Year Cash Flow
1 $695,000
2 876,250
3 1,057,500
4 1,238,750
5 1,420,000
1. Calculate the IRR and NPV of this project utilizing a 12% discount rate and a 15% cap rate. Ms. Brown
was able to secure a loan for $1,540,000, and an equity investor agreed to invest the remaining
$660,000 in exchange for 20% ownership in the project.
2. What is the loan-to-value ratio for this project?
3. What would the investor’s ROI be for this 5-year project if the restaurant achieved its budgeted operating
results for the year?
4. If the investor has a hurdle rate of 15%, does this project meet or exceed the investor’s requirements?
To help you with your business finance class, let's go through each question step by step.
1. Calculating IRR and NPV:
To calculate the Internal Rate of Return (IRR) and Net Present Value (NPV) for this project, you need to discount the cash flows to their present value using the given discount rates. The formula for NPV is:
NPV = Σ(CF / (1+r)^t) - Initial Investment
Where:
CF = Cash Flow
r = Discount rate
t = Time period
To find the IRR, you need to find the discount rate that makes the NPV of the cash flows equal to zero. You can use Excel or financial calculators to solve for IRR.
2. Loan-to-Value Ratio:
The Loan-to-Value (LTV) ratio is a measure of the loan amount relative to the total value of the project. To calculate LTV for this project, you divide the loan amount by the total value of the project. The total value of the project is the sum of the loan amount and the equity investment. In this case, it would be:
LTV Ratio = Loan Amount / (Loan Amount + Equity Investment)
3. Investor's ROI:
Return on Investment (ROI) measures the profitability of an investment. To calculate the investor's ROI, you need to determine the total return and divide it by the equity investment. The total return is the sum of cash flows over the investment period. In this case, the ROI formula would be:
ROI = (Total Return - Equity Investment) / Equity Investment
4. Comparing to the Hurdle Rate:
To determine if the project meets or exceeds the investor's requirements, you compare the project's IRR to the investor's hurdle rate. If the IRR is higher than the hurdle rate, then the project meets the investor's requirements. If the IRR is equal to or lower than the hurdle rate, then the project does not meet the investor's requirements.
Walk through the calculations using the provided data, formulas, and the given discount rate and cap rate to find the answers to each question. Let me know if you need help with the specific calculations or have any further questions.
