# Npv Discount Rate Input Recheck

Recheck an NPV result against the discount rate actually applied.

## Scope
Preparation and review only. No account action or professional decision.

## Inputs
The cash flows, the discount rate, and the quoted NPV.

## Workflow
1. Record the cash flows and timing.
2. Record the discount rate applied.
3. Recompute and compare to the quoted NPV.
4. Return the recheck without model changes.

## Output contract
investment | annual_inflow | years | rate | present_value | computed_npv | quoted_npv

## Fictional acceptance test
Fictional project costs 200,000 and returns 80,000 a year for 3 years; the quoted plus 40,000 is the undiscounted surplus, while at a 10% rate the present value is 80,000 times 2.487, 198,960, an NPV of minus 1,040.

## Review gates
Keep original values, source IDs and version dates. Unknown facts stay held. Use qualified review for hiring, legal and accounting conclusions. No send, share, sign-in, scheduling, ledger change or payment. Fictional contract review is not a live account compatibility test.
