245% Return on Investment (ROI)
A project’s expected return in percentage terms. ROI is calculated by dividing net benefits (benefits less costs) by costs.

$3.73M Present Value (PV)
The present or current value of (discounted) cost and benefit estimates given at an interest rate (the discount rate). The PV of costs and benefits feed into the total NPV of cash flows.

$2.65M Net Present Value (NPV)
The present or current value of (discounted) future net cash flows given an interest rate (the discount rate). A positive project NPV normally indicates that the investment should be made, unless other projects have higher NPVs.

Less Than 6-Month Payback Period
The break-even point for an investment. This is the point in time at which net benefits (benefits minus costs) equal initial investment or cost.
