2. An investment today of $250,500 is expected to generate the following cash inflows during the next 6 years. The investment has a 10% expected rate of return. What is the Net Present Value (NPV) of this investment? (10 points)

1. Dividend yield is computed as follows:
= D1 / P0
= $ 2.50 / $ 41
= 6.10%
Capital appreciation rate is computed as follows:
= (P1 - Po) / P0
= ($ 37 - $ 41) / $ 41
= - $ 4 / $ 41
= - 9.76%
The NPV is computed as shown below:
= Initial investment + Present value of future cash flows
Present value is computed as follows:
= Future value / (1 + r)n
So, the NPV is computed as follows:
= - $ 250,500 + $ 110,000 / 1.10 + $ 85,000 / 1.102 + $ 95,525 / 1.103 + $ 82,890 / 1.104 + $ 5,250 / 1.105 + $ 3,990 / 1.106
= $ 53,644.35
