What is the NPV of the project? $101,432 $76,235 $58,009 ($174,276)

Answer: $101,432 IO = -400000 Yr 1 = 128000 Yr 2 = 147200 Yr 3 = 126720 Yr 4 = 114400 Yr 5 = 97280+114400 = 211680 Discount @ 13% = NPV = 101432

A project is closing. Equipment is sold for $50,000, even though the book value was $75,000. The tax rate is 30%. The project started with $100,000 in working capital. What is the terminal cash flow? 75,000 152,500 157,500 127,500

1 / 1 (100.0%) Answer: 157,500 50,000 - ((50,000-75,000)*.3) + 100,000 = 157,500

ABC Corp is considering a project requiring the purchase of new equipment. The firm spent $20,000 on a market assessment four months ago as well as $14,000 for a feasibility study a year ago. In order to start the new project, the firm has to replace an old machine with a remaining book value of $25,000 (note: this is the original salvage value of the old machine; as such, it is fully depreciated). While still functional, the machine has no market value and will be scrapped if the new equipment is acquired. The new machine will cost the firm $220,000. In order to put the machine in working condition, ABC will spend $6,000 in installation and $4,000 in shipping. If the new machine is purchased net working capital will be increased by $10,000. The new machine will be depreciated via the straight-line depreciation method to a salvage value of $0. However, at the end of the new machine's five-year life, it can be sold for $30,000. If accepted, the new machine will increase annual revenues by $150,000 and will increase annual operating cost by $45,000. The company has a marginal tax rate of 40% and a cost of capital of 14%. The project will last 5 years. What is the incremental (i.e., total) cash flow in Year 5? $81,400 $121,400 $109,400 $99,400

Answer: $109,400 · Step 1- Operating cash flow: The calculation is as follows (note: depreciation expense = (depreciable base - salvage value)/life = (230k - 0)/(5 = 46k): Revenue . 150,000 Cost (45,000) Depreciation Expense (46,000) EBT 59,000 Tax (40% of EBT) . (23,600) NOPAT 35,400 Add: Depreciation Exp 46,000 Operating Cash Flow 81,400 Total Cash Flow = Operating Cash Flow + Terminal Value = 81400 + 28000 = $109,400

The total cost of a new machine including the shipping and the installation was $250,000. Using the 3-year MACRS schedule, determine the depreciation expense in year 2. The factors for the three-years schedule are: year 1 = 33.33%, year 2 = 44.45%, year 3 = 14.81%, and year 4 = 7.41%. $111,125 $83,325 $18,525 $37,025

Answer: $111,125 Using the tables, depreciation for each year is calculated as: Depr.expense = factori x cost. Hence, for year 2 depreciation expense = .4445 x $250,000 = $111,125.

What is the total cash flow for Year 5? $78,440 $101,440 $111,440 $68,440

Answer: $111,440 Total CF = DiffCF + Terminal CF = 68,440 + 43,000 = 111,440.

What is the differential cash flow in Year 4? $68,400 $128,000 $111,456 $114,400

Answer: $114,400 Year 4 MACRS 11.50% Depreciation Expense 46,000 Revenue 200,000 Cost (40,000) Depreciation Expense (46,000) EBIT 114,000 Tax (45,600) NOPAT 68,400 Add: Depreciation Exp 46,000 Differential Cash Flow 114,400

TippingToys is considering the purchase of a new toy-making machine that will increase revenues by $50,000 a year and annual costs by $10,000. The new machine will replace an outdated machine with a current book vale of $10,000 but if scrapped now can only be sold for $6,000. The new machine will cost $100,000 with shipping and installation fees of $10,000. The machine will be depreciated via 5-year MACRS schedule (20.0%, 32.0%, 19.2%, 11.5%, 11.5%, 5.8%). The firm estimates that the new machine can be sold at the end of its five-year life for $20,000. The new machine will necessitate an investment of $30,000 in working capital that will be fully recovered at the end of the project. Tipping Toys has a 10% cost of capital and a corporate tax rate of 40%. What is the initial outlay? $142,400 $144,000 $132,400 $134,000

Answer: $132,400 Cost of New Machine (100,000) Installation/Shipping (10,000) Depreciable base (110,000) Working Capital (30,000) Price of Old 6,000 BV of Old (10,000) Gain/Loss (4,000) Tax 1,600 Net Sales of Old 7,600 Initial Outlay (132,400) Notes: Note the net cash inflow from the sale of the old equipment is $7600 ($6,000 sale proceeds plus a $1,600 tax shield). The depreciable base is the cost of the asset plus shipping, or $110k. The working capital investment is not included in the depreciable base, but is part of the initial outlay. You can simplify this calculation by thinking of it as: IO = cost + shipping + working cap - sale of old = 100k + 10k + 30k - 7.6k = 132,400 (remember, this is an outflow!)

