Debt Policy of a Company
Modigliani and Miller View :
There are two propositions as per Modigliani and Miller in terms of capital structure
of the Company .
Proposition I :
The propositions I states that in a perfect capital market the value of the firm does
not depend on the capital structure. Actually the value of the firm is dependent on
its productive capacity and the productive capacity is dependent on the fixed asset
of the company . Since the fixed asset of the firm would remain constant , the
productive capacity would also remain constant and this results in the valuation of
the firm unchanged.
Let us give an example to clear this concept. Suppose there are two firms and both
are having Rs 10,000 investment in fixed asset . One firm financed this fixed asset
entirely by equity and the second firm financed it with 50% debt and 50% equity. As
per Modigliani and Miller hypothesis I both the firm would have the same value as
the productive capacity is same and in a perfect capital market the valuation of the
firm does not depend on the capital structure ( for example see page no 448 to 450.
Proposition II :
This states that the expected return of stock on a firm increases with the degree of
financial leverage. Though the overall cost of capital remains the same, the expected
return on equity goes up with the degree of leverage and the benefit arising out of
low cost debt would be compensated with the increase in required return on equity
resulting in the overall return on asset of the firm unchanged. ( for calculation see
page no 454 , 455 ) . This is represented by the following equation :
3
rE = rA + ( rA – rD ) [D/E] …………………………….1
rE = Required return on equity
rA = Return on asset
rD = Return on Debt
D = Market Value of debt
E = Market Value of Equity
Problem 1 : Hubbard’s Pet food is financed by 80 percent by common stock and 20
percent by bonds. The expected return on the common stock is 12 percent and the
rate of interest on the bonds is 6 percent. What would be the expected return on
equity at 30% and 50% debt to equity ratio?
Solution : The Company’s cost of capital is :
rA = ( 0.8* 12% ) + (0.20* 6%) = 10.8% ;
at 30% leverage the required return on equity is given by rE = rA + ( rA – rD )
[D/E] = 10.8% + (10.8% -6% ) * (0.30/0.70) = 12.86% and at 50% debt and
50% equity we have the required return of equity is 15.60% .
The proposition II explains why the value of the firm remains the same even when
we change the capital structure.
An important formula :
4
The beta of the firm’s asset is the weighted average of the betas of the individual
securities. This is explained with the help of the following equation :
Beta asset = ( proportion of debt * debt beta ) + ( proportion of equity * beta
equity )
βA = [ D/(D+E)] * βD + [ E/(D+E) ] * βE ……………………..2.
Problem 2 : Schuldenfrei pays no taxes and is financed entirely by common stock.
The stock has a beta of 0.8 , price earning ratio of 12.5 and is priced to offer 8%
expected return. Schuldenfrei now decides to repurchase half of the common stock
and substitute with an equal value of debt. If debt yields a risk free 5 percent ,
calculate the beta of the company after the refinancing , the required return and risk
premium on the stock before the refinancing and the required return and risk
premium on the stock after the refinancing.
Solution : Before the refinancing, Schuldenfrei is all equity financed. The equity beta
is 0.8 and the expected return on equity is 8%. Thus, the firm’s asset beta is 0.8 and
the firm’s cost of capital is 8%. We know that these overall firm values will not
change after the refinancing and that the debt is risk-free.

After the refinancing, the risk premium for the stock is 6%.
The traditional view of capital structure :
The expected return on portfolio of all the securities of a company is often referred
to as the weighted average cost of capital :
Weighted Average Cost of Capital = rA = ( D/V) * rD + rE * ( E/V) .
It is used in capital budgeting decisions to find the net present value of projects that
would not change the business risk of the firm.
In many times we are confused with the goal of a company . Out of the following
two options what is the goal of the company ?
1. Maximising the value of the firm .
2. Minimising the weighted average cost of capital ;
The value of the firm is given by the present value of discounted future cash flows .
So the value of the firm is given by :
Value of the firm = Σ Present value of the cash flows of the firm
= Σ ( Future cash flow of the firm )/ ( appropriate discount
rate time adjusted )
If the cash flow of the firm does not change with the change in discount rate,
then the minimization of the denominator i.e. the minimization of weighted
average cost of capital would maximise the value of the ratio. However if the
future cash flow of the firm changes due to change in weighted average cost of
capital , then the valuation of the firm does changes. In such case the goal of the
firm should be maximising the value of the firm not the minimization of the
weighted average cost of capital .
6
According to the traditional view of the capital structure of the firm, they hold that
the valuation of the firm does depend on the capital structure . As per their view ,
the required return on equity does increases with the increase in leverage but not in
the same degree as prescribed by the MM II. So the increase in required return on
equity on levered firm is less than the benefit derived from low cost financing of
debt and this resulted in the maximization of the value of the firm at a particular
debt to equity ratio. So as per their stand point, a firm can have a optimum debt
equity ratio at which the valuation of the firm is maximum. However when an
irresponsible firms borrow excessively then the required return on equity shoots up
faster than MM II proposition and this would reduce the valuation of the firm. For
pictorial comparison of these two theory please see fig 17.3 page number 460.
Problem 3 : Capital Netto is financed solely by common stock , which offers an
expected return of 13 percent. Suppose now that the Company issues debt and
repurchases stock so that its debt ratio is 0.4. Investors note the extra risk and raise
their required return on the stock to 15 percent. What is the interest rate on debt ? If
the debt is risk free and beta of the equity after refinancing is 1.5 , what is the
expected return on the market ?
Solution :
Since in this case the company is fully equity financed, the return on asset rA is 13%
which is equal to return on equity. Now by using the equation 1 , we get :
15% = 13% + (13% -rD ) * ( 0.4/0.6)
Solving this we get rD 10% .
The required return on equity is given by the CAPM as per the following :
rE = rf + β (rm - rf )
15% = 10% + 1.5 (rm – 10% )
7
rm = 13.33% .
Problem 4: Executive Cheese has issued debt with a market value of USD 100
million and has outstanding 15 million shares with a market price of USD 10 a
share. It now announces that it intends to issue a further USD 60 million of debt and
to use the proceeds to buy back common stock. Debtholders , seeing the extra risk,
mark the value of the existing debt down to USD 70 million .
a) How is the market value of the stock affected by the announcement ?
b) How many shares can the Company buy back with USD 60 million of new
debt that it issues?
c) What is the market value of the firm ( equity plus debt ) after the change of
capital structure ) ?
d) What is the debt ratio after the change in structure ?
e) Who gains or losses?
Solution :
a) The value of the existing debt goes down by USD 30 million and this is the
gain of the equity holder as the total value of the firm remains unchanged.
So the value of the equity would be USD 10 * 15 million plus USD 30
million i.e. USD 180 million . The value of per share would be USD 180
million / 15 = USD 12 . The share value gains by USD 2 per share.
b) The number of shares can be bought = USD 60 million/ USD 12 = 5
million;
c) The market value of the firm would remain unchanged.
d) The debt ratio after the change in structure would be 130/250 = 0.52;
e) The gain is for equity holders and the loss is for old debt holders.

