 | | The net present value of a project is the difference between the present value of all cash inflows and the present value of all cash outflows. | | | The net present value method assumes that all cash flows are known with certainty and that all cash flows generated by the project are immediately reinvested at a rate of return equal to the discount rate. | | | When the net present value method is used, the cost of capital is the discount rate. |

| | Net present value - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | NPV is calculated by discounting of a series of future cash flows, and summing the discounted amounts and the initial investment (a negative amount). | | | Net present value is a valuation method based on discounted cash flows. | | | This particular example is why discounted cash flow methods of valuation are superior to ones not based on time value of money. |

| | Present value - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | The present value of a future cash flow is the nominal amount of money to change hands at some future date, discounted to account for the time value of money. | | | The present value of a bundle of cash flows is the sum of each one's present value. | | | Because of this present values are smaller than corresponding future values. |

| | Net Present Value defined |
| | Net Present Value: The sum that results when the discounted value of the expected costs of an investment are deducted from the discounted value of the expected returns. | | | The net present value calculation, using a cost of capital/discount rate of 7%, takes the initial costs and ongoing costs and benefit cash flows to create a single net cost or savings figure. | | | NPV is different from ROI, which is a ratio of net benefits to the costs, because NPV savings uses discounted cash flow to quantify, in today's dollar terms, the projected net gain from the project in net dollar terms. |

| | NPV is equal to the present value of its annual after tax net cash flows less the investment’s initial outlay. | | | Accepting positive NPV increases the value of the firm, and is consistent with goal of wealth’s maximization. | | | To determine the system's net present value, the 3 year $15,000 cash flow annuity is first discounted back to the present at 10 percent. |

| | NPV analysis is generally used to evaluate the project's cash flows, rather than the income from the project that would be shown on an income statement. | | | However, using NPV analysis you can determine that if the discount rate on the project was 10 percent, the net present value of the expected returns would be $7,581.60. | | | If the NPV is greater than the cost, the project will be profitable for you (assuming, of course, that your estimated cash flow is reasonably close to reality). |

| | NPV is a very useful tool for corporations and governments alike in that it allows for a comparison of current costs to undertake a project versus the potentials benefits, in this case revenues, that the project will yield sometime in the future. | | | Net Present Value criterion is an important assessment which calculates the current value of a future cash flow. | | | If the NPV is greater then 0 then the current value of the cash flow that will be generated by the project or business is positive. |

| | The net present value (NPV) of a whole income stream is the sum of these present values of the individual amounts in the income stream. | | | All of the amounts in the income stream are net income, meaning that each is income minus outgo, or revenue minus cost. | | | The net present value of an investment tells you how this investment compares either with your alternative investment or with borrowing, whichever applies to you. A positive net present value means this investment is better. A negative net present value means your alternative investment, or not borrowing, is better. |
