Problem 23-4A

Sanchez Corporation is considering three long-term capital investment proposals. Relevant data on each project are as follows.

Project

Brown

Red

Yellow

Capital investment $189,010 $218,420 $248,620 Annual net income: Year 1 25,311 20,105 26,124 2 16,280 20,105 24,491 3 13,301 20,105 23,013 4 10,397 20,105 17,434 5 8,046 20,105 20,039 Total $ 73,335 $100,525 $111,101
Salvage value is expected to be zero at the end of each project. Depreciation is computed by the straight-line method. The company’s minimum rate of return is the company’s cost of capital which is 12%.

Explanation / Answer

(a) Annual rate of return = Average profit after tax/Initial capital Invested

Brown = $14667/189010 = 7.76%

Red = $20105/218420 = 9.20%

Yellow = $22220.20/$248620 = 8.94%

Working notes:

Computation of Average PAT

For brown

Average Profit After Tax = $73335/5 = $14667

For Red

Average Profit After Tax = $20105

For yellow = $111101/5 = $22220.20

(b) Calculation of cash Payback period for brown

Cash payback period = 3 +(189010-168298)/48199

= 3.43 years

For Red

Net income befor depreciation per year = 20105+463684 = 63789

Cash payback period = 218420/63789 = 3.42 years

For yellow

Cash back period = 3 + (248620-222800)/67158

= 3.38 years

(c) Calculation of NPV

For brown

For Red = 3.604*63789 - 218420

= 11476

For yellow

Year Net Income before depreciation Cummulative net income 1 63113 63113 2 54082 117195 3 51103 168298 4 48199 216497 5 45848 262345
