Business

Business entrepreneurs risk their own money to try make a profit. The company does not necessarily create a product to solve a social problem.

Social entrepreneurs often have borrowed capital to solve a social problem. They don't necessarily have to make a profit. Their focus is to solve a social problem, such as pollution, poverty, or crime.

Both approaches fulfill a need in the market and aim to earn a sustainable profit. The main difference is that social entrepreneurship focuses beyond simply generating a profit, and measures its performance on the positive impact the business makes on society – whether social, cultural or environmental.

= Net income/Initial investment cost * 100

Annual Cash inflows:

Net income                                       $53,400   $34,680

Annual depreciation                           87,500    116,667

Annual expected net cash flows   $140,500  $151,347

PV annuity factor at 9% for 4 years    3.240       2.531              

PV of annual cash inflows            $455,220 $383,059

Net Present Value = (Initial investment - PV of annual cash flows)
