Calculate NPV – Compare to IRR

2. Problem Definition
Sun Bay Manufacturing, Ltd. Is considering the investment of $230,000 in a new machine. The machine will generate cash flow of $40,000 per year for each year of its eight-year life and will have a salvage value of $26,000 at the end of its life. The company’s cost of capital is 10%.

3. Problem Requirements
Calculate the net present value of the proposed investment. (Ignore income taxes.)
What will the internal rate of return on this investment be relative to the cost of capital? Explain your answer.

4. Problem Solution
Calculate the net present value of the proposed investment. (Ignore income taxes.)

Solution: Since the NPV is negative, the investment does not earn the 10% cost of capital.
Net Present Value

21. Problem Requirements
Calculate the net present value of the proposed investment. (Ignore income taxes.)
What will the internal rate of return on this investment be relative to the cost of capital? Explain your answer.

22. Problem Solution
Because the net present value is negative, the internal rate of return on this project will be lower than the cost of capital of 10%.
