Assignment:

Evaluating a Capital Expense Using the Payback Method

The Happy Healing Hospital CFO has just sent a memo to all departments requesting a list of any capital expenses along with the justification for each item requested. The decision bring the Release of Information copy service back to in house rather than outsourcing it. You have already completed the research for leasing verses purchasing the equipment to be used for the project. At this point, it is a matter of deciding which option would be best financially and writing the justification for your recommendations to present at the weekly department meeting. To Purchase

You estimate that to purchase there will be an initial investment of $34,000 for a printer/fax/copy machine and dedicated computer. The estimated income will be $55,000 over the next 5 years. Current staff will be used.

Complete the table below.

(Hint: Your “remaining balance will be carried over as the investment for the following year.)

To Lease

Your research shows that the same equipment will cost $3,000 per month to lease with no initial investment. However, there is a maintenance contract that will cost an additional $150 per month. Create a table to show these expenses.

Evaluation and Recommendation

Evaluate the two tables. Which do you feel would be the better option?

Write a brief justification for your recommendation using this information with a specific comparison between the two options.

The current stock price of RWJ is $312.32. You have the following quotes on RWJ options:

a. Which of the options are in the money?
b. What is the exercise value of a February call option with a strike price of $315?
c. Suppose you buy 10 contracts of the February 315 call option. How much will you pay, ignoring

commissions
d. Suppose you buy 10 contracts of the February 315 call option. If RWJ stock is selling for $310 per

share on the expiration date, what is your profit or loss?
e. Suppose you buy 10 contracts of the February 315 call option. If RWJ stock is selling for $320 per

share on the expiration date, what is your profit of loss?
f. Suppose you buy 10 contracts of the May 320 put option. What is the maximum profit you could

achieve?

You and your team are financial consultants who have been hired by a large, publicly traded electronics firm, Brilliant Electronics (BI), a leader in its industry. The company is looking into manufacturing its new product, a machine using sophisticated state of the art technology developed by BI’s R&D team, overseas. This overseas project will last five years. They’ve asked you to evaluate this project and to make a recommendation about whether or not the company should pursue it. BI’s management team needs your recommendation and the analysis used to arrive at it by no later than December 4, 2019.

The following market data on BI’s securities are current:

Debt: 210,000 6.4 percent coupon bonds outstanding, 25 years to maturity, selling or 108 percent of par; the bonds have $1000 par value each and make semi-annual payments

Common Stock: 8,300,000 shares outstanding, selling for $68 per share; beta=1.1

Preferred Stock: 450,000 shares of 4.5% preferred stock outstanding, selling or $81 per share

Market: 7 percent expected market risk premium; 3.5 percent risk-free rate

The company bought some land three years ago for $3.9 million in anticipation of using it as a toxic dump site for waste chemicals, but it built a piping system to safely discard the chemicals instead. The land was appraised last week for $4.4 million on an after-tax basis.   In five years, the after-tax value of the land will be $4.8 million, but the company expects to keep the land for a future project. The company wants to build its new manufacturing plant on this land; the plant will cost $37 million to build.

At the end of the project (the end of year 5), the plant can be scrapped for $5.1 million. The manufacturing plant will be depreciated using the straight line method.

The company will incur $6,700,000 in annual fixed costs excluding depreciation. The plan is to manufacture 15,300 machines per year and sell them at $11,450 per machine; the variable production costs are $9,500 per machine. Selling price and costs are expected to remain unchanged over the life of the project.

BI uses PK Global (PKG) as its lead underwriter. PKG charges BI spreads of 8% on new common stock issues, 6% on new preferred stock issues, and 4% on new debt issues. PKG has included all direct and indirect issuance costs (along with its profit) in setting these spreads. BI’s tax rate is 35 percent. The project requires $1,300,000 in initial net working capital investment to get operational. Assume BI raises all equity for new projects externally (that is, BI does not use retained earnings).

The weighted average flotation cost is the sum of the weight of each source of funds in the capital structure of the company times the flotation costs, so:

f_T = ($564.4/$827.65)(0.08) + ($36.45/$827.65)(0.06) + ($226.8/$827.65)(0.04) = 0.0682, or 6.82%

Thus the initial investment is increased by the amount of flotation costs:

                    (Amount raised)(1 – 0.0682) = $37,000,000   

                    Amount raised = $37,000,000/(1 – 0.0682) = $39,708,092

Your analysis should include, and your recommendation should be based on, the following:

1. Calculate the firm’s current cost of capital using the information provided.

2. Calculate the project’s cost of capital (the appropriate discount rate to use to evaluate BI’s new project) assuming the capital structure will remain the same if the project is undertaken.

This project is somewhat riskier than a typical project for BI; therefore, management has asked you to use an adjustment factor of 12% to account for this increased riskiness (that is, to add 12% to the firm’s cost of capital) to estimate the project’s required rate of return.

(NOTE: Flotation costs do not have to be considered when calculating the required rate of return for each class of security – they are addressed in this problem by adjusting the cost of the initial investment to $39,708,092 from $37,000,000).

3. Calculate the project’s annual cash flows, taking into account all the relevant cash flows.
   1. Calculate the project’s initial Time 0 cash flow, taking into account all relevant cash flows.
   2. Calculate the project’s annual operational cash flows (OCF) over the life of the project.
   3. Calculate the project’s terminal (last year of the project) cash flow.   Include all relevant cash flows.

                (Note: You can present the cash flows from Year 0 to Year 5 in a table format)

4. What is the NPV and IRR of the project?
