- Your company is planning to purchase a new log splitter for is lawn and garden business. The new splitter has an initial investment of $180,000. It is expected to generate $25,000 of annual cash flows, provide incremental cash revenues of $150,000, and incur incremental cash expenses of $100,000 annually. What is the payback period and accounting rate of return (ARR)?arrow_forwardGarnette Corp is considering the purchase of a new machine that will cost $342,000 and provide the following cash flows over the next five years: $99,000, $88,000, $92,000. $87,000, and $72,000. Calculate the IRR for this piece of equipment. For further instructions on internal rate of return in Excel. see Appendix C.arrow_forwardFalkland, Inc., is considering the purchase of a patent that has a cost of $50,000 and an estimated revenue producing life of 4 years. Falkland has a cost of capital of 8%. The patent is expected to generate the following amounts of annual income and cash flows: A. What is the NPV of the investment? B. What happens if the required rate of return increases?arrow_forward
- Consolidated Aluminum is considering the purchase of a new machine that will cost $308,000 and provide the following cash flows over the next five years: $88,000, 92,000, $91,000, $72,000, and $71,000. Calculate the IRR for this piece of equipment. For further instructions on internal rate of return in Excel, see Appendix C.arrow_forwardAssume that an investment of 100,000 produces a net cash flow of 60,000 per year for two years. The discount factor for year 1 is 0.89 and for year 2 is 0.80. The NPV is a. 0 b. 6,800 c. 1,400 d. (4,000)arrow_forwardBuena 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. Now, compute the present value of the profit earned on the investment. 3. Compute the NPV of the investment. Compare this with the present value of the profit computed in Requirement 2. What does this tell you about the meaning of NPV?arrow_forward
- Gossman Corporation is analyzing a capital expenditure that will involve a cash outlay of P104,904. Estimated cash flows are expected to be P36,000 annually for four years. The present value factors for an annuity of P1 for 4 years at interest of 10%, 12%, 14%, and 15% are 3.170, 3.037, 2.914, and 2.855, respectively.

Managers estimate that this investment will have a 10-year life and generate net cash inflows of $310,000 the first year, $280,000 the second year, and $260,000 each year thereafter for eight years. Compute the payback period. Round to one decimal place Net Cash Outflows Net Cash Inflows Year Amount Invested Annual Accumulated 0 1 2 3 4 5 Now that you understand how to fill in the payback schedule, the rest has been done for you. Review the table and determine between what years the payback will occur. The payback will occur after years, but before years. Now let's calculate the amount needed to complete recovery after year 5.
