A company is investing in a solar panel system to reduce its electricity costs. The system requires a cash payment of $125,374.60 today. The system is expected to generate net cash flows of $13,000 per year for the next 35 years. The investment has zero salvage value. QS 24-15 Net present value LO P3 The company requires an 8% return on its investments. 1-a. Compute the net present value of this investment. (PV of $1, FV of $1, PVA of $1, and FVA of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided. Round your present value factor to 4 decimals.) 1-b. Should the project be accepted?

NPV is positive,the project should be accepted

Explanation:

In determining whether or not the project should be accepted ,we need to ascertain the Net Present value of the project which is present value of cash inflows of $13,000 for 35 years minus the initial investment of $125,374.60 committed today.

The annuity factor for 8% for 35 year horizon is 11.6546 using annuity table.

Present of cash inflow=cash inflow*annuity factor=$13,000*11.6546=$151,509.80  

Net present value=$ 151,509.80-$125,374.60=$ 26,135.20  

The investment has a positive NPV,hence should be accepted
