Here is a scenario that I must compute. Please help advise how one would obtain this information and how to explain it in an essay. This is all the info that is given, and Must calculate the NPV, IRR, payback period, and profitability index.

Project B: Expansion into Europe

• Expansion into Western Europe has a forecast to increasesales/revenues and cost of sales by 10% per year for 5 years.
• Annual sales for the previous year were $20 million.
• Start-up costs are projected to be $7 million and an upfront needed investment in net working capital of $1 million. The working capital amount will be recouped at the end of year 5.
• Because of the higher European tax rate, the marginal corporate tax rate is presumed to be 30%.
• Being a risky investment, the required rate of return of the project is 12%.