Active Alarm is replacing its old machine with a new one. The old machine is being sold for $200,000 and it has a book value of $50,000. The tax rate for the firm is 40%. What is the net proceed from the sale of the old machine? $140,000 $150,000 $90,000 $260,000

Answer: $140,000 Net Sale = Sale price - (Sale price - Book Value) x Tax Rate = 200,000 - (200,000 - 50,000) X 0.4 = $140,000

The project will last 5 years. What is the initial outlay of this project? $230,000 $240,000 $265,000 $245,000

Answer: $230,000 · Depreciable asset = Cost of New + Install + Ship = 220k + 6k + 4k = 230k · Net cash from sale of old machine = MV of Old -/+ Tax effect = $0 + $10k = 10k o Gain (Loss) = Sale price - BV = $0 - $25k = ($25k) (note: not cash). o Reduces initial outlay! Initial outlay = cost of new + install + ship + increase in WC - net cash from sale of old = 220k + 6k + 4K + 10k - 10k = 230k

What is the differential cash flow given the following? Sales 50,000 Expenses (w/o depn) 30,000 Depreciation 10,000 Taxes (.40) 4,000 50,000 10,000 16,000 6,000

Answer: 16,000 NI + depn 50,000 - 30,000 - 10,000 = 10,000 EBIT - taxes of 4,000 = 6,000 NI + 10,000 depn = 16,000 diff cash flow

XYZ Company is considering the purchase of new equipment. The firm spent $12,000 on consulting several months ago as well as $7,000 on a market study about a year ago. In order to start the new project, the firm has to replace the old machine which has a book value of $0 and will be scrapped. The new machine will cost the firm $220,000. Additionally, XYZ will spend $7,000 in installation and $3,000 in shipping. Since the new machine will produce more, an investment in net working capital of $10,000 is required. The new machine will be depreciated using straight-line depreciation to a salvage value of $0. However, the realizable salvage value of the new machine at year 5 is expected to be $50,000. The project will increase annual revenues by $125,000 and will increase annual operating cost by $45,000. The company has a marginal tax rate of 34%. It has the cost of capital of 14% and the project will last 5 years. What is the initial outlay of this project? $240,000 $220,000 $230,000 $250,000

Answer: $240,000 Initial outlay = Price of New Machine + Shipping/Installation + Required NWC + Net Proceed from Sale of Old Machine = 220,000 + 10,000 + 10,000 + 0 = 240,000

The new machine will be depreciated via the straight-line depreciation method to a salvage value of $0. However, at the end of the new machine's five-year life, it can be sold for $30,000. Therefore, "If accepted, the new machine will increase annual revenues by $150,000 and will increase annual operating cost by $45,000. The company has a marginal tax rate of 40% and a cost of capital of 14%. The project will last 5 years If the marginal tax rate is 40%, what is the terminal cash flow of the project? $28,000 $18,000 $40,000 $48,000

Answer: $28,000 Terminal Value = Recap of Working Capital + Net Proceeds from Sale of New Machine = 10000 (WC) + 30000(Price of the machine) - 12000(Tax effect) = $28,000. Remember, terminal cash flow refers to the cash flows associated with "winding down" (or "wrapping up") a project. The final year's operating cash flows are attributable to time 5, but are NOT included in terminal cash flows.

TippingToys is considering the purchase of a new toy-making machine that will increase revenues by $50,000 a year and annual costs by $10,000. The new machine will cost $100,000 with shipping and installation fees of $10,000. The machine will be depreciated via 5-year MACRS schedule (20.0%, 32.0%, 19.2%, 11.5%, 11.5%, 5.8%). The firm estimates that the new machine can be sold at the end of its five-year life for $20,000. The new machine will necessitate an investment of $30,000 in working capital that will be fully recovered at the end of the project.

