Chapter Outline
• The Capital budgeting decision
• Cash flows in Capital budgeting
• Payback method
• Net Present Value and Internal rate of Return
• Discount or cutoff rate as Cost of Capital
12-3
Capital Budgeting Decision – Administrative Considerations
• Involves planning of expenditures for a project with a minimum period of a year or longer
• Capital expenditure decision requires:– Extensive planning – Coordination of different departments
• These decisions would be affected because of uncertainties involved in:– Annual costs and inflows– Product life– Interest rates– Economic conditions– Technological changes
12-4
Capital Budgeting Decision – Administrative Considerations (cont’d)
• Steps in the decision-making process:– Search for and discovery of investment
opportunities– Collection of data– Evaluation and decision making– Reevaluation and adjustment
12-5
Capital Budgeting Procedures
12-6
Accounting Flows versus Cash Flows
• In capital budgeting decisions, emphasis is on cash flows rather than earnings– Depreciation (noncash expenditure) is added
back to profit to determine the amount of cash flow generated
• Example provided in the following slide
• Emphasis is on use of proper evaluation techniques to make best economic choices and assure long term wealth maximization
12-7
Cash Flow and Revised Cash Flow for Alston Corporation
Net earnings before and after taxes are zero, but the company has $20,000 cash in the bank
12-8
Methods of Ranking Investment Proposals
• Three methods used:– Payback method– Internal rate of return – Net present value
12-9
Payback Method
• Time required to recoup initial investment from Table 12-3: – Investment A is better– Investment A recoups $10,000 Initial Investment at the
end of the second year, while Investment B takes longer
12-10
Payback Method (cont’d)
• Advantages:– Easy to understand– Emphasizes liquidity– Useful in industries characterized by dynamic
technological developments
• Shortcomings:– Does not consider Time Value of Money– Ignores cash-flows after the cutoff period
• Fails to discern optimum or most economic solution to capital budgeting problem
12-11
Internal Rate of Return (Even Cash-Flows)
• Requires the determination of the yield on an investment that equates the cash outflows (cost) of an investment with subsequent cash inflows– Assuming that a $1,000 investment returns an annuity of
$244 per annum for five years– Provides an internal rate of return of 7% as indicated:
(Investment) = $1,000 = 4.1 (PVIFA)
(Annuity) $244
• The present value of an annuity (given in Appendix D) shows that the factor of 4.1 for five years indicates a yield of 7%
12-12
Internal Rate of Return - Uneven Cash-Flows
Cash Inflows (of $10,000 investment) Year Investment A Investment B 1……………… $5,000 $1,500 2……………… 5,000 2,000 3……………… 2,000 2,500 4……………… 5,000 5……………… 5,000
• To find a beginning value to start the first trial, the inflows are averaged out as though annuity was really being received
$5,000 5,000 2,000 $12,000 ÷ 3 = $4,000
12-13
Internal Rate of Return - Uneven Cash-Flows (cont’d)
• Dividing the investment by the ‘assumed’ annuity value in the previous step, we have:
(Investment) = $10,000 = 2.5 (PVIFA) (Annuity) $4,000• The first approximation (derived from Appendix D) of the internal rate of
return using: PVIFA factor = 2.5
n (period) = 3
• The factor falls between 9 and 10 percent
• Averaging would either understate or overstate the IRR by moving the cash-flows either to the end or beginning of the project
• Cash flows in early years are worth more and increase the return
12-14
Internal Rate of Return - Uneven Cash-Flows (cont’d)
• Using the trial and error approach, we use both 10% and 12% to arrive at the answer:
Year 10%1…….$5,000 X 0.909 = $4,5452…….$5,000 X 0.826 = 4,1303…….$2,000 X 0.751 = 1,502 $10,177
• At 10%, the present value of the inflows exceeds $10,000 – we therefore use a higher discount rate
Year 12%1…….$5,000 X 0.893 = $4,4642…….$5,000 X 0.797 = 3,9863…….$2,000 X 0.712 = 1,424 $9,874
• At 12%, the present value of the inflows is less than $10,000 – thus the discount rate is too high
12-15
Interpolation of the Results
• The internal rate of return is determined when the present value of the inflows (PVI) equals the present value of the outflows (PVO)
• The total difference in present values between 10% and 12% is $303
$10,177…… PVI @ 10% $10,177…….PVI @ 10% - 9,874…....PVI @ 12% - 10,000……(cost) $ 303 $ 177
• The solution is ($177/$303) percent of the way between 10 and 12 percent. Due to a 2% difference, the fraction is multiplied by 2% and the answer is added to 10% for the final answer of:
10% + ($177/$303) (2%) = 11.17% IRR
• In Investment B the same process will yield an answer of 14.33 percent.
12-16
Interpolation of the Results (cont’d)
• Use of internal rate of return requires calculated selection of Investment B in preference to Investment A, the conclusion being exactly the opposite under the payback method
• The final selection of any project will also depend on yield exceeding some minimum cost standard, such as cost of capital to the firm
Investment A Investment B Selection
Payback
method……. 2 years 3.8 years Quicker payback: “A”
Internal
Rate of
Return……… 11.17% 14.33% Higher yield: ”B”
12-17
Net Present Value
• Discounting back the inflows over the life of the investment to determine whether they equal or exceed the required investment– Basic discount rate is usually the cost of the
capital to the firm– Inflows must provide a return that at least equals
the cost of financing those returns

