(NPV with varying required rates of return) Gubanich Sportswear is considering building a new factory to produce aluminum baseball bats. This project would require an initial cash outlay of $4,000,000 and would generate annual free cash inflows of $1,000,000 per year for 7 years. Calculate the project's NPV given:
a. A required rate of return of 9 percent
b. A required rate of return of 11 percent
c. A required rate of return of 15 percent
d. A required rate of return of 16 percent
NPV = Rt / ( 1 + i)t , t varies from 1 to n
where
Rt = Cash flow netted (Inflow - Outflow) during the period "t"
i = Discount rate
t = number of periods
Hence, we can use the above formula to construct following table:
