Jon Stevens, BNSF Vice President and Controller describes the capital spending process primarily as

- a means to ensure regulatory compliance - a balancing act that requires careful evaluation of the costs and benefits of each project

What types of analyses do the BNSF strategic studies team conduct?

- discounted cash flow - sensitivity

Identify which of these are the relevant cash flows when considering a capital budgeting project.

- lost rent from retail facility - remodeling expenses for new store - increase in inventory - expected salvage value of manufacturing equipment

Your firm has a potential project that will cost $5,000 now to begin. The project will then generate after-tax cash flows of $413 at the end of the next three years and then $1,549 per year for the three years after that. If the discount rate is 6.15% then what is the NPV?
