If yes, then will it be use in the NPV calculation as in initial cost?

Expert Solution

Feasibility expenditure (expense) is a sunk cost. It's already incurred, can't be recovered, and is no longer dependent upon the decision of go or no go. Hence, it's treated as a sunk cost and irrelevant cost.

Since it's a sunk cost and irrelevant cash flow, the same wil not be used in the NPV calculation as initial cost.