Borrowing Capacity of the firm In the previous section we have not considered the concept of certain benefits which
debt enjoys compared to that equity financing. In the case of debt the amount of
interest paid is tax deductible and for this amount the firm would not pay any tax.
So if a Company finance its capital structure with a debt , then the firm as a whole
enjoys certain benefits . This can be understood clearly with the help of the following
example :
Two firms wants to purchase one fixed asset each and the nature of fixed asset is
same. Let us assume that the cost of the fixed asset is Rs 100 lacs. One firm decides
to fund this fixed asset with 100 % equity and another firm with 50% debt and 50%
equity. The return on asset would be paid back to the lenders consisting of both debt
and equity holder ( this is important as many time we find that return is only for the
equity holder ) . Now firm A and Firm B would be having same amount of
operating cash flow since it is the fixed asset which determines the production
capacity. Let us assume that the firm’s EBIT is Rs 10 lacs and the cost of debt is 10% .
Now the tax structure is as follows :
For debt borrowing the entire interest payment is deductible ;
For interest earning of the lender , the interest income is taxed at 20% ;
For equity , dividend payment attracts dividend distribution tax at 10% ;
For equity in the case of lender , the dividend income is tax free.
Corporate tax is 30% ;
Based on the above we shall calculate the total return on the lender i.e. both debt
holder and equity holder :
( Rs in lacs)
Firm A Firm B
EBIT 10 10
Interest 0 5 ( @10% on Rs 50 lacs)
EBT 10 5
Tax @ 30% 3 1.5

If we see from the above example , we find that the return to the lender is increased
from Rs 6.30 lacs for firm A all equity finance to Rs 7.465 lacs for firm B due to tax
shields on interest paid and also due to income from equity is taxed at a lower rate.
So it shows that the value of the firm does change due to change in capital structure .
For relative tax advantage see page no 494 and 495.
Problem 1: Compute the present value of interest tax shields generated by these
three debt issues . The marginal tax rate is 35% :
a) A USD 1000 , one year loan at 8 percent ;
b) A five year loan of USD 1000,at 8 percent , assume no principal payment
until maturity;
10
c) A five year loan of USD 1000, at 8 percent , with equal annual principal
payment for 5 years ;
d) A USD 1000 perpetuity at 7 percent ;
Solution :
a) The tax shield is USD 1000 * 8% * 0.35= 28 ; The present value of tax
shield is Rs 28/1.08 = Rs 25.93;
b) The tax shield for this debt repayment is calculated as below :

Assume that MM theory holds with taxes. There is no growth , and the $ 40 of debt is
expected to be permanent. Assume a 40 percent corporate tax rate.
a) How much of firm’s value is accounted for by the debt generated tax
shield ?
b) How much better off will UF’s shareholders be if the firm borrows $ 20
more and uses it to repurchase stock?
c) Now suppose that subsequently Congress of US , passes a law which
eliminates the deductibility of interest for tax purpose after a grace
12
period of five year what would be the new value of the firm ( assume an
8 percent borrowing rate ) .
Solution :
a) PV of tax shield is the value of the firm increased because of debt
financing . So the value of the firm which is increased because of this is
40*0.40= USD 16 ;
b) The stock holders would be better off by the tax shield = 20 * 0.40=
USD 8 ;

