Analysis of potential projects. Long-term decisions; involve large expenditures. Very important to firms future.

Steps in Capital Budgeting

n
n n n
Estimate cash flows (inflows & outflows). Assess risk of cash flows. Determine r = WACC for project. Evaluate cash flows.

Independent versus Mutually Exclusive Projects

n
Projects are:
n
independent, if the cash flows of one are unaffected by the acceptance of the other. mutually exclusive, if the cash flows of one can be adversely impacted by the acceptance of the other.

11
Rationale for the NPV Method

n
NPV = PV inflows Cost This is net gain in wealth, so accept project if NPV > 0. Choose between mutually exclusive projects on basis of higher positive NPV. Adds most value.
12
Using NPV method, which franchise(s) should be accepted?

n
If Franchises S and L are mutually exclusive, accept S because NPVs > NPVL. If S & L are independent, accept both; NPV > 0. NPV is dependent on cost of capital.
13
Internal Rate of Return: IRR

0 CF0 Cost 1 CF1 2 CF2 Inflows 3 CF3
IRR is the discount rate that forces PV inflows = cost. This is the same as forcing NPV = 0.
14
NPV: Enter r, Solve for NPV
t=0
CFt = NPV (1 + r)t
15
IRR: Enter NPV = 0, Solve for IRR
t=0
CFt =0 (1 + IRR)t
IRR is an estimate of the projects rate of return, so it is comparable to the YTM on a bond.

Or, with CFLO, enter CFs and press IRR = 9.70%.

18
Rationale for the IRR Method

n
If IRR > WACC, then the projects rate of return is greater than its cost-- some return is left over to boost stockholders returns. Example: WACC = 10%, IRR = 15%. So this project adds extra return to shareholders.
19
Decisions on Franchises S and L per IRR

n
If S and L are independent, accept both: IRRS > r and IRRL > r. If S and L are mutually exclusive, accept S because IRRS > IRRL. IRR is not dependent on the cost of capital used.
20
Construct NPV Profiles

n
Enter CFs in CFLO and find NPVL and NPVS at different discount rates:
r 0 5 10 15 20 NPVL 50 33 19 7 (4) NPVS 40 29 20 12 5

24
To Find the Crossover Rate

n
Find cash flow differences between the projects. See data at beginning of the case. Enter these differences in CFLO register, then press IRR. Crossover rate = 8.68%, rounded to 8.7%. Can subtract S from L or vice versa and consistently, but easier to have first CF negative. If profiles dont cross, one project dominates the other.
25
Two Reasons NPV Profiles Cross

n
Size (scale) differences. Smaller project frees up funds at t = 0 for investment. The higher the opportunity cost, the more valuable these funds, so high r favors small projects. Timing differences. Project with faster payback provides more CF in early years for reinvestment. If r is high, early CF especially good, NPVS > NPVL.
26
Reinvestment Rate Assumptions

n
n n
NPV assumes reinvest at r (opportunity cost of capital). IRR assumes reinvest at IRR. Reinvest at opportunity cost, r, is more realistic, so NPV method is best. NPV should be used to choose between mutually exclusive projects.
27
Modified Internal Rate of Return (MIRR)

n
MIRR is the discount rate that causes the PV of a projects terminal value (TV) to equal the PV of costs. TV is found by compounding inflows at WACC. Thus, MIRR assumes cash inflows are reinvested at WACC.
28

MIRR = 16.5%
3 158.1 TV inflows
MIRRL = 16.5%
To find TV with 12B: Step 1, Find PV of Inflows

n
First, enter cash inflows in CFLO register: CF0 = 0, CF1 = 10, CF2 = 60, CF3 = 80 Second, enter I/YR = 10. Third, find PV of inflows: Press NPV = 118.78
31
Step 2, Find TV of Inflows

n
Enter PV = -118.78, N = 3, I/YR = 10, PMT = 0. Press FV = 158.10 = FV of inflows.
32
Step 3, Find PV of Outflows

n
For this problem, there is only one outflow, CF0 = -100, so the PV of outflows is -100. For other problems there may be negative cash flows for several years, and you must find the present value for all negative cash flows.
33
Step 4, Find IRR of TV of Inflows and PV of Outflows

n
Enter FV = 158.10, PV = -100, PMT = 0, N = 3. Press I/YR = 16.50% = MIRR.
34
Why use MIRR versus IRR?

n
MIRR correctly assumes reinvestment at opportunity cost = WACC. MIRR also avoids the problem of multiple IRRs. Managers like rate of return comparisons, and MIRR is better for this than IRR.
35
Profitability Index
n
The profitability index (PI) is the present value of future cash flows divided by the initial cost. It measures the bang for the buck.

