In DCF calculation only the incremental has to be considered. That means that sunk costs (cost that have been spent in the past) or costs which would be spent independently from the project are not taken into account. On the other hand opportunity costs have to be considered. e.g:
- equipment and machines already exist and cannot be allocated to other projects furthermore selling into the market is not possible too => sunk cost wont influence the project decision thats why they wont be considered in the DCF calculation
- equipment and machines exists already but can be used for other existing production as replacement eg. In this case the machine has be considered because otherwise the company has to invest money for the replacement of the existing production (opportunity costs)

cash method is when you get cash, method is when u give it
Deferred financing costs are considered a financing activity in the cash flow statement. These costs are incurred when a company raises capital, such as through loans or bond issues, and are capitalized as an asset on the balance sheet. When the costs are amortized over time, they impact the financing cash flows as they reflect the expenses related to obtaining financing.
To calculate the project's discounted payback period, you need to first determine the present value of each cash flow using the given Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) as the discount rate. Then, you can accumulate these discounted cash flows until they equal the initial investment. The discounted payback period is the time it takes for this accumulation to occur. If you provide the specific cash flow amounts and the WACC, I can help you calculate the exact discounted payback period.
A discounted cash flow is an estimate of what today's dollar will be worth tomorrow basically. All future cash flow can only be estimated. There is a mathematical formula that can be used to figure out if an investment has the potential to make money.
A discounted payback method is a formula that is used to calculate how long to recoup investments based on the discounted cash flows of the investment. It is a variation of payback period or the time it takes to recover a project investment given the discounted cash flow it has.

Debt to cash flow isn't something that costs you anything. It is the amount of debt in comparison to your available cash. It is generally recommended that your cash flow to debt is approximately 70% or higher.