TippingToys is considering the purchase of a new toy-making machine that will increase revenues by $50,000 a year and annual costs by $10,000. The new machine will cost $100,000 with shipping and installation fees of $10,000. The machine will be depreciated via 5-year MACRS schedule (20.0%, 32.0%, 19.2%, 11.5%, 11.5%, 5.8%). The firm estimates that the new machine can be sold at the end of its five-year life for $20,000. The new machine will necessitate an investment of $30,000 in working capital that will be fully recovered at the end of the project. Tipping Toys has a 10% cost of capital and a corporate tax rate of 40%. What is the terminal cash flow of the project? $44,552 $30,000 $38,172 $42,000

Answer: $44,552 Remember that "terminal cash flow" refers only to the cash flows that occur because the project concludes (sometimes called 'wrap-up' or 'wind-down' cash flows). The major components are the sale of the "new" equipment purchased at project origination (including any tax implications) plus the recapture of working capital. Note: recall that we are using a 5-year MACRS schedule and have claimed 5 years of depreciation. But, the 5-year schedule has 6 factors. So, to fully depreciate an asset under a 5-year schedule requires 6 years (note: don't look for logic in the tax code!). Since we have claimed only 5 years, there is still 5.8% of the original depreciable base remaining on the books (i.e., the sixth year's depreciation under the 5-year MACRS schedule is 5.8%). That is, at the end of the 5th year the book value of the new equipment = depreciable base x .058 = 110k x .058 = $6,380. This has important implications for the calculation of terminal cash flows. Specifically, if we sell the asset for $20k, the taxable gain will be: 20,000 - 6,380 = $13,620. This creates a tax liability of $5,448 (=13,620 x .4). Hence, the net proceeds from selling the equipment at the end of 5 years = sale price - tax liability = 20,000 - 5448 = $14,552.

XYZ Company is considering the purchase of new equipment. The firm spent $12,000 on consulting several months ago as well as $7,000 on a market study about a year ago. In order to start the new project, the firm has to replace the old machine which has a book value of $0 and will be scrapped. The new machine will cost the firm $220,000. Additionally, XYZ will spend $7,000 in installation and $3,000 in shipping. Since the new machine will produce more, an investment in net working capital of $10,000 is required. The new machine will be depreciated using straight-line depreciation to a salvage value of $0. However, the realizable salvage value of the new machine at year 5 is expected to be $50,000. What is the total cash flow for Year 2? $22,440 $68,440 $70,000 $24,000

Answer: $68,440 CF2 = EBIT X (1 - t) + Depr Exp - Change in NWC = (Revenue - Cost - Depr Exp) X (1-t) + Depr Exp - Change in NWC = (125,000 - 45,000 - 46,000) X (1 - 0.34) + 46,000 - 0 = 68,440 Depreciation Expense Calculation: Depreciable asset: 220000+7000+3000 = 230,000 Annual Depreciation: (230000-0)/5 = 46000

What is the depreciation expense in Year 3? $76,800 $89,280 $84,480 $65,280

Answer: $76,800 The depreciable asset is $400,000 (which is the cost of new machine, installation and shipping), and the depreciation percentage is 19.20% of that. 400000*.192 = 76800

What is the terminal cash flow of the project? $88,000 $60,000 $97,280 $72,480

Answer: $97,280 WC 28,000 Sale of New 100,000 BV of New (5.8%*400000) (23,200) Gain/Loss 76,800 Tax (30,720) Cash from Sale 69,280 Terminal CF 97,280

A firm has EBIT of $126 million and earnings before taxes (EBT) of $101 million. What is the firms degree of financial leverage? (Round to the nearest hundredth: .00)

Use the following information to calculate the payback period for the project. Initial Outlay $(10,000) Year 1 $6,000 Year 2 $7,000 Year 3 $6,400 Year 4 $5,600 Year 5 $5,000 2.00 years 1.67 years 1.57 years 1.00 year

Answer: 1.57 years After year 1, the project is $4k short of "paying back" the initial investment ($10k initial investment - $6k year 1 inflow). The $4k needed to achieve payback will require 57% of year 2 inflows ($4k/$7k). Hence, the payback is: Payback Period = 1 + (4000/7000) = 1.57 years

Use the following information to answer the question. Initial Outlay $ (5,000) Year 1 $ 3,000 Year 2 $ 3,500 Year 3 $ 3,200 Year 4 $ 2,800 Year 5 $ 2,500 What is the payback period of above cash flows? 1.57 years 1.00 year 1.67 years 2.00 years

Answer: 1.57 years Year 1 cash flow will be used to payback a part of the initial outlay and $2,000 will be left to payback still. Since Year 2 has more cash inflow than needed to achieve payback, payback period can be calculated as: 1 + (2000/3500) = 1.57 years.

