I am trying to master Discounted Cash Flows and N.P.V at the moment. (Quiet at work this week so trying to study a lot). I had a look at June's question on this to see if it helped me any. The N.P.V for Year 0 is £39.72 I don't understand this at all!

How do you calculate Year 0?

Thanks

    In my tutorial notes it says the difference between the Total Discounted Cash Flow and the Initial Cost is the NPV. Therefore I make it Year 0 - (400) Year 1 131.58 Year 2 173.14 Year 3 101.25 making a total of 5.97. The Capital Expenditure is 400 and it was sold for 50
    (Above figures are in £000)

    Hello,

    I couldn't see any model answers but yours look all correct to me (Yr 0 Being 400 * 1.000), other than Yr 3.

    For Yr 3 I would have included the disposal proceeds of 50, as it is an incremental cash flow relevant to the investment - that would make the Net Cash flow 200 * 0.675 = 135.

    Hope this helps

    And by adding the discounted value of the proceeds of the disposal, your NPV is pretty much the same as £39.72 (thousand)
