1. Current earnings per share = ( Price of stock * Cost of equity ) - ( Opportunity of future investments * Cost of equity)
= (344*7.4% ) - (164*7.4%)
= 13 per share
Current earnings per share = 13 per share
2. The formula for calculating the equivalent annual cash flows is
C = [r ( NPV)] / [1 - (1+ r)^(-n)]
NPV for machine A = -100 + 110 /( 1+ 0.04)1 + 121/ ( 1+ 0.04)2 = 117.64
NPV for machine B = -120 + 110 /( 1+ 0.04)1 + 121/ ( 1+ 0.04)2 + 133 / ( 1+0.04)3 = 215.88
equivalent annual cash flows
For Machine-A:
C = [0.04* $117.64] / [1-(1+0.04)-2]
= $4.70 / 0.0754
= $62.3
For Machine-B:
C = [ 0.04 * $215.88] / [1 - (1 + 0.04)-3]
= $8.6352 / 0.111
= $77.79
By Companring the two projects, the Machine-B with 3yrs is yielding highest NPV and returning high amount of annuity cash flows relative to the other Machine-A. Hence, project-B should be selected.
So ans is a) A: 62.3 / B: 77.79 / choose B
