What is the net present value of an investment that costs you $10,000 today (at 2% interest) and pays you a net return of $1000 for the next twelve years?
Present value of inflows=cash inflow*Present value of discounting factor(rate%,time period)
=1000/1.02+1000/1.02^2+1000/1.02^3+1000/1.02^4+1000/1.02^5+1000/1.02^6+1000/1.02^7+1000/1.02^8+1000/1.02^9+1000/1.02^10+1000/1.02^11+1000/1.02^12
=10575.34
NPV=Present value of inflows-Present value of outflows
=10575.34-10,000
=$575.34(Approx)