The number of years required to recover a projects cost, or how long does it take to get the businesss money back?

Strengths and Weaknesses of Payback

Strengths:

Provides an indication of a projects risk and liquidity. Easy to calculate and understand. Ignores the TVM. Ignores CFs occurring after the payback period. No specification of acceptable payback.

Normal vs. Nonnormal Cash Flows

n
Normal Cash Flow Project:

n
Cost (negative CF) followed by a series of positive cash inflows. One change of signs. Two or more changes of signs. Most common: Cost (negative CF), then string of positive CFs, then cost to close project. For example, nuclear power plant or strip mine.

Logic of Multiple IRRs

n
At very low discount rates, the PV of CF2 is large & negative, so NPV < 0. At very high discount rates, the PV of both CF1 and CF2 are low, so CF0 dominates and again NPV < 0. In between, the discount rate hits CF2 harder than CF1, so NPV > 0. Result: 2 IRRs.
48
Finding Multiple IRRs with Calculator

1. Enter CFs as before. 2. Enter a guess as to IRR by storing the guess. Try 10%: 10 STO IRR = 25% = lower IRR (See next slide for upper IRR)
49
Finding Upper IRR with Calculator

Now guess large IRR, say, 200: 200 STO IRR = 400% = upper IRR
50
When There are Nonnormal CFs and More than One IRR, Use MIRR
0 -800,000 1 5,000,000 2 -5,000,000
PV outflows @ 10% = -4,932,231.40. TV inflows @ 10% = 5,500,000.00. MIRR = 5.6%

51
Accept Project P?
n
NO. Reject because MIRR = 5.6% < r = 10%. Also, if MIRR < r, NPV will be negative: NPV = -$386,777.

54
Equivalent Annual Annuity Approach (EAA)

n
Convert the PV into a stream of annuity payments with the same PV. S: N=2, I/YR=10, PV=-4.132, FV = 0. Solve for PMT = EAAS = $2.38. L: N=4, I/YR=10, PV=-6.190, FV = 0. Solve for PMT = EAAL = $1.95. S has higher EAA, so it is a better project.
55
Put Projects on Common Basis

n
Note that Franchise S could be repeated after 2 years to generate additional profits. Use replacement chain to put on common life. Note: equivalent annual annuity analysis is alternative method.

59
Economic Life versus Physical Life

n
Consider another project with a 3-year life. If terminated prior to Year 3, the machinery will have positive salvage value. Should you always operate for the full physical life? See next slide for cash flows.
60

n n n
NPV(3 years) = -$123. NPV(2 years) = $215. NPV(1 year) = -$273.
63
Conclusions
n
The project is acceptable only if operated for 2 years. A projects engineering life does not always equal its economic life.
64
Choosing the Optimal Capital Budget

n
Finance theory says to accept all positive NPV projects. Two problems can occur when there is not enough internally generated cash to fund all positive NPV projects:
n n
An increasing marginal cost of capital. Capital rationing

65
Increasing Marginal Cost of Capital

n
Externally raised capital can have large flotation costs, which increase the cost of capital. Investors often perceive large capital budgets as being risky, which drives up the cost of capital.
(More...)
66
If external funds will be raised, then the NPV of all projects should be estimated using this higher marginal cost of capital.
67
Capital Rationing
n
Capital rationing occurs when a company chooses not to fund all positive NPV projects. The company typically sets an upper limit on the total amount of capital expenditures that it will make in the upcoming year.
(More...)
68
Reason: Companies want to avoid the direct costs (i.e., flotation costs) and the indirect costs of issuing new capital. Solution: Increase the cost of capital by enough to reflect all of these costs, and then accept all projects that still have a positive NPV with the higher cost of capital.
(More...)
69
Reason: Companies dont have enough managerial, marketing, or engineering staff to implement all positive NPV projects. Solution: Use linear programming to maximize NPV subject to not exceeding the constraints on staffing.
(More...)
70
Reason: Companies believe that the projects managers forecast unreasonably high cash flow estimates, so companies filter out the worst projects by limiting the total amount of projects that can be accepted. Solution: Implement a post-audit process and tie the managers compensation to the subsequent performance of the project. 71
