pays back rapidly probably has a positive NPV. The Net Present Value of the project compares how much the project cost with how much it brings in terms of today’s dollar value. We use a procedure called the discounted cash flow (DCF) valuation. We desire to invest in projects with positive Net Present Value to add value to the firm. We calculated the projects Net Present Value to be $99‚520‚047.53. This value was calculated by the following formula: NPV = -$750‚000‚000 = $140‚000‚000/1.12 +

ABSTRACT This report describes capital budgeting techniques such as NPV (The NPV of an investment is the difference between its market value and its cost‚ IRR (The IRR is the discount rate that makes the estimated NPV of an investment equal to zero. PAYBACK (The payback period is the length of time until the sum of an investment’s cash flows equals its cost)‚ discounted payback period (The discounted payback period is the length of time until the sum of an investment’s discounted cash flows equals

indicator that buying the vessels is not a good idea. The tax rate of 35% makes a lot of difference in determining this NPV. In our calculations we did assume a tax rate on the final sale of the vessel. If it were possible‚ or known‚ the tax rate on the salvage it might be more feasible to buy the vessel‚ and end up with a positive NPV. The effect of taxes on EBIT and thereby NPV is easily seen in our analysis numbers. As taxes remain steady and profits from operations falls‚ the prudence of the investment

Will this processing plant have a value today that is greater than or equal to the cost today? -If the NPV of the plant is greater than zero‚ then we should move forward with the investment.
