qqq3, public bank told you he calculated NPV this way ? Don't ruin its name. Nobody calculate NPV this way. PBB said FCFE and you read it as NPV.

NPV in this case takes into account every things, including the project costs, loan repayments.........it is the surplus from the project.
so, u have NPV of $ 1 billion and 30% of that....that is $ 300 million.....your expected NPV over 20 years, discounted at , I don't know what rate.
In concept PBB is correct..........
the NPV represents....if u invest...u get this much more compared to if u do not invest.............it is a residue figure from the spreadsheet.........it is not some thing tangible....The some thing tangible is what is already shown in your balance sheet........... 14/05/2020 5:50 PM
say if u want to negotiate a PPA with me....and we both agree that the return to you shall be 12% of your investments, (not the project cost).....then u go work on a cashflow projections assuming 75% borrowings , 25% equity, discount the figures at 12% and come to zero NPV (Cash outflows equals inflows on a discounted basis) ..........then we agree on the coal prices and tarifs as based on the projections. Now, we have deal.
then, u take the deal...........put into your spreadsheet and discounted at your own cost of funds , say 6%.............so, now, u have the so called NPV of $ 1 billion..........
the NPV here represents the additional assets in your balance sheet after 20 years assuming u invest.
qqq3, don't invent NPV. It is not the way. Don't guess your way thru to get a logical answer. NPV works on the future cash flow and discounts them to present value. simple. Don't make it sounds complicated.
I should drop this subject on NPV, a simple method. Anyone else not sure please ask.
From now on, I will keep posting this remark to remind you that you may seek my comment if you wish to clarify what you read in this forum no matter how stupid they are. I will not be responding to comments here unless requested by sincere readers.
I trust most readers here are able to differentiate for themselves comments that are reliable from those that are ridiculous. If you are not sure, ask.
Thank you.

Internal rate of return (IRR) is the interest rate at which the net present value of all the cash flows (both positive and negative) from a project or investment equal zero.
Internal rate of return is used to evaluate the attractiveness of a project or investment. If the IRR of a new project exceeds a company’s required rate of return, that project is desirable. If IRR falls below the required rate of return, the project should be rejected.
ehome, it's not difficult.... just think about it.... and don't challenge PBB. u are wrong, PBB is correct at least based on information supplied to them by management
ehome... PBB figures are based on information given to them by management..... if u insist the plant can make $1 a year... then managent and PBB are wrong. That is the summary as things stand
if Otb thinks his margin calculations are better, or if people think Jaks management misled them... then buy and keep.... but don't drag others down the drain
qqq333, I am talking about facts, never intend to challenge PBB, i just want to point out the mistake made by the analyst. We are human being and bound to make mistake, so do u.
i3lurker, I am ready to apologize if I wrongly accuse them. But these articles (mine and DK66's) need to reach PBB's attention first for them to verify our writings. This is in fact a good opportunity to exchange ideas between us and IB.
Anyone can u please forward to the concerned IB so that they have a chance to counterclaim our findings.

I went through the Report.........they did not make any conceptual mistake......
u think about things I write.....and PBB workings, all very transparent and correct.
Ehome009, anyone can agree or disagree with any IB reports by pointing out their mistakes. I once criticized a report by PBB and Sslee sought clarification and they came back politely with explanation. Do you think PBB will sue anyone for disagreeing their reports ?!
This book is the result of the author's many years of experience and observation throughout his 26 years in the stockbroking industry. It was written for general public to learn to invest based on facts and not on fantasies or hearsay....
