The document provides an overview of key concepts for financial managers regarding capital budgeting. It discusses:
1) The goals of financial managers to maximize shareholder value by selecting projects with positive net present value (NPV). NPV measures the incremental cash flows of projects discounted at the cost of capital.
2) The distinction between accounting profits and cash flows that are relevant for capital budgeting. Cash flows consider the timing of cash inflows and outflows while accounting adjusts for accruals.
3) The concept of incremental cash flows which are the difference in cash flows from undertaking a project versus not undertaking it. Only incremental cash flows are considered in the analysis.
4) A detailed example is
The document discusses various capital budgeting techniques used to evaluate investment projects. It defines key terms like capital budgeting, net present value (NPV), internal rate of return (IRR), payback period, accounting rate of return, profitability index, and modified internal rate of return (MIRR). Examples are provided to demonstrate how to use these methods to calculate NPV, IRR, payback period, and profitability index for investment projects. The modified IRR is also introduced as an alternative to regular IRR in situations where IRR may not provide a unique solution.
Fonderia di torino case study group1_2016Cynthia Hanna
Fonderia di Torino is considering purchasing a new automated molding machine to reduce costs and improve production quality. The initial investment is €1.01 million but after accounting for the sale of old machines, the net cost is €813,296. Using a weighted average cost of capital of 9.86%, the net present value of the investment is positive at €22,916, indicating it would be profitable. While there may be layoff costs for workers on old machines, the company would still profit even after paying one year of salaries. Sensitivity analysis shows the investment remains profitable even if inflation increases to 5% annually. Non-financial benefits also support the new machine purchase.

This document provides an introduction to calculating net present value (NPV) for real estate investment projects. NPV is the standard technique used to determine if a project is worth undertaking. The example provided calculates the NPV for a hypothetical investment in a £1,000,000 London property that will be rented to students. The calculation discounts future cash flows like rental income and property sale proceeds at a target 10% annual return. The resulting NPV is negative, indicating the investment should be rejected based on the assumptions. NPV analysis requires estimating cash inflows and outflows over time and discounting them to determine a project's present value.
This document contains solutions to problems involving capital budgeting techniques. Problem P9-11 involves calculating the internal rate of return (IRR) for three projects - Project A has an IRR of 17%, Project B has an IRR between 8-9% (calculator solution of 8.62%), and Project C has an IRR between 25-26% (calculator solution of 25.41%). The IRR is the discount rate that makes the net present value of cash flows equal to zero. It is used to evaluate mutually exclusive projects and determine the maximum cost of capital for project acceptability.
The document discusses several capital budgeting techniques:
1) Payback period measures the number of years to recover the initial investment.
2) Discounted payback period applies a discount rate to cash flows.
3) Net present value discounts future cash flows to determine if the present value exceeds the initial cost.
4) Internal rate of return is the discount rate that makes the NPV equal to zero.
5) Modified internal rate of return considers the cost of reinvested cash flows.

It provides an example project with initial outlay, operating cash flows, tax rate, salvage value, and cash flows over 4 years. It calculates NPV, IRR, MIRR, and payback for the example project. The document also discusses making decisions between mutually exclusive projects using replacement chains and equivalent annual annuity analysis.
There are various types of costs that must be considered when making decisions. Relevant costs differ among alternatives and can be changed by management decisions. Irrelevant costs cannot be changed by decisions. Sunk costs occurred in the past and do not affect future decisions. Shut down costs continue even when production is temporarily stopped. Opportunity costs represent the value of the next best alternative forgone. Differential costs are increases or decreases in costs due to changes in activity levels or processes. Marginal costs include variable costs. Replacement costs are current purchase prices of identical assets. Committed costs cannot be avoided in the short run once incurred. Avoidable costs can be saved by choosing an alternative option.

The recent developments at the Nairobi Stock Exchange include growth in the bond market, demutualization of the NSE, issues regarding corporate governance of stock brokers, and increased capital requirements for market players. Demutualization converted the NSE from a member-owned organization to a publicly-traded company, providing benefits like improved governance and access to capital but also risks like conflicts of interest. Corporate governance of brokers is regulated by the CMA and NSE to maintain standards and protect investors. Higher capital requirements and other reforms aim to modernize the market but also pose challenges for compliance and costs. Overall the changes seek to develop the industry but careful management is needed to realize opportunities and address risks.
This document contains 9 practice problems related to capital budgeting. Problem 9 provides details on a project being considered by Acme Mfg including the probability distribution of annual cash flows under different scenarios. Based on the coefficient of variation of NPV, the risk-adjusted discount rate for the project would be 12%. Using this rate, the expected NPV is negative $32.35 so the project should be rejected.
The document provides an example to calculate net present value (NPV) and payback period (PBP). It defines key terms like present value, future value, rate of interest, number of years.

Capital budgeting refers to the process of evaluating long-term investment projects. There are various techniques used to evaluate projects, including payback period, net present value (NPV), internal rate of return (IRR), and profitability index. The case study examines whether a company should replace its existing equipment that has a book value of $0 and market value of $15,000 with new equipment costing $90,000. Calculating NPV and IRR, the new equipment has a positive NPV of $13,068 and an IRR of 15.7%, which exceeds the cost of capital of 12%. Therefore, the new equipment should be purchased to replace the old equipment.
This document discusses key concepts for making capital investment decisions using discounted cash flow analysis. It covers that incremental after-tax cash flows rather than accounting earnings should be considered. Sunk costs and opportunity costs are important factors. Side effects like cannibalism and erosion of existing products also matter. There are different approaches to estimating cash flows such as top-down or tax shield methods. Special cases like cost-cutting proposals, setting bid prices, and investments with unequal lives require additional considerations in the analysis.
BlueBookAcademy.com Explains Capital Budgetingbluebookacademy
Lets run through the principles of capital budgeting, making sound financial decisions to allocate resources and finances effectively. Capital budgeting is widely used in corporate finance, project appraisal and many other applications. We cover the important concepts of net present values (NPV) and internal rates of return (IRR).
It is the process of considering alternative capital projects and selecting those alternatives that provide the most profitable return on available funds.
Examples of capital projects include land, buildings, equipment and other major fixed asset items.
This document covers various capital budgeting techniques including net present value (NPV), internal rate of return (IRR), payback period, discounted payback period, average accounting return, and profitability index. It provides examples and explanations of how to calculate each metric and compares their advantages and disadvantages. It emphasizes that NPV is the best method since it incorporates the time value of money and considers all cash flows rather than just the initial period. The document also highlights potential issues with techniques like IRR when projects have multiple rates of return or non-conventional cash flows.
This document provides an overview of capital budgeting and cash flow analysis for investment projects. It defines key terms like capital expenditures, sunk costs, opportunity costs, and discusses how to estimate cash flows, including operating, terminal, and tax cash flows. It emphasizes the importance of using relevant cash flows to evaluate whether projects increase shareholder wealth.
Okay, let's calculate this step-by-step:
* Salvage value of the asset = $600,000
* Book value of the asset in year 4 = $500,000
* Gain on sale of asset = Salvage value - Book value = $600,000 - $500,000 = $100,000
* Tax rate = 30%
* Tax on gain = Gain x Tax rate = $100,000 x 30% = $30,000
* After-tax salvage value = Salvage value - Tax on gain = $600,000 - $30,000 = $570,000
Therefore, the after-tax salvage value of the asset is $570,
Capital budgeting is the process of evaluating long-term investments to maximize shareholder wealth. It involves assessing projects that require fixed assets operating for over one year. The key evaluation techniques are payback period, net present value (NPV), and internal rate of return (IRR), with NPV preferred as it considers total cash flows over time. NPV accepts projects when the present value of inflows exceeds outflows, while IRR accepts projects when the rate of return exceeds the cost of capital.
This document discusses various topics related to making capital investment decisions, including relevant cash flows for projects, cash flows from accounting numbers, MACRS tax depreciation rules, and sensitivity analysis. It provides examples of calculating net present value from pro forma financial statements and cash flows. It emphasizes that actual future cash flows are unknown and discusses using scenario and sensitivity analysis to account for forecasting risk when evaluating projects.
This document discusses various methods for financial analysis and project selection. It describes numeric models such as net present value (NPV), internal rate of return (IRR), payback period, accounting rate of return (ARR), and return on investment (ROI). It also discusses non-numeric models like sacred cow, operating necessity, and competitive necessity. The key techniques in numeric models are then explained in more detail, including discounting cash flows, calculating NPV, determining payback periods, and how to use these models to evaluate investment projects. Examples are provided to illustrate how to apply these financial analysis methods.
This chapter discusses tools for analyzing and evaluating project risks and outcomes, including scenario analysis, sensitivity analysis, break-even analysis, operating leverage, and capital rationing. Scenario and sensitivity analysis examine how changes in variables like revenues and costs impact a project's NPV. There are three types of break-even analysis: accounting, cash flow, and financial. Operating leverage measures how fixed costs affect changes in operating cash flow from changes in sales. Capital rationing refers to limits on available resources that require prioritizing projects based on metrics like profitability index.
The document discusses capital budgeting, which refers to investment decisions organizations make regarding large capital projects or assets. It covers several key aspects of capital budgeting including: the importance of these decisions given factors like large amounts of money involved and long-term impact; various capital budgeting techniques used to evaluate projects like payback period, net present value (NPV), and internal rate of return (IRR); and how to apply these techniques to calculate metrics and determine which projects to accept.
WEEK 13MAKING CAPITAL INVESTMENT DECISIONSRELEVANT.docxjessiehampson
WEEK 13
MAKING CAPITAL INVESTMENT DECISIONS
RELEVANT CASH FLOWS
• The cash flows that should be included
in a capital budgeting analysis are
those that will only occur (or not occur)
if the project is accepted
• These cash flows are called incremental
cash flows
• The stand-alone principle allows us to
analyze each project in isolation from
the firm simply by focusing on
incremental cash flows
ASKING THE RIGHT QUESTION
• You should always ask yourself “Will this cash
flow occur ONLY if we accept the project?”
▪ If the answer is “yes,” it should be included in the
analysis because it is incremental
▪ If the answer is “no,” it should not be included in the
analysis because it will occur anyway
▪ If the answer is “part of it,” then we should include
the part that occurs because of the project
COMMON TYPES OF CASH FLOWS
• Sunk costs – costs that have accrued in the past
• Opportunity costs – costs of lost options
• Side effects
▪ Positive side effects – benefits to other projects
▪ Negative side effects – costs to other projects
• Changes in net working capital
• Financing costs
• Taxes
PRO FORMA STATEMENTS AND
CASH FLOW
• Capital budgeting relies heavily on pro forma
accounting statements, particularly income
statements
• Computing cash flows – refresher
▪ Operating Cash Flow (OCF) =
EBIT + depreciation – taxes
▪ OCF = Net income + depreciation
(when there is no interest expense)
▪ Cash Flow From Assets (CFFA) =
OCF – net capital spending (NCS) – changes in

MORE ON NWC
• Why do we have to consider changes in NWC
separately?
▪ GAAP requires that sales be recorded on the income
statement when made, not when cash is received
▪ GAAP also requires that we record cost of goods
sold when the corresponding sales are made,
whether we have actually paid our suppliers yet
▪ Finally, we have to buy inventory to support sales,
although we haven’t collected cash yet
DEPRECIATION
• The depreciation expense used for capital
budgeting should be the depreciation
schedule required by the IRS for tax
purposes
• Depreciation itself is a non-cash expense;
consequently, it is only relevant because it
affects taxes
• Depreciation tax shield = D × T
▪ D = depreciation expense
▪ T = marginal tax rate
COMPUTING DEPRECIATION
• Straight-line depreciation
▪ D = (Initial cost – salvage) / number of years
▪ Very few assets are depr ...
This document discusses various investment appraisal techniques used to evaluate capital investment projects. It describes return on capital employed (ROCE), payback period, net present value, and internal rate of return. ROCE compares profits to capital invested to assess investment efficiency. Payback period calculates the years to recover initial costs from cash flows. Internal rate of return identifies the discount rate where net present value equals zero. The document provides formulas, decision rules, examples, and advantages/disadvantages of each technique.
Cash flow estimation ppt @ bec doms on financeBabasab Patil
The document discusses estimating cash flows for capital budgeting projects. It explains that cash flow estimation involves forecasting sales, costs, expenses, assets needed, depreciation, and taxes over time. The general process is the same for new projects, expansions, and replacements, but replacements typically require less estimation. Key steps are outlined for estimating cash flows for new ventures and replacements, including identifying incremental impacts and dealing with subjective estimates.
This document discusses key financial concepts used to evaluate business investment decisions, including cash flow, net present value (NPV), internal rate of return (IRR), payback period, and discount rate. It provides examples of how to calculate NPV, IRR, payback period using cash flows with different time periods and discount rates. The document also presents a sample exercise calculating these metrics to analyze the potential costs savings and profitability of a $10 million investment proposal aimed at reducing water and energy consumption for a food company.

This document discusses project cash flow analysis for a manufacturing company. It provides definitions for different types of costs including direct materials, direct labor, manufacturing overhead, non-manufacturing overhead, marketing, and administrative costs. It also defines fixed, variable, and mixed costs. An example is provided to calculate average unit cost. The document then provides an example cash flow analysis for a project to install a new computer control system over 5 years. It shows the income statement, cash flow statement, and calculates that the project has a 22.55% internal rate of return, making it justified above the 15% minimum acceptable rate of return.

