CHAPTER CAPITAL BUDGETING−PART I 7-1 Risk and Capital Investments Colgate faces lower risk than J&J because it is expanding production of an existing, and successful, product The major risk is that the product will become less popular and sales will not materialize The new plant could also be too costly, but that seems unlikely as the technology to make consumer products is well-established J&J faces risks that the drug will not prove efficacious, that the Food and Drug Administration will not approve it, or that another company will develop a better drug One reason we use this example is to make the point that R&D is just like any other investment, except that no depreciation is involved 7-2 Payback and Risk Either voyage is acceptable, but most students will probably select the shorter, safer one A lot can happen to a ship on a long voyage−storms, piracy, or collisions with icebergs or rocks Considering the hazards, who wouldn't feel a lot safer tying up his or her money for one year rather than five despite the advantage of the longer voyage as determined under the normal techniques of analysis? Whether you would choose to invest in the one-year or the fiveyear opportunity depends on your attitude about risk and return Because of its emphasis on the rapidity of return of investment, the payback method of evaluation gives higher priority to the one-year voyage 7-3 Government Actions and Capital Investment Investment will increase because net cash flows will increase and more projects will meet DCF criteria Some students might ask about the value of depreciation deductions, which will fall, but after-tax cash flows from savings or higher sales will more than offset lower tax shields Investment will increase because cost of capital will decrease investments will meet companies’ capital budgeting criteria More Investments will increase because cash savings from depreciation will be immediate rather than spread out over the life of an asset You might wish to discuss ACRS and MACRS at this point, perhaps pointing out that lives for tax purposes are significantly shorter than economic lives for most assets Investment should increase as it becomes profitable to substitute capital for labor Investments will increase because as labor becomes costlier, companies will substitute capital, just as in item We tried to be very explicit about the effects in this question because we have used it as an exam question and gotten disappointing results Most students say that investments will decrease because the company will have less cash to invest, which ignores external financing 7-1 7-4 Capital Budgeting−Effects of Events An increase in labor rates makes labor-cost-saving projects more attractive, but makes increasing output less attractive Increasing output might still be attractive, but not as much as it would have been with lower labor costs First, we have to assume that we will either reduce prices to meet the competition, or lose volume If we expect to hold prices and lose volume, cost-saving investments become less desirable because they affect fewer units (assuming that the savings are in variable costs) Certainly, decisions to increase output will be much less desirable because the volume will not be as high as originally forecast If we meet the price reductions, decisions to increase output will be less desirable because the contribution margin from the additional sales will be lower than otherwise Cost-reduction investments will probably be unaffected Investments that reduce costs become more attractive, because cost reduction is critical in mature industries Investments that increase output become less attractive because the volume increases will be less than anticipated 7-5 Qualitative Concerns General Note to the Instructor: The purposes of this and the following question are (a) to encourage students to think about both the quantitative and qualitative aspects of making decisions, and (b) to reduce students' concentration on the mechanics of specific analytical techniques The two questions should probably be considered together, since one deals with rejecting a project that is economically acceptable while the other deals with accepting a project deemed economically unacceptable We introduce capital rationing, sensitivity analysis, and mutually exclusive alternatives in Chapter We leave to courses in managerial finance the task of discussing the significance and calculation of cost of capital and the use of risk-adjusted discount rates Nevertheless, we have found that, if pushed, most groups of students will come up with ideas encompassing most of the problematic aspects of capital budgeting decisions not covered in the current chapter The list of reasons we offer below is not all-inclusive but generalizes the points made by past students a Top-level managers might object, in principle, to owning a tobacco farm (Chapter noted that convictions of managers could affect their decisions.) b Estimates about the success of the farm might vary widely and include a significant probability of a large loss (At this point, students might express a lack of confidence in the estimates producing the positive NPV.) The furor over tobacco in recent years lends an air of uncertainty as to the future of the industry c The company might have many other projects with higher returns and not be able to fund all projects that are acceptable (Students are usually quick to raise the issue of limited funds, or capital rationing.) d The company might use other screens for its projects, such as a minimum IRR or a maximum payback period, and this project might not meet those cutoffs (Chapter suggests that a company might establish such cutoffs.) 7-2 The general note at the beginning also applies here, but this introduces some additional ideas a The project involves a product the company's top managers believe is needed to round out its product line (This reason relates to an overall issue and could prevail even if analysis of the project gives full consideration to complementary effects.) b The project could involve a change in the manufacturing process to meet mandated pollution or hazardous-waste disposal guidelines (This answer assumes that reasonable alternatives for meeting the guidelines produce lower IRRs, and that management has consciously decided the company should not abandon the area of its business affected by the mandated guidelines.) c The project could involve improving employee relations (e.g., a cafeteria, a recreation facility) or some other issue on which the company might have already committed itself to making changes with the expectation of selecting projects with the "lowest cost." (A project showing a 20% IRR is clearly better than one showing an 8% return.) d The project might advance an important strategy If the company's reputation for high-quality products includes a role as an innovator, the project might be accepted to retain the company's competitive edge, despite the company's inability to quantify the advantages of maintaining that role If reducing cycle time, or improving logistics, is critically important, the company might well accept a project that advances such a strategy, even without favorable numbers e Managers might believe that the combination of an attractive payback period, relatively low risk, and their gross assessments of positive and negative nonquantifiable factors offsets its lower IRR (Most students are likely to come up with this technique-related answer.) 7-6 Discounting (a) (15 minutes) About 12% Investment Divided by cash flow Present value factor annuity of years Factor for 12% (b) About 12% Investment Divided by cash flow Present value factor, years Factor for 12% 7-7 $60,000 $12,000 5.000 4.968 (a) $9,500 [($30,000 x 5.650) -

