A project has an initial cost of $300,000, expected net cash inflows of $67,500 per year for 7 years, and a cost of capital of 11%. What is the project's NPV? What is the IRR and the PI? What is the payback period?
1) Statement showing NPV
| Year | Cash flow | PVIF @ 11% | PV |
| 0 | -300000 | 1 | -300000 |
| 1 | 67500 | 0.9009 | 60811 |
| 2 | 67500 | 0.8116 | 54785 |
| 3 | 67500 | 0.7312 | 49355 |
| 4 | 67500 | 0.6587 | 44464 |
| 5 | 67500 | 0.5935 | 40058 |
| 6 | 67500 | 0.5346 | 36088 |
| 7 | 67500 | 0.4817 | 32512 |
| NPV | 18073 | ||
2) IIR is the rate at which NPV is 0,
let us assume rate to be 13%
Statement showing NPV
| Year | Cash flow | PVIF @ 11% | PV |
| 0 | -300000 | 1.0000 | -300000 |
| 1 | 67500 | 0.8850 | 59735 |
| 2 | 67500 | 0.7831 | 52862 |
| 3 | 67500 | 0.6931 | 46781 |
| 4 | 67500 | 0.6133 | 41399 |
| 5 | 67500 | 0.5428 | 36636 |
| 6 | 67500 | 0.4803 | 32422 |
| 7 | 67500 | 0.4251 | 28692 |
| NPV | -1474 | ||
Now assume assume rate to be 12%
statement showing NPV
| Year | Cash flow | PVIF @ 11% | PV |
| 0 | -300000 | 1.0000 | -300000 |
| 1 | 67500 | 0.8929 | 60268 |
| 2 | 67500 | 0.7972 | 53811 |
| 3 | 67500 | 0.7118 | 48045 |
| 4 | 67500 | 0.6355 | 42897 |
| 5 | 67500 | 0.5674 | 38301 |
| 6 | 67500 | 0.5066 | 34198 |
| 7 | 67500 | 0.4523 | 30534 |
| NPV | 8054 | ||
using interpolation method we can find IRR
| R | NPV |
| 12% | 8,054 |
| 13% | -1,474 |
| 1% up | 9,528 |
| ? | 8,054 |
=8054/9528
=0.85%
Thus IRR = 12+0.85 = 12.85%
3) PI = PV of cash Inflow/PV of cash outflow
=318073/300000
=1.06
4) Payback period = Investment/Cash flow
=300000/67500
=4.44 years