The Company value is 168-24+7.67= 151.67;
Problem 3 : a) What is the relative tax advantage of corporate debt if the corporate
tax rate is Tc = 0.35 , the personal tax rate is 0.31 , but all equity income is received as
capital gains and escapes tax entirely . b)How does the relative tax advantage change
if the company decides to pay out all equity income as cash dividend?
13
Solution : Relative advantage of debt = ( 1- Tp ) / [ ( 1- TpE) (1- Tc ) = 0.69/[(1)(0.65)]
= 1.06;
b. Relative Advantage = 0.69/(0.69)*(0.65) = 1.54;
We have seen that borrowing in the form of debt helps the firm to increase the value.
However, along with the borrowing , we can have another problem which is called
cost of financial distress. This cost has to be deducted to find out the value of the
firm. So value of the firm can be found out by using the following formula :
Value of the firm = Value if all equity financed + PV ( tax Shield ) – PV ( cost of
financial distress) .
Financial distress can be of two nature one is the bankruptcy cost ( page no 497 to
503) and other is the cost before bankruptcy ( 503 to 507) . In case a firm has not
gone bankrupt , then equity holder and debt holder would behave differently . In
the time of distress , the equity holder would go ahead with more risky project
without taking the safe project ( page no 503 ) . The equity holder would also not
likely to contribute to the equity capital required for a project which would increase
the valuation of the firm. This results in the conflict of interest. So to protect the
interest of the debt lenders so that such situation does not arise , at the time of
lending it self debt holders would put negative covenants. This cost of distress varies
from industry to industry depending on the nature of asset financed out of
borrowing. In the case of industry which require more real asset like steel , power
etc, the cost of distress would be less and accordingly we can find that such type of
industry would have more debt than industry like software where the asset is
mostly intangible. So the nature of industry would also like to have a role on the
capital structure .
This would led to trade off theory . This theory states that the Company’s borrowing
strategy in terms of loan depends on the advantage of tax shield and disadvantage of
cost of financial distress. Firms depending on the nature of industry have different
target ratios. Company’s having more tangible asset would like to set higher debt to
equity target ratio whereas companies having lower tangible asset would be having
14
low debt to equity target ratio. Unlike MM theory which says that the firm should
take more and more debt , trade off theory suggests that the firms should avoid
extreme situation and rationalise moderate debt ratios.
Pecking Order theory of financing choices :
As per this theory a firm would raise fund by issuing the securities in the following
sequence :
First it would prefer internal finance;
They adapt their target dividend payout ratios to their investment
opportunities , while trying to avoid sudden changes in dividends ;
Sticky dividend policies , plus unpredictable fluctuations in profitability and
investment opportunities mean that internally generated cash flows are some
time more or less than the capital expenditure and depending on the amount
the firm pays off or draws down marketable securities;
If external finance is required , firms issue the safest security first. That is they
start with debt , then possibly hybrid securities such as convertible bonds and
then perhaps equity as the last resort.
For financial slack please see page 514.
Problem 4 : The following is the balance sheet of a firm Circular File in terms of
market value :
Liability Asset
Bond outstanding 25 CA-CL 20
Common Stock 5 Fixed Asset 10
Total 30 Total 30
Who gains and who loses from the following maneuvers ?
a. Circular scrapes up $ 5 in cash and pays cash dividend.
b. Circular halts operations, sells its fixed assets , and converts its net
working capital into $ 20 cash. Unfortunately the fixed assets fetch
only $ 6 c on the second hand market. The $26 cash is invested in
treasury bills ;
15
c. Circular encounters an acceptable investment opportunity , NPV=0
, requiring an investment of $ 10 . The firm borrows to finance the
project . The new debt has the same security , seniority etc.
d. Suppose that the new project has NPV +2 and is financed by an
issue of preferred stock.
e. The lender agrees to extend the maturity of their loan from one year
to two in order to give Circular a chance to recover.
Solution : Gainers : a. Stock holder; b. Bond Holders ; c. Stock Holders; d.
Bond Holders; Stock Holders.
Weighted Average Cost of Capital :
Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) = rD ( 1- Tc) [D/V] + rE [ E/V]
The opportunity cost of capital would be r = rD [D/V] + rE [ E/V]
If we see the above two equations we find out that WACC is less than
opportunity cost of capital because of tax shield. WACC should be applied to
only those project which is of similar risk like the existing one and the D/E
ratio is maintained at the same level during the period of the project.
Find out the cost of debt : rD :
The debt can be loan , debenture. Both loan and debenture can be valued by
using the following bond valuation formula :
P0 = [C1/(1+rD)1] +[C2/(1+rD)2] + [C3/(1+rD)3]+ [C4/(1+rD)4]
+…….+[Cn/(1+rD)n]
Let us try to value both loan and debenture with the help of the above
equation :

In this case the cost of debenture is 2.39% * 4 = 9.56%.
Cost of equity can be found out by CAPM :
Ke = Rf + βE ( Rm – Rf ) .
While calculating the beta , we have to use the following methods :
Step 1 : Find out the levered beta at a particular debt to equity ratio.
20
Step 2 : Convert the levered beta into un levered beta by using the following
equation :
βUL = βL/ [1+(1-T)*D/E]
Step 3 : Convert this un levered beta into levered beta at a targeted debt equity ratio
:
βL = βUL * [1+(1-T)*D/E]
Step 4 : Finding out the appropriate risk free rate
Step 5 : Finding out the risk premium and then use of the equation:
Ke = Rf + β ( Rm-Rf)
Problem 1 : Calculate the WACC for Federal Junkyard of America, using the
following information :
Debt $ 75,000,000 book value outstanding . The debt is trading 90 percent of
par value . The YTM is 9 % .
Equity 2,500,000 shares selling at $42 per share. Assume that the expected rate
of return on equity is 18 %;
The marginal tax rate is 35%;
Solution : D = $ 69,500,000, Kd = 9% ; E = $ 105,000,000 ; Ke = 18% ;
21
WACC = 9% *(0.65) * 0.0.398+ 18% * 0.602 = 13.16% ;
Problem 2 : Suppose that the Company decides to move to a more conservative debt
policy. A year later its debt ratio is down to 15% ( D/V) and the interest rate has
dropped to 8.6% . Recalculate the WACC .
Solution : rA = 0.09*0.398 + 0.18*0.602 = 14.42%
Now rE = [ 14.42% - 8.6%*0.15]/0.85 = 15.44% ;
WACC = 8.6% 0.650.15+ 15.44%*0.85= 13.96% ;
Valuing companies : WACC vs Flow to Equity method :
WACC is normally used as a hurdle rate or discount rate to value proposed capital
investments. But sometimes, it is used as a discount rate for valuing the whole
company . However the following need to be kept in mind while using WACC for
valuation of a company :
Cash flows should not deduct interest . Calculate the tax as if the company is
all equity financed; The value of interest tax shield is picked up in the WACC
formula; Be careful in determining the terminal value; Discounting at WACC we get the value of the firm. If our intention is to get
the value of the equity , we have to deduct the debt part.

The Company’s operating income is $ 100.5 million . Assume for simplicity that this
figure is expected to remain constant for ever. The long term debt cost is 8 percent,
the short term debt cost is 6% , the expected return on equity is 15 percent. There are
7.46 million shares outstanding , and the shares are trading at $ 46. The tax rate is
35% .
Value the Company by the flow to equity method.
23
Solution :
Pre-tax operating income $100.5
Short-term interest 4.5
Long-term interest 16.7
Earnings before tax $79.3
Tax 27.8
Net income $51.5
Value of equity = $51.5/0.15 = $343.3
Value of firm = $343.3 + $75.6 + $208.6 = $627.5
Adjusted Present Value Method ( APV Method ) :
WACC , as a hurdle rate would be applicable if the project meets the two following
criteria :
The project is of same risk as the existing business;
The project would maintain the constant proportion of debt to equity ratio
during the entire tenure of the project;
If these two are not met , the WACC as a discount rate would not be correct method
for evaluating the project. In such case ,we have to evaluate the project under APV
method :
APV = base case NPV + sum of the present values of the side effects of accepting the
project.
Problem 4 : A project costs $ 1 million and has a base case NPV of exactly zero.
What is the project’s APV in the following cases ?
24
a) If the firm invests , it has to raise $ 500,000 by stock issue. Issue costs are 15
percent of net proceeds.
b) The firm has ample cash on hand. But if it invests , it will have access to $
500,000 debt financing at a subsidized interest rate . The present value of
subsidy is $ 175,000.
c) If the firm invests its debt capacity increases by $ 500,000. The present value
of interest tax shield on this debt is $ 76,000.
Solution :
a) APV = 0-75000= -75,000;
b) APV = 0+175,000 = 175,000;
c) APV= 0 + 76,000 = 76,000;
Problem 5 : Whispering Pines Inc is all equity financed . The expected rate of return
on the Company’s shares is 12 percent.
a) What is the opportunity cost of capital for an average risk Whispering Pines
investment ?
b) Suppose the company issues debt –repurchases shares and moves to a 30
percent debt to value ( D/V = 0.30) . What will the Company’s WACC a the
new capital structure ? The borrowing rate is 7.5% and the tax rate is 35% ;
Solution : a) The opportunity cost of capital would be 12% ;
c) rE = rA + (rA – rD ) D/E = 12% + (12% -7.5%) * (3/7) = 13.93% ;
WACC = 7.5%*0.3*0.65+13.9% *0.7= 11.19%;
Problem 6 : Consider a project lasting for one year only. The initial outlay is USD
1000 and the inflow is USD 1200 after one year. The opportunity cost of capital is
20% .
a) Calculate the base case of APV of the project .
b) Calculate the APV of the project is the 30% of the project cost is equity
financed , the interest cost is 10% and the tax rate is 35%;
Solution :
25
a) The base case NPV is = (1000) +1200/1.20 = 0; The opportunity cost of capital
is the all equity discounting rate.
b) APV = 0+ 300*0.35*10%/1.10= 9.55.
APV and hurdle rate :
The opportunity cost of capital is the expected rate of return offered in capital
market by equivalent risk project. This depends on the risk of the project’s cash flow.
The opportunity cost of capital is correct discount rate for the project if it is all equity
financed.
The adjusted opportunity cost of capital or hurdle rate reflects the financing side
effects of an investment project. So when financing affect is important , you have to
take the project with positive APV . But if you know the adjusted cost of capital ,
your decisions parameter is NPV at the adjusted discount rate. The WACC is the
most common way to calculate the adjusted cost of capital . ( page no 543 & 544)
Discounting Safe and nominal cash flow :
In case you have to discount safe and nominal cash flow , you have to discount the
same with the after tax unsubsidized borrowing rate . This should be after tax cost of
debt of the firm.
Problem 7 : The US government has settled a dispute with your Company for USD
16 million and it is committed to pay this amount in exactly 12 months .However ,
your company will have to pay tax on the award at a marginal tax rate of 35 percent .
What is the award worth if one year treasury rate is 5.5 percent ?
Solution : PV = 16 ( 1-0.35)/(1+0.055(1-0.35)) = $ 10.04 million.
Problem 8 : Digital Organics has the opportunity to invest $ 1 million now ( t=0) and
expects after tax returns of $6,000,000 in t=1 and $ 7,000,000 in t =2 ; The project
would last for two years only. The appropriate cost of capital is 12 percent with all
equity financing , the borrowing rate is 8 percent and DO will borrow $ 300,0000
against the project. This debt must be repaid in two equal installment. Assume the
26
debt tax shields have a net value of $0.30 per dollar interest paid . Calculate the

Problem 9 : Curtis Bog, CFO of Sphagnum Paper Corporation , is reviewing a
consultant’s analysis of the Company’s WACC. The consultant proposes :
WACC = (1-Tc ) rD (D /V) + rE (E/V)
= (1-0.35) (0.103)(0.55)+0.183(0.45)= 11.92% say 12%
Mr Bog wants to check that this calculation is consistent with the CAPM . He has
observed or estimated the following numbers :
Betas Beta ( debt ) = 0.15; Beta ( equity ) = 1.09
Expected market risk premium = 0.085
Risk free interest rate = 9 %

