Question

Problem II (50 Points) Using payback, ARR, NPV, and IRR to make capital investment decisions Water Country is considering purchasing a water park in Atlanta, Georgia, for $1,200,000. The new facility will generate annual net cash inflows of $400,000 for eight years. Engineers estimate that the facility will remain useful for eight years and have no residual value. The company uses straight-line depreciation, and its stockholders demand an annual return of 12% on investments of this nature. 1. Compute the payback period. Amount invested Expected annual net cash inflow Payback 2. Compute the Accounting Rate of Return Total net cash inflows during operating life of facility Average annualOperating life net cash inflowof facility Total depreciation during = Cost - Residual value operating life of facility

Explanation / Answer

Cost of Water Park

$        1,200,000

Annual Cash Net Inflow

$            400,000

Period of Inflow

8 years

Straight Line Method Depreciation

= 1200000 / 8

$        150,000

Expected Annual Returns

12%

1. Payback Period

Payback =

Amount Invested

Expected Annual Net Cash Inflow

=

$        1,200,000

$            400,000

=

3

years

2. Accounting Rate of Return

Total Net Cash inflows during operating life of facility

= Average annual net cash flow x Operating life facility

= 400,000 x 8

$        3,200,000

Total Depreciation during operating Life of Facility

= Cost - Residual Value

= 1,200,000 - 0

$        1,200,000

Total Net Cash inflows during operating life of facility

$        3,200,000

Less : Total Depreciation during operating Life of Facility

$        1,200,000

Total Operating Income during operating life in years

$        2,000,000

Divide by : Facility operating life in years

$                         8

Average annual Operating income from facility

$            250,000

Average amount Invested

= Amount Invested + Residual Value

2

= 1,200,000 / 2

$            600,000

ARR

= Average annual Operating income from facilty

Average amount Invested

= 250,000 / 600,000

41.67%

3. Net Present Value

Initial Investment

$        1,200,000

NPV of Facility

$            787,056

4. Compute Internal Rate of Return

Annuity PV Factor

= Initial Investment / Amount of each net cash flow

(I = ?%, n=8)

=1,200,000 / 400,000

2. Accounting Rate of Return

Total Net Cash inflows during operating life of facility

= Average annual net cash flow x Operating life facility

= 400,000 x 8

$        3,200,000

Total Depreciation during operating Life of Facility

= Cost - Residual Value

= 1,200,000 - 0

$        1,200,000

Total Net Cash inflows during operating life of facility

$        3,200,000

Less : Total Depreciation during operating Life of Facility

$        1,200,000

Total Operating Income during operating life in years

$        2,000,000

Divide by : Facility operating life in years

$                         8

Average annual Operating income from facility

$            250,000

Average amount Invested

= Amount Invested + Residual Value

2

= 1,200,000 / 2

$            600,000

ARR

= Average annual Operating income from facilty

Average amount Invested

= 250,000 / 600,000
