I. Introduction
What is capital budgeting?
Capital budgeting is the process that companies use for decisionmaking on long-term projects.
Why is capital budgeting important?
Capital budgeting is important because:
• It helps decide the future of many corporations. Most capital
investments require huge investments that are not easy to reverse.
• It can be adopted for many other corporate decisions such as
investment in working capital, leasing, and mergers and acquisitions.
• Capital budgeting decisions are consistent with the management goal
of maximizing shareholder value.
II. The Capital Budgeting Process
• There are 4 steps in Capital Budgeting Process
Generating ideas
Analyzing
individual
proposals
Planning
and capital
budgeting
Monitoring
and postaudit
The capital budgeting process
• Step 1- Generating ideas is the most important step in the process.
Investment ideas can come from anywhere within the organization or
outside.
• Step 2 - Analyzing individual proposals is to gather information to
forecast cash flows for each project and then computing the project’s
profitability. Output of this step is a list of profitable projects.
The capital budgeting process
• Step 3 - Planning and capital budgeting is to answer these questions
Do the profitable projects fit in with the company’s long-term
strategy? Is the timing appropriate? Some projects may be profitable
in isolation but not so much when considered along with the other
projects. Scheduling and prioritizing of projects is important.
• Step 4 - Monitoring and post-audit: Post-audit helps in assessing how
effective the capital budgeting process was. How do the actual
revenues, expenses, and cash flows compare against the predictions?
Categories of Capital Budgeting Process
Capital budgeting projects may be divided into the following categories:
• Replacement projects: these are projects where the firm must either:
replace worn out equipment or invest in new equipment that is expected
to lower current production costs and/or increase current sales.
• Expansion projects: these are projects where the firms are constructing a
new plant or expanding capacity of the existing one.
• New products and services: these are projects where the firms are
diversifying current business operations to maintain a competitive edge.
Categories of Capital Budgeting Process
Mandatory projects: these would be projects that are required by the government
or by the regulatory authority
Other projects: Pet projects of senior management or high-uncertainty projects like
R&D projects that are difficult to analyze using the traditional methods.
III. Basic Principles of Capital Budgeting
1. Decisions are based on cash flows
2. Timing of cash flows is vital

3. Cash flows are based on opportunity costs.
4. Cash flows are analyzed on an after-tax basis.
5. Financial costs are ignored.
Independent Versus Mutually exclusive Projects
• Independent projects are projects that are unrelated to each other
and allow for each project to be evaluated based on its own
profitability.
• Mutually exclusive means that only one project in a set of possible
projects can be accepted and that the projects compete with each
other.
Project sequencing
• Sometimes projects can only be executed in a sequence.
Project A
Project B
Project C
Unlimited funds versus Capital Rationing
• Unlimited funds refers to the financial situation in which a firm is able
to accept all independent projects that provide an acceptable return.
• Capital rationing refers to the financial situation in which a firm has
only a fixed number of dollars available for capital expenditures, and
numerous projects compete for these dollars.
4. Investment Decision Criteria
Analysts use several important criteria to evaluate capital
investments. There are four main methods:
- Net present value (NPV)
- Internal rate of return (IRR)
- Payback and discounted payback period
- Profitability index (PI)
Net Present Value (NPV)
• Net present value is the present value of the future after tax cash
flows minus the investment outlay.
Decision rule:
For independent projects: If NPV > 0, accept.
If NPV < 0, reject.
For mutually exclusive projects:
Accept the project with higher and positive NPV.
Example:
• Compute NPV for projects A and B given the following data:
• Cost of capital: 10%
• Expected net after tax cash flows

Internal Rate of Return (IRR)
IRR is the discount rate that makes the present value of future cash flows equal to
the investment outlay. In other words, IRR is the discount rate which makes NPV
equal to 0.
Decision rule:
For independent projects:
If IRR> required rate of return (or cost of capital), accept the project.
If IRR< required rate of return (or cost of capital), reject the project.
For mutually exclusive projects:
Accept the project with higher IRR (as long as IRR > cost of capital)
Example
Compute IRR for projects A and B given the following data.
Cost of Capital = 10%, Expected Net After Tax Cash Flows

Payback Period
The payback period is the number of years it takes to recover the
initial cost of the investment.
Example: 2 projects with an initial cash outlay of $20,000 with
following free cash flows.

Advantages:
- Easy to calculate
- Easy to explain
- Indicator of project liquidity. A project with a small payback period is
more liquid than one with a longer payback period as the initial
investment is recovered more quickly.
• Drawbacks:
- Does not consider cash flows after payback period.
- It does not consider the time value of money as the cash flows are not
discounted at the project’s required rate of return.
- Does not consider the risk of a project.
•
Discounted Payback Period
Discounted payback method uses the present value of the estimated
cash flows; it gives the number of years to recover the initial
investment in present value terms.
Example: Compute the payback period and the discount payback
period assuming a rate of 10%.

