Prepare the financial section of a business case for the Cloud-Computing Case that is listed above this assignment in Canvas. Assume that this project will take eight months to complete (in Year 0) and will cost $600,000. The costs to implement some of the technologies will be $300,000 for year one and $200,000 for years two and three. Estimated benefits will start in year 1 at$400,000 and will be $600,000 for years 2 and 3. There is no benefit in year 0. Use the business case spreadsheet template (business_case_financials.xls) template provided below this assignment in Canvas to calculate the NPV, ROI, and the year in which payback occurs. Assume a 7 percent discount rate for the template. notes* Payback occurs in the first year that there is a positive value for cumulative benefits - costs. (*Negative values are presented in parenthesis) Financial Analysis for Project Name Created by: Date: Note: Change the inputs, shown in green below (i.e. interest rate, number of years, costs, and benefits). Be sure to double-check the formulas based on the inputs.