(c) Another factor to consider in connection with the increased potential for injury to employees is the potential for damage to the company's public image and reputation if the public became aware that the company refused to install new equipment (d) The cost savings are likely to be understated by assuming that the premium differential this year applies to all future years If installation of a new system is delayed, premiums might increase even further, and, at some point, coverage might not be available at virtually any price Note to the Instructor: In this slight revision of a problem used in previous editions, we tried to make obvious the issue of risk of harm to employees by describing the insurance coverage and asking specifically about "other" factors It's likely that a few students still will not recognize that issue Some who see it will point out that $8,051 is a small price 7-11 to pay for a serious injury, let alone the life of even one employee Such an assertion presents the opportunity for class discussion of the many situations when efforts are made to place a value on a human life (e.g., court cases and allocations of funds available for medical services) Students should be encouraged to avoid making quick personal judgments about the relative size of some known expenditure (or receipt) Such judgments are especially to be avoided when, as indicated in the parenthetical material in item (b), facts are available to support at least a preliminary assessment of relative magnitude In this case, a preliminary assessment reduces the need to address the more general and more difficult-task of placing a specific value on human suffering Absent analytical evidence that the cost is "relatively small" for the entity in question, a student's assertion to that effect is a personal matter For example, had the negative NPV been, say, $200 million, individual judgments would surely have differed Professor Don Lucy shared with us a suggestion by one of his students that the company tell employees it is spending $200,000 to make them safer 7-25 Employment Options Bob prefers the $2,000,000 for 10 years at his 10% discount rate Pretax flow Less tax at 30%

not surprising that their interests are opposed The team's higher discount rate leads it to prefer lower flows over a longer period, and its higher tax rate works in the same direction Even if they used the same discount rate, their responses could differ because of the tax differences Note to the Instructor: You might extend this assignment by asking whether the team might benefit by raising

return to the stockholders, and the company must earn a satisfactory return for all its investors, both creditors and stockholders Note also that the source of debt capital for a specific project seldom will provide 100% of the funds needed for an investment, which means owners must provide the rest and will expect a return on their investment Moreover, both creditors and stockholders monitor a company's solvency by watching such factors as the ratio of debt to equity, and the cost of obtaining capital from either source is likely to rise as a company takes on more debt (b) BDR should not include the annual interest payments in computing annual cash flow Discounting provides for both return of capital and a return on capital at least equal to the discount rate Including interest in the cash flows would provide twice for the cost of funds Note to the Instructor: In covering requirement (a) we try to avoid extended discussion of the concept of cost of capital One idea that seems to make sense to introductory students is that money is a fungible good Applying this idea, a company obtaining funds from a variety of sources has a pool of money, no part of which is identifiable by its source To avoid questions that might be raised later by students studying real estate, we usually point out, after covering (a) and (b), that the analysis of single-project real estate investments for potential equity investors is a special case of investment evaluation (a) If the applicable tax rate is constant, accelerating depreciation for tax purposes does not change the total taxes paid However, the higher tax deductions in earlier years would shift the cash outflows for taxes to later years, so the present value of the cash outflows would be lower and the NPV of the project higher (b) The payback period would be shorter because the net cash inflows would be higher in earlier years of the project's life 7-28 Manufacturing Cells, JIT (20 minutes) $2,536.4 thousand, from