Using the Security Market Line, we calculate the opportunity cost of capital for
Sphagnum’s assets:
rA = rf + βA (rm – rf) = 0.09 + (0.6738 × 0.085) = 0.147 = 14.7%
Following MM’s original analysis and considering only corporate taxes, we have:
r* = r (1 – TC L)
r* = 0.147 × [1 – (0.35 × 0.55)] = 0.1187 or approximately 12%
This matches the consultant’s estimate for the weighted-average cost of
capital
Risk Adjusted Discount Rate :
A business organisation can have different departments and accordingly capital is
allocated to different department . In many cases , the company allocates the same
WACC for each division to evaluate the performance. The required return on capital
is based on the risk associated with each department. So if an organisation applies
uniform discount rate for each all divisions , it is assuming that all divisions are
having same discount rate . However this may not be the case. So this process is not
correct. Accordingly the organisation has to allocate discount rate for each division
as per the risk associated with the department . Such type of discount rate is called
Risk Adjusted Discount Rate ( RADR). Let us take an example to explain this
phenomena :
Case let 1 : ABC Private Limited is a private limited company having a turn over of
Rs 1500 crores . The company has interest in different business divisions. It has been
operating in Road Sector, Real Estate Sector, Education Sector and Entertainment
Sector. The equity capital allocated in these four division are Rs 150 crores, Rs 50
29
crores, Rs 30 crores and Rs 50 crores respectively. Since the company’s major income
is coming from road sector, the company allocate a Return On Equity of 18% to all
division. Do you think the company is doing the correct practices?
Solution : No the company is not doing the correct practices. The risk of four
divisions are different and accordingly different divisions should be charge with
different ROE. The ROE can be calculated for each division by adopting the
following method :
For Real Estate Sector , the company would follow the following steps:
Step 1: Identify three proxy companies which are listed
Step 2 : Calculate the levered beta of these three proxy companies by using the stock
price and index price .
Step 3 : Calculate the unlevered beta of the industry by using the levered to
unlevered equation :
βL = βUL 1 DE 1 t
Step 4 : Calculate the Levered beta of the division by using the debt equity ratio of
the division and using the same formula
Step 5 : Now calculate the Return on Equity by using the Capital Asset Pricing
Model
Similarly for other divisions the Return On Equity is calculated.
If after using these methodologies we have calculated the ROE for Real Estate is 25%
, For Education is 13% and For Entertainment is 21% , now the Weighted Average
Cost of Equity Would be :
ROE = 18% 25% 13% 21% = 19.25%
30
Capital Budgeting Decisions :
When we decide for undertaking investment in a capital project , the following is
the characteristics :
Money is invested at a time i.e. out flow of fund takes place at a time;
Inflow of fund is taking place at different point of time;
So there is time value of money concept is involved in analysing the capital
investment decision since there is a considerable difference between the
inflow and outflow of fund .
So any good project evaluation criteria must consider this time value of money.
However , even today there are certain criteria which does not takes into affect the
time value of money criteria. However this type of evaluation must not be adopted.
Based on this ,we are making a list of different evaluation criteria . The entire
evaluation criteria is divided into two category :
Category I ( where time value of cash flow is not considered )
o Pay Back method
o Book of return
Category II ( where time value of cash flow is considered )
o Discounted Pay back
o Net Present Value
o Internal Rate of Return
Since this method is more scientific, we shall concentrate our discussion only in the
Category II evaluation criteria.
Discounted Payback :
31
In this case we do take the discounted value of the cash flow and from this
discounted value we try to find out in how many years the initial outflow is
recovered. Let us take an example :
A Company wants to invest Rs 100 lacs for installation of a plant and machinery.
After the installation of plant and machinery , the machinery would generate the
following cash flows :
Time ( in
years )
1 2 3 4
Cash Flow ( in
rupees lacs )
20 30 50 60
If the discount rate is 12% , find the discounted pay back period.

4 60 0.635518078 38.1310847 115.4930563
32
Discounted pay back period is 3.59 years while the pay back period is 3 years.
NPV : This is the most scientific method of evaluation of the project. This is arrived
at with the help of the following formula :
NPV = [ C0 ] +[C1/(1+r)1] +[C2/(1+r)2] + [C3/(1+r)3]+ [C4/(1+r)4]
+…….+[Cn/(1+r)n]
Where r is the appropriate discount rate we arrive after applying the concept we
have learnt in chapter 18 and 19. If the project is of same risk and the project does not
involve change in capital structure, this is WACC.
If we take the above mentioned example , then the NPV of the project is calculated
as follows :
Time Cash flow
Discounted
Factor @ 12 %

Discounted

3 50 0.711780248 35.5890124
4 60 0.635518078 38.1310847
NPV 15.4930563
IRR of the project : The IRR of the project would be obtained by putting the NPV
value is equal to zero and then solving for r. IRR is the internal rate of return of the
project generates and if the internal rate of return of the project is more than the
required return of the project we shall accept the project.
33
In the above example the IRR of the project is :
Time Cash flow

