- Calculate Computron’s return on invested capital (ROIC). Computron has a 10% cost of capital (WACC). What caused the decline in the ROIC? Was it due to operating profitability or capital utilization? Do you think Computron’s growth added value?arrow_forwardDefine the term capital intensity. Explain how a decline in capital intensity would affect the AFN, other things held constant. Would economies of scale combined with rapid growth affect capital intensity, other things held constant? Also, explain how changes in each of the following would affect AFN, holding other things constant: the growth rate, the amount of accounts payable, the profit margin, and the payout ratio.arrow_forwardAssuming the following ratios are constant, what is the sustainable growth rate? PLEASE INCLUDE EXCEL FUNCTIONS. Thank you! Assuming the following ratios are constant, what is the sustainable growth rate?

- You need to estimate the equity cost of capital for XYZ Corp. You have the following data available regarding past returns: a. What was XYZ's average historical return? b. Compute the market's and XYZ's excess returns for each year. Estimate XYZ's beta. c. Estimate XYZ's historical alpha. d. Suppose the current risk-free rate is 3%, and you expect the market's return to be 9%. Use the CAPM to estimate an expected return for XYZ Corp.'s stock. e. Would you base your estimate of XYZ's equity cost of capital on your answer in part (a) or in part (d)? Data table (Click on the following icon in order to copy its contents into a spreadsheet.)

- A. Estimate the free cash flow to the firm for each of the 4 years. B. Compute the payback (using free cash flows) period for investors in the firm. C. Compute the net present value and internal rate of return to investors in the firm.Would you accept the project? Why or why not? D. How will you incorporate this information in your existing analysis? Compute the newFCF side costs and benefits. Calculate the new NPV and IRR. Would you accept the project? Using A, B C with the first picture.arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements is true? I. In the payback method, depreciation is added back to net operating income when computing the annual net cash flow. II. When a company is cash poor, a project with a short payback period but a low rate of return may be preferred to a project with a long payback period and a high rate of return. III. A shorter payback period does not necessarily mean that one investment is more desirable than another. Only statement III is true. O All of the statements are true. None of the statements are true. Only statement I is true.arrow_forwardThe net present value (NPV) method estimates how much a potential project will contribute to Business ethics/Shareholders Wealth/Employee Benefits, and it is the best selection criterion. The Smaller/Larger the NPV, the more value the project adds; and added value means a Higher/Larger stock price. In equation form, the NPV is defined as: CFt is the expected net cash flow at Time t, r is the project's risk-adjusted cost of capital, N is its life, and cash outflows are treated as negative cash flows. The NPV calculation assumes that cash inflows can be reinvested at the project's risk-adjusted RD/RS/WACC. When the firm is considering independent projects, if the project's NPV exceeds zero the firm should Accept/Reject the project. When the firm is considering mutually exclusive projects, the firm should accept the project with the Lowest Positive/Lowest Negative/Highest Postive/ Highest Negative NPV.Quantitative Problem: Bellinger Industries is considering two projects for inclusion…arrow_forward
- Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. The NPV profile graph for a normal project will generally have a positive (upward) slope as the life of the project increases. b. An NPV profile graph shows how a project's payback varies as the cost of capital changes. O c. An NPV profile graph is designed to give decision makers an idea about how a project's contribution to the firm's value varies with the cost of capital. d. An NPV profile graph is designed to give decision makers an idea about how a project's risk varies with its life. e. We cannot draw a project's NPV profile unless we know the appropriate WACC for use in evaluating the project's NPV.arrow_forwardDon't use Aiarrow_forwardWith everything else held constant, which of the following events should increase the internal rate of return of a capital budgeting project? A. An increase in the cost of the asset. B. A decrease in the firm’s cost of capital. C. A decrease in the cost of operating the asset. D. A decrease in tax benefits.arrow_forward
