© Prentice Hall, 2000 2 Learning Objectives è Explain the importance of using incremental reasoning in identifying a project’s cash flows. è Identify a project’s initial investment, incremental operating cash flows, and terminal value and use these estimates to calculate the project’s NPV. è Describe how the failure to deal with inflation and other biases in capital budgeting can lead to inappropriate investment decisions. è Discuss the importance of properly assessing the effects of product line cannibalization in a new product introduction. è Use the principle of purchasing power parity to properly evaluate an overseas project.

© Prentice Hall, 2000 3 Learning Objectives (Cont.) è Describe how the failure to identify managerial options can systematically undervalue an investment project è Explain the importance of creating barriers to entry by potential competitors is important to the generation of positive NPV projects. è Indicate how an option valuation approach can be used to evaluate R&D projects. è Describe how techniques such as sensitivity analysis, simulation, and decision trees can help managers to understand the sources of project risk.

© Prentice Hall, 2000 4 Guidelines for Estimating Project Cash Flows è Apply incremental reasoning è Ignore fictional accounting flows è Be careful about transfer prices è Ignore sunk costs è Don’t ignore opportunity costs è Don’t forget working capital requirements è Don’t forget abandonment costs or terminal value
5
© Prentice Hall, 2000 5 Incremental Cash Flows for a Project è Initial investment è Operating cash flows è Terminal or salvage values è Abandonment costs
6
© Prentice Hall, 2000 6 Initial Investment A project’s initial investment may consist of three components: è Cost of acquiring and placing the asset in service è Net proceeds from the sale of the existing equipment è Tax consequences of selling an existing asset
7
© Prentice Hall, 2000 7 Operating Cash Flows The incremental operating cash flows ( OCF), per period, can be expressed as OCF = ( REV - COST - DEP)(1 - TAX) + DEP - WC Where: REV = the change in revenues COST= the change in operating costs DEP = the change in depreciation WC = the annual increase in working capital TAX = the marginal tax rate faced by the firm
8
© Prentice Hall, 2000 8 Terminal or Salvage Values A project’s terminal, or salvage value may consist of one or more of the following elements: è Salvage value of equipment è Recovery of working capital è Cash flows beyond some initial evaluation period
9
© Prentice Hall, 2000 9 Abandonment Costs Some projects require cash outflows when the project is terminated. For instance, firms in certain industries may have to incur high costs to meet environmental standards.
10
© Prentice Hall, 2000 10 The Replacement Problem è A class of investments where a company is looking to replace an existing piece of equipment with a new “model.” è The motivation for these projects is either cost reduction or quality improvement or both.
11
© Prentice Hall, 2000 11 Spectrum Manufacturing Company Existing Equipment Cost = $120,000 Depreciation = $12,000/Year Book Value = $60,000 Salvage Value Today = 10,000Salvage Value in 5 Years = $0 New Equipment Cost = $100,000 Depreciation = $20,000/Year Cash Savings = $24,000/YearSalvage Value in 5 Years = $0

15
© Prentice Hall, 2000 15 Inflation Biases in Capital Budgeting Required returns in the financial markets embody inflationary expectations. Not adjusting cash flows for inflation means that firms will be discounting real cash flows by nominal interest rates. This systematically understates a project’s NPV.

17
© Prentice Hall, 2000 17 Biases in Capital Budgeting è Inflation è Projects with overestimated cash flows are more likely to be chosen è Manager overoptimism è Manager pessimism
18
© Prentice Hall, 2000 18 New Product Introduction Investments related to (1) product or service extensions, or (2) product innovations. The estimates of cash flows from new product introductions are subject to a far greater degree of uncertainty than are replacement projects

© Prentice Hall, 2000 25 Product Line Cannibalization A phenomenon where a new product takes sales away from one or more of a firm’s existing products. Evaluating cannibalization involves the following considerations: èWhat matters is the incremental effect of cannibalization; the sales lost that can be solely attributable to the new product introduction èBe sensitive to the competitive environment; it is always better to lose volume to your own entry than to one of your competitor’s

© Prentice Hall, 2000 29 Managerial Options and Capital Budgeting DCF techniques assume that a project’s cash flows cannot be changed once the decision to go ahead is made. This is unrealistic for many projects since management actions can alter the initial cash flow estimates after implementation. Such managerial discretions are options.

32
© Prentice Hall, 2000 32 Value of Projects With Strategic Options V PROJ = V DCF + V STRAT Where: V DCF = the project’s value using traditional DCF techniques V STRAT = the value of the strategic options
33