3 50 0.609476048 30.47
4 60 0.516744097 31.00
NPV 0.00
The IRR of the project is 18% .
( you can use the MS Excel sheet to get the IRR).
Comparison of NPV and IRR :
The reinvestment rate assumption :
The correct interpretation for the reinvestment rate is that it is really the same thing
as the opportunity cost of capital. Both the NPV and the IRR rule make implicit
assumption about the reinvestment . The NPV rule assumes that the shareholders
can reinvest the money at the opportunity cost of capital , so it is the correct discount
rate. However, in the case of IRR rule, the assumption is that the investors can
reinvest the amount at the IRR of the project. This is wrong assumption.
34
The Value additivity Principle :
The project manager must be able to consider one project independently of all
others. This is knows as Value Additivity principle. To demonstrate that the IR rule
violates this principle, let us take the following example :
Year Project 1 Project 2 Project 3 PV factor
at 10%
1+3 2+3
0 -100 -100 -100 1.000 -200 -200
1 0 225 450 0.909 450 675
2 550 0 0 0.826 550 0
Project NPV at 10% IRR
1 354.30 134.5%
2 104.53 125.0%
3 309.05 350%
1+3 663.35 212.8%
2+3 413.58 237.5%
Projects 1 and 2 are mutually exclusive and project 3 is independent . If the value
additivity principle holds , we should be able to choose the better of the two
mutually exclusive projects without having to consider the independent project. If
we use the IRR rule we select project 1 . But if we consider combinations of projects,
then the IRR rule would prefer projects 2 and 3 to projects 1 and 3. The IRR rule
prefers project 1 in isolation but project 2 in combination with independent project.
So IRR rule does not hold value additivity principle. The implication is that the
35
management would have to consider all the possible combinations. However NPV
principle holds value additivity principle and accordingly we shall choose 1 in
isolation and 1+3 in combination.
Multiple rate of return :
If the projects cash flow involves more than one change in sign ( i.e. project involves
more than one outflow at different point of time during the tenure of the project )
we shall have more than 1 IRR. We have to decide which IRR is to adopt. So in such
case we can not select which IRR we have to take. But such problem would not
happen with NPV.
Capital Investment when resources are limited :
When the capital required for investment is limited, we have to find out a new
measurement called Profitability Index. The method of evaluation criteria is as
follows :
First we shall find out the NPV of each project independently.
Now we shall find out the Profitability Index of each project by applying the
following formula : NPV/Investment;
Now we shall calculate the weighted average Profitability Index of all the
possible combination within the overall capital constraints and we shall
accept that combination which is showing the highest value ( See Page no 105
to 107).
Problem 1 : Consider the following projects Alpha and Beta :
Cash flow
Project C0 C1 C2 IRR ( %)
Alpha -4,00,00 +241000 +293000 21
Beta -2,00,00 +131000 +172000 31
36
The opportunity cost of capital is 8 percent. Suppose you have to choose either
Alpha or Beta but not both, what project would you choose using the IRR rule ?
Solution :
The incremental flows from investing in Alpha rather than Beta are –200,000 and
+110,000 and +121,000 . The IRR on the incremental cash flow is 10 % ( i.e. –
200+110/1.10+121/1.102 = 0). The IRR on beta exceeds the cost of capital and so does
the IRR on Incremental investment in Alpha . Choose Alpha.
Problem 2 :
Borghia Pharmaceutical has $1 million allocated for capital expenditure. Which of
the following projects should be company accept to stay within the $ 1 million
budget ? How much does the budget limit cost the Company in terms of its market
value ? The opportunity cost of capital for each project is 11 percent .

Thus, given the budget of $1 million, the best the company can do is to accept
Projects 1, 3, 4, and 6.
If the company accepted all positive NPV projects, the market value
(compared to the market value under the budget limitation) would increase
by the NPV of Project 5 and the NPV of Project 7: ($7,000 + $48,000) = $55,000.
Thus, the budget limit costs the company $55,000 in terms of its market value.
Problem 10 : You are considering a five year lease of office space for R& D purpose .
Once signed , the lease can not be canceled. It would commit your firm to six annual
$100,000 payments with the first payment due immediately . What is the present
value of the lease if your Company’s borrowing rate is 9 percent and the tax rate is
35 percent .
38
Solution :
[$100,000 × (1 - 0.35)] + [$100,000 × (1 - 0.35) × (Annuity Factor5/9 (1 – 0.35)%)]
= $65,000 + $274,925 = $339,925
Making Investment Decisions with NPV Rule
While arriving at the NPV we have seen that there are two things we need to know .
They are :
Cash flows :
Discount Rate ;
We have already discussed in detail about different aspects of discount rate and
what would be the appropriate discount rate for a cash flow. We have discussed that
if the project is of similar risk and the project does not change the capital structure of
the Company , we can use WACC as the appropriate discount rate. However if both
the above conditions are not met ,we have to use the APV rule which says that first
we discount the cash flows with all equity finance rate which is the opportunity cost
of capital and then we add all the benefit of the financing structure and then
deducting the cost associated with such financing structure .
Now we have to decide the determination of cash flows . While calculating the cash
flow we have to adopt the following principles :
We have to always take the incremental cash flow i.e. fist we draw the cash
flow without the project and then with the project and the difference we get
the incremental cash flow ;
In the cash flow we have to include the opportunity cost and we shall not
include the sunk cost;
Working capital adjustment is required to arrive at the cash flow;
We have to treat inflation consistently i.e. if we take nominal cash flow then
the discount rate is nominal and vice versa with respect to real cash flow and
real interest rate.

Problem 1 : Naveen Enterprise is considering a capital project about which the
following information is available :
1. The investment outlay will be Rs 100 million. This consists of Rs 80 million on
Plant and Machinery and Rs 20 million in net working capital. The entire
outlay would take place at the beginning of the project.
2. The project will be financed with Rs 45 million equity capital , Rs 5 million of
preference capital , and Rs 50 million of debt capital. Preference capital would
carry a dividend rate of 15 percent , debt capital will carry an interest rate of
15 percent.
3. The life of the project is 5 years . At the end of 5 years, fixed assets will fetch a
net salvage value of Rs 30 million where as the net working capital will be
liquidated at the book value .
4. The project is expected to increase the revenues of the firm by Rs 120 million
per year. The increase in costs on account of the project is expected to be Rs
80 million per year ( this includes all costs excepts depreciation , interest and
tax ) .
5. Plant and Machinery will be depreciated at the rate of 25 percent as per the
written down method . Here the depreciation charge will be :
a. First Year : Rs 20.0 million;
b. Second Year : Rs 15.00 million;
c. Third year : Rs 11.25 million ;
d. Fourth Year : Rs 8.44 million;
e. Fifth Year : Rs 6.33 million.
Calculate the project cash flow .

