ANACOND is a construction company that is thought of creating a new residential block. Noted that the initial investment to buy land and build buildings is amounting to 55 billion. If the project is successful, net income results at the end of the first year amounted to 100 billion and nothing again afterwards. If this project fails, then net income results to be obtained is 20 billion at the end of the first year and 20 billion at the end of the second year. The annual effective interest is 15%. If ANACOND immediately carried out the construction process (they took bill of this project), then the project's chance of success is 50%. Dap- Attention: (a) NPV of this project.
(b) IRR if the project is unsuccessful.
a) Calculation of NPV
Year | Cashflow ($billion) | Present Value Cashflow($billion) |
0 | (55) | ($55) |
1 | 100 |
100/(1+15%)^1 =$86.956 |
NPV = Cashoutflow - Present Value Cashflow | $31.956 |
When project fails
Year | Cashflow $billion | Present Value Cashflow |
0 | (55) | |
1 | 20 | 20/(1+15%)^1 =$17.391 |
2 | 20 |
20/(1+15%)^2 =$15.122 |
Cumulative Present value Cashflow | $32.513 | |
Cash outflow | ($55) | |
NPV | ($22.487) |
Expected NPV = Probability of Success × NPV + Probability of unsuccessful × NPV
= 0.5×$31.956 + 0.5×(-22.486)
=$15.978 - $11.243
=$4.735
b. If Project is Unsuccessful:
Year | Cashflow $billion | Present Value Cashflow |
0 | (55) | |
1 | 20 | 20/(1-19%)^1=$24.69 |
2 | 20 | 20/(1-19%)^2=30.48 |
Cumulative Present value Cashflow | $55.173 | |
NPV = Cashoutflow - Present value Cashflow |
$55.173 - $55 =$0.173 |
IRR= lower Discount rate + positive NPV/ ( Positive NPV - Negative NPV) × difference in rates
Lower discount rate = -19%
Higher Discount rate =15%
Positive NPV@ (-19% discounted rate) = $0.173 billion
Negative NPV@ 15% =($22.486)billion.........refer(a)
IRR = -19%+($0.173/(0.173 -(-$22.48))× (15%-(-19%))
=-19% + 0.173/(0.173+22.48) × (15%+19%)
=-19% + $0.173/ $22.653 × 34%
=-19% + 0.259 = -18.74%
IRR, for unsuccessful project is -18.74%
Negative IRR would means that the total Cashflow after Investment are less than Initial Investment.
