An investment project requires an initial investment of $1M and will result in a profit of $10M in 8 years. The discount rate is 9%. What’s the NPV?
NPV = PV of profits - PV of Investment+costs
With discount rate of 9%, using “Rule of 69-72”, the investment will double in 8 years.
So the $10M profit 8 years from now is worth half today, or $5M.
So the NPV = 5M - 1M = 4M

How to measure whether your retail company’s growth is from opening new stores or from improved performance?
Comparable Store Sales (Same-Store Sales) Growth.
This metric compares the sales performance of existing stores over a specific period, excluding the impact of newly opened stores, thus isolating growth due to improved performance from growth due to expansion. By comparing overall growth with Comparable Store Sales Growth, you can determine how much of the growth is attributed to new store openings versus enhancements in existing stores.

Percentage change of revenue when adjusting price, quantity
% change = price change 1 + price change 2 + (price change 1 * price change 2) example: A company has $300m in revenue which grows by 20% and then shrinks by 10%. What’s the net change in revenue? 1 + 20% - 10% + (-10%*20%) –> 120% - 10% + -2% = 108%, so 8% change. example: How much will revenue change if a company increases prices by 20% which leads to a 20% decrease in sales? –> 1 + 20% + -20% + -4% = 96% –> change of -4%
