Net Present Value of Future Investments |
0.03 sec. |

Net present value of future investments The present value of the total sum of NPVs expected to result from all of the firm's future investments. Net Present Value A measure of discounted cash inflow to present cash outflow to determine whether a prospective investment will be profitable. For example, if a dentist wishes to purchase a new dental practice, he may calculate the net present value over a number of years to see if he will recover his investment in a reasonable period of time. If the ask price for the dental practice is $500,000, this is the present cash outflow used in the calculation. If the discounted cash inflow over, say, two years, is greater than or equal to $500,000, then the investment will likely be profitable. See also: Present value. How to thank TFD for its existence?
