12 Ph: Assumptions: 1. For Pay back period: Cash flows are assumed to accrue evenly throughout the year. 2. For NPV Cash flows are assumed to accrue at the end of each year. Interim cash inflows at the end of each year are assumed to be reinvested at the rate of cost of capital. Cash flows given in the problem are assumed to be certain. To MASTER MINDS, 3. For IRR Cash flows are assumed to accrue at the end of each year. Interim cash inflows at the end of each year are assumed to be reinvested at the rate of IRR.

Therefore, net cash earnings are found by deducting initial investment. (iii) IRR Project A: Project B: Project C: The net cash proceeds in year 1 are just equal to investment. Therefore, r 0% This project produces an annuity of Rs.7,500 for two years. Therefore, the required PVAF is: 10,000/7, This factor is found under 32% column. Therefore, r 32% Since cash flows are uneven, the trail and error method will be followed. Using 20% rate of discount the NPV is + Rs.1,389. At 30% rate of discount, the NPV is Rs.633. The true rate of return should be less than 30%. At 27% rate of discount it is found that the NPV is Rs.86 and at 26% + Rs.105. Through interpolation, we find r 26.5% Project D: In this case also by using the trail and error method, it is found that at 37.6% rate of discount NPV becomes almost zero. Therefore, r 37.6% (iv) NPV Project A: at 10% -10,000+10,000x at 30% -10,000+10,000x ,310 Project B: at 10% -10,000+7,500( ) 3,013 at 30% -10,000+7,500( ) +208 Project C: at 10% -10,000+2,000x ,000x ,000x ,134 at 30% -10,000+2,000x ,000x ,000x Project D: at 10% -10,000+10,000x ,000x( ) +3,821 at 30% -10,000+10,000x ,000x( ) +831 The Project are ranked as follows according to the various methods: Ranks Projects PB ARR IRR NPV (10%) NPV (30% A B C D IPCC_31e_F.M_ Capital Budgeting_Assignment Solutions 13

14 Ph: (b) Payback and ARR are theoretically unsound method for choosing between the investment projects. Between the two time-adjusted (DCF) investment criteria, NPV and IRR, NPV gives consistent results. If the projects are independent (and there is no capital rationing), either IRR or NPV can be used since the same set of projects will be accepted by any of the methods. In the present case, except Project A all the three projects should be accepted if the discount rate is 10%. Only Projects B and D should be undertaken if the discount rate is 30%. If it is assumed that the projects are mutually exclusive, then under the assumption of 30% discount rate, the choice is between B and D (A and C are unprofitable). Both criteria IRR and NPV give the same results D is the best. Under the assumption of 10% discount rate, ranking according to IRR and NPV conflict (except for Project A). If the IRR rule is followed, Project D should be accepted. But the NPV rule tells that Project C is the best. The NPV rule generally gives consistent results in conformity with the wealth maximization principle. Therefore, Project C should be accepted following the NPV rule.

24 Ph: Project X Project Y NPV 4,134 2,821 IRR % % According to NPV Project X is preferable. According to IRR Project Y is preferable. Hence there is a conflict between NPV & IRR. Reasons for Conflict: i. Projects are mutually Exclusive ii. Cash flow disparity or time disparity iii. Disparity in reinvestment rates. The main objective of financial management is to maximize the shareholders wealth. NPLV ranks the proposal on the basis of this objective. Hence the project is selected on the preference made by NPV i.e. Project X PROBLEM NO.2 i. Estimation of net present value (NPV) of the Project P and J using 15% as the hurdle rate: NPV of Project P : 13,000 8,000 14,000 12,000 11,000 15,000-40, (1.15) (1.15) (1.15) (1.15) (1.15) (1.15) - 40, , , , , , , Rs. 5, OR Rs. 5,376 NPV of Project J : 7,000 13,000 12,000-20, (1.15) (1.15) (1.15) - 20, , , , Rs. 3, To MASTER MINDS, Guntur ii. Estimation of internal rate of return (IRR) of the Project P and J : Internal rate of return r (IRR) is that rate at which the sum of cash inflows afterdiscounting equals to the discounted cash out flows. The value of r in the case of givenprojects can be determined by using the following formula: CO 0 CF0 CF1 CFn SV + WC n + n (1+ r) (1+ r) (1+ r) (1+ r) Where Co Cash flows at the time 0 CF t Cash flows at the end of year t R Discount rate N Life of the Project SV & WC Salvage Value and working capital at the end of n years. In the case of project P the value of r (IRR) is given by the following relation: 40,000 13,000 8,000 14,000 12,000 11,000 15, (1+ r%) (1+ r%) (1+ r%) (1+ r%) (1+ r%) (1+ r%) r 19.73% IPCC_31e_F.M_Capital Budgeting_Assignment Solutions 24

25 No.1 for CA/CWA & MEC/CEC MASTER MINDS Similarly we can determine the internal rate of return for the project J. In the case of project J it comes to: r 25.20% iii. The conflict between NPV and IRR rule in the case of mutually exclusive project situation arises due to re-investment rate assumption. NPV rule assumes that intermediate cash flows are reinvested at k and IRR assumes that they are reinvested at r. The assumption of NPV rule is more realistic. iv. When there is a conflict in the project choice by using NPV and IRR criterion, we would prefer to use Equal Annualized Criterion. According to this criterion the net annual cash inflow in the case of Projects P and J respectively would be: Project P (Net present value/ cumulative present value of Re.1 for 6 years) (Rs. 5, / ) Rs. 1, Project J (Rs /2.2832) Rs Advise : Since the cash inflow per annum in the case of project J is more than that of project P, so Project J is recommended.

To MASTER MINDS, Guntur Conclusion: The objective of the financial management is to maximize the benefit to equity shareholders. NPV ranks the proposal in accordance with this objective. So it is beneficial to accept the project being preferred with highest NPV i.e. Project X. Assumptions: 1. For NPV: Cash flows are assumed to accrue at the end of each year. Interim cash inflows at the end of each year are assumed to be reinvested at the rate of cost of capital. Cash flows given in the problem are assumed to be certain. 2.
