  9. Chapter 10 Making Capital Investment Decisions

  10. What is the Criterion? Maximizing Firm Value

  11. What Cash Flows (CFt ) are Relevant? Only those cash flows that occur with the project but not without the project are relevant, i.e., only incremental cash flows are relevant. • Sunk Costs? • Opportunity Costs? • Externalities, e.g., erosion

  12. How are Cash Flows Defined? Total Cash Flows = OCF -  NWC - Fixed Assets OCF = Bottom Up: Net Income + Depreciation Top-Down: Sales - Costs - Taxes Tax Shield: (Sales-Costs)*(1-T) + T*Depreciation

  13. Problems 19 and 29

  14. NPV and Economic Value Added (EVA) NPV is the Difference between the PV of cash inflows and the PV of cash outflows. EVA is the periodic difference between the after-tax return provided by the firm’s assets [EBIT*(1-T)] and the after-tax return (in $) investors require from those assets [r*Initial Invested Capital]. EVA = [EBIT*(1-T)]- r*Initial Invested Capital Under some circumstances, NPV and the PV of all EVAs are identical!!!

  15. The EVA Financial Management Systemby Stern, Stewart, and Chew The EVA system makes the cost of capital explicit. To increase shareholder wealth with EVA, managers must • Increase operating efficiency (that is, increase EBIT) without investing more in the company’s assets. • Invest in new projects so long as EVA is positive • Stop investing in projects whose EVA is negative EVA calculations capitalize, rather than expense, such things as R&D that add to the long-term profitability of the firm.

  16. The EVA Financial Management System(Continued) EVA can help in such tasks as • Communicating financial goals within the firm and investment community • Evaluating business plans • Allocating resources • Evaluating ongoing performance • Compensating employees for their contributions

  17. The EVA Financial Management System(Continued) • EVA and Corporate Rewards: • Pay cash bonuses that reward managers for improvements in EVA over time. • Performance rewards are symmetric for up and down movements in EVA. • Annual bonuses are banked and held in “at risk” accounts. • Objective formulas for rewards replace subjective negotiation. • Managers are encouraged to buy leveraged stock options • The options are in-the-money and are purchased, not granted. • The exercise price increases at the cost of capital. • Managers must use proceeds from their EVA bonuses to purchase the LSOs
