future cash inflow into three components: a. The return of the original investment b. The cost of capital c. The profit earned on the investment 2. Now, compute the present value of the profit earned on the investment. 3. Compute the NPV of the investment. Compare this with the present value of the profit computed in Requirement 2.

We are examining a new project. We expect to sell 5,400 units per year at $68 net cash flow apiece for the next 10 years. In other words, the annual operating cash flow is projected to be $68 x 5,400 = $367,200. The relevant discount rate is 18 percent, and the initial investment required is $1,530,000. What is the base-case NPV? (Do not round Intermedlate calculations and round a. your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) After the first year, the project can be dismantled and sold for $1.250,000.

What is the NPV of a project that costs $14,000 today and another $6,000 in one year, and is then expected to generate 12 annual cash inflows of $2,000 starting at the end of year 5. Cost of capital is 9%. Round to the nearest cent. [Hint: There are two outflows here, today and year 1. You will need to discount the year 1 cost at the project's discount rate when calculating PV(outflows).] Numeric Answer:
