Problem:
Assuming monetary benefits of an information system at $85,000 per year, one-time costs of $75,000, recurring costs of $35,000 per year, a discount rate of 12 percent, and a 5-year time horizon, calculate the net present value of these costs and benefits of an information system. Also calculate the overall return an investment of the project and then present a break-even analysis. At what point does break-even occur?
