Monetary benefits of an information system = ($40,000 for year 1), ($50,000 for year 2), ($60,000 for
year 3), ($70,000 for year 4), ($80,000 for year 5), ($90,000 for year 6).
Present value for benefits and costs can be calculated by using the formula:
n
PVn= Y × 1/(1+i)
Here, “PVn” is the present value and “i” is the discount rate.
Benefits starts from year 1, hence calculation of present value starts from year 1.
1
PV1= 40,000 × 1/(1+.11) = 40,000×0.9009 = 36,036
2
PV2= 50,000 × 1/(1+.11) = 50,000×0.8116 = 40,580
3
PV3= 60,000×1/(1+.11) = 60,000×0.7312 = 43,872
4
PV4= 70,000×1/(1+.11) = 70,000×0.6587 = 46,109
5
PV5= 80,000×1/(1+.11) = 80,000×0.5935 = 47,480

6
PV6= 90,000×1/(1+.11) = 90,000×0.5346 = 48,114
= 262,191
1
PV1= 45,000×1/(1+.11) = 45,0000×0.9009 = 40,540
2
PV2= 45,000×1/(1+.11) = 45,000×0.7312 = 36,523
3
P V3 = 45, 000 × 1/(1 + .11) = 45, 000 × 0.7311 = 32,903
4
PV4= 45,000×1/(1+.11) = 45,000×0.6587 = 29,642
5
PV5= 45,000×1/(1+.11) = 45,000×0.5935 = 26,708
6
PV6= 45,000×1/(1+.11) = 45,000×0.5346 = 24,057
= 270373
= 262,191 – 270,373
= -8,182
= 0.03026

Break even analysis is carried out by determining NPV of yearly cash flows.
The yearly cash flows are calculated by subtracting present values of recurring costs from the
present value of yearly benefits.
The overall NPV cash flow is total cash flow of the preceding years.
After determining NPV yearly cash flows, it is found that break even does not occur in all cases.
This is because overall NPV is never positive.
