If it is an annuity due, the January payment would be made on January 1, and not discounted.i.e. annuity dues end up discounted one less period than ordinary annuities, thus the NPV changes.tFeb Mar Apr n. . .JanReview: Types of Cash Flows•Normal vs. Non-normal Cash FlowsNormal: Cost (negative CF) followed by a series of positive cash flows - one change of signs.Non-normal: Cost (negative CF), a series of positive cash flows, & cost to close project - two or more changes of signs.Example: Marge’s Decision•Calculator Steps. Falafel-Full: CF0 = -20,000, C01 = 15,000, F01 = 2, C02 = 13,000, F02 = 1, C03 = 3,000. NPV: I = 12, CPT NPV = 16,510•Pretzel: CF0 = -20,000, C01 = 2,000, C02 = 2,500, C03 = 3,000, C04 = 50,000.

Because NPV represents the investor’s required rate of return and corporations should act to maximize shareholder wealth.Review: Net Present ValueThank you for your attention!Any
