c. What is the present value at 24 percent? (Do not round intermediate calculations e.g., 32.16.) and round your answer to 2 decimal places,

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Cash flow is 530 , 690 , 875 and 1090 in 1st to 4 th year respectively

discount rate = 10 %

NPV = 530/ 1.10 + 690 / (1.10)² + 875/(1.10)³ + 1090/ (1.10)⁴

= (530x1.10³ + 690 x 1.10² + 875x 1.10 + 1090)/ 1.10⁴

= (705.43 x +834.9 +962.5 +1090)1.10⁴

= 3592.83 / 1.10⁴

= 2453.95

Discount rate 18%

NPV = 530/ 1.18 + 690 / (1.18)² + 875/(1.18)³ + 1090/ (1.18)⁴

= (530x1.18³ + 690 x 1.18² + 875x 1.18 + 1090)/ 1.18⁴

= (870.80696 +960.756 +1032.5 +1090)1.18⁴

= 2039.46

Discount rate 24%

NPV = 530/ 1.24 + 690 / (1.24)² + 875/(1.24)³ + 1090/ (1.24)⁴

= (530x1.24³ + 690 x 1.24² + 875x 1.24 + 1090)/ 1.24⁴

1010.51072+ 1060.944+1085+1090 / 1.24⁴

= 1796.14
