Question

Injection Aluminium Mines, Inc. is considering adoption of a new project requiring a net investment of $10 million. The project is expected to generate 5 years of net cash inflows of $5 million per year. In the project's sixth, and final year, it is expected to have a net cash outflow of $1 million. What is the project's risk adjusted net present value? The company's cost of capital is 7% but projects of this nature are usually judged by a risk adjusted rate that is 5% higher than cost of capital

Explanation / Answer

The discount rate to be used as per the company policy = 7% + 5% = 12% risk adjusted rate