ABC Corp is considering a project requiring the purchase of new equipment. The firm spent $20,000 on a market assessment four months ago as well as $14,000 for a feasibility study a year ago. In order to start the new project, the firm has to replace an old machine with a remaining book value of $25,000 (note: this is the original salvage value of the old machine; as such, it is fully depreciated). While still functional, the machine has no market value and will be scrapped if the new equipment is acquired. The new machine will cost the firm $220,000. In order to put the machine in working condition, ABC will spend $6,000 in installation and $4,000 in shipping. If the new machine is purchased net working capital will be increased by $10,000. The new machine will be depreciated via the straight-line depreciation method to a salvage value of $0. However, at the end of the new machine's five-year life, it can be sold for $30,000. The corporate tax rate is 40%. If accepted, the new machine will increase annual revenues by $150,000 and will increase annual operating cost by $45,000. The company has a marginal tax rate of 40% and a cost of capital of 14%. The project will last 5 years. What is the tax implication from the sale of the new machine at Year 5 (the end of its useful life)? Tax shields of $2,000 Tax liabilities of $12,000 Tax liabilities of $2,000 Tax shields of $12,000

Answer: Tax liabilities of $12,000 The machine is fully depreciated to a book value of $0. Hence, all of the sale proceeds are taxable. Tax liability = (Realizable salvage value - Book value) X Tax Rate = (30,000 - 0) X 0.40 = $12,000.

What is the tax implication on the sale of the new machine at Year 5? Tax liabilities of $33,000 Tax liabilities of $17,000 Tax shield of $17,000 Tax shield of $33,000

Answer: Tax liabilities of $17,000 (Realized salvage value - Book value) X Tax Rate = (50,000 - 0) X 0.34 = $17,000. Since it is capital gain, the firm will have tax expense.

TippingToys is considering the purchase of a new toy-making machine that will increase revenues by $50,000 a year and annual costs by $10,000. The new machine will replace an outdated machine with a current book value of $10,000 but if scrapped now can only be sold for $6,000. The new machine will cost $100,000 with shipping and installation fees of $10,000. The machine will be depreciated via 5-year MACRS schedule (20.0%, 32.0%, 19.2%, 11.5%, 11.5%, 5.8%). The firm estimates that the new machine can be sold at the end of its five-year life for $20,000. The new machine will necessitate an investment of $30,000 in working capital that will be fully recovered at the end of the project. Tipping Toys has a 10% cost of capital and a corporate tax rate of 40%. What is the tax implication of selling the old machine? Tax liabilities of $1,600 There is no tax effect Tax shield of $4,000 Tax shield of $1,600

Answer: Tax shield of $1,600 Sale of Old 6,000 BV of Old (10,000) Gain (Loss) (4,000) Tax shield 1,600 Note: since the sale of the old equipment results in a $4000 taxable loss, a tax shield of $1600 is created ($4k loss x .4 tax rate). Hence, the net cash impact of selling the old equipment = $6000 sales price + $1600 tax shield = $7600.

If a WACC of 15.00% is used to compute the NPV, what does the IRR computed in question 110, above, tell about the project? The project is acceptable. The NPV is too large. No decision can be made based on the data. The project is unacceptable.

If a firm is considering a new project which will generate the following cash flows: IO = -145, YR1 = 100, YR2 = 100, YR3 = 100, YR4 = 100, YR5 = -275, what is the IRR of the project? Assume that the discount rate of the project is 12.76% 8.78% 26.65% 12.76% There are multiple IRR

Answer: There are multiple IRR Since there are multiple sign changes in cash flows, there are multiple IRRs which are 8.78% and 26.65%. IRR cannot be used in this circumstance.

If the book value of the old machine was $40,000 (instead of $10,000), then the initial outlay will: decrease by $12,000 increase by $30,000 decrease by $30,000 increase by $12,000

Answer: decrease by $12,000 If the BV of the old machine was also $40,000, then there will be no tax liability on the sale of the old asset. Therefore you will save $12,000 in taxes. Hence, the initial outlay would be $12,000 lower. Cost of New Machine (340,000) Installation/Shipping (60,000) Depreciable Assets (400,000) Working Capital (28,000) Price of Old 40,000 BV of Old (40,000) Gain/Loss - Tax - Net Sales of Old 40,000 Total Cash Flow (388,000)
