23、PVNPV7.3 Inflation and Capital Budgeting Inflation is an important fact of economic life and must be considered in capital budgeting.Consider the relationship between interest rates and inflation,often referred to as the Fisher relationship:(1+Nominal Rate)=(1+Real Rate)(1+Inflation Rate)For low rat
24、es of inflation,this is often approximated as Real Rate Nominal Rate Inflation Rate While the nominal rate in the U.S.has fluctuated with inflation,most of the time the real rate has exhibited far less variance than the nominal rate.When accounting for inflation in capital budgeting,one must compare
25、 real cash flows discounted at real rates or nominal cash flows discounted at nominal rates.Example of Capital Budgeting under Inflation Sony International has an investment opportunity to produce a new stereo color TV.The required investment on January 1 of this year is$32 million.The firm will dep
26、reciate the investment to zero using the straight-line method.The firm is in the 34%tax bracket.The price of the product on January 1 will be$400 per unit.The price will stay constant in real terms.Labor costs will be$15 per hour on January 1.The will increase at 2%per year in real terms.Energy cost
27、s will be$5 per TV;they will increase 3%per year in real terms.The inflation rate is 5%Revenues are received and costs are paid at year-end.Example of Capital Budgeting under InflationThe riskless nominal discount rate is 4%.The real discount rate for costs and revenues is 8%.Calculate the NPV.Year

35、timelike we just did with the air cleaners.Compute NPV for the“repeated projects”.7.4 Investments of Unequal Lives:The Equivalent Annual Cost Method There are times when application of the NPV rule can lead to the wrong decision.Consider a factory which must have an air cleaner.The equipment is mand
36、ated by law,so there is no“doing without”.There are two choices:The“Cadillac cleaner”costs$4,000 today,has annual operating costs of$100 and lasts for 10 years.The“cheaper cleaner”costs$1,000 today,has annual operating costs of$500 and lasts for 5 years.Which one should we choose?7.4 Investments of

46、the next years autoclaving and the old one will cost$620 for one more year.7.5 Summary and Conclusions Capital budgeting must be placed on an incremental basis.Sunk costs are ignored Opportunity costs and side effects matter Inflation must be handled consistently Discount real flows at real rates Discount nominal flows at nominal rates.When a firm must choose between two machines of unequal lives:the firm can apply either the matching cycle approach or the equivalent annual cost approach.
