1) Net present value (NPV) calculates the total discounted net cash flow of an investment minus the initial cost.
2) The document provides an example NPV calculation for a project with an initial cost of $850,000 and net cash flows of $240,000, $300,000, $350,000 and $350,000 over four years.
3) The calculated NPV for this project is $706,200, indicating it should be accepted since the NPV is positive.

2. The net cash flow is the same for both 3. 1) Net present value is a value that calculates the total discounted net cash flow minus the initial cost of an investment project. 2) Year Net Cash Discoun Present Flow t Factor Value 0 (850000) 1 240000 0.88 211200 2 300000 0.76 228000 3 350000 0.67 234500 4 350000 0.59 206500
Sum of present value- 211200+228000+234500+206500= 880200
Sum of net cash flow- 174000 NPV- 880200-174000= 706200
