Capital Budgeting and Investment Analysis

Capital Budgeting & Investment Decisions

• These are decisions about when and how much to spend on capital assets

• Capital budgeting is the process of making such decisions Identify alternatives Evaluate and rank choices Make the decision

Measures Used in Capital Budgeting

• Net cash inflows include the increases in cash receipts less the cash payments made on a project. Can be a series of equal or unequal

amounts.• Cost savings are measured as the

reduction of costs under each alternative.

Other Considerations• Income taxes will affect cash flows and

must be considered. Depreciation expense does reduce income

and income taxes, but it does not decrease cash flows.

• Sale of the old assets will provide additional cash receipts up front.

• Sale of the new assets at the end of their useful life is an additional cash flow at the end of the project life.

Payback Period

• Payback is a measure of how long it will take to recover the initial investment.

• When you have equal cash flows Payback = (Initial cost)/(annual net cash

inflow)• If Payback <= useful life of project,

then accept

Payback with unequal cash flows

• When cash flows are not the same every year, you cannot apply the previous formula.

• Rather you must determine at what point the cumulative cash flows become positive. Where Cumulative CF = (initial investment) + CF(yr1) + CF(yr2) +

Net Cash CumulativeFlow Net Cash Flow

Using Payback Period• Payback is the easiest of the methods to use

and it gives us a quick idea of whether or not to consider the investment option further.

• Weaknesses: It does not consider the timing of the cash flows

(relative amounts over the years) It ignores any cash flows received after the point

where cash is fully recovered.

Accounting Rate of Return• ARR is another method of evaluating

alternatives. It is easy to determine, but it also ignores the time value of money.

• ARR = (average annual net income)/(avg. investment cost), where

• Average investment cost = (Initial cost + residual value)/2

• If ARR > cost of capital, then accept

Time Value of Money• Money received today has greater

value than money to be received in the future because of the effects of compound interest. PV(lump sum) = Future value*PV factor PV(annuity) = payment*PVA factor Where the PV factors are a function of the

interest rate and the time An annuity is a series of equal payments.

Net Present Value Method• This method of evaluating capital

projects involves the Calculation of present values of all net

cash inflows less the Cost of the initial investment.

• If NPV >= 0, then the project is acceptable.

• This method is the best in evaluating alternatives.
