Calculate the NPV at 9% and the IRR for the following projects: An initial outlay of $69,724 and an inflow of 15,000 followed by four consecutive inflows of $17,000
Year | Cashflow | PVF@9% | Cashflow*PVF |
0 | (69,724) | 1 | (69,724.00) |
1 | 15,000 | 0.9174 | 13,761.47 |
2 | 17,000 | 0.8417 | 14,308.56 |
3 | 17,000 | 0.7722 | 13,127.12 |
4 | 17,000 | 0.7084 | 12,043.23 |
5 | 17,000 | 0.6499 | 11,048.83 |
NPV = Cashflow*PVF
= -5434.79
IRR is the rate at which NPV =0. IRR is calculated using trial and error method
Since NPV at 9% is negative take a lower rate say 8%.
Year | Cashflow | PVF@9% | Cashflow*PVF |
0 | (69,724) | 1 | (69,724.00) |
1 | 15,000 | 0.9259 | 13,888.89 |
2 | 17,000 | 0.8573 | 14,574.76 |
3 | 17,000 | 0.7938 | 13,495.15 |
4 | 17,000 | 0.7350 | 12,495.51 |
5 | 17,000 | 0.6806 | 11,569.91 |
NPV = Cashflow*PVF
= -3699.78
IRR = R1+(NPV1*(R2-R1))/(NPV1-NPV2)
= 8+(-3699.78*(9-8))/(-3699.78+5434.79)
= 8+(-3699.78)/1735.01
= 5.87%
= 6%
