Step 1: Download the Applying Excel form located on the left-hand side, under files. If you have trouble, the file is also located in D2L under Course Administration. Step 2: Then enter formulas in all cells that contain question marks. For example, in cell C21 enter the formula "= 810". Important Note: The present value factors could be computed using the built-in Excel function PV, but we recommend using the formulas in Appendix 13B. Step 3: Check your worksheet by changing the discount rate to 10%. The net present value should now be between $56,400 and $56,535 (depending on the precision of the calculations). If you do not get an answer in this range, find the errors in your worksheet and correct them If you did not use formulas to calculate the Discount Factors, be sure that those values are updated appropriately using the Appendix 13B formulas that are also noted at the bottom of the spreadsheet instead of using the Discount Factor tables. Step 4: Proceed to the requirements below only after completing your worksheet as it will be used to answer the following questions. Click here to view Exhibit 13B-1 and Exhibit 138-2, to determine the appropriate discount factor(s) using tables. 2.
