1.

Consider the Following 10-year project:
Year	Cash Flow
0	-30000
1	2500
2	5000
3	6750
4	7000
5	7250
6	6000
7	6250
8	8000
9	3750
10	2000

Complete the following questions on excel:

What is the Payback Period for the project?
What is the Discounted Payback Period for the project at 12% required rate of return?
What is the NPV of the project if the required rate of return is 12%
What is the PI of the project?
What is the IRR of the project?

Expert Solution

Project
Year	Cash flow stream	Cumulative cash flow
0	-30000	-30000
1	2500	-27500
2	50000	22500
3	6750	29250
4	7000	36250
5	7250	43500
6	6000	49500
7	6250	55750
8	8000	63750
9	3750	67500
10	2000	69500

Payback period is the time by which undiscounted cashflow cover the intial investment outlay
this is happening between year 1 and 2
therefore by interpolation payback period = 1 + (0-(-27500))/(22500-(-27500))

Discounted payback period is the time by which discounted cashflow cover the intial investment outlay
this is happening between year 1 and 2
therefore by interpolation payback period = 1 + (0-(-27767.86))/(12091.84-(-27767.86))

Where
Discounting factor =(1 + discount rate)^(corresponding year)
Discounted Cashflow=Cash flow stream/discounting factor
