Answer:

The complete present value calcuation is below.

The net present value of this project is: $77,930.58 (assuming a value for the sale of the business equal to the purchase price).

Explanation:

For this problem, the first and basic question is:

<em>Prepare a net present value calculation for this project. What is the net present value of this project?</em>

<em />

<h2>Solution</h2>

The net present value is equal to: the present value of the future cash flows less present value of the investements.

<u>1. Present value of the future cash flows:</u>

The discount factor is equal to 1 / [1 + (1 + r)ⁿ]

Where:

r = 5% = 0.05
n = the number of year

Year Cash flow Discount factor Present value

1 $30,000 1/(1 + 0.05) $30,000/1.05 = $28,571.43

2 $30,000 1/(1 + 0.05)² $30,000/(1.05)² = $27,210.88

3 $30,000 1/(1 + 0.05)³ $30,000/(1.05)³ = $25,915.13

4 $30,000 1/(1 + 0.05)⁴ $30,000/(1.05)⁴ = $24,681.07

5 $30,000 1/(1 + 0.05)⁵ $30,000/(1.05)⁵ = $23,505.78

5 $240,000* 1/(1 + 0.05)⁵ $240,000/(1.05)⁵ = $188,046.28

*For the year 5 you must also consider the value of the business, which is unknow. You should have some information about it. Although unrealistic, at this stage we can just assume a value: let's say it is the same purchase price: $240,000. That is what the last line shows:

The discount the value of the value of the business is:

$240,000 / (1.05)⁵ = $188,046.28

The total present value of the future cash flows is the sum of the present values of all the cash flows:

$28,571.43 + $27,210.88 + $25,915.13 + $24,681.07 + $23,505.78 + $188,046.28 = $317,930.58

<u>2. Calculate the net present value:</u>

Net present value =

= Total present value of future cash flows - investment

Net present value = $317,930.58 - $240,000 = $77,930.58

Discount on notes payable $246,621.00

Notes payable $ 606,621.00

(To record purchase of land by issuing note payable)

PV of $606,621 discounted at 11% =606,621/(1.11)^5 = $ 360,000

Computation of the discount on notes payable:

Maturity value $560,000

Present value of $560,000 due in 8 years at 11% = $560,000 * 0.43393 = $ 243,000

Present value of $39,200 payable annually for 8 years at 11% annually—$39,200 * 5.14612 = $ 201,728

Present value of the note = $ 243,000 + $ 201,728 = $ 444,728

Discount = $ 560,000 - $ 444,728 = $ 115,272

Please find the detailed answer as follows:

Explanation:

Step 1. Given information.

Carrying amount 310.000

Fair Value 160.000

Step 2. Formulas needed to solve the exercise.

Impairment loss = Carrying value - Fair Value

Step 3. Calculation.

Impairment loss = $310.000 - $116.000 = $194.000.

Step 4. Solution.

The carrying amount of $310.000 > fair value of $160.000. To measure the impairment loss, just do CV-FV. hence $310.000 - $116.000 = $194.000.

Loss on impairment $194.000
