PROBLEM NO. 1 Frank Company may acquire Aziz Car Leasing Company. Frank estimates that Aziz will provide incremental net income after taxes of Rs.2 million in the first year, Rs.3 million the second, Rs.4 million the third, Rs.5 million in each of the years 4 through 6, and Rs.6 million annually thereafter. Owing to the need to replenish the fleet, heavier than usual investments are required in the first 2 years. Capital investments and depreciation charges are expected to be (in millions): Year 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 ON Capital investment Rs.5 Rs.5 Rs.4 Rs.4 Rs.4 Rs.4 Rs.4 Depreciation Rs.3 Rs.4 Rs.4 Rs.4 Rs.4 Rs.4 Rs.4 The overall required rate of return is 15 percent. Compute the present value of the acquisition based on these expectations. If you had a range of possible outcomes, how would you obtain the information necessary to analyse the acquisition?
