Given the initial investment in a factory processing equipment as Ghc500,037. Let the
opportunity cost of capital for the industry be 10% p.a. Assuming that the equipment is capable
of generating an after-tax returns of Ghc115,000 for the first 5 years and Ghc65000 for the 6th
year and Ghc53400 for the 7th year.
Find the Net Present Value (NPV)
Determine the Internal Rate of Return
Identify three ways in which the Net Present value is superior to the Internal Rate of
return as investment criteria
I am considering a geographic expansion into the European market for Canopy Pharmaceuticals. Below are the incremental cash flows for the Canopy project for you to use in your analysis. Assume Canopy's marginal tax rate is 35%, their cost of capital is 15.7 % and an expected growth rate of 5% after 2003.
Calculate the free cash flows for 1998 – 2003.
Calculate the terminal value of the Canopy project in 2003 and the adjusted free cash flow value for 2003.
Calculate the NPV, the IRR and the payback period for the Canopy project and recommend whether Canopy should go forward with the expansion project or not.
What is the NPV of project D? Assume that the firm requires a minimum after-tax return of 8% on investment.
Project D costs $5,000 and will generate sales of $4,000 each year for 5 years. The cash expenditures will be $1,500 per year. The firm uses straight-line depreciation with an estimated salvage value of $500 and has a tax rate of 25%.
(2) What is the book rate of return based on the average book value? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

- Suppose the multinational Milton Asset Extraction (MAX) is considering an overseas project in a country with substantial political risk. MAX predicts that the project will yield USD100 million each year for two years. The initial cost of the project is USD145 million.