Drawbacks of discounted payback method:
•
•
•
Does not consider any cash flows beyond the payback period.
Poor measure of profitability as there may be negative cash flows after the
discounted payback period which may result in a negative NPV.
Profitability index
Profitability Index is the present value of a project’s future cash flows
divided by the initial investment.
Investment decision rule for PI:
Invest if PI>1.
Do not invest if PI<1.
Difference between PI and NPV
•
•
•
•
Consider two projects A and B. Project A has an initial investment of
$1 million and an NPV of 0.1 million. Project B has an initial
investment of $1 billion and an NPV of 0.2 million. If projects A and
B are mutually exclusive, then project B would be chosen because
of higher NPV. But, if you consider the profitability index, it gives a
different picture.
PI of project A = 1 +0.1/1 = 1.1
PI of project A = 1 +0.1/1000 = 1.0002
Based on PI, project A is more profitable than project B.
NPV Profile
NPV profile is a graph that plots a project’s NPV for different rates.
The NPV is shown on the y-axis with the discount rates on the x-axis.

NPV profile
There are two important points on the graph:
1- The point where the profile goes through the Y-axis (240) is the NPV of the project when the
discount rate is 0. This is equal to the sum of the undiscounted cash flows.
2- The point where the profile goes through the X-axis (22) is where the discount rate is equal
to the IRR of the project.

Ranking conflicts between NPV and IRR
•
•
•
For single and independent projects with conventional cash flows,
there is no conflict between NPV and IRR decision rules. However,
for mutually exclusive projects the two criteria may give conflicting
results.
What is a conventional cash flows?
The reason for conflict is due to differences in cash flow patterns
and differences in project scale.

cash flow patters)

1. Based on the NPV rule, the project with the highest NPV, project Y
is selected.
2. Based on the IRR rule, the project with the highest IRR, project X is
selected.
3. Whenever NPV and IRR rank two mutually exclusive projects
differently, we must always choose the one with the higher NPV – in
this case, project Y.
Reasons for going with NPV instead of IRR:
•
•
IRR incorrectly assumes that intermediate cash flows can be
reinvested at the IRR rate. Just because project X gives a return of
21.86%, it does not mean the intermediate cash flows can be
reinvested at that rate.
NPV uses a realistic discount rate assumption of 10%. It is the
opportunity cost of funds. You can easily find other projects to
invest that will give a return of 10%. Hence it is safe to assume that
the intermediate cash flows can be reinvested at this rate. The NPV
assumes that cash flows are reinvested at the required rate of
return.
The Multiple IRR Problem and No IRR Problem
If a project has unconventional cash flows, it can have multiple IRRs,
i.e., there are more than one discount rates that will produce an NPV
equal to zero. The NPV profile of a project with multiple IRRs
intersects the x-axis at more than one point.
Zero IRR
Some projects do not have an IRR, i.e. there is no discount rate that
results in a zero NPV.

Possibility of multiple IRRs or no IRR for a project.
Relationship between NPV and Stock Price
-
-
The value of a company can be measured as the existing value plus
the present value of its future investments. NPV is a direct measure
of the expected change in the firm’s value from undertaking a
capital project.
A positive NPV project should cause a proportionate increase in a
company’s stock price. But, if the project’s profitability is less than
expectations, then the stock price may be negatively impacted.
Example
A company is undertaking a project with an NPV of $500 million. The
company currently has 100 million shares outstanding and each share
has a price of $50. What is the likely impact of the project on the stock
price?

What is cost of capital?
Cost of capital is the rate of return that the suppliers of capital require
as compensation for their contribution of capital.
contribute money
lend money to
Lenders
return (cost)
ABC
Company
return (cost)
Owners
There are two main sources of capital: Debt and Equity.
Debt is the money which come from lenders. When a lender lends
money to the company, obviously, he is expecting a return. The return
the lender expects is a cost to the company.
Equity is the money which contribute by owners. Owners are also
expecting a return. From the company’s perspective that would be the
cost.
The company invests in a given project if the return is greater the
cost of capital.
• Riskier projects will require a higher cost of capital.
• The cost of capital is the rate of return expected by investors for
average-risk investment in a company.
• One way of calculating this cost is to determine the weighted
average cost of capital (WACC), which is also called the marginal
cost of capital.
(It is called marginal because it is the additional or incremental cost a
company incurs to issue additional debt or equity)
•
Weighted average cost of capital (WACC)
Three common sources of capital are common shares, preferred
shares, and debt.
Example
ABC company has the following capital structure: 30 percent debt, 10
percent preferred stock, and 60 percent equity. The before-tax cost of
debt is 8%, cost of preferred stock is 10%, and cost of equity is 15%. If
the marginal tax rate is 40%, what is the WACC?
WACC = (0.3) (0.08) (1 - 0.4) + (0.1) (0.1) + (0.6) (0.15) = 11.44%
Taxes and The Cost of Capital

