Capital Budgeting For the following two projects, determine the 1. Payback Period 2. Discounted Payback 3. Net Present Value 4. Profitability Index (Benefit-Cost Ratio) 5. Internal Rate of Return 6. Modified Internal Rate of Return Project A Project B Year Net Income Cash Flow Net Income Cash Flow 0 (15,000) (19,000) 1 5,000 6,000 3,000 4,000 2 5,000 6,000 5,000 6,000 3 5000 6,000 7,000 8,000 4 5,000 6,000 11,000 12,000 Risk Index 1.80 .60 The firm’s cost of capital ko is 15% and the risk free rate Rf is 10%. The firm assesses risk and assigns a risk index to determine a risk adjusted discount rate. An index of 1.0 would be assigned to an average risk project. To determine risk adjusted rates the firm uses the following equation: Risk Adjusted Rate (RADR) = Rf + [Risk Index (ko – Rf) Task: Rank the projects in accordance with each method of analysis..

Project A :

Risk adjusted rated for Project A = 10 + 1.8* ( 15 - 10) = 19%
Payback period = 2 + ( 15000-12000) / 6000 = 2.5 years
Discounted payback period = 3 + ( 15000 - 12839) / 2992.01 = 3.72 years
Net present value = present value of cash inflows - initial investment = 15831.51 - 15000 = 831.51
Profitability index = Present value of cash inflows / initial invetsmnet = 15831.51 / 15000 = 1.055
Project B :

| Total | 21142.92914 | 
Payback period = 3 + ( 19000 - 18000) / 12000 = 3.08 years
Discounted payback period = 3 + ( 19000 - 13783) / 7359.82 = 3.71 years
Net present value = 21142.93 - 19000 = 2142.93
PI = 21142.93 / 19000 = 1.11
