Practicing Net Present Value
A Master’s of Accountancy degree at Central University costs $12,000 for an additional fifth year of education beyond the bachelor’s degree. Assume that all tuition is paid at the beginning of the year. A student considering this investment must evaluate the present value of cash flows from possessing a graduate degree versus holding only the undergraduate degree. Assume that the average student with an undergraduate degree is expected to earn an annual salary of $50,000 per year (assumed to be paid at the end of the year) for 10 years after graduation. Assume that the average student with a graduate Master’s of Accountancy degree is expected to earn an annual salary of $66,00 per year (assumed paid at the end of the year) for nine (9) years after graduation. Assume a minimum required rate of return of 10%:
