• The lifetime value (LTV) of your customer is loosely defined as
the net money a customer contributes over their life as a

average a customer purchase car after every 5 years and in life
time purchases 10 cars so profit from a customer will be
$60000 so at 15% of discount rate the NPV will be CLV for an
Audi.
