Net Operating cash flow?

NPV?

Explanation / Answer

For NPV we need to calculatw the WACC

Yield to maturity = 8%

After tax cost of debt = 8%*(1-40%)

= 4.8%

Cost of equity = 0.02+1.2* (0.15-0.02)

= 17.6%

Now, using 9.92% as the cost of capital, NPV is calculated.

salvage value $30,000 Book value $0 profit on sale $30,000 Tax on profits $12,000 After tax salvage value $18,000
