A project that costs $1,900 to install will provide annual cash flows of $500 for the next 5 years. The firm accepts projects with payback periods of less than 4 years. a. What is this project's payback period?
b. Will the project be accepted?
Yes
No
c. What is project NPV if the discount rate is 4%?

A. 3.8 YEARS

B YES

C $325.91

Explanation:

Payback period is the amount of time it takes to recover the amount invested in a project from its cumulative cash flows.

payback period = amount invested / cash flows

$1,900 / $500 = 3.8 years

the project should be accepted because the payback period is less than the maximum acceptable year

Net present value is the present value of after tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.

NPV can be calculated using a financial calculator

cash flow in year 0 = $-1900

cash flow each year from year 1 to 5 = $500

I = 4%

NPV = $325.91

To find the NPV using a financial calculator:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. after inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.  

3. Press compute
