Question 21 Input area:

*The NPV index is defined as the ratio of NPV to cost.

Output area:

Since the NPV index has the cost subtracted in the numerator, NPV index = PI - 1.

Question 22 Input area:

Annual cost Required return Pays # of years

I R C N

Output area:

To have a payback equal to the project's life, given C is a constant cash flow for N years, C = I/N To have a positive NPV, I < C(PVIFAR%,N). Thus, C > I / (PVIFAR%,N) Benefits = C (PVIFAR%,N) = 2 costs = 2I C = 2I / (PVIFAR%,N)

Given the six year payback, the worst case is the payback occurs at the end of the seventh year. Thus, Worst-case NPV $ (396,499.17) The best case has infinite cash flows beyond the payback point. Thus, the best-case NPV is infinite.

The cash flows for the project are unconventional. Since the initial cash flow is positive and t remaining cash flows are negative, the decision rule for IRR in invalid in this case. The NPV is upward sloping, indicating that the project is more valuable when the interest rate increase

ial cash flow is positive and the nvalid in this case. The NPV profile hen the interest rate increases.

It is possible that the cash flows do not have an IRR. That is the case here. There is no real root to the IRR equation.
