Net Present Value and Competing Projects
Spiro Hospital is investigating the possibility of investing in new dialysis equipment. Two local manufacturers of this equipment are being considered as sources of the equipment. After-tax cash inflows for the two competing projects are as follows:
Both projects require an initial investment of $560,000. In both cases, assume that the equipment has a life of 5 years with no salvage value.
Required:
- 1. Assuming a discount rate of 12%, compute the net present value of each piece of equipment.
- 2. A third option has surfaced for equipment purchased from an out-of-state supplier. The cost is also $560,000, but this equipment will produce even cash flows over its 5-year life. What must the annual cash flow be for this equipment to be selected over the other two? Assume a 12% discount rate.
1.
Find out the NPV of each piece of equipment using discount rate as 12%.
Net Present Value:
The remaining balance of the present value of a project’s inflows and outflows is known as net present value (NPV). It is a discounting model of capital investment decision. A project with a positive NPV increases the wealth of a firm whereas a project with a negative NPV decreases the wealth of a firm.
Calculate NPV for Equipment P:
2.
Find out the required annual cash flow for third equipment to be selected over the other two equipments. Use discount rate as 12%.
