Question

8. Consider a project lasting one year only. The initial outlay is $1,000 and the expected inflow is $1,200. The opportunity cost of capital is $r = .20$. The borrowing rate is $r_D = .10$, and the tax shield per dollar of interest is $T_c = .35$. a. What is the project's base-case NPV? b. What is its APV if the firm borrows 30% of the project's required investment?

Step 1

To calculate the project's base-case NPV, we need to discount the expected inflow by the opportunity cost of capital and subtract the initial outlay. NPV = (Expected inflow / (1 + r)) - Initial outlay = (1200 / (1 + 0.20)) - 1000 = 1000 - 1000 = Show more…
