Buena Vision Clinic is considering an investment that requires an outlay of 600,000 and promises a net cash inflow one year from now of 810,000. Assume the cost of capital is 10 percent. Required: 1. Break the 810,000 future cash inflow into three components: a. The return of the original investment b. The cost of capital c. The profit earned on the investment 2.
