You are offered the chance to participate in a project that produces the following cash flows:
C0 | C1 | C2 | ||||||||||||
+ | $ | 5,900 | + | $ | 4,450 | − | $ | 12,800 | ||||||
The internal rate of return is 14.3%.
a. If the opportunity cost of capital is 13%, what is the net present value of the project? (Negative amount should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
b. Will you accept the offer?
Present value of inflows=cash inflow*Present value of discounting factor(rate%,time period)
=5900+4450/1.13
=9838.05
Present value of outflows=12800/1.13^2
=10024.28
NPV=Present value of inflows-Present value of outflows
=9838.05-10024.28
=$-186.22(Approx)(Negative)
Hence since NPV is negative;offer must not be accepted
