\n- Payback Period:<\/strong> Gas Station A is paid back in 2 years; CF1 in year 1, and CF2 in year 2. Gas Station B is paid back in one (1) year. According to the payback period, when given the choice between two mutually exclusive projects, the investment paid back in the shortest time is selected.<\/li>\n
- Net Present Value:<\/strong> Consider the gas station example above under the NPV method, and a discount rate of 10%:
NPVgas station A<\/sub> = $100,000\/(1+.10)2<\/sup> – $50,000 = $32,644<\/strong> NPVgas station B<\/sub> = $50,000\/(1+.10) + $25,000\/(1+.10)2<\/sup> – $50,000 = $16,115<\/strong><\/li>\n- Internal Rate of Return:<\/strong> Assuming 10% is the cost of funds; the IRR for Station A is 41.421%.; for Station B, 36.602.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Summary of the Three (3) Methods: <\/p>\n <\/ol>\n\n\n- Gas Station B should be selected, as the investment is returned in 1 period rather than 2 periods required for Gas Station A.<\/li>\n
- Under the NPV criteria, however, the decision favors gas station A, as it has the higher net present value. NPV is a measure of the value of the investment.<\/li>\n
- The IRR method favors Gas Station A. as it has a higher return, exceeding the cost of funds (10%) by the highest return.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
