Your real estate adviser has come back with some revised forecasts. He suggests that you rent out the building for two years at $20,000 a year, and predicts that at the end of that time you will be able to sell the building for $400,000. Thus there are now two future cash flows—a cash flow of C1 = $20,000 at the end of one year and a further cash flow of C2 = (20,000 + 400,000) = $420,000 at the end of the second year. The present value of your property development is equal to the present value of C1 plus the present value of C2. Figure 2.4 shows that the value of the first year’s cash flow is C1/(1 + r) = 20,000/1.12 = $17,900 and the value of the second year’s flow is C2/ (1 + r)2 = 420,000/1.122 = $334,800. Therefore our rule for adding present values tells us that the total present value of your investment is
PV = C1/1+r + C2/(1+r)2Â = 20,000/1.12 + 420,000/1.122Â =17,900 +334,800 =$352,700
Sorry, but your office building is now worth less than it costs. NPV is negative:
NPV =$352,700 -$370,000 =-$17,300
Perhaps you should revert to the original plan of selling in year 1.
