Calculation of NPV & IRR of uneven Cash Flows and Comparing NPV & IRR between two Investment options.

1. T. Ward and Company has been presented with an investment opportunity which will yield end-of-year cash flows of $300,000 per year in Years 1 through 4, $350,000 in Years 5 through 9, and $400,000 in Year 10. This investment will cost TW & C $1,500,000 today; its cost of capital is 10%.

Calculate the NPV of this proposed investment.

2. Davis Industries must choose between a gas-powered and electric-powered forklift truck for moving materials in its factory. Since both forklifts perform the same function, the firm will only choose one. (They are mutually exclusive investments.) The electric-powered truck will cost more, but it will be less expensive to operate; it will cost $22,000, whereas the gas-powered truck will cost $17,500. The cost of capital for both is 12 %. The life for both types of truck is estimated to be 6 years, during which time the net cash flows for the electric truck will be $6290 per year and for the gas truck, $5000 per year. Annual net cash flows include depreciation. Calculate the NPV and IRR for each truck, and decide which to recommend.
