NPV Calculator (Net Present Value) NPV Calculator (Net Present Value) is a financial calculator that helps you calculate npv calculator (net present value) values from your input data. The formula used is: NPV = −Investment + Σ [ CFₙ / (1 + r)ⁿ ] for n = — free online calculator.

Formula

NPV = −Initial investment + CF1 / (1 + Discount rate (%) / 100)^1 + CF2 / (1 + Discount rate (%) / 100)^2 + CF3 / (1 + Discount rate (%) / 100)^3 + CF4 / (1 + Discount rate (%) / 100)^4 + CF5 / (1 + Discount rate (%) / 100)^5
  • NPV Calculator calculates its result from Initial investment, Discount rate (%), CF1, CF2, CF3, CF4, CF5. It uses the formula Calculated with the verified ST Calculator runtime.. Change any input to recalculate the result instantly.
  • The main inputs are Initial investment, Discount rate, CF1, CF2, CF3, CF4, CF5. Enter them in the units and format shown in the calculator.

Example: NPV

Inputs
  • Initial investment: 10000
  • Discount rate: 8 %
  • CF1: 2500
  • CF2: 2500
  • CF3: 2500
  • CF4: 2500
  • CF5: 2500

Using Initial investment = 10000, Discount rate (%) = 8, CF1 = 2500, CF2 = 2500, CF3 = 2500, CF4 = 2500, CF5 = 2500, the calculated result is NPV: -18.2249073048.
