5. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12.1 Identifying Incremental Cash Flows

6. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12-6 Identifying Incremental Cash Flows Incremental cash flow refers to the additional cash flow generated by a new project.

7. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12-7 Guidelines for Forecasting Incremental Cash Flows Sunk Costs are Not Incremental Cash Flows –Sunk costs are costs that have already been incurred or are going to be incurred regardless of whether or not the investment is undertaken. –For example, the cost of market research or a pilot program.

8. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12-8 Guidelines for Forecasting Incremental Cash Flows (cont.) Overhead Costs are Generally Not Incremental Cash Flows –Overhead costs often occur regardless of whether we accept or reject a particular project. –For example, cost of utilities.

9. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12-9 Guidelines for Forecasting Incremental Cash Flows (cont.) Look for Synergistic Effects –Oftentimes, the acceptance of a new project will have a positive or negative effect on the cash flows of the firm’s other projects or investments. –For example, an introduction of new variety of cereal can lead to loss of sales of existing cereal (called revenue cannibalization, a negative effect).

10. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12-10 Guidelines for Forecasting Incremental Cash Flows (cont.) Account for Opportunity Costs –Opportunity cost refers to the cost of passing up the next best choice when making a decision. –For example, use of an existing vacant building for a new project entails opportunity costs in the form of potential lost rent.

11. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12-11 Guidelines for Forecasting Incremental Cash Flows (cont.) Work in Working Capital Requirements –Additional working capital arises out of the fact that cash inflows and outflows from the operations of an investment are often mismatched. –Actual amount of new investment required by the project is given by: Increase in accounts receivable + Increase in inventories - Increase in accounts payable

12. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12-12 Guidelines for Forecasting Incremental Cash Flows (cont.) Ignore Interest Payments and Other Financing Costs –Interest payments and other financing costs are accounted for in the cost of capital (discount rate) used to discount the project’s cash flows. Including it will lead to double counting.

16. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12-16 Dealing with Depreciation Expense, Taxes and Cash Flow Depreciation expenses is subtracted while calculating the firm’s taxable income. However, depreciation is a non-cash expense. Thus depreciation must be added back to the net operating income to determine the cash flows.

17. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12-17 Dealing with Depreciation Expense, Taxes and Cash Flow (cont.) We calculate the depreciation expense using straight line method as follows: Annual Depreciation expense –= (Cost of equipment + Shipping & Installation Expense – Expected salvage value) ÷ (Life of the equipment)

18. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12-18 Dealing with Depreciation Expense, Taxes and Cash Flow (cont.) Example 12.1 –Consider a firm that purchased an equipment for $500,000 and incurred an additional $50,000 for shipping and installation. What will be the annual depreciation expense if the equipment is expected to last 10 years and have a salvage value of $25,000?

19. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12-19 Dealing with Depreciation Expense, Taxes and Cash Flow (cont.) Annual Depreciation expense –= (Cost of equipment + Shipping & Installation Expense – Expected salvage value) ÷ (Life of the equipment) = ($500,000 + $50,000 - $25,000) ÷ (10) = $52,500

21. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12-21 Four Step Procedure for Calculating Project Cash Flows (cont.) Step 1: Estimating a project’s operating cash flows

22. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12-22 Checkpoint 12.1 Forecasting a Project’s Operating Cash Flow The Crockett Clothing Company, located in El Paso, TX, owns and operates a clothing factory across the Mexican border in Juarez. The Juarez factory imports materials into Mexico for assembly and then exports the assembled products back to the United States without having to pay duties or tariffs. This type of factory is commonly referred to as a maquiladora. Crockett is considering the purchase of an automated sewing machine that will cost $200,000 and is expected to operate for five years, after which time it is not expected to have any value. The investment is expected to generate $360,000 in additional revenues for the firm during each of the five years of the project’s life. Due to the expanded sales, Crockett expects to have to expand its investment in accounts receivable by $60,000 and inventories by $36,000. These investments in working capital will be partially offset by an increase in the firm’s accounts payable of $18,000, which makes the increase in net operating working capital equal to $78,000 in year zero. Note that this investment will be returned at the end of year five as inventories are sold, receivables are collected, and payables are repaid. (cont.)

23. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12-23 Checkpoint 12.1 Forecasting a Project’s Operating Cash Flow (cont.) The project will also result in cost of goods sold equal to 60% of revenues while incurring other annual cash operating expenses of $5,000 per year. In addition, the depreciation expense for the machine is $40,000 per year. This depreciation expense is one-fifth of the initial investment of $200,000 where the estimated salvage value is zero at the end of its five-year life. Profits from the investment will be taxed at a 30% tax rate and the firm uses a 20% required rate of return. Calculate the operating cash flow.

27. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12-27 Checkpoint 12.1: Check Yourself Crockett Clothing Company is reconsidering its sewing machine investment in light of a change in its expectations regarding project revenues. The firm’s management wants to know the impact of a decrease in expected revenues from $360,000 to $240,000 per year. What would be the project’s operating cash flow under the revised revenue estimate?

28. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12-28 Step 1: Picture the Problem Years Cash flow OCF 1 OCF 2 OCF 3 OCF 4 OCF 5 OCF 1-5 = Sum of additional revenues less operating expenses (cash and depreciation) less taxes plus depreciation expense 012345

This is the information given to us: Equipment$2,00,000 Project life5 years Salvage Value- Depreciation expense$40,000 per year Cash Operating Expenses-$5,000 per year Revenues$240,000 per year Growth rate for revenues0% Cost of goods sold/Revenues60% Investment in Net operating working capital -$78,000 Required rate of return20% Tax rate30%

30. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12-30 Step 2: Decide on a Solution Strategy We can calculate the operating cash flows using equation 12-3.

31. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12-31 Step 3: Solve Since there is no change in revenues or other sources of cash flows from year to year, the total operating cash flows will be the same every year.

32. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12-32 Step 3: Solve (cont.) Year 1-5 Project Revenues (growth rate =0%)$240,000 - Cost of goods sold (60% of revenues)-144,000 = Gross Profit$96,000 - Cash operating expense-$5,000 - Depreciation-$40,000 = Net operating income$51,000 - Taxes (30%)-$15,300 =Net Operating Profit after Taxes (NOPAT) $35,700 + Depreciation$40,000 = Operating Cash Flows$75,700

33. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12-33 Step 4: Analyze This project contributes $35,700 to the firm’s net operating income (after taxes) based on annual revenues of $240,000.This represents a significant drop from $69,300 when the revenues were $360,000. Since depreciation is a non-cash expense, it is added back to determine the annual operating cash flows.

34. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12-34 Four Step Procedure for Calculating Project Cash Flows (cont.) Step 2: Calculating a Project’s Working Capital Requirements A new project would imply: – An increase in sales leading to an increase in credit sales (or accounts receivable); and –An increase in firm’s investment in inventories.

35. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12-35 Four Step Procedure for Calculating Project Cash Flows (cont.) Both increase in accounts receivable and increase in inventory represent a cash outflow. The total cash outflow will be reduced if the firm is able to finance some or all of its inventories using trade credit (accounts payable).

36. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12-36 Four Step Procedure for Calculating Project Cash Flows (cont.) Thus increase in investment in net working capital = Increase in accounts receivable + Increase in inventories – Increase in accounts payable

37. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12-37 Four Step Procedure for Calculating Project Cash Flows (cont.) Step 3: Calculating a Project’s Capital Expenditure Requirements –Capital expenditures refer to the cash the firm spends to purchase fixed assets. For accounting purposes, the cost of fixed asset is allocated over the life of the asset by depreciating the asset.

38. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12-38 Four Step Procedure for Calculating Project Cash Flows (cont.) Step 4: Calculating a Project’s Free Cash Flow –Project’s free cash flow is calculated by using equation 12-3

39. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12-39 Computing Project NPV Once we have estimated the free cash flow, we can compute the NPV using equation 11-1 based on the assumed discount rate.

45. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12.3 Inflation and Capital Budgeting

46. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12-46 Inflation and Capital Budgeting Cash flows that account for future inflation are referred to as nominal cash flows. Real cash flows are cash flows that occur in the absence of inflation.

47. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12-47 Inflation and Capital Budgeting For capital budgeting analysis, nominal cash flows must be discounted by nominal rate of return and real cash flows must be discounted at the real rate of interest.

48. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12.4 Replacement Project Cash Flows

49. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12-49 Replacement Project Cash Flows An expansion project increases the scope of firm’s operations, but does not replace any existing assets or operations. A replacement project replaces an older, less productive asset.

50. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12-50 Replacement Project Cash Flows A distinctive feature of many replacement investment is that principal source of cash flows comes from cost savings, not new revenues, since the firm already operates an existing asset to generate revenues.

51. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12-51 Replacement Project Cash Flows (cont.) To facilitate the capital budgeting analysis for replacement projects, we categorize the investment cash flows into two: –the initial cash flows (CF 0 ), and –subsequent cash flows (CF 1-end ).

52. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12-52 Replacement Project Cash Flows (cont.) Category 1: Initial Outlay, CF 0 Initial outlay typically includes: –Cost of fixed assets – Shipping and installation expense – Investment in net working capital – Sale of old equipment –Tax implications from sale of old equipment

53. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12-53 Replacement Project Cash Flows (cont.) There are three possible scenarios when an old asset is sold: Selling Price of old asset Tax Implications At depreciated valueNo taxes Higher than depreciated value (or book value) Difference between the selling price and depreciated book value is a taxable gain and is taxed at the marginal corporate tax rate. Lower than depreciated value (or book value) Difference between the depreciated book value and selling price is a taxable loss and may be used to offset capital gains.

54. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12-54 Replacement Project Cash Flows (cont.) Category 2: Annual Cash Flows –Annual cash flows for a replacement decision differ from a simple asset acquisition because we must now consider the differential operating cash flow of the new versus the old (replaced) asset.

55. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12-55 Replacement Project Cash Flows (cont.) Change in Depreciation and Taxes: –We need to compute the incremental change in depreciation and taxes i.e. what the depreciation and taxes would be if the assets were replaced versus what they would be if the assets were not replaced. –For depreciation, the expenses will increase by the amount of depreciation on the new asset but decrease by the amount of the depreciation of the replaced asset.

56. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12-56 Replacement Project Cash Flows (cont.) Changes in Working Capital: –Increase in working capital is necessitated by the increase in accounts receivable and increased investment in inventories. The increase is partially offset if inventory is financed by accounts payable.

57. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12-57 Replacement Project Cash Flows (cont.) Changes in capital spending: –The replacement asset may require an outlay at the time of acquisition and additional capital over its life. However, we must net out any additional capital spending requirements of the older, replaced asset.

58. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12-58 Checkpoint 12.2 Calculating Free Cash Flows for a Replacement Investment Leggett Scrap Metal, Inc. operates an auto salvage business in Salem, Oregon. The firm is considering the replacement of one of the presses it uses to crush scrapped automobiles. The following information summarizes the new versus old machine costs:

59. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12-59 Checkpoint 12.2 Leggett faces a 30% marginal tax rate and uses a 15% discount rate to evaluate equipment purchases for its automobile scrap operation. The appeal of the new press is that it is more automated (requires two fewer employees to operate the machine). The older machine requires four employees with salaries totaling $200,000 and fringe benefits costing $20,000. The new machine cuts this total in half. In addition, the new machine is able to separate out the glass and rubber components of the crushed automobiles, which reduces the annual cost of defects which are $20,000 with the new machine compared to $70,000 for the older model. However, the added automation feature comes at the cost of higher annual maintenance fees of $60,000 compared to only $20,000 for the older press. Should Leggett replace the older machine with the newer one?

This increase in revenues also means that the firm will also have to increase it’s investment in net working capital by $20,000. Estimate the initial cash outlay required to replace the old machine with the new one and estimate the annual cash flow for years 1 through 5.

67. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12-67 Step 1: Picture the Problem The new machine will require an initial outlay, which will be partially offset by the after-tax cash flows from the old machine. The new machine will help improve efficiency and reduce repairs, but it will also increase the annual maintenance expense.

70. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12-70 Step 2: Decide on a Solution Strategy The cash flows will be calculated using equation 12-3.

71. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12-71 Step 2: Decide on a Solution Strategy (cont.) However, for replacement projects, the emphasis is on the difference in costs and benefits of the new machine versus the old. Accordingly, we compute the initial cash outflow and the annual cash flows (from Year 1 through Year 5).

72. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12-72 Step 3: Solve Initial cash outflow (CF 0 ) = Cost of new equipment + Shipping cost + Installation cost – Sale of old equipment ± tax effects from sale of old equipment.

74. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12-74 Step 3: Solve (cont.) Thus, the total cost of new machine of $400,000 is partially offset by the old machine resulting in a net cost of $285,000. Next we compute the annual cash from years 1-5. Cash Flows for years 1-4 will be the same.

Based on the estimates of initial cash outflow and subsequent annual free cash flows for years 1-5, we can compute the NPV.

78. Copyright © 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 12-78 Computing NPV Continue Checkpoint 12.2: Check Yourself example. Compute the NPV for this replacement project based on discount rate of 15%.
