Question 4 [20 marks). An improved window system for Kalingalinga Mall adds K200/m for windows but saves K25/m_/yr in reduced costs for heating, cooling and lighting. (a) What is the simple payback period for the Kalingalinga project? [3 marks] (b) If a similar project at Lewanika Mall requires an investment of K250/m for windows which is projected to be paid back in 6 years, what is the simple rate of return for the Lewanika project? [3 marks] (c) For the Kalingalinga Mall project, which is being considered for a life of 10 years with discount rate of capital at 15%, what is the (i) net present value (NPV) of the project, if a competing option adds K250/m and saves K30/m-/yr? [4 marks] (ii) internal rate of return (IRR)? [4 marks] (d) The unit cost of the recuuring inputs to run the combined improved heating, cooling and lighting system for the Kalingalinga Mall is projected to increase at a constant rate from K0.30 to K0.40 in 10 years. Determine the effect of this on the NPV and IRR determined in part (C).
