Document Summary

Many big capital projects require heavy investment in intangible assets. Cost of drug development are almost all research and testing. Capital investment project: any expenditure made in hope of generating more cash later. Net present value: difference between a project"s value and its cost. Instead of calculating npv companies can compare expected rate of return from investing in a project with the return that shareholders may earn on equivalent risk investments in capital market. Profitability index: selecting projects that have the highest npv per dollar invested. With interest rate of 7%, the pv of ,000 payoff from the office building is ,832. The pv is the only feasible price and the pv of the property is also its market price. Opportunity cost of capital: expected rate of return given up by investing in a project: if you committed ,000, that means your npv = ,832, npv = pv required investment.

Q6) Assume yourself as a financial analyst for the Great Land Company. Then, the director of capital budgeting asks you to analyse two proposed capital investments named Project A and Project B. Each project has a cost of 900,000 birr, and the cost of capital (the required rate of return) for each project is 10%. The information on the projects’ expected net cash flows are as follows with the present value of 1 birr at 10%.

Year	Cash flow of the projects in Birr		PV of 1birr at 10%
Year	Project A	Project B	PV of 1birr at 10%
0	- 900,000	- 900,000	1
1	400,000	245,000	0.909
2	350,000	245,000	0.826
3	250,000	245,000	0.751
4	150,000	245,000	0.683
5	100,000	245,000	0.621

Required:

Calculate each project’s payback period (PBP) and determine which project is preferable as per PBP results. (2 pts)
Calculate each project’s net present value (NPV). (2 Pts)
Determine and justify which project or projects should be accepted as per NPV results if they are independent projects. (2Pts).
Determine and justify which project or projects should be accepted as per NPV if they are mutually exclusive projects. (2Pts).
Calculate the internal rate of return (IRR) for each project and determine whether the projects are accepted or rejected as per IRR result and also determine which project is preferable based on IRR. (2Pts)

You are a financial analyst for the Waffle Company. The director of capital budgeting has asked you to analyze two proposed capital investments, Projects A and B. Each project has a cost of $50,000, and the cost of capital for each is 10%.

The projects’ expected net cash flows are as follows:

	Expected Net Cash Flows
Year	Project A	Project B
0	($50,000)	($50,000)
1	25,000	15,000
2	20,000	15,000
3	10,000	15,000
4	5,000	15,000
5	5,000	15,000

Calculate each project’s payback period, net present value (NPV), internal rate of return (IRR), modified internal rate of return (MIRR), and profitability index (PI).

Mr Yaqoob is a financial analyst for M/s Sheeraz & Co. The director of capital budgeting has asked Yaqoob to analyze two proposed capital investments, Projects X and Y. Each project has a cost of Rs. 5,000, and the cost of capital for each project is 10 percent. The projects’ expected net cash flows are as follows:

	Expected Net Cash Flows
Year	Project X	Project Y
0	Rs. (5000)	Rs. (5000)
1	3250	1750
2	1500	1750
3	1500	1750
4	500	1750

Calculate each project’s payback period, net present value (NPV), and internal rate of return (IRR). [3]
Which project or projects should be accepted if they are independent? [0.5]
Which project should be accepted if they are mutually exclusive? [0.5]

d. How might a change in the cost of capital produces a conflict between the NPV and IRR rankings of these two projects?
