The user cost of capital: Consider the basic formula for the user cost ofcapital in the presence of a corporate income tax. Suppose the baseline casefeatures an interest rate of 2 percent, a rate of depreciation of 6 percent, aprice of capital that rises at 1 percent per year, and a 0 percent corporate taxrate. Starting from this baseline case, what is the user cost of capital after thefollowing changes?(a) No changes—the baseline case.(b) Te corporate tax rate rises to 35 percent.(c) Te interest rate doubles to 4 percent.(d) Both (b) and (c).
Compute for the following:
1. Accounting rate or return based on the average investment
2. Net Present Value
3. Traditional Payback Period
Woc inc. wants to increase its free cash flow by PIBO milion during the coming year, which should
result in a higher EVA and stock price. The CO has made these projections for the upcoming year:
• CBIT Is projected to equal PRSO millon
* Gross capital expenditures are enpected to total to P60 milien versus depreciation of P120
millon, so its net capital expenditures should total P240 million.
• The tan rate is 0N.
• There will be no changes in cash or marketable securitien, nor willthere be any changes in notes

- Vilas Company is considering a capital investment of $190,600 in additional productive facilities. The new machinery is expected to have a useful life of 5 years with no salvage value. Depreciation is by the straight-line method. During the life of the investment, annual net income and net annual cash flows are expected to be $12,700 and $49,600, respectively. Vilas has a 12% cost of capital rate, which is the required rate of return on the investment. Click here to view PV table. (a) Compute the cash payback period.
