Project S has the highest NPV ($344,038), Campbell Project S, as Industries should accept it provides
the most value
NPV = Σ - Ct / (1+r)t - Co
Where,
Co = Initial investment
t = Year (1406)
NPVs for each project are:
NPV Comparison:
Project Beta ($186,864) bas a highest NPV than Project Alpha ($155,720)
A higher NPV indicates that Project Beta will generate mare value for the company in present terms.
Both projects have the same discount rate (8%) and duration (6years)
However, Project Beta's plarger cash. inflow lead to a greater present value of total cash flows,
making it more attractive financially. The decision then primarily depends on. which project provides
the highest return, which in this case is Project Beta
(ii) Calculate the present value of Project Alpha if the discount rate is increased to 10%. How does
this change affect the investment decision?
PV= Ct / (1+r)t
t= Year (1406)
Cash flows
NPV = 1,088,815-1,000,000
NPV = 88,815
NPV = Σ Ct / (1+IRR)t - Co = 0
where
Co = Initial investment
Project Alpha
- 1000000 + 250000 / ((1 + TRR) ^ 4) + 250000 / ((1 + TRR) ^ 2) + 250,000 / (1+ PRR )^ 3 + 250,000 /
(1+ PRR)^ 4 + 250,000 (1+ PRR)^ 5 + 250000 / (1+ IRR)^6 = 0
Project Beta
However, the NPV method suggests. Project Beta ($186, 864) is more valuable. than Project Alpha
($155,720).
•Project Beta remains the better choice because it offers a higher total return.
