Compare the results with those previous obtained.

Current Depreciation Method: MACRS over 5 years

Straight-line Depreciation Method over 7 years


CEV633 - ASSIGNMENT 1

Propose the depreciation method would you use?


The depreciation method that we use is Straight-line Depreciation Method over 7 years.
CEV633 - ASSIGNMENT 1

Part C

Based on figure above, the net present value data shows the probability for the project start to
loss profit at 67%.
CEV633 - ASSIGNMENT 1

Based on figure above, the discounted cash flow rate of return (DCFROR) data obtain was
0.0943 thus approximately 60% chance.

Hence, this analysis change my decision compared to that for the base case.
CEV633 - ASSIGNMENT 1

Part D

The highest and the lowest NPV obtained from the net present value data presented in figure
above are 970 million and 30 million respectively. The probability of getting 50 million of NPV
from the lowest value is 3% while for the highest NPV the probability obtained is 97%.
