Net Present Value of Payouts The NPV of a series of values is calculated using a discount rate applied to those values. Apply the NPV function to the series of expected benefit payouts using .075 as the discount rate. You can hard-code the discount rate. How would you calculate this in Excel? Please show calculation and logic used in excel, so I understand. Below are the values:
