Capital Budgeting Techniques

Capital Budgeting Techniques

• Calculate, interpret, and evaluate the payback period.

• Calculate, interpret, and evaluate the present value (NPV).

• Calculate, interpret, and evaluate the internal rate of return (IRR).

Exercise 9 - 3

• Project Kelvin will cost $45,000 and generate cash inflows of $20,000 per year for the next 3 years

• Project Thompson will cost $275,000 and generate cash inflows of $60,000 per year for 6 years.

• Using an 8% cost of capital, calculate each project’s NPV and make a recommendation based on your findings

Exercise 9 - 3 Solution

Exercise 9 - 4

• Calculate the IRR for each of the following projects and recommend best project.

• Project T-shirt requires initial investment of $15,000 and generates cash inflows of $8,000 per year for 4 years.

• Project Board Shorts requires an initial investment of $25,000 and produces cash inflows of $12,000 per year for 5 years.

Exercise 9 - 4 Solution

Project T-Shirt• PV = -15,000• N = 4• PMT = 8,000• Solve for I IRR = 39.08%

Problem 9 - 1

• Payback period• Jordan Enterprises is considering a capital

expenditure that requires an initial investment of $42,000 and returns after-tax inflows of $7,000 per year for 10 years. The firm has maximum acceptable payback period of 8 years.

a) Determine the payback period for this project.b) Should the company accept the project? Why?

Problem 9 - 1 Solution

(a) $42,000 / $7,000 = 6 years(b) The company should accept the

project, since 6 < 8.

Problem 9 - 3

• Choosing between 2 projects with acceptable payback periods

• Each project requires $100,000 investment

• Maximum payback period 4 years

a) Determine payback period of each project.

b) Which one should they choose?

c) Explain why is one of the projects a better choice.

Year Project A Project B1 $10,000 $40,000

2 $20,000 $30,000

3 $30,000 $20,000

4 $40,000 $10,000

5 $20,000 $20,000

Problem 9 - 3 Solution

Problem 9 - 4

• NPV• Calculate the NPV for the following 20-year projects.

Comment on the acceptability of each• Opportunity cost is 14%a) Initial investment is $10,000; cash inflows are $2,000

per year.b) Initial investment is $10,000; cash inflows are $2,000

per year.c) Initial investment is $10,000; cash inflows are $2,000

per year.

Problem 9 - 4 Solution

Problem 9 - 7

• NPV• Car inventor has offered Simes choice of either one time

payment $1,500,000 today or a series of 5 year-end payments of $385,000

a) If Simes has cost of capital 9%, which form of payment would they choose?

b) What yearly payment would make the two offers identical in value at a cost of capital of 9%

c) Would your answer be different if the yearly payments were made at the beginning of each year? Show the difference.

d) The after-tax cash inflows are projected to $250,000 per year for 15 years. Will this factor change the decision?

Problem 9 - 7 Solution

Problem 9 - 9

• NPV- exclusive projects• Hook industries is

considering the replacement of a drill press

• Cost of capital is 15%a) Calculate NPV of each

press.b) Evaluate acceptability.c) Rank the presses best to

worst

Problem 9 - 13

• IRR, investment life and cash inflows• Oak enterprises accepts projects earning more than 15%.

Oak is considering a 10 year project that provides $10,000 annual cash inflows and requires $61,450 initial investment.

a) Determine IRR. Is it acceptable?b) Assuming cash inflows stay same how many additional

years would the flows have to continue to make IRR 15%?c) With given life, initial investment, and cost of capital what is

the minimum annual cash inflow the firm should accept?

Problem 9 - 13 Solution

Problem 9 - 21

• Integrative - Complete investment decision

• Existing– 10yrs ago at $1,000,000– Sells $1,200,000

• New– Cost $2,200,000– 5yrs, MACRS– Sales $1,600,000 increase per

year– Costs 50% of Sales

• Cost of Capital 11%• Tax 40%

MACRS

a) Calculate initial investment.b) Determine incremental operating

cash flows.c) Determine the terminal cash flow.d) Depict on a time line the relevant

cash flows.