Problem 2 :
Ojus Enterprises is determining the cash flow for a project involving replacement of
an old machinery by a new machine. The old machine bought a few years ago has a
book value of Rs 4,00,000/- and it can be sold to realise a post tax salvage value of Rs
160,000/- . It is being depreciated annually at a rate 25 percent under the written
down value method. The working capital required for the old machine is Rs
4,00,000.
The new machine costs Rs 1,600,000 . It is expected to fetch a net salvage value of Rs
8,00,000 after 5 years when it will no longer be required. The depreciation rate
applicable to it is 25 percent under the written down value method. The net working
capital required for the new machine is Rs 500,000. The new machine is expected to
bring a saving of Rs 3,00,000 annually in manufacturing costs ( other than
depreciation ). The tax rate applicable to the firm is 40 percent.

Problem 3 : M Loup Garou will be paid 1,00,000 euros one year hence. This is a
nominal flow which he discounts at 8 percent nominal discount rate :
PV = 100000/1.08 = 92,593
The inflation rate is 4 percent. Calculate the PV of M Garou’s payment using the
equivalent real cash flow and real discount rate .
Solution : Real cash flow = 100000/1.04= 96,154;
Real discount rate= (1.08/1.04) -1 = 0.0385
PV = 96,154/1.0385 = 92,589 euro.
44
Project of unequal life :
In many cases we have to evaluate projects of unequal life . In such case if we
calculate the NPV it would not give you a correct picture . In such case the
Equivalent Annual Method is applied. Under this method first we calculate the NPV
of the project and then convert that into annual revenue with the help of present
value of an annuity of the corresponding period. The project which is of higher
annual revenue / minimum annual cost would be selected .
Problem 4 : Machine C was purchased 5 years ago for $ 2,00,000 and produces an
annual cash flow of $ 80,000 . It has no salvage value but is expected to last for
another 5 years. The company can replace machine C with machine B in the previous
example either now or at the end of five years. Which it should do ?
Solution : You can replace it only at the end of 5 years since then it would be
producing cash flow $ 80,000 more than the $ 72,380.
Uncertainty Capturing of Capital Budgeting :
In all the above case , we have calculated one NPV. This is the base case NPV.
However it does not take into the account the uncertainty associated with any real
life project. So we have to build on the uncertainty associated with the project. While
calculating the uncertainty ,we segregate the problem into two categories :
Category I : In this type of project , the project completion does not have much of
uncertainty . For example , setting up a steel plant when the land has already
acquired. For this category of project, we can capture uncertainty by using :

– Suppose you are investing in a project for manufacturing of scooters
for which investment of Rs 15 billion is required ;
– The cash flow in each year is calculated and it shows that each year
there is a cash inflow Rs 3 billion.
– Now the life of the project is 10 years.
– The NPV at 10% discount rate comes to Rs 3.43 billion.
• Now we identify the uncertainty variables :
– Revenue side the uncertainty is :
• Market Size
• New Product’s share in the market ;
• Unit Price ;
– Cost side the uncertainty is :
• Unit variable cost ;
• Fixed Cost ;
• Now we shall recalculate the NPV in the following situation of this
uncertainties :

48
Now we know that the following factors are important which can
change the NPV most :
– Market Share ;
– Unit Price;
– Variable Cost;
• Now we can do simulation run for this three variables in each year to
find out the NPV under different simulation run.
Variable Pessimistic Expected OptimisticMarket

Unit Price -4.2 3.43 5Unit

Fixed Cost 0.4 3.43 6.5
NPV

• From this we get the probability distribution of NPV in each year and
then we try to see our most likely NPV versus best and worst case
NPV.
• If our most likely NPV is favourable then we shall go for the project
otherwise not.
Decision Tree :
In the case of both sensitivity analysis and Monte Carlo simulation we
assume that the project would be in operation through out the period once
we start it. The option of abandonment or expansion is not calculated in this
assessment.
For this we have to resort to first decision tree analysis and then real option
on project finance. Decision tree is capturing the present value of the project
by taking into account the scope for abandonment and expansion in
subsequent years.
We calculate from right most side of the decisions tree and proceed towards
the left and calculate the present NPV.

• Using the DTA , you can also gain further insight by considering the
best, worst and most likely case scenarios for the above two examples.
Best case represents the scenario where only the best outcomes are
experienced and worst case represents the scenario where only the
worst outcomes. For the above example , the best case is where the
product development and commercialization efforts are successful ,
while the worst case involves successful development followed by
commercial failure.
• The most likely case is represented by the project’s expected NPV
today , which corresponds to decision node 1 in the decision tree or
time = 0. The best case NPV is Rs 9.58 million, the worst case NPV is –
Rs2.82 million and the most likely case NPV is Rs 2.43 million.
• If the most likely case is close to the best case , there is an excellent
chance of success and vice versa.
Real Option Analysis :
DCF and DTA are standard tools used by analysts and other professionals
in project valuation and they serve the purpose very well in many
applications. In case of uncertainty and involvement of contingent decision ,
these tools may not give a correct picture. These can be captured with the
help of Real Option analysis.
Let us start with an example to illustrate how the real options approach is
different .
– Suppose you have a chance to invest Rs 100 in a project. The
pay off is expected to be between Rs 60 and Rs 160 with an
average of Rs 110. The DCF analysis which does not account for
the uncertainty will put the NPV at Rs 10.
– Let us assume that this return does not meet your corporate
standard : therefore your decision will be not to invest in the
52
project. But what if an initial small investment ( say Rs 10) will
help settle the uncertainty and give you an option to fully invest
in the project at a later date only if the return is favourable .
You will buy this idea.
• You have a chance to invest Rs 100 in a project today that is
estimated to yield a return of Rs 125 one year from now with a 50-50
chance that it may go up to Rs 170 ( good case) or down to Rs 80 ( bad
case) . But you also have the choice to defer the decision for a year ,
by which time the uncertainty about the payout is expected to clear.
As given below, using the standard DCF method with a discount rate
of 15% , the project value today ,, represented by its NPV , is Rs 9.
Assuming that this return is acceptable , you may want to invest in it
.
Time T= 0 T=1 Cash Flow -Rs 100 Rs 125
Discount Rate 15% p.a.
NPV =[ Rs 125 /( 1+0.15) 1]-Rs 100= Rs 9
• As mentioned, there is also a mutually exclusive alternative of
deferring the decision until one year from now, by which time the
uncertainty of the cash flows is expected to clear.
• Let’s evaluate the value of the project at that time for the good and
bad cases (each with a probability of 0.5), assuming the same
conditions, so you can decide whether it will be to your advantage to
wait for a year.
Time T=0 T=1 T=2 Amount Rs 170 Probability 0.5 Amount Rs 80 Probability 0.5 Discount Rate =15% p.a.
53
NPV = 0.5 [ - {Rs 100/(1+0.15)1 }+{170/(1+0.15)2}= Rs 21;
The expected NPV for the bad case is : = .5 [ - {Rs 100/(1+0.15)1
}+{80/(1+0.15)2}= -Rs 13 .The decision to defer one year is worth Rs 21
today. However the decision to invest now is only Rs 9 NPV today with
DCF.
Therefore the value added because of the option to defer is Rs 12.
If the uncertainty goes up by having the value of Rs 200 and Rs 50 the
value of the option goes up to Rs 23.
• DCF is a deterministic model , ROA accounts for change in the
underlying asset value due to uncertainty over the life of the project.
• In the above example we have calculated only the two uncertainties
but we can capture a whole lot of uncertainty and can calculate the
composite value of the project.
• DCF accounts for the downside of the project by using a Risk Adjusted
Discount Rate . ROA on the other hand , captures the value of the
project for its upside potential by accounting for proper managerial
decisions that would presumably be taken to limit the downside risk.
Comparison between DTA and ROA :
• Both DTA and ROA are applicable when there is uncertainty about
project outcomes and opportunity for contingent decision exists. There
are two basic differences between them :
– DTA accounted for both Private and Market Risk where as ROA
only accounts for Market Risk;
DTA accounts for limited number of outcomes but ROA accounts for a
larger number of outcomes.

Short Answer Question :

Question No 1 As a result in improvement in product engineering , United
Automation is able to sell one of its two milling machines. Both machines perform
the same function but differ in age. The newer machine could be sold today for $
50,000 . Its operating cost are $ 20,000 a year but in Five years the machine will
require $20,000 overhaul. Thereafter operating costs will be $30,000 until the
machine is finally sold in year 10 for $ 5000.
The older machine could be sold today for $25,000 . If it is kept , it will need an
immediate $20,000 overhaul . Thereafter operating costs will be $30,000 a year until
the machine is finally sold in year 5 for $5000.
Both machines are fully depreciated for tax purposes. The company pays tax at 35% .
Cash flows have been forecasted in real terms . The real cost of capital is 12 percent .
Which machine should United Automation sell ?
Solution :
In order to solve this problem, we calculate the equivalent annual cost for each of the two alternatives. (All cash flows are in thousands.)
Alternative 1 – Sell the new machine: If we sell the new machine, we receive the cash flow from the sale, pay taxes on the gain, and pay the costs associated with keeping the old machine. The present value of this alternative is:

The equivalent annual cost for the five-year period is computed as follows: PV1 = EAC1 × [annuity factor, 5 time periods, 12%]
-93.80 = EAC1 × [3.605]
EAC1 = -26.02, or an equivalent annual cost of $26,020
57
Alternative 2 – Sell the old machine: If we sell the old machine, we receive the cash flow from the sale, pay taxes on the gain, and pay the costs associated with keeping the new machine. The present value of this alternative is:

The equivalent annual cost for the ten-year period is computed as follows: PV2 = EAC2 × [annuity factor, 10 time periods, 12%]
-127.51 = EAC2 × [5.650]
EAC2 = -22.57, or an equivalent annual cost of $22,570
Thus, the least expensive alternative is to sell the old machine because this alternative has the lowest equivalent annual cost.
One key assumption underlying this result is that, whenever the machines
have to be replaced, the replacement will be a machine that is as efficient to operate as the new machine being replaced.

Question No 3 : “A banker should calculate only the DSCR of the project ,
as banker is interested only on the repayment of debt “- Do you support this
view ?
Answers : It is true that banker would be concerned about the repayment of
debt. But the project would be run by the promoter. Under such situation ,
if the banker is not convinced that the project is generating return to the
promoter also , then we have to analyse the interest of the promoter to run
the business. So banker should not only to check the bankability of the
project which can be found out by calculating the DSCR but also the
financial viability of the project which can be calculated by the IRR > WACC
or NPV>0 criteria .
Question No 4 : If the IRR of the project is 15% p.a. and the Weighted
Average Cost of Capital is 16% p.a. find out the NPV of the project .
Answer : The NPV of the project is less than zero . This is due to the fact
that NPV , by definition , is the extra amount in rupees generated from the
project after meeting the lenders expectation. In the present case , the
lenders expectation is 16% p.a. which is represented by WACC. The
business is generated a return of 15% p.a. So the business is not generating
the expectation of lender itself. Accordingly , the NPV of the business is less
than 0 .
Question No 5 : Compare sensitivity analysis with simulation method of
capturing uncertainty of a project .
In the case of sensitivity analysis only one variable is changed whereas the
other variables are kept constant . For example, we want to find out what
would be impact of DSCR in case sales price goes down by 5% keeping other
things remaining constant. In the case of Simulation , all the factors are
changed simultaneously. For example, what would be the impact of DSCR in
a situation when the sales would go down by 5%, raw material cost would go
60
up 5% and interest cost would go up by 1% . So simulation is better method
of capturing uncertainty . However, the sensitivity analysis is carried out to
identify the critical variables and from critical variables the simulation is
run.
