4、PV and Stand-Alone Projects Consider a take-it-or-leave-it investment decision involving a single,stand-alone project for Fredricks Feed and Farm(FFF).The project costs$250 million and is expected to generate cash flows of$35 million per year,starting at the end of the first year and lasting forever
5、.6-6 NPV Rule The NPV of the project is calculated as:The NPV is dependent on the discount rate.35NPV 250 6-7 Figure 6.1 NPV of Fredricks Fertilizer ProjectIf FFFs cost of capital is 10%,the NPV is$100 million and they should undertake the investment.6-8 Alternative Rules Versus the NPV Rule Sometim
6、es alternative investment rules may give the same answer as the NPV rule,but at other times they may disagree.When the rules conflict,the NPV decision rule should be followed.6-9 6.2 The Internal Rate of Return Rule Internal Rate of Return(IRR)Investment Rule Take any investment where the IRR exceed
7、s the cost of capital.Turn down any investment whose IRR is less than the cost of capital.6-10 The Internal Rate of Return Rule(contd)The IRR Investment Rule will give the same answer as the NPV rule in many,but not all,situations.In general,the IRR rule works for a stand-alone project if all of the
8、 projects negative cash flows precede its positive cash flows.In Figure 6.1,whenever the cost of capital is below the IRR of 14%,the project has a positive NPV and you should undertake the investment.6-11 Applying The IRR Rule In other cases,the IRR rule may disagree with the NPV rule and thus be in
9、correct.Situations where the IRR rule and NPV rule may be in conflict:Delayed Investments Nonexistent IRR Multiple IRRs6-12 Applying The IRR Rule(contd)Delayed Investments Assume you have just retired as the CEO of a successful company.A major publisher has offered you a book deal.The publisher will
10、 pay you$1 million upfront if you agree to write a book about your experiences.You estimate that it will take three years to write the book.The time you spend writing will cause you to give up speaking engagements amounting to$500,000 per year.You estimate your opportunity cost to be 10%.6-13 Applyi
11、ng The IRR Rule(contd)Delayed Investments Should you accept the deal?Calculate the IRR.The IRR is greater than the cost of capital.Thus,the IRR rule indicates you should accept the deal.6-14 CFj1000000Gold-500000CFj3IRRGold23.38NjFinancial Calculator Solution6-15 Applying The IRR Rule(contd)Delayed
12、Investments Should you accept the deal?Since the NPV is negative,the NPV rule indicates you should reject the deal.23500,000500,000500,000 1,000,000$243,4261.11.11.16-16 Figure 6.2 NPV of Stars$1 Million Book DealWhen the benefits of an investment occur before the costs,the NPV is an increasing func
13、tion of the discount rate.6-17 Applying The IRR Rule(contd)Multiple IRRs Suppose Star informs the publisher that it needs to sweeten the deal before he will accept it.The publisher offers$550,000 advance and$1,000,000 in four years when the book is published.Should he accept or reject the new offer?
14、6-18 Applying The IRR Rule(contd)Multiple IRRs The cash flows would now look like:The NPV is calculated as:234500,000500,000500,0001,000,000 550,000-1 (1 )(1 )(1 )NPVrrrr6-19 Applying The IRR Rule(contd)Multiple IRRs By setting the NPV equal to zero and solving for r,we find the IRR.In this case,the
15、re are two IRRs:7.164%and 33.673%.Because there is more than one IRR,the IRR rule cannot be applied.6-20 Figure 6.3 NPV of Stars Book Deal with Royalties6-21 Applying The IRR Rule(contd)Multiple IRRs Between 7.164%and 33.673%,the book deal has a negative NPV.Since your opportunity cost of capital is
16、 10%,you should reject the deal.6-22 Applying The IRR Rule(contd)Nonexistent IRR Finally,Star is able to get the publisher to increase his advance to$750,000,in addition to the$1 million when the book is published in four years.With these cash flows,no IRR exists;there is no discount rate that makes
17、 NPV equal to zero.6-23 Figure 6.4 NPV of Stars Final OfferNo IRR exists because the NPV is positive for all values of the discount rate.Thus the IRR rule cannot be used.6-24 Applying The IRR Rule(contd)IRR Versus the IRR Rule While the IRR rule has shortcomings for making investment decisions,the I
18、RR itself remains useful.IRR measures the average return of the investment and the sensitivity of the NPV to any estimation error in the cost of capital.6-25 Textbook Example 6.16-26 Textbook Example 6.1(contd)6-27 6.3 The Payback Rule The payback period is amount of time it takes to recover or pay
19、back the initial investment.If the payback period is less than a pre-specified length of time,you accept the project.Otherwise,you reject the project.The payback rule is used by many companies because of its simplicity.6-28 Textbook Example 6.26-29 Textbook Example 6.2(contd)6-30 Alternative Example
20、 6.2 Problem Projects A,B,and C each have an expected life of 5 years.Given the initial cost and annual cash flow information below,what is the payback period for each project?ABCCost$80$120$150Cash Flow$25$30$356-31 Alternative Example 6.2 Solution Payback A$80$25=3.2 years Project B$120$30=4.0 yea
21、rs Project C$150$35=4.29 years6-32 The Payback Rule(contd)Pitfalls:Ignores the projects cost of capital and time value of money.Ignores cash flows after the payback period.Relies on an ad hoc decision criterion.6-33 6.4 Choosing Between Projects Mutually Exclusive Projects When you must choose only
22、one project among several possible projects,the choice is mutually exclusive.NPV Rule Select the project with the highest NPV.IRR Rule Selecting the project with the highest IRR may lead to mistakes.6-34 Textbook Example 6.36-35 Textbook Example 6.3(contd)6-36 IRR Rule and Mutually Exclusive Investm
23、ents:Differences in Scale If a projects size is doubled,its NPV will double.This is not the case with IRR.Thus,the IRR rule cannot be used to compare projects of different scales.6-37 IRR Rule and Mutually Exclusive Investments:Differences in Scale(contd)Consider two of the projects from Example 6.3

25、ng of the cash flows,even when the scale is the same.IRR is a return,but the dollar value of earning a given return depends on how long the return is earned.Consider again the coffee shop and the music store investment in Example 6.3.Both have the same initial scale and the same horizon.The coffee s
26、hop has a lower IRR,but a higher NPV because of its higher growth rate.6-39 IRR Rule and Mutually Exclusive Investments:Differences in Risk An IRR that is attractive for a safe project need not be attractive for a riskier project.Consider the investment in the electronics store from Example 6.3.The
27、IRR is higher than those of the other investment opportunities,yet the NPV is the lowest.The higher cost of capital means a higher IRR is necessary to make the project attractive.6-40 The Incremental IRR Rule Incremental IRR Investment Rule Apply the IRR rule to the difference between the cash flows
28、 of the two mutually exclusive alternatives(the increment to the cash flows of one investment over the other).6-41 Textbook Example 6.46-42 Textbook Example 6.4(contd)6-43 Comparison of Minor and Major OverhaulsFigure 6.5 NPV Profiles for Example 6.16-44 Alternative Example 6.4Suppose your firm is c

32、contd)Solution(contd)Because the 12.47%incremental IRR is bigger than the cost of capital of 10%,the long-term project is better than the short-term project,even though the short-term project has a higher IRR.6-49 The Incremental IRR Rule(contd)Shortcomings of the Incremental IRR Rule The incrementa
