Incremental cash flow is the additional operating cash flow generated by a new project. It is calculated by taking the incremental revenues and subtracting the incremental costs, including taxes, capital expenditures, and working capital additions. The document provides an example calculation of incremental cash flow over multiple time periods for a new project. It also gives an example problem calculating the incremental cash flow of a new machinery investment that would increase annual sales by $1 million. Incremental cash flow is important for evaluating and comparing project profitability.

7. ABC company is considering investing in new
machinery which costs $ 500000.
It has useful life of 5 years with a scrap value of $ 50000.
Base on the projection , the company will be able to
increase the sale of $ 1 million per year with 40% of variable
cost.
what is the incremental cash flow of this project ?
PROBLEM ON INCREMENTAL CASH FLOW

8. The cash in flow over the project is $
5000000
( 1000000* 5 years )
The cash outflow over the project is $
2000000
( 40% of the sale is variable cost )
ICF = $ 5000000- 2000000-500000=
2500000
SOLUTION

9. Incremental cash flow is an important
tool for ranking or deciding between two
competing and mutually exclusive projects
The positive net cash flow for the new
project is calculated and added to the
company ‘s existing cash flow.
