Answer Key for Oliver Lehmann PMP Exam Question No. 2

There are two projects in the question. We need to choose the project with a better returns based on the Net Present Value (NPV). The below table shows the given data.

Project #	Duration	Cost	Returns
1	9 months	$250,000	$120,000/ year
2	9 months	$250,000	1st year: $15,000 2nd year: $125,000 3rd year: $220,000

Since the cost and duration are the same for both projects, let us ignore those data; we will look into the returns/ benefits of the project only to compare.

Net Present Value (NPV) = FV/(1+r)^t, where
FV = Future Value
r = rate of interest
t = time period

So, the NPV of project 1 considering first three years
= 120000 / 1.05 + 120000 / 1.05² + 120000 / 1.05³
= $326790

NPV of project 2 considering first three years
= 15000 / 1.05 + 125000 / 1.05² + 220000 / 1.05³
= $317709

Comparing the two values, project #1 is better. By, what percentage?
= (326790-317709) / 317709
= 0.029
= 2.90% (approximately 3%)

So, the first project is more attractive by approximately 3%.
