Consider the following investment that has these cash flows and net present value. Using the above information, what is the break even cash flow for year 0, year 1, and what is the pre-discounted value?
Year | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 |
Chase flow | -$16,775 | $4575 | $5500 | $9180 |
Discount rate | 6.50% | |||
PV factor | 1 | .93897 | .88166 | .82785 |
NPV: | -$30.44 |
Initial investment = $ 16,775
In order to get breakeven at year 1, discounted cash flow for year1 should be equal to initial investment amount.
Discounted cash flow for year 1 = $ 16,775
Pre-discounted value of cash flow in year 1 = Initial investment/PV factor for year 1
= $ 16,775/0.93897
= $ 17,865.3205108 or $ 17,865.32
