P.V. of Cash inflow = 165996 * P.V,factor for first year @ 12 % + 218540 * P.V,factor for second year @ 12 % + 75172 * P.V,factor for third year @ 12 % + 60692 * P.V,factor for fourth year @ 12 %
P.V. of Cash inflow = 165996 * 0.893 + 218540 * 0.797 + 75172 * 0.712 + 60692 * 0.636
P.V. of Cash inflow = $ 414533.38
Net Present value = P.V. of Cash inflow - P.V. of cash outflow
= 414533.38 - 400000
= $ 14533.38 (approx)
Conclusion:- Net Present value (NPV)= $ 14533.38 (approx)
