Chapter 21, Problem 21.22E
Capital budgeting methods, no income taxes. Yummy Candy Company is considering purchasing a second chocolate dipping machine in order to expand their business. The information Yummy has accumulated regarding the new machine is:
| Cost of the machine | $80,000 |
| Increased annual contribution margin | $15,000 |
| Life of the machine | 10 years |
| Required |
6% |
Yummy estimates they will be able to produce more candy using the second machine and thus increase their annual contribution margin. They also estimate there will be a small disposal value of the machine but the cost of removal will offset that value. Ignore income tax issues in your answers. Assume all cash flows occur at year-end except for initial investment amounts.
- 1. Calculate the following for the new machine:
Required
- a.
Net present value - b. Payback period
- c. Discounted payback period
- d.
Internal rate of return (using the interpolation method) - e. Accrual accounting rate of return based on the net initial investment (assume straight-line
depreciation ) - 2. What other factors should Yummy Candy consider in deciding whether to purchase the new machine?

Capital budgeting
PARCO is considering a new project that complements its existing business. The machine required for the project costs $3.9 million. The marketing department predicts that sales related to the project will be $2.35 million per year for the next four years, after which the market will cease to The machine will be depreciated down to zero over its four-year economic life using the straight-line method. Cost of goods sold and operating expenses related to the project are predicted to be 25 percent of sales. PARCO also needs to add net working capital of $150,000 immediately. The additional net working capital will be recovered in full at the end of the project’s life. The corporate tax rate is 30 percent. The required rate of return for PARCO is 13 percent. Should PARCO proceed with the project?
Pisa Pizza Parlor is investigating the purchase of a new $45,000 delivery truck that would contain specially designed warming racks. Thenew truck would have a six-year useful life. It would save $5,400 per year over the present method of delivering pizzas. In addition, it would result in the sale of 1,800 more pizzas each year. The company realizes a contribution margin of $2 per pizza.
Required:
(Ignore income taxes.)
1. What would be the total annual cash inflows associated with the new truck for capital budgeting purposes?
2. Find the internal rate of return promised by the new truck to the nearest whole percent.

- Gina Ripley, president of Dearing Company, is considering the purchase of a computer-aided manufacturing system. The annual net cash benefits and savings associated with the system are described as follows: The system will cost 9,000,000 and last 10 years. The companys cost of capital is 12 percent. Required: 1. Calculate the payback period for the system. Assume that the company has a policy of only accepting projects with a payback of five years or less. Would the system be acquired? 2. Calculate the NPV and IRR for the project. Should the system be purchasedeven if it does not meet the payback criterion? 3. The project manager reviewed the projected cash flows and pointed out that two items had been missed. First, the system would have a salvage value, net of any tax effects, of 1,000,000 at the end of 10 years. Second, the increased quality and delivery performance would allow the company to increase its market share by 20 percent. This would produce an additional annual net benefit of 300,000. Recalculate the payback period, NPV, and IRR given this new information. (For the IRR computation, initially ignore salvage value.) Does the decision change? Suppose that the salvage value is only half what is projected. Does this make a difference in the outcome? Does salvage value have any real bearing on the companys decision?arrow_forwardNew-Project Analysis The Campbell Company is considering adding a robotic paint sprayer to its production line. The sprayer’s base price is $1,080,000, and it would cost another $22,500 to install it. The machine falls into the MACRS 3-year class, and it would be sold after 3 years for $605,000. The MACRS rates for the first 3 years are 0.3333, 0.4445, and 0.1481. The machine would require an increase in net working capital (inventory) of $15,500. The sprayer would not change revenues, but it is expected to save the firm $380,000 per year in before-tax operating costs, mainly labor. Campbell’s marginal tax rate is 35%. What is the Year-0 cash flow? What are the net operating cash flows in Years 1, 2, and 3? What is the additional Year-3 cash flow (i.e., the after-tax salvage and the return of working capital)? If the project’s cost of capital is 12%, should the machine be purchased?arrow_forwardReview of Basic Capital Budgeting Procedures Dr. Whitley Avard, a plastic surgeon, had just returned from a conference in which she learned of a new surgical procedure for removing wrinkles around eyes, reducing the time to perform the normal procedure by 50%. Given her patient-load pressures. Dr. Avard is excited to try out the new technique. By decreasing the time spent on eye treatments or procedures, she can increase her total revenues by performing more services within a work period. In order to implement the new procedure, special equipment costing 74,000 is needed. The equipment has an expected life of 4 years, with a salvage value of 6,000. Dr. Avard estimates that her cash revenues will increase by the following amounts: She also expects additional cash expenses amounting to 3,000 per year. The cost of capital is 12%. Assume that there are no income taxes. Required: 1. Compute the payback period for the new equipment. 2. Compute the ARR. Round the percentage to two decimal places. 3. CONCEPTUAL CONNECTION Compute the NPV and IRR for the project. Use 14% as your first guess for IRR. Should Dr. Avard purchase the new equipment? Should she be concerned about payback or the ARR in making this decision? 4. CONCEPTUAL CONNECTION Before finalizing her decision. Dr. Avard decided to call two plastic surgeons who have been using the new procedure for the past 6 months. The conversations revealed a somewhat less glowing report than she received at the conference. The new procedure reduced the time required by about 25% rather than the advertised 50%. Dr. Avard estimated that the net operating cash flows of the procedure would be cut by one-third because of the extra time and cost involved (salvage value would be unaffected). Using this information, recompute the NPV of the project. What would you now recommend?arrow_forward
- Talbot Industries is considering launching a new product. The new manufacturing equipment will cost $17 million, and production and sales will require an initial $5 million investment in net operating working capital. The company’s tax rate is 25%. What is the initial investment outlay? The company spent and expensed $150,000 on research related to the new product last year. What is the initial investment outlay? Rather than build a new manufacturing facility, the company plans to install the equipment in a building it owns but is not now using. The building could be sold for $1.5 million after taxes and real estate commissions. What is the initial investment outlay?arrow_forwardTalbot Industries is considering launching a new product.
