Question

REQUIRED:

  1. How much is the expected cash flow disregarding other simulations? 
  2. How much is the expected value of your investment in machine using Monte Carlo Simulations?
  3. Will you invest in the new released equipment, yes or no? Prove it with your solution/s.
ABC Company is making a decision whether to invest in a new released equipment
for their manufacturing operations. It will cost them P5,000,000 and has a total useful
life of 10 years with a salvage value of P500,000. The expected cash flows from year
1 to year 10 is presented in the table below:

This equipment will also save them from maintenance cost of P10,000 and additional
5% on top of the previous maintenance cost yearly. The company expects at least
500 possible scenarios regarding net cash flows to be realized in the span of 10
years (for consistency, use the random numbers from 1 to 500). The discount rate is
12%.