3. Goals of the financial manager
The manager is an agent of the investors of the firm.
Therefore the manager should be concerned with
satisfying the demands of these investors.
What do investor’s want?
How can you make decisions as to what project to
accept so all investors will agree with you? Capital
budgeting answers this question.
The NPV method measures the amount by which the
value of the firm will increase upon acceptance of the
project
The general principal is that we measure incremental,
after tax, cash flows.
4. Cash Flows
While accountants focus on net income,
shareholders would be more interested in net cash
flows.
These two are not the same, because of the
presence of non-cash revenues and expenses.
To appreciate why we make this distinction, consider
the tasks of finance and then consider the tasks of
accounting.

5. Accounting vs Finance Data
Finance measures cash flows….
Cash out (+)
Cash in (-)
We want to account for the timing of these cash
flows as we want to account for the time value of
money
6. Accounting vs Finance Data
Accounting measures periodic performance….
Cash out (+)
Cash in (-)
Difficult to work out how well the firm is doing.
- - +
+ +
7. Accounting vs Finance Data
Accounting adjusts cash flows….
Cash out (+)
Cash in (-)
We want to measure periodic performance so we
allocate cash flows to the period upon which they
produce a benefit: this is the essence of accrual
accounting
8. As a practical matter..
We get our information from the accounting
information system
Therefore we adjust accounting information by adding
back non-cash expenses, typically we add back
depreciation.
However, please note we do initially work with
depreciation because depreciation is an expense for tax
purposes.
Therefore we work out the deprecation expense, then
deduct for taxes, and then add back depreciation to the
after tax cash flows.
9. Incremental Cash Flows
The general principle is simple: A relevant cash flow
for a project changes the firm’s future cash flow.
As relevant cash flows are defined in terms of
changes, or increments to the firm’s existing cash flow,
they are called incremental cash flows.
Thus incremental cash flows is the difference
between a firm’s future cash flows with a project and
those without a project.
10. Stand alone Principle
It would be difficult to calculate the future
total cash flows to the firm with or without a
project
We need to focus only on the project’s
resulting incremental cash flow. This is called
stand alone principle.
We shall be interested in comparing the cash
flows from this mini firm with the cost of
acquiring it.
Advantage: Evaluating the proposed project
purely on its own merits.
11. Sunk Costs
• A sunk cost is a cost we have already paid.
• Such a cost can not be changed by the decision today
to accept or reject a project. It is not incremental.
• Such a cost is not relevant to the decision at hand.
• For example: A company employed a consultant to
provide advice. Now we are to decide whether to
accept the project or not. The fee is a sunk cost: it
had been paid and does not depend on whether the
project is actually launched or not.
12. Opportunity Costs
• An opportunity cost requires us to give up a benefit.
• So opportunity costs are incremental.
• A common situation arises in which a firm already owns
some of the assets a proposed project will be using.
• Opportunity Cost Definition: The most valuable
alternative use of an asset is the measure of its
opportunity cost.
13. Opportunity Costs: Example
• Suppose we plan to convert an old cotton mill into
apartments. We bought the mill years ago for £100,000.
• If we undertake this project, there will be no direct cash
outflow associated with buying the old mill, because we
already own it. So at first it does not look incremental.
• But using the mill for the apartment complex has an
opportunity cost because we give up the valuable
opportunity to do something else with the mill. Suppose the
best alternate use is to sell it.
• The fact that we paid £100,000 is a sunk cost and not
relevant.
• The opportunity cost that we charge the project is what the
mill would sell for today because this this is the amount we
give up by using the mill instead of selling it.
14. Another example
• A proposal to make a newly-developed product offers an
NPV of £3m.
• An alternative is for the firm to sell the patent for £4m
to another firm for it to make the product.
• NPV £3m
• Opportunity cost £4m
• NPV -£1m
15. Side effects
• Incremental cash flows for a project include all the
resulting changes in the firm’s future cash flows.
• It would not be unusual for a project to have a side
effect or spill over effects both good and bad.
16. Side effects (Example)
• i.e. in 2010 the time between release of a film and the
release of the DVD had shrunk to 98 days, compared
with 200 days 10 years earlier.
• This shortened release is blamed for at least part of the
decline in average movie Theatre Box Office revenue.
• This is an example of erosion, a negative side effect.
• Retailers cheered the move, because it was credited
with increasing DVD sales.
• This is an example of a positive spillover.
• So the decision to change the timing of DVD sales
needs to consider both the negative and positive side
effects.
17. Erosion
• Negative impact on the cash flow of an
existing product from the introduction of a
new product is called erosion.
• EXAMPLE: One of the Walt Disney Company’s
concern when it build Euro Disney was that
the new park would drain visitors from the
Florida park.
• Presumes the firm has some degree of
monopoly power.
18. Spill over effects (Example)
• Hewlett Packard was not too bothered when the
price of a printer that sold for £500 - £600 in 1994
declined approximately £70 in 2012.
• This is not surprising once you consider the positive
spill over.
• HP realised that the big money was in the
consumables that printer owners buy to keep their
printers running, such as inkjet cartridges and special
paper.
19. Financing Costs
• In analysing a proposed investment we shall not include
interest paid or any other financing costs such as
dividends or principal paid in the cash flows of the
project, even though these are incremental cash flows.
• This is because we account for the cost of capital, which
includes interest payments and dividends, in the
discount rate we used to find the NPV of the project.
20. Detailed example of how to calculate NPV
The general principal is that we measure incremental,
after tax, cash flows.
Building and land that we purchased a few years ago
for a total of £120,000.
Now has a market value of £90,000 for the building
and £50,000 for the land.
Net of depreciation the book value of the building is
now £100,000 and is depreciated at a 10% declining
balance rate.
In 10 years, the value of the land and the building is
estimated to be £75,000 and £70,000 respectively.
21. Example continued
-Price of widgets £12, expected sales 20,000 per year.
-Widget machine cost £200,000, useful life is 10 years, salvage
value of £30,000 after 10 years.
-Tax: Flat income tax of 40% (no capital gains tax), investment
subsidy on machinery of 10% of capital cost, tax depreciation on
machine is at a 25% and on building at a 10% declining balance
rate.
-Per Widget cost breakdown
(From Cost Accountants)-Labour £6.00
-Materials 3.00
-Accounting Depreciation 1.00
-allocation of fixed overhead 2.00
-Interest expense 1.00
Total £13.00
-New Working capital £50,000
-Cost of capital 10%
22. The five steps of the NPV method
1. Estimate the incremental investment
opportunity costs of resources used
payment and installation cost of new equipment
salvage value of old equipment
tax effects e.g. investment subsidies
changes in the level of Net Working Capital
2. Determine intermediate net incremental after tax
cash flows
23. Steps 3 to 5
3) Estimate end of project cash flows
salvage values
return of working capital
terminal costs e.g. environmental cleanup,
severance pay, pension costs
4) discount the incremental after tax cash flows of
steps 2 and 3 (and 1 too, if applicable) to the
present time using the opportunity cost of capital
5) determine the NPV
27. Making sense of NPV
What does this -£2,906 mean?
It means that according to your analysis this project
will decrease the value of your firm by £2,906 . This
happens because the project is estimated to provide
a return that is less than the cost of capital. NPV
operationalizes the goal of maximising the value of
the firm.
How comfortable are you with this analysis?
What do you see as the potential problems?
Assumptions: Sensitivity Analysis or Scenario
Analysis (Consistency of assumptions) Next topic
28. What is the IRR of this project?
IRR = 9.844% (Accept or reject?)
How to find? Trial and error.
Since IRR < Cost of Capital, you reject
Rationale: if IRR < Cost of Capital, then the
project’s rate of return is less than its cost.

