Traction Trailers is tentative about projects that have a positive net present value but the returns occur in the later years that are hard to estimate. They have a proposed project costing $325,000 that returns the following cash flows: Year 1 $100,000 Year 2 $200,000 Year 3 $300,000 Year 4 $150,000 Year 5 $150,000 Year 6 $100,000 What is the payback period in years rounded to two decimals?

The cash flow diagram below shows the net cash generated (A) every year with initial (1) investment requirement for a certain project whose lifetime is n=8 years with negligible (i.e. zero) salvage value at end of life. It is known that a simple payback period is three (3) years. What is the implied minimum acceptable rate of return (MARR) given this information? A >H I yrs.
A project that costs $2,300 to install will provide annual cash flows of $730 for each of the next 5 years. a. Calculate the NPV if the opportunity cost of capital is 12%? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) NPV b. Is this project worth pursuing? Yes O No c. What is the project's internal rate of return IRR? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) %24
You are trying to value the following project for your company. You know that the project will generate free cash flows in perpetuity that will grow at a constant annual rate of 1.5% after year 3. The applicable interest rate for this project is 7.5%. What is the NPV of this project? Express your result in $-millions and round to two decimals (do not include the $-symbol in your answer). If you calculate a negative NPV enter a negative number. Year Free Cash Flows Free Cash Flow Forecasts (in $-millions) 0 -130 Year 1 -1 2 3 24 37
Diana, Industries is considering a project which has the following cash flows: Year Cash Flow 0 ? 1 $4,000 2 4,000 3 3,000 4 1,500 The project has a payback period of 2.5 years. The firm’s cost of capital is 12 percent. What is the project’s net present value (NPV)? What does the NPV rule advice regarding this investment opportunity?
A long term efficiency project will cost $837 today but will not yield any return for for 3 years (Cashflows at time (1) and (2) = 0). At time (3), the project will yield a positive cashflow of $1,079. What is the efficiency project's internal rate of return?
Explain well with proper answer.
What information does the payback period provide? Suppose you are evaluating a project with the expected future cash inflows shown in the following table. Your boss has asked you to calculate the project's net present value (NPV). You don't know the project's initial cost, but you do know the project's regular, or conventional, payback period is 2.50 years. If the project's weighted average cost of capital (WACC) is 9%, the project's NPV (rounded to the nearest dollar) is: $355,048 $287,420 $405,769 $338,141 Which of the following statements indicate a disadvantage of using the regular payback period (not the discounted payback period) for capital budgeting decisions? Check all that apply. The payback period does not take the time value of money into account. The payback period is calculated using net income instead of cash flows. The payback period does not take the project's entire life into account.
June.com is considering two projects given below: if the two projects have the same payback period, what would be project 2’s internal rate of return (IRR)? (Hint: you need to find project 1’s payback and find project 2 cashflow at year 0 using project 1’s payback period). Year Project 1 Project 2 Cash Flow Cash Flow cumulative cash flow 0 -$100 ? 1 30 40 -$70 2 50 80 -$20 3 40 60 $20 4 50 60 $70

1. Calculate the net present value of a project which requires an initial investment of OMR 300,000 and it is expected to generate a cash inflow of OMR 60,000 each month for 12 months. Assume that the salvage value of the project is zero. The target rate of return is 12% per annum. Write any formula that you will use first. Is this even or uneven cash flow? What is your opinion about the project? Justify your answer. 2. You as a project manager were asked to develop an Inventory Control Management Information System. Apply the SWOT analysis mind mapping technique.
Use the following information to answer questions 11-15: A firm evaluates a project with the following cash flows. The firm has a 2 year payback period criteria and a required return of 17 percent. Year Cash flow (OMR) |-39,000 28,000 19,000 14,000 -12,000 10,000 4 11. What is the net present value for the project?
Suppose you are evaluating a project with the cash inflows shown in the following table. Your boss has asked you to calculate the project's net present value (NPV). You don't know the project's initial cost, but you do know the project's regular, or conventional, payback period is 2.5 years. The project's annual cash flows are: Year Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4 Cash Flow $325,000 400,000 300,000 350,000 If the project's desired rate of return is 9.00%, the project's NPV is . (Hint: Round your calculations to the nearest dollar.)
