Learning Objective 2
Understand the six stages of
capital budgeting for a project.
21 - 6
Capital BudgetingCapital Budgeting
Capital budgeting is the making of long-runplanning decisions for investments in
projects and programs.
It is a decision-making and control tool thatfocuses primarily on projects or programs
that span multiple years.
21 - 7
Capital BudgetingCapital Budgeting
Capital budgeting is a six-stage process:
1. Identification stage 2. Search stage
3. Information-acquisition stage
4. Selection stage 5. Financing stage
6. Implementation and control stage
21 - 8
Capital Budgeting ExampleCapital Budgeting Example
One of the goals of Assisted Living is to improvethe diagnostic capabilities of its facility.
Management identifies a need to consider thepurchase of new equipment.
The search stage yields several alternativemodels, but management focuses on
one particular machine.
21 - 9
Capital Budgeting ExampleCapital Budgeting Example
The administration acquires information.
Initial investment is $245,000.
Investment in working capital is $5,000.
Useful life is three years.
Estimated residual value is zero.
Net cash savings is $125,000, $130,000, and $110,000 over its life.
21 - 10
Capital Budgeting ExampleCapital Budgeting Example
Working capital is expected to be recovered atthe end of year 3 with an expected return of 10%.
In the selection stage, management must decidewhether to purchase the new machine.
Operating cash flows are assumed to occurat the end of the year.

Learning Objective 3
Use and evaluate the two main
discounted cash-flow (DCF)
methods: the net present value
(NPV) method and the internal
rate-of-return (IRR) method.

Investment= Expected annual net cash inflow
× PV annuity factor
Investment÷ Expected annual net cash inflow
= PV annuity factor

Internal Rate of Return ExampleInternal Rate of Return Example
Initial investment is $303,280.Useful life is five years.
Net cash inflows is $80,000 per year.
What is the IRR of this project?
$303,280 ÷ $80,000 = 3.791 (PV annuity factor)
10% (from the table, five-period line)
21 - 21
Comparison of NPV and IRRComparison of NPV and IRR
The NPV method has the advantage that the endresult of the computations is expressed in
dollars and not in a percentage.
Individual projects can be added.
It can be used in situations where the requiredrate of return varies over the life of the project.
21 - 22
Comparison of NPV and IRRComparison of NPV and IRR
The IRR of individual projects cannot beadded or averaged to derive the IRR
of a combination of projects.

Learning Objective 4
Use and evaluate the
payback method.
21 - 24
Payback MethodPayback Method
Payback measures the time it will take torecoup, in the form of expected future cash
flows, the initial investment in a project.
21 - 25
Payback Method ExamplePayback Method Example
Assisted Living is considering buying Machine 1.
Initial investment is $210,000.
Useful life is eleven years.
Estimated residual value is zero.
Net cash inflows is $35,000 per year.
21 - 26
Payback Method ExamplePayback Method Example
How long would it take to recover the investment?
$210,000 ÷ $35,000 = 6 years
Six years is the payback period.
21 - 27
Payback Method ExamplePayback Method Example
Suppose that as an alternative to the $210,000piece of equipment, there is another one
(Machine 2) that also costs $210,000 but willsave $42,000 per year during its five-year life.
What is the payback period?
$210,000 ÷ $42,000 = 5 years
Which piece of equipment is preferable?

Accrual AccountingRate-of-Return Method Example
Straight-line depreciation is $60,656 per year.
Average operating income is$80,000 – $60,656 = $19,344.
What is the AARR?
AARR= ($80,000 – $60,656) ÷ $303,280
= .638, or 6.4%

Learning Objective 6
Identify and reduce conflicts
from using DCF for capital
budgeting decisions and
accrual accounting for
performance evaluation.
21 - 36
Performance EvaluationPerformance Evaluation
A manager who uses DCF methods to make capitalbudgeting decisions can face goal congruence
problems if AARR is used forperformance evaluation.
Suppose top management uses the AARR tojudge performance if the minimum desired
rate of return is 10%.
A machine with an AARR of 6.4% will be rejected.
21 - 37
Performance EvaluationPerformance Evaluation
The conflict between using AARR andDCF methods to evaluate performancecan be reduced by evaluating managers
on a project-by-project basis.

Postinvestment AuditPostinvestment Audit
A postinvestment audit compares the actualresults for a project to the costs and benefitsexpected at the time the project was selected.
It provides management with feedbackabout performance.

Strategic ConsiderationsStrategic Considerations
Capital investment decisionsthat are strategic in nature
require managers to considera broad range of factors thatmay be difficult to estimate.
