Tutorial 9

This document provides an overview of capital budgeting techniques and includes examples of calculating different metrics such as net present value, internal rate of return, and payback period for potential investment projects. Specifically: - It introduces commonly used capital budgeting procedures and why capital budgeting decisions are important. Capital budgeting errors can be very costly. - Example calculations are provided to demonstrate computing profitability index, net present value, and determining which projects to accept based on those metrics for three potential projects (Projects A, B, and C). - Another example calculation shows determining the payback period, net present value, and internal rate of return for a potential project with cash flows over 10 years and a cost of capital

Explain the role of capital budgeting techniques in the capital budgeting process.
Calculate, interpret and evaluate payback period, net present value, profitability index
and internal rate of return.

What are the most commonly used capital budgeting procedures?


Why is capital-budgeting decision so important? Why are capital-budgeting errors so
costly?

b. Compute the NPV for each of the three projects.

c. Suppose these three projects are independent. Which project (s) should
Anthony accept based on the profitability index rule?

Jojo is reviewing a project with an initial cash outflow of RM250,000. An additional


RM100,000 will have to be invested after the first year, followed by an additional
investment of RM50,000 at the end of the second year. Beginning at the end of year
three, the project is expected to generate cash flows of RM90,000 per year for the
next eight years. Calculate the projects payback period, net present value (NPV), and
internal rate of return (IRR) at a cost of capital of 8 percent.

Valley uses a combination of the net present value approach and the payback
approach to evaluate investment alternatives. It requires that all projects have a
positive net present value when cash flows are discounted at 10 percent and that all
projects have a payback period no longer than 3 years. Which project or projects
should the firm accept? Why?
