Bill Clinton reportedly was paid $10 million to write his book My Way.

The book took three


years to write. In the time he spent writing, Clinton could have been paid to make speeches.
Given his popularity, assume that he could earn $8 million per year (paid at the end of the year)
speaking instead of writing. Assume his cost of capital is 10% per year.

What is the NPV of agreeing to write the book (ignoring any royalty payments)?

Assume that, once the book is finished, it is expected to generate royalties of $5 million in the
first year (paid at the end of the year) and these royalties are expected to decrease at a rate
of 30% per year in perpetuity. What is the NPV of the book with the royalty payments?

FastTrack Bikes, Inc. is thinking of developing a new composite road bike. Development will
take six years and the cost is $200,000 per year. Once in production, the bike is expected to make
$300,000 per year for 10 years. Assume the cost of capital is 10%.

Calculate the NPV of this investment opportunity, assuming all cash flows occur at the end
of each year. Should the company make the investment?

You own a coal mining company and are considering opening a new mine. The mine itself will
cost $120 million to open. If this money is spent immediately, the mine will generate $20 million
for the next 10 years. After that, the coal will run out and the site must be cleaned and
maintained at environmental standards. The cleaning and maintenance are expected to cost $2
million per year in perpetuity. What does the IRR rule say about whether you should accept this
opportunity? If the cost of capital is 8%, what does the NPV rule say?

In the NPV calculation whenever a perpetuity starts at T+X we need to calculate


the perpetuity at the time it starts and then go back to the present value at time
zero.
