Operating Cashflows
Mukela Namushi Mubano, Accountant, Zambia, Member 12,000 x 4.968 (discount factor) = 59,616.
NPV = 59,616 - 52,125 = 7,491
The project could be undertaken since the NPV is positive. However, one should not overlook the qualitative effects of deciding to go ahead with the project.

Calculating Discount Factor
Mark May, Student (University), United States, Member The discount factor is arrived from (p/a, i, n) using compound interest table, where under p/a I = 12, n=8.
Or in Excel =pv(i, n,-1) which is = pv(.12,8,-1) = 4.9676.

Caculating Discount Factor
KATHRYN STEINER, MBA, Entrepreneur, United States, Member Right, finding the present value. Pv = fvn/(1+1)n
Thanks for the clarification.
