A project is expected to generate a cash flow of £250 at the end of each of three consecutive years, as illustrated below: End of year 1 2 3 Cash flow £250 £250 £250 The project manager uses a discount rate of 10% to evaluate the project. Which of the following statements is/are incorrect? a. Economic capital at the start of year 1 (K0) equals £621.7 (rounded to one decimal). b. If all cash flows were distributed when received (i.e. if payout was 100%), economic income in year 2 (Y2) would equal £62.2 (rounded to one decimal). c. If the project manager did not distribute any of the project cash flows (i.e. if payout was 0%), the project’s economic capital would not depreciate during year 1. d. If the project manager distributed all of the project cash flows (i.e. if payout was 100%), the project’s economic capital would depreciate over time.