Comparison of Capital Budgeting Results
A summary of the various conclusions reached under the three methods is presented in the following table:
12-20
Selection Strategy
• For a project to be potentially accepted: – Profitability must equal or exceed cost of capital– Projects that are mutually exclusive:
• Selection of one alternative will preclude selection of any other alternative
– Projects that are not mutually exclusive:• Alternatives that provide a return in excess of cost of
capital will be selected
12-21
Selection Strategy (cont’d)
• In the case of prior Investment A and B, assuming a capital of 10%, Investment B would be accepted if the alternatives were mutually exclusive, while both would clearly qualify if they were not so, as depicted below:
• The IRR and NPV methods will call for the same decision with some exceptions
• Two rules:– If an investment has a positive NPV, its IRR will be in excess of the
cost of capital– In certain limited cases, however, the two methods may give
different answers in selecting the best investment
12-22
Reinvestment Assumption
• IRR– All inflows from a given investment can be reinvested at
the Internal Rate of Return (IRR)– May be unrealistic to assume that reinvestment can
occur at a equally high rate
• NPV– Makes the more conservative assumption that each
inflow can be reinvested at the cost of capital or discount rate
– Allows for certain consistency as inflows from each project are assumed to have the same investment opportunity
12-23
The Reinvestment Assumption – IRR and NPV
12-24
Modified Internal Rate of Return (MIRR)
• Combines reinvestment assumption of the NPV method with the IRR method
• MIRR is the discount rate that equates the terminal (final) value of the inflows with the investment
• In terms of a formula :
12-25
Modified Internal Rate of Return (cont’d)
• Assuming $10,000 produces the following inflows for the next three years:
• The cost of capital is 10%• Determining the terminal value of the inflows at a growth rate equal to
the cost of capital:
• To determine the MIRR:
PVIF = PV = $10,000 = .641 (Appendix B)
FV $15,610
12-26
Modified Internal Rate of Return (cont’d)
• Appendix B shows:– For a tabular value of .641, the Yield or MIRR is
16 percent– The conventional IRR computed would have
been 21 percent
• MIRR uses a more realistic assumption of re-investment at the cost of capital
12-27
Capital Rationing
• Artificial constraint set on the usage of funds that can be invested in a given period by Management
• Only those projects with the highest positive NPV are accepted.
• Reasons for capital rationing:– Fear of too much growth– Hesitation to use external sources of financing
• Capital rationing can hinder a firm from achieving maximum profitability
12-28
Net Present Value Profile
• A graphical representation of net present value of a project at different discount rates
• To apply the NPV profile, the following aspects need to be considered:– NPV at a zero discount rate– NPV as determined by a normal discount rate
(such as cost of capital)– IRR for the project
12-29
Net Present Value Profile – Graphic Representation
• Investment B is preferred as both NPV and IRR are higher in case of Investment B as compared to Investment A
12-30
Net Present Value Profile with Crossover
• Below the crossover point of 8.7% Investment B is preferred• Above the crossover point of 8.7% Investment C is preferred
12-31
The Rules of Depreciation
• Assets are classified into nine categories to determine allowable depreciation– Each class is referred to as Modified
Accelerated Cost Recovery System (MACRS) category
• Some references are also made to Asset Depreciation Range (ADR), or the expected physical life of the asset or class of assets

Actual Investment Decision - Example
• Assumption: – $50,000 depreciation (Table 12–10) of machinery with a six-year
productive life– Produces an income of $18,500 for first three years before
deductions for depreciation and taxes– In the last three years, income before depreciation and taxes will be
$12,000– Corporate tax rate taken at 35% and cost of capital 10%
– For each year:• The depreciation is subtracted from “Earnings before
depreciation and taxes” to arrive at Earnings before Taxes• Taxes then subtracted to determine Earnings after Taxes• Depreciation is added to earnings to arrive at Cash Flows

The Replacement Decision
• Investment decision for new technology
• Includes several additions to the basic investment situation– The sale of the old machine– Tax consequences
• Decision can be analyzed by: – Total analysis of both old and new machines– An incremental analysis of changes in cash-
flows between old and new machines
12-39
Sale of Old Asset
• The cash inflow from the sale of an old asset is based on the sales price as well as the related tax factors– To determine these tax factors, the book value
of the old asset is compared with the sales price to determine if there is a taxable gain or loss
• If there is a loss, it can be written off against other income for the corporation
• If there is a gain, it would be taxed at the corporation’s normal tax rate

Elective Expensing
• Businesses can write-off certain tangible properties in the purchased year for up to $250,000 under the 2008 Economic Stimulus Act
• Beneficial to small businesses: – Allowance is phased out dollar for dollar when
total property purchases exceed $800,000 in a year
