1. Net present value (NPV) Evaluating cash flows with the NPV method The net present value (NPV) rule is considered one of the most common and preferred criteria that generally lead to good investment decisions. Consider this case: Suppose Cold Goose Metal Works Inc. is evaluating a proposed capital budgeting project (project Beta) that will require an initial investment of $2,225,000. The project is expected to generate the following net cash flows: Year Cash Flow Year 1 $375,000 Year 2 $500,000 Year 3 $475,000 Year 4 $500,000 Cold Goose Metal Works Inc.’s weighted average cost of capital is 10%, and project Beta has the same risk as the firm’s average project. Based on the cash flows, what is project Beta’s NPV? -$2,997,487 -$297,487 -$888,360 -$772,487 Making the accept or reject decision Cold Goose Metal Works Inc.’s decision to accept or reject project Beta is independent of its decisions on other projects.

Question 1 (at home, to practice) You have been asked by Transport for London Ltd. to design a new and more efficient component for the signaling system of the London Underground. The engineers and other experts you consulted have come up with four possible projects for its production. All costs and revenues for the two possibilities are represented by the patterns of after-tax cash flows as follow (assume no uncertainty): Projects Initial investment Cash flow Cash flow Cash flow Cash flow Cash flow Year A. B. 012345 A Air wir Nó -9 2 2.5 3.5 4 B 9453 -9 3.5 2.5 C -9 ن من من من من 3 3 3 D -9 0.7 0.7 0.7 0.7 forever For all projects, the appropriate cost of capital is 6%. Calculate the Net Present Value for each project using the most appropriate formulae. [Practice using Excel for your calculations, although of course for the exam you will not have Excel!]. Which project would you choose and why? Project D seems the best project because it generates positive cash flows forever. Do your…
