Redbird Company is considering a project with an initial investment of $265,000 in new equipment that will yield annual net cash flows of $45,800 each year over its seven-year life. The companys minimum required rate of return is 8%. What is the internal rate of return? Should Redbird accept the project based on IRR?
Start with the partial model in the file Ch07 P25 Build a Model.xlsx on the textbook’s Web site. Selected data for the Derby Corporation are shown here. Use the data to answer the following questions. Calculate the estimated horizon value (i.e., the value of operations at the end of the forecast period immediately after the Year-4 free cash flow). Assume growth becomes constant after Year 3. Calculate the present value of the horizon value, the present value of the free cash flows, and the estimated Year-0 value of operations. Calculate the estimated Year-0 price per share of common equity.
Fenton, Inc., has established a new strategic plan that calls for new capital investment. The company has a 9.8% required rate of return and an 8.3% cost of capital. Fenton currently has a return of 10% on its other investments. The proposed new investments have equal annual cash inflows expected. Management used a screening procedure of calculating a payback period for potential investments and annual cash flows, and the IRR for the 7 possible investments are displayed in image. Each investment has a 6-year expected useful life and no salvage value. A. Identify which project(s) is/are unacceptable and briefly state the conceptual justification as to why each of your choices is unacceptable. B. Assume Fenton has $330,000 available to spend. Which remaining projects should Fenton invest in and in what order? C. If Fenton was not limited to a spending amount, should they invest in all of the projects given the company is evaluated using return on investment?
Buena Vision Clinic is considering an investment that requires an outlay of 600,000 and promises a net cash inflow one year from now of 810,000. Assume the cost of capital is 10 percent. Required: 1. Break the 810,000 future cash inflow into three components: a. The return of the original investment b. The cost of capital c. The profit earned on the investment 2. Now, compute the present value of the profit earned on the investment. 3. Compute the NPV of the investment. Compare this with the present value of the profit computed in Requirement 2. What does this tell you about the meaning of NPV?
Brook Corporation’s free cash flow for the current year (FCF0) was $3.00 million. Its investors require a 13% rate of return on (WACC = 13%). What is the estimated value of operations if investors expect FCF to grow at a constant annual rate of (1) −5%, (2) 0%, (3) 5%, or (4) 10%?
Start with the partial model in the file Ch10 P23 Build a Model.xlsx on the textbooks Web site. Gardial Fisheries is considering two mutually exclusive investments. The projects expected net cash flows are as follows: a. If each projects cost of capital is 12%, which project should be selected? If the cost of capital is 18%, what project is the proper choice? b. Construct NPV profiles for Projects A and B. c. What is each projects IRR? d. What is the crossover rate, and what is its significance? e. What is each projects MIRR at a cost of capital of 12%? At r = 18%? (Hint: Consider Period 7 as the end of Project Bs life.) f. What is the regular payback period for these two projects? g. At a cost of capital of 12%, what is the discounted payback period for these two projects? h. What is the profitability index for each project if the cost of capital is 12%?
Assume that an investment of 100,000 produces a net cash flow of 60,000 per year for two years. The discount factor for year 1 is 0.89 and for year 2 is 0.80. The NPV is a. 0 b. 6,800 c. 1,400 d. (4,000)
CAPITAL BUDGETING CRITERIA: MUTUALLY EXCLUSIVE PROJECTS Project S requires an initial outlay at t = 0 of 17,000, and its expected cash flows would be 5,000 per year for 5 years. Mutually exclusive Project L requires an initial outlay at t = 0 of 30,000, and its expected cash flows would be 8,750 per year for 5 years. If both projects have a WACC of 12%, which project would you recommend? Explain.
