Payback Period and Net Present Value If a project with conventional cash flows has a payback period less than the project’s life, can you definitively state the algebraic sign of the NPV? Why or why not? If you know that the discounted payback period is less than the project’s life, what can you say about the NPV? Explain. Q
Suppose that a new machine tool having a useful life of only one year costs $80,000. Suppose, also, that the net additional revenue resulting from buying this tool is expected to be $92,000. The expected rate of return on this tool is
15 percent.
85 percent.
20 percent.
10 percent.
Now suppose you invest in both a factory and the research for the production of Green jetpacks. Look at the factory and research as a total investment. Calculate the net present value (NPV) before tax on the investment based on the following information:
The investment cost is paid in full in quarter 0, and the cost of the factory is 100000 while the cost of the research is also 100000.
The factory has a lifetime of 20 quarters (5 years) and the value of the factory at the end of quarter 20 is 0
Only green jetpacks should be produced at the factory throughout its lifetime.
There is no investment in research to streamline production or material consumption.
Suppose the quarterly demand in the market is constant and given at P = 338 - 0.018 * Q, where P is price and Q is the number of jetpacks in demand.
There are 5 competitors in the market (including you), and all sell the same number of jetpacks each quarter at the price of 248 each.
You produce as much as you sell.
The costs…

- "A corporation is trying to decide whether to buy the patent for a product designed by another company. The decision to buy will mean an investment of $9.6 million, and the demand for the product is not known. If demand is light, the company expects a return of $2 million each year for the first three years and no return in the fourth year. If demand is moderate, the return will be $2.73 million each year for four years, and high demand means a return of $5.4 million each year for four years. It is estimated the probability of a high demand is 0.47, and the probability of a light demand is 0.21. The firm's interest rate is 15.7%.Calculate the expected present worth of the patent.
