Book value of equipment = 95.000.000 - 13.575.500 - 23.265.500 - 16.615.500 - 11.865.500

 Financial Management – Homework 3 & 4

Book value of equipment = 29.678.000

Market value of the equipment = 95.000.000*0,6 = 57.000.000

Taxes on sale of equipment = (29.678.000 – 57.000.000)*0.25 = - 6.830.500

Aftertax salvage value = 57.000.000 – 6.830.500 = 50.169.500

Year Cash flow

0 - 104.112.000

3 30.177.875
4 76.287.375
5 - 2.025.000
6 - 4.500.000

Payback period = 3 + 19.697.375/76.287.375

Payback period = 3.26 years

Profitability index = (24.852.875/1.12 + 29.383.875/1.12 2 + 30.177.875/1.123 + 76.287.375/1.124 –

2.025.000/1.125 – 4.500.000/1.126) / 104.112.000

Profitability index = 1.08

Net Present Value = -104.112.000 + 24.852.875/1.12 + 29.383.875/1.12 2 + 30.177.875/1.123 +

76.287.375/1.124 – 2.025.000/1.125 – 4.500.000/1.126

Net Present Value = 8.035.854,1

The equation for IRR is:

0 = –104.112.000 + 24.852.875/(1 + IRR) + 29.383.875/(1 + IRR)² + 30.177.875/(1 + IRR)³ +

76.287.375/(1 + IRR)4 – 2.025.000/(1 + IRR)5 – 4.500.000/(1 + IRR)6

IRR = 15,09%

Answer: Yes, the company should accept the project because the net present value is higher than
zero.
