Investment Analysis: What Investments Should I Make?

Objectives • • • What are the important issues/considerations in making investment decisions?

What is capital budgeting?

How do we analyze a project?

Investment Issues/Concepts • • • • • Growth Strategies Capital Budgeting – Economic Profitability – Financial Feasibility Risk Portfolio Considerations Tax Considerations

Capital Budgeting Decisions • • • Managers are responsible for identifying investments that create value Impact cash flows over multiple periods Factors to consider: – Strategic Direction – Estimation of future benefits – Uncertainty of future benefits

Capital Budgeting • Two Questions: – Economic profitability – Does it earn a profit above all costs?

– Financial feasibility – Will it cash flow?

Economic Profitability

Time Value of Money • • • Money has a time value – “The sooner, the better.” Money preferred to inventory – Can be invested Benefit of investments are in the future – Adjust for cost of waiting

$100 Today or $100 Tomorrow • • Why $100 today – Opportunity costs/earnings foregone Adjust for cost of waiting – Discount /penalize future income

What is NPV?

• • Converts money flows in the future into a single current value Used to evaluate alternative investments and the effects of the timing of cash flows and opportunity costs on the decisions

Net Present Value • • • Rationale for NPV approach is related to the “value of the firm” If take on a project with NPV<0, value of the firm falls – owners are worse off.

However, if we accept a project with NPV>0, then the value of the firm increases – owners are better off.

Steps in Economic Profitability (NPV analysis) 1. Compute discount rate 2. Calculate present value of cash outlay 3. Calculate annual net cash flows 4. Calculate present value of net cash flows 5. Compute net present value 6. Accept or reject investment

Specialty Grain and On-Farm Storage • • • • • • • • • Purpose: add on farm storage to store specialty grain Build from scratch Investment outlay $76,800 5 year life with $30,000 salvage value Will store 60,000 bushels IP corn Finance with 40% debt, 60% equity 35% tax bracket Target ROE is 15.1% (9.8% after tax) Borrow funds at 8.3% (5.3% after tax)

• • Step 1. Compute the Discount Rate Discount rate is the price at which a dollar of cash flow is exchanged between periods – Exchange price between present and future dollars Essential element in any present value analysis

Step 1: Compute the Discount Rate • • Penalty of delay in receiving cash is the cost of financing So the discount rate is the cost of capital

Step 1. Calculating Cost of Capital (discount rate)

Marginal Income Tax Rate

Federal State Total [A + B]

Cost of Borrowed Funds

Cost of debt capital After-tax cost of debt capital [D x (1 - C)]

After Tax Cost of Equity Capital

Rate of return on investment opportunities After-tax cost of equity [F x (1 - C)]

Weighted Cost of Capital

Percent of assets financed with debt * Percent of assets financed with equity [1 - H] After-tax cost of capital [(E x H) + (G x I)] A B C 30% 5% 35% D E 8.1% 5.3% F G 15.1% 9.8% H I J 40% 60% 8.0%

Step 2. Calculate the NPV of cash outlay • • • Purchase price is $76,800 No additional working capital needed and sale is completed immediately Present value of outlay = $76,800

Step 3. Calculate the Annual Net Cash Flows Calculate for each year . . . cash revenue less cash expenses less taxes plus terminal value = Net Cash Flows Cash flows:  exclude depreciation  Ignore unpaid labor and management

Two Sources of Income • • Specialty grain revenue Storage revenue

Calculate Cash Revenue Revenue of IP crop over #2 yellow Revenue from Storage $23,68 0 18,352 Net Cash Revenue $42,032

Calculate Cash Expenses Expenses of IP crop over #2 yellow $12,960 Expenses of Storage 7,341 Net Cash Expenses $20,30 1

Calculate Cash Income Revenue Expenses Net Cash Income $42,032 - 20,301 $21,731

Calculate Taxes Cash Revenue Cash Expenses Depreciation Net Income $42,032 - 20,301 - 5,760 $15,971 Net Income x tax rate = taxes $15,971 x .35 = $5,590

Calculate Net Cash Flow: year one Cash Revenue Cash Expenses Taxes Net Cash Flow $42,032 - 20,301 - 5,590 $16,141

Step 3. Calculate the Annual Net Cash Flows

Step 4. Calculate the present value of the net cash flows • This is the sum of the discounted annual net cash flows (net cash flow times discount factor) for each year

Present value of the net cash flows 15,151 13,289 11,680 23,592 $78,658

Step 5. Compute the NPV NPV = Present value of the net cash flows minus the present value of the cash outlay $78,658 - $76,800 = $1,858

Step 6. Accept or Reject

NPV > 0 NPV < 0 Accept Reject

Interpretation of NPV 1. If NPV is positive  Invest  Rate or return greater than minimum acceptable rate (hurdle rate)  Return exceeds cost of financing 2. Maximum Bid price  Outlay plus/minus NPV

Feasibility Analysis

Feasibility Analysis

Will the project cash flow?

Steps in Financial Feasibility Analysis 1. Calculate annual net cash flow 2. Calculate loan repayment schedule 3. Calculate tax savings from interest deductibility 4. Calculate after tax payment schedule 5. Calculate surplus or deficit each year

Step 1. Calculate the Annual Net Cash Flow • Already calculated as part of economic feasibility when doing NPV

Step 2. Calculate loan repayment schedule • Calculate annual principal and interest payments based on loan repayment schedule

Step 3. Calculate tax savings from interest deductibility • • Net cash flows are after-tax, but the payment schedule is pre-tax Payment schedule must be adjusted to after-tax by calculating tax savings from deductibility of interest

Step 5. Calculate surplus/deficit each year • • • Compare annual net cash flow to after-tax annual principal and interest payments to find a surplus or deficit A surplus means the project is financially feasible A deficit means loan servicing problems are likely

Dealing with Deficits • • • • • Extend the loan terms Increase the amount of the down payment Increase cash flow of the project by controlling costs Subsidize with cash from another project (the feasibility test will indicate the amount of the subsidy) Lease/outsourcing
