NPV = ∑CFt / (1+r)t - Initial Investment
Where:
CFt is the net cash flow for period t,
r is the discount rate,
∑ indicates the sum for all periods.
Interpretation:
A positive NPV indicates that the project could be profitable.
A negative NPV indicates that the project may not be profitable.

The IRR is the discount rate that makes the NPV equal to zero. It can be found
using numerical methods or through formulas in spreadsheets.
Interpretation:
A IRR greater than the minimum required discount rate suggests that the project is
profitable.

The PRI indicates the time required to recover the initial investment. It is calculated by summing the cash flows.

Interpretation:
A shorter PRI is generally more favorable, but it must be compared with the period
desired to recover the investment.
General Interpretation:

PRI is acceptable compared to the investor's expectations, the project can
