A project has estimated annual cash flows of $95,000 for four years and is estimated to cost $260,000. Assume a minimum acceptable rate of return of 12%.
1. Determine the net present value of the project (use 3 decimal places for the PV factor)
2. Determine the present value index, rounded to two decimal places. (use 3 decimal places for the PV factor)
REQUIRED
Use the information provided below to calculate the following:
5.1 Payback Period of both projects (expressed in years, months and days).
5.2 Accounting Rate of Return (on initial investment) of Project Spik (expressed to two decima
places).
5.3 Net Present Value of both projects.
5.4
Internal Rate of Return of Project Spik (expressed to two decimal places). Your answer
must include two net present value calculations (using consecutive rates/percentages) and
interpolation.
INFORMATION
Telco Ltd had to choose between purchasing machinery for two projects, Spik and Span, for which the
following profits are forecast:
Year
1
2

Spik
R70 000
R70 000
R70 000
R70 000
Span
R20 000
R60 000
R120 000
R70 000
Each project requires an investment of R800 000. Project Span is expected to have a scrap value of R40 000.
The cost of capital is 12%. The straight-line method of depreciation is used. Ignore taxes.
Consider the following project balances for a typical investment project with aservice life of four years:
(a) Construct the original cash flows of the project.(b) Determine the interest rate used in computing the project balance.(c) Would this project be acceptable at a MARR of 12%?
