How would your answer to (a) change if you anticipated no growth in cash flow?

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

cash flow will increase according to inflation . We shall discount them at 6% for 5 years

NPV =100000+ 100000x1.02 / 1.06 + 100000 x1.02² / 1.06² + 100000 x (1.02)³/1.06³ + 100000x 1.02⁴ / 1.06⁴

= 100000+96226.41 +92595.23+89101.07+85738.76

= 463661.5
