You have been approached by the directors to aid them in their decision making. State of the economy Probability of occurrence Share A (%) Share B (%) Recession Bad Moderate Good Upswing Calculate the expected return for both shares using the format provided below as a guide.

(4) PART C You would like to estimate the rate of return of two investments, Buy-me and Buy-you, that have similar risk profiles. The following market values were established for the investments: Buy-me Buy-you Current year R R Prior year R R Cash flows generated during the current year were: Buy-me Buy-you Cash flows generated R9 500 R You can assume that past returns will serve as reasonable estimates of future returns. 3.7 Calculate the expected rate of return on the Buy-me investment and the Buy-you investment using the most recent years data.

8 Page 8 of 9 QUESTION 4 [10] PART A (This question consists of two parts) Market Build has estimated the cash flows over a 6-year period for two projects, A and B, as follows: Project A Project B R R Initial Investment ** Year Operating Cash Flows **After-tax cash inflow expected from liquidation Assume project A is actually a replacement for project B and the R initial investment shown for project B is the after-tax cash inflow expected from liquidating it. 4.1 Calculate and present the relevant cash flows for this replacement decision. (4) 4.2 Discuss why, in the above replacement scenario, it is important to evaluate the decision based only on incremental or relevant cash flows. (2) PART B Marky-Tech Ltd has spent R3.5 million over the past decade developing a market data mining program. It is currently trying to decide whether to spend an additional R on the project. The firm expects that this final outlay will finish the project and will generate cash flows of R1 million per year over the next five years. A competitor has offered R4.5 million for the program as it currently stands. 4.3 Classify each of the amounts/outlays spoken of in the above scenario as a relevant or irrelevant cash flow with regard to the decision. Where necessary you are required to indicate if the amounts would be a sunk cost or opportunity cost. Remember to justify each classification. (4)
