alternatives exist for organizations to make their capital budgeting (CB) decisions or the alternative projects can be ranked in line with the benefits arrived in terms of profitability and the revenue generated. (Gitman‚ 2008). Net present value (NPV)‚ internal rate of return (IRR)‚ accounting rate of return (ARR) and PBK are generally described as the most commonly used CBTs. The two former techniques are based on the cash-flow concept and are usually categorized as sophisticated techniques. Bierman

Fonderia di Torino S.p.A. 1. Please assess the economic benefits of acquiring the Vulcan Mold-Maker machine. What is the initial outlay? What are the benefits over time? What is an appropriate discount rate? Does the net present value(NPV) warrant the investment in the machine? Initial Case Outlay Price of new machine (1‚010‚000) Current after-tax market value of old machine [130‚000+{(415‚807-130‚682) -130‚000}*0.43]= 196‚704 Net outlay for new machine -1‚010‚000+196‚704 = -813‚296 Appropriate

project A has an expected lifetime of 7 years‚ and project B has an expected lifetime of 11 years it would be improper to simply compare the net present values (NPVs) of the two projects‚ unless neither project could be repeated. EAC is calculated by dividing the NPV of a project by the present value of an annuity factor. Equivalently‚ the NPV of the project may be multiplied by the loan repayment factor. EAC= The use of the EAC method implies that the project will be replaced by an identical

Question 1 (1 mark) The methods that a firm can use to evaluate a potential investment: 1) ‘Discounting’ Methods: Net Present Value (NPV): the present value of the future after-tax cash flow minus the investment outlay made initially. The decision rule for the NPV as follows: invest if NPV> 0‚ do not invest if NPV< 0 Internal Rate of Return (IRR): calculates the interest rate that equates the present value of the future after-tax cash flows equal that investment outlay;

Which variables or inputs are obvious ones that need to be analyzed using multiple values? Explain by performing suitable calculations. The variables that are vulnerable to economic and market factors such as competition‚ inflation‚ and recession are selling price per unit and variable cost per unit. To some extent fixed costs can be sensitive as well. Price per unit has

CHAPTER 12 RISK TOPICS AND REAL OPTIONS IN CAPITAL BUDGETING FOCUS Traditional capital budgeting techniques compute point estimates of NPV and IRR with no measure of variability. Hence they don’t give managers the information necessary to include a tradeoff between risk and expected return in their decisions. This chapter is concerned with modern approaches to incorporating risk into capital budgeting. The techniques considered include probabilistic cash flows‚ risk adjusted discount rates
