Determine the cost of the project and the revenues from the project for the period management wishes
Question:
Determine the cost of the project and the revenues from the project for the period management wishes to analyze. For example, a firm wants to start a new widget plant. The cost of the plant is $100,000. After 2 years, the firm estimates the project generated $150,000 in revenues.
Subtract the cost of the project from the gain from the project. In our example, $150,000 minus $100,000 equals $50,000.
Divide the number calculated in Step 2 by the cost of the project to determine ROI. In our example, $50,000 divided by $100,000 equals a ROI of 0.5.
Because this scenario project is (a not for profit) I am using the following costs below for my project analysis:
Determine the Cost of the Investment and Current Value of the Investment
$32,000$33,000
$33,000 - $32,000 =$1,000
($500 or $1,000)
Stuck at this point ($500 or $1,000) After 2 years, the firm estimates the project generated whether it should be $500 or $1,000 in revenues.
$500 $33,000
In My Example I have
Determine the cost of the project and the revenues from the project for the period management wishes to analyze. For example, a firm wants to start a new widget plant. The cost of the plant is $33,000.
I am stuck at this point--->After 2 years, the firm estimates the project generated should be $500 or $1,000 in revenues.
Subtract the cost of the project from the gain from the project. In the example, $1,000 minus $33,000 equals $32,000. Or In the example, $500 minus $33,000 equals =32,500
Divide the number calculated in Step 2 by the cost of the project to determine ROI. In the example, $1,000 divided by $33,000 or $500 divided by $33,000 equals a ROI of?
I must show and explain my work.
Not sure how to perform the detail ROI calculations.
I must determine is this a good use of your organization's resources why or why not.
Does the ROI support this? Why or why not?