capital budgeting decision 7-29 Retirement Options (10-15 minutes) Waddlum's major concern is how long he will live after retirement Spending $80,000 per year, he will go broke in the ninth year if he takes the lump-sum payment Thus, if he lived longer than nine years, he would be better off taking the $60,000 per year and living less comfortably than he prefers If he took the lump-sum payment, he would use $80,000 for expenses the first year, leaving $420,000 to be invested at 10% That investment allows nine withdrawals of $80,000, determined as follows Investment Divided by annual withdrawals Equals present value factor for annuity $420,000 $ 80,000 5.25 The number of periods in the 10% column with the factor closest to 5.25 is eight (a factor of 5.335), which means he could make nine withdrawals of $80,000 (including the first) plus one of about $65,000 in the last year The $80,000 used immediately, plus the eight future withdrawals covers nine years of retirement Note to the Instructor: This problem was made relatively simple by leaving out the many other options For example, pension plans provide for payments to survivors after the death of the retiree Class discussion of this exercise can emphasize how very difficult real-life decisions can be where an estate or other provision for survivors is desired Still, determining the number of years you can live as you wish from the lump-sum investment seems to us a sensible first step in evaluating the options 7-30 Expanding a Product Line (30 minutes) The desk should be introduced The net present value is $92,200 Sales

that financing and investing decisions should be separated This is an apparent exception, though we not view a year-to-year lease as a financing arrangement Note also that the company has already decided to acquire the air pumps Moreover, revenues exceed operating costs and lease payments, so acquiring the pumps is profitable Hence, the only question is how to acquire them (Some students will not see this point and will spend time trying to develop separate NPV analyses for the two alternatives.) 7-32 Charitable Donation (15-20 minutes) $976,404 ($6,000,000/6.145, the present value factor

Students should still see that the NPV is the present value of all cash flows For convenience, the chapter refers to future flows and investment 7-36 Capital Budgeting by a Municipality (20 minutes)

spending $500 each gives $100,000,000 in spending per year, and the city collects 1% of this sum, or $1,000,000 Like all not-for-profit entities, a city is not trying to provide a return to owners as a business entity must Rather, its purpose is to provide services for which the residents and others will pay and from which they will receive benefits Thus, the only element of cost of capital is the interest rate Note to the Instructor: We ask students whether the investment should be made even if it would not directly pay for itself (say if the cost were $28,000,000) Some suggest that there are likely to be fringe benefits to the city's businesses Some suggest that having the convention center could stimulate tax receipts by attracting other tax-paying businesses to the city That suggestion prompts other students to point out the likelihood of additional costs (e.g., for added police and fire protection) if the city grows as a result of the center There are likely to be some students who will argue that a convention center and possible growth are the last things a city needs Overcrowding, congestion, pollution, and other undesirable features could emerge from the building of the center Additionally the estimates are very subjective Hence the initial question eventually leads students to recognize the possibility of conflict between qualitative and quantitative factors 7-37

note the relatively small difference between the NPVs and urge further consideration of qualitative factors that might tip the decision one way or the other The memo should emphasize that the preference was based on NPV rather than book rate of return, and it could point out that book rates of return overstate the differences between the two alternatives 7-38 Capital Budgeting for a

the machinery should be replaced now Similar machinery purchased now might yield a return greater than 16% What can be said is that if the machinery available now would cost $250,000, have a 10-year life with no salvage value, provide $69,000 in savings, and be depreciated using the straight-line method, it is unwise to buy it, though just barely 7-40 Purchase Commitment (20-25 minutes) The offer

that is less risky than those normally encountered by the firm The discount rate 7-20 should probably be the cost of capital, but using a lower rate might be desirable depending on the credit worthiness of Boa Company One could also argue that this type of investment is extremely risky taken as a whole because its success depends on estimates of the prices of a raw material the price of which is known to fluctuate greatly The problem provides the opportunity to discuss how managers might predict future prices of copper and to lead into the topic of sensitivity analysis in Chapter

the present values of two cash inflow options Both the costs and the quantity sold (number of subscription-years) are the same for the two subscription plans Hence, the magazine has no reason to offer the extended subscription at a rate that is not equivalent to what it would receive from a one-year subscription plus renewal $53.00, the present value of two $28 payments Yes, the NPV is $310.70 with

this assignment is familiar to students and to anyone else on mailing lists You might point out that advertising is a major source of revenue to magazines and that advertising rates depend to a great extent on paid circulation Therefore, the magazine could earn more, by way of higher ad rates, if offering a bargain two-year rate keeps subscribers for a longer time The company in this problem might be able to offer a two-year rate even lower than the $46.57 computed in requirement determined that the higher advertising rates commanded by the higher circulation would offset the lower rate 7-43