Weights should be based on:
- Market values.
- Target capital structure.
•
In the absence of explicit information about a firm’s target capital
structure, one may estimate it using one of the following approaches:
• Current capital structure based on market value weights for the
components (most common method).
• Trend in the firm’s capital structure or statements made by
management regarding capital structure policy.
• Average of comparable companies’ capital structures as the target
capital structure.
Example:
•
You gather the following information about the capital structure
and before-tax component costs for a company. The company’s
marginal tax rate is 40 percent. What is the cost of capital?
•
Use the market value to calculate the weights of each component.

Security Valuation
Costs of the different Sources of Capital
•
✔
✔
✔
Each source of capital has a different cost because of differences in
risk, and potential value as a tax shield. Three primary sources of
capital are:
Debt
Preferred Equity
Common equity
Cost of Debt
Cost of debt is the cost of financing to a company using debt
instruments such as taking a bank loan or issuing a bond.
Two methods to estimate the before-tax cost of debt are:
•
The yield to maturity (YTM) approach
•
Debt-rating approach
Yield to Maturity Approach
YTM is the annual return an investor earns if the bond is purchased
today and held until maturity. It is the rate at which the present value
of all future cash flows equals the market price of the bond.
Example
A company issues a 10-year, 8% semi-annual coupon bond, par value is equal to
1000. Upon issuance, the bond sells for $980. If the marginal tax rate is 30%, what is
the after-tax cost of debt?
N = 20
PV = -980;
FV = 1000;
PMT = (0.08/2) * 1000 = 40
Compute I/Y = 4.15 %
Annual I/Y = 4.15 x 2 = 8.30 = before-tax cost of debt
After-tax cost of debt = 8.30 x (1 - 0.3) = 5.8%
Debt Rating Approach
•
•
Use the debt rating approach when a reliable current market price
for a company’s debt is not available.

Use the company’s marginal tax rate to determine after-tax cost.
Cost of Preferred Stock
•
•
The cost of preferred stock is the cost that a company has
committed to pay to preferred stockholders in the form of
preferred dividend. Unlike common dividend which is variable,
preferred dividend is usually fixed and paid before common
shareholders.
The cost of preferred stock can be computed as:
Example
A company issues preferred stock with par value $100 that is currently
valued at $125 per share. The preferred dividend is $5 per share. The
marginal tax rate is 33 percent. What is the cost of preferred stock?
Cost of preferred stock = 5/125 = 4%.
Cost of Common Equity
Cost of common equity, or cost of equity, is the rate of return required
by a company’s common shareholders. It is the return expected by
investors for the risk they undertake.
Three commonly used methods to estimate the cost of equity are:
• Capital asset pricing model
• Dividend discount model
• Bond yield plus risk premium method
Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) Approach
The cost of equity is equal to the risk free rate plus a premium for
bearing the security’s market risk. The premium is the beta for the
security multiplied by the equity risk premium.
Example
In a developing market, the risk-free rate is 10% and the equity risk
premium is 6%. The equity beta for a given company is 2. What is the
cost of equity using the CAPM approach?
re = 0.1 + 2 [0.06] = 22%
Dividend Discount Model (DDM) Approach
Present value of a perpetuity: Assume an investment gives a cash
flow of $10 at the end of each period forever. This is called a
perpetuity, as the cash flow continues forever. If the discount rate is
5%, the present value of this infinite cash flow can be calculated as
10/0.05 = 200.
Present value of a growing perpetuity
The cash flow for every successive period grows at a rate of 2%. $10
in period 1, $10.2 in period 2, $10.404 in period 3, and so on. The
present value of a growing perpetuity can be computed as:
The dividend discount mode
•
The dividend discount model states that the intrinsic value of a
financial asset, such as a stock, is the present value of future cash
flows (dividends).
The dividend discount model
•
Gordon growth model is one example of a DCF model. It is also
called the constant growth dividend discount model. If the
dividends grow at a constant growth rate g, then the price of the
stock can be written as:
Example
You have gathered the following information about a company and the market:
Current share price = 30
Most recent dividend paid = 2
Expected dividend payout rate = 40%
Expected ROE = 15%
Equity beta = 1.5
Expected return on market = 15%
Risk free rate = 8%
Using the DCF approach, what is the cost of retained earnings?
Bond Yield plus Risk Premium Method
•
•
In this method, we add a risk premium to the yield on the firm’s
long-term debt. The assumption here is that the return on a
company's equity will be greater than the return on the company's
bond, as equity is riskier than the bond.
re = bond yield + risk premium
