Case summary:
Company S desires to add a new line to its product mix. For this purpose the analysis of capital budgeting was conducted by person S an MBA graduate. The invoice price of the machinery is $200,000 approximately and $10,000 shipping charges are required. Installation charges are $30,000. The machinery has a 4 years’ life with a salvage value of $25000.
The new line leads to increase the sales of 1,250 units each year of 4 years and cost of $100 per unit in first year. The units are sold for $200 in the 1st year.
It results to an increase in company’s net working capital by 12% value of sales. Company’s tax rate is 40% and risk adjusted cost of capital or weighted average cost of capital for an average project is 10%.

FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT: THEORY AND PRACT
- Illustrate the conventional payback period, annual project cash flow over the life of project, and cumulative project cash flow over time?arrow_forwardHow do we develop the project cash flows, after taxes, over the life of the project?arrow_forwardMathematically, how can we determine the rate of return for a project's cash flow?arrow_forward
- How can the money released from a project be reinvested to yield a rate of return equal to that received from the project?arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements is true? The internal rate of return is the rate of return of an investment project over its useful life. When the net cash inflow is the same every year for a project after the initial investment, the internal rate of return of a project can be determined by dividing the initial investment required in the project by the annual net cash inflow. This computation yields a factor that can be looked up in a table of present values of annuities to find the internal rate of return. Multiple Choice Only statement I is true. Only statement II is true. Both statements are true.arrow_forwardThe internal rate of return (IRR) on a project is the average annual rate of return provided by investing in the project. A. Explain this thoroughly. B. Give some example if you have any idea.arrow_forward
- Describe the project cash-flow analysis?arrow_forwardWhat is the project's cash flow?arrow_forwardTo calculate net present value of a project with normal cash flows, find the present value of the expected cash flows, and subtract A) retained earnings. B) the cost of the investment. C) the factor loading. D) the payback period.arrow_forward
- What refers to the interest rate at which the present work of the cash flow on a project is zero of the interest earned by an investment? Select one: a. Return of investment b. Yield c. Rate of return d. Economic returnarrow_forwardFor a normal project, profitability index is the ratio of: a. The net present value of the project’s net cash flow to the project’s initial investment.b. The net present value of the project’s net cash flows to the project’s IRR.c. The present value of the project’s cash flows to the project’s IRR.d. The present value of the project’s cash inflows to the project’s initial investment.e. All of the above properly describe the profitability index.arrow_forwardThe Net Present Value considers which of the following inputs: The internal rate of return The accounting rate of return The initial amount investment The annual accounting profit throughout the project’s operating life.arrow_forward
