A project requires an investment of $15,000 today and it is expected to generate free cash flows of $5,000 per year for the next four years. The company's weighted average cost of capital is 10.1% per year. What is the project's equivalent annual annuity? 1) $282.3 2) $233.7 3) $269.2 4) $257.7 5) $207.4
A new D8 will cost you $600,000. You estimate maintenance to be $14,000 at the end of each year (including year of sale), but major repairs at the end of year 4 will cost an additional $15,000. The machine will be sold for an estimated $300,000 at the end of year 5. Calculate the annual cost of this investment at a 10% compound interest rate. Your solution must be accompanied by a sketch of the cash flow diagram.
A project is expected to cost $4 million today and generate a net after-tax cash flow of $600,000 at the end of year 1 and $500,000 at the end of year 2. The net cash flows from year 2 onwards are expected to grow at 6% per annum forever. If the project’s discount rate is 12%, calculate the net present value of the project. Show all calculations.
