2. 1-2 26-2 2 1 1 Explain the nature and importance of capital investment analysis. 26-2

3. 1-3 26-3 3 Capital investment analysis (or capital budgeting) is the process by which management plans, evaluates, and controls investments in fixed assets. Capital Investment Analysis 1

4. 1-4 26-4 4 1.Management plans, evaluates, and controls investments in fixed assets. 2.Capital investments involve a long-term commitment of funds. 3.Investments must earn a reasonable rate of return. 4.Capital investment decisions are some of the most important decisions that management makes. Nature of Capital Investment Analysis 1

5. 1-5 26-5 5 1 2 Evaluate capital investment proposals using the average rate of return and cash payment methods. 26-5

6. 1-6 26-6 6 Average Rate of Return Method The average rate of return, sometimes called the accounting rate of return, measures the average income as a percent of the average investment. The average rate of return is computed as follows: Average rate of return Estimated Average Annual Income Average Investment = (Initial Cost + Residual Value)/2 2

8. 1-8 26-8 8 Cash Payback Method The expected period of time that will pass between the date of an investment and the complete recovery in cash (or equivalent) of the amount invested is the cash payback period. 2

9. 1-9 26-9 9 When annual net cash flows are equal, the cash payback period is computed as follows: Cash payback period Initial Cost Annual Net Cash Flow = 2

12. 1-12 26-12 12 A proposed investment has an initial cost of $400,000. The annual and cumulative net cash flows over the proposal’s six-year life are as follows: 2

13. 1-13 26-13 13 1 3 Evaluate capital investment proposals using the net present value and internal rate of return methods. 26-13

14. 1-14 26-14 14 Present Value of an Amount On January 1, 2010, you invest $1 in an account that earns 12% interest compounded annually. Interest earning interest is called compounding. 3

15. 1-15 26-15 15 On January 1, 2010, what is the present value of $1,440 to be received on December 31, 2012 (assuming an interest rate of 12 percent)? To determine the answer, we need to go to Exhibit 1 (Slide 27) and find the table value for three years at 12 percent. 3

18. 1-18 26-18 18 Present Value of an Annuity An annuity is a series of equal net cash flows at fixed time intervals. The present value of an annuity is the amount of cash needed today to yield a series of equal net cash flows at fixed time intervals in the future. 3

19. 1-19 26-19 19 Net Present Value Method The net present value method compares the amount to be invested with the present value of the net cash inflows. It is sometimes called the discounted cash flow method. 3

20. 1-20 26-20 20 Assume the following data for a proposed investment in new equipment: Equipment Illustration Cost of new equipment$200,000 Expected useful life5 years Minimum desired rate of return10% Expected cash flows to be received each year: Year 1$70,000 Year 260,000 Year 350,000 Year 440,000 Year 5 40,000 Total expected cash flows$260,000 3

21. 1-21 26-21 21 The present value of the net cash flow is computed by multiplying the net cash flow by the present value factor of $1 for that year as shown in Slides 22 through 27. 3

31. 1-31 26-31 31 Using a Simpler Procedure to Find the Internal Rate of Return A trial-and-error procedure is time-consuming. To illustrate a simpler procedure, assume that management is considering a proposal to acquire equipment costing $97,360. The equipment is expected to provide equal annual net cash flows of $20,000 for seven years. 3

32. 1-32 26-32 32 Determine the present value factor or an annuity of 1 as follows: $97,360 $20,000 = 4.868 Amount to be Invested Equal Annual Cash Flows (continued) 3
