Example one:
Suppose a sum of $500,000 has to be invested in
a project who’s expected net cash flows are as
follows;
Year Annual net cash flows
0 ($500,000)
1 185,000
2 125,000
3 140,000
4 170,000
5 180,000

Required – Calculate;
a) The pay back period for the project?
b) If the project’s pay back period set by the
management is 4 years, then will the project
be accepted or rejected? Justify your reason.

Solution;
First, we have to calculate the average net
income as follow;
Average net income = $35,000/5 = $7,000
Hence, ARR = ($7,000/$56,000)x100 = 12.5%
Discounted cash flow method
or
PV=
Therefore, the formula for NPV is given as follow;
NPV = - I

Example three:
Suppose X project initially requires $56,000 for
its investment and the expected cash inflows for
the consecutive 5 years are given as follows;
Year Annual cash inflow
1 14,000
2 16,000
3 18,000
4 20,000
5 25,000

Example four;
By considering example three, calculate the PI?
Will the project be acceptable or not? Justify
your reason.
Solution;
PI = $69,645/$56,000 =
Since PI is greater than 1, then the project is
acceptable.
