Then calculate the NPV from success906,150 Subtracting the NPV of failure, -1,000*(1-.2688 or .7312) = -731,200. The difference between the NPVs is the expected NPV of the project, 906,150-731,200=174,950.5、A project has the following cash flows (£):Assuming a discount rate of 11% annually, the discounted payback period (in years) is closest to:【单选题】A.3.4.B.3.9.C.4.0.正确答案:B答案解析:“Capital Budgeting,” John D.

The discounted cash flows and their cumulative sum are:After three years, $821.02 of the $1,525 investment is recovered, leaving $703.98 left to recover in the fourth year. Proportionately, only 0.88 (= $703.98/$800.36) of the cash flow in the fourth year is necessary to recover all of the investment. This makes the discounted payback equal to 3.9 years (rounded up from 3.88).。
