Capital Budgeting: The process of planning for purchases of LT assets. For example: Our firm must decide whether to purchase a new plastic molding machine for $127,000. How do we decide? • Will the machine be profitable? • Will our firm earn a high rate of return on the investment? • The relevant project information follows:
The cost of the new machine is $127,000. • Installation will cost $20,000. • $4,000 in net working capital will be needed at the time of installation. • The project will increase revenues by $85,000 per year, but operating costs will increase by 35% of the revenue increase. • Simplified straight line depreciation is used. • Class life is 5 years, and the firm is planning to keep the project for 5 years. • Salvage value at the end of year 5 will be $50,000. • 14% cost of capital; 34% marginal tax rate.
Capital Budgeting Steps 1) Evaluate Cash Flows Look at all incremental cash flows occurring as a result of the project. • Initial outlay • Differential Cash Flowsover the life of the project (also referred to as annual cash flows). • Terminal Cash Flows

Capital Budgeting Steps 2)Evaluate the Risk of the Project • For now, we’ll assume that the risk of the project is the same as the risk of the overall firm. • Because of the above assumption, we can use the firm’s cost of capital as the discount rate for capital investment projects. (same risk = same rate)
Capital Budgeting Steps • Accept or Reject the Project • Accept or reject based on NPV calculation D-O-N-E
Step 1: Evaluate Cash Flows a) Initial Outlay: What is the cash flow at “time 0?” (Purchase price of the asset) + (shipping and installation costs) (Depreciable asset) + (Investment in working capital) + After-tax proceeds from sale of old asset Net Initial Outlay
Step 1: Evaluate Cash Flows • a) Initial Outlay: What is the cash flow at “time 0?” (127,000) Purchase price of asset + (20,000) Shipping and installation (147,000) Depreciable asset + (4,000) Net working capital + 0 Proceeds from sale of old asset ($151,000) Net initial outlay
Step 1: Evaluate Cash Flows b) Annual Cash Flows: What incremental cash flows occur over the life of the project?
For Each Year, Calculate: Incremental revenue - Incremental costs - Depreciation on project Incremental earnings before taxes - Tax on incremental EBT Incremental earnings after taxes + Depreciation reversal Annual Cash Flow
For Years 1 - 5: 85,000 Revenue (29,750) Costs (29,400) Depreciation 25,850 EBT (8,789) Taxes 17,061 EAT 29,400 Depreciation reversal 46,461 = Annual Cash Flow
Step 1: Evaluate Cash Flows c) Terminal Cash Flow: What is the cash flow at the end of the project’s life? Salvage value +/- Tax effects of capital gain/loss + Recapture of net working capital Terminal Cash Flow
Step 1: Evaluate Cash Flows c) Terminal Cash Flow: What is the cash flow at the end of the project’s life? 50,000 Salvage value +/- Tax effects of capital gain/loss + Recapture of net working capital Terminal Cash Flow
Tax Effects of Sale of Asset: • Salvage value = $50,000. • Book value = depreciable asset - total amount depreciated. • Book value = $147,000 - $147,000 = $0. • Capital gain = SV - BV = 50,000 - 0 = $50,000. • Tax payment = 50,000 x .34 = ($17,000).
Step 1: Evaluate Cash Flows c) Terminal Cash Flow: What is the cash flow at the end of the project’s life? 50,000 Salvage value (17,000) Tax on capital gain Recapture of NWC Terminal Cash Flow
Step 1: Evaluate Cash Flows c) Terminal Cash Flow: What is the cash flow at the end of the project’s life? 50,000 Salvage value (17,000) Tax on capital gain 4,000Recapture of NWC Terminal Cash Flow
Step 1: Evaluate Cash Flows c) Terminal Cash Flow: What is the cash flow at the end of the project’s life? 50,000 Salvage value (17,000) Tax on capital gain 4,000 Recapture of NWC 37,000 Terminal Cash Flow
Project NPV: • CF(0) = -151,000. • CF(1 - 4) = 46,461. • CF(5) = 46,461 + 37,000 = 83,461. • Discount rate = 14%. • NPV = $27,721. • We would acceptthe project.
Practice Problems:Cash Flows & Other Topics in Capital Budgeting
Problem 1a Project Information: • Cost of equipment = $400,000. • Shipping & installation will be $20,000. • $25,000 in net working capital required at setup. • 3-year project life, 5-year class life. • Simplified straight line depreciation. • Revenues will increase by $220,000 per year. • Defects costs will fall by $10,000 per year. • Operating costs will rise by $30,000 per year. • Salvage value after year 3 is $200,000. • Cost of capital = 12%, marginal tax rate = 34%.
Problem 1b Project Information: • For the same project, suppose we can only get $100,000 for the old equipment after year 3, due to rapidly changing technology. • Calculate the IRR and NPV for the project. • Is it still acceptable?
Problem 2 Automation Project: • Cost of equipment = $550,000. • Shipping & installation will be $25,000. • $15,000 in net working capital required at setup. • 8-year project life, 5-year class life. • Simplified straight line depreciation. • Current operating expenses are $640,000 per yr. • New operating expenses will be $400,000 per yr. • Already paid consultant $25,000 for analysis. • Salvage value after year 8 is $40,000. • Cost of capital = 14%, marginal tax rate = 34%.
Problem 3 Replacement Project: Old Asset (5 years old): • Cost of equipment = $1,125,000. • 10-year project life, 10-year class life. • Simplified straight line depreciation. • Current salvage value is $400,000. • Cost of capital = 14%, marginal tax rate = 35%.
Problem 3 Replacement Project: New Asset: • Cost of equipment = $1,750,000. • Shipping & installation will be $56,000. • $68,000 investment in net working capital. • 5-year project life, 5-year class life. • Simplified straight line depreciation. • Will increase sales by $285,000 per year. • Operating expenses will fall by $100,000 per year. • Already paid $15,000 for training program. • Salvage value after year 5 is $500,000. • Cost of capital = 14%, marginal tax rate = 34%.
