What is the net present value of this lockbox arrangement

Answer 1

Since you are considering implementing a lockbox system for your firm, and on an average day, your firm receives 1,370 checks with an average value of $ 880 each, and the daily interest rate on Treasury bills is 0.01 percent, and the bank charge per check would be $ 0.25, to determine what is the net present value of this lockbox arrangement, the following calculation must be performed:

• ((1370 x 880) x 1.0001) - (1370 x 0.25) = X
• 1,205,720.56 - 342.5 = X
• 1,205,378.06 = X

Therefore, the net present value of this lockbox arrangement is $1,205,378.06.
