Northwest Natural Gas stock was selling for $49.43 per share at the start of 2015. Dividend payments for the next year were expected to be $2.00 a share. What is the expected return (r), assuming no growth?

before: 55.53 after: 100 before (no growth): 8.33 / 0.15 = 55.53 after (with growth): g = plowback x ROE = 0.40 x 0.25 = 0.10 = 10% growth 60% x 8.33 = 5.00 = new dividend P0 = Div1 / (r-g) = 5.00 / (0.15 - 0.10) = 5.00 / 0.05 = 100

Our company forecasts to pay a $8.33 dividend next year, which represents 100% of its earnings. This will provide investors with a 15% expected return. Instead, we decide to plowback 40% of the earnings at the firm's current return on equity of 25%. What is the value of the stock before and after the plowback decision?

what are the 3 pitfalls of internal rate of return?

NPV and IRR

what are the most commonly used primary investment criteria?

1. capital investment 2. operating cash flow 3. investment in working capital

what are the three elements of project cash flows?

capital expenses and working capital

what are the two aspects of applying the net present value rule, rule 1: discount cash flows, not profits?

1. calculate NPV for each project 2. calculate PI = NPV / investment

what are the two steps to calculate profitability index?

1. knowing a return is intuitively appealing 2. it is a simple way to communicate the value of a project to someone who doesn't know all the estimate details 3. if the IRR is high enough, you may not need to estimate a required return, which is often difficult

what are three advantages of IRR?

1. easy to understand and communicate 2. useful when available investment funds are limited

what are two advantages of profitability index?

IRR (because there is more than one IRR when there are more than one negative cash flows)

what can you not use if there are more than one negative cash flows?

time horizon for your investment

what does the "H" in some formulas stand for?

payback

what is a commonly used secondary investment criteria?

market capitalization rate

what is expected return also called?

it may lead to incorrect decisions in comparisons of mutually exclusive investments

what is one disadvantage of profitability index?

rule 5: remember to deduct taxes

what rule does all of the following: - cash flows should be estimated on after-tax basis - subtract cash outflows for taxes from pretax cash flows and discount net amount - be careful to subtract cash taxes - cash taxes paid are usually different from taxes reported on the income statement

rule 2: discount incremental cash flows

what rule does all of the following: - include all incidental effects - do not confuse average with incremental payoffs - forecast product sales today but also recognize after-sales cash flows - include opportunity costs - forget sunk costs - beware of allocated overhead costs - remember salvage value

remember to deduct taxes

profitability index

when resources are limited, what provides a tool for selecting among various project combinations and alternatives?

payback method

which method uses an arbitrary value?

IRR sometimes ignores the magnitude of the project

why are mutually exclusive projects a pitfall?

because it ignores later year cash flows and the present value of future cash flows

why is the payback method flawed?

$5.5 year: CF(real): nominal: NPV@15%: 0 -100 = -100 -100 1 35 = 35x(1.10)^1= 38.5= 38.5/1.15 = 33.48 2 50 = 50x(1.10)^2= 60.5= 60.5/1.15^2 = 45.75 3 30 = 30x(1.10)^3= 39.9= 39.9/1.15^3 = 26.23 nominal rate = 15% add up NPV values: -100 + 33.48 + 45.75 + 26.23 = 5.5

you invest in a project that will produce real cash flows of -$100 in year zero and then $35, $50, and $30 in the three respective years. If the nominal discount rate is 15% and the inflation rate is 10%, what is the NPV of the project?