29. Interest rate
NPV
NPV =0
Interest rate = IRR
Plotting the NPV against
changing interest rates
Note the inverse relation between the interest rate and value
30. A note on inflation
To deal with inflation, there is a general rule.
Discount nominal cash flows with a nominal discount rate
Or discount real cash flows with a real discount rate.
So which would you prefer to adjust, the discount
rate or the cash flows?
Note that by default, the cost of capital will
automatically include the impact of inflation.
31. Adjust discount rate for inflation
Discount rates already include an inflation
premium.
Therefore do not adjust cash flows for inflation,
but reduce the discount rate by the rate of
inflation.
We need to work out the size of the inflation
premium that is already included in the discount
rate and take it out of the discount rate.
But small errors can lead to large changes in the
NPV.
32. Adjust cash flows for inflation
More work since you need to increase all the future
cash flows for inflation. (Leave the discount rate
alone)
But information revealed maybe valuable.
For instance, you may find out that revenues may be
projected to increase by less than the rate of
inflation, while material costs maybe projected to
increase at a rate greater than the rate of inflation.
This would suggest that you look at re-engineering
your product rather than abandoning it.
33. Abandonment problem
For any number of reasons the sale value or
abandonment value of a project maybe greater than
the PV of continued use by the firm.
Take the example of a supermarket.
At any point in time you always have two choices,
1. continue to operate the supermarket and thereby gain
supermarket cash flows
2. abandon the supermarket and get the abandonment
value (sell the supermarket site).
Once PV of 2 > PV of 1, do you immediately abandon?
