This will focus on analyzing and evaluating a time value of money capital budgeting scenario.
Describe, and explain how the following computations pertain to the company’s profitability, and how the required rate of return (discount rate)and these computations impact the projector projects’ approval:
5. Break-Even Time (BET)
5. Break-Even Time (BET)
Break even time is the time period taken by the cash flows to recover the initial investment of the project. The lower the break even time it is good for the firm since the initial investment will be recovered faster. At Break-even time the initial investment is equal to the cash flows generated by the project. The cash flows considered in break-even time can be discounted or non discounted cash flows. Discounted cash flows are usually preferred since it considers time value of money. The cash flows are discounted to present value based on the cost of capital of the firm. The higher the discounting rate the lower is the present value of cash flows generated by the project.
Lower break even time indicates the projects are having less risk and can be implemented if their net present value if positive. A firm should try to increase the cash flows of new project to ensure the capital budgeting is effective and it adds value to the firm.

describe, and explain how the following computations pertain to the company’s profitability, and how the required rate of return (discount rate)and these computations impact the projector projects’ approval: 9. Break-Even Time (BET): Summer 2020 The Wilson Company has an opportunity to invest in one of two new projects. They are mutually exclusive. Project A requires a $300,000 investment for the new machinery with a 5-year life and no salvage value. Project B requires a $45,000 investment with a $5,000 salvage...
7. The capital budgeting process begins by ________. A) analyzing alternate projects B) evaluating the net present value (NPV) of each project's cash flows C) compiling a list of potential projects D) forecasting the future consequences for the firm of each potential project
Which capital budgeting metric does not account for time value of money? Group of answer choices Internal rate of return (IRR). Net present value (NPV). Profitability Index. Payback period. All of these incorporate time value of money in their calculation. PreviousNext
Time Value of Money What is the time value of money and why is it important? Describe the net present value (NPV) and internal rate of return (IRR) methodologies and their use in capital budgeting decisions. What is NPV when the discount rate (hurdle rate) equals IRR? Project Management
1. If a manager were concerned with the time value of money, from which two capital budgeting methods should the manager choose? Multiple Choice IRR or Payback. BET or IRR. BET or Payback. NPV or ARR. NPV or Payback. 2. Restating future cash flows in terms of present values and then determing the payback period using these present values is known as: Multiple Choice Break-even time (BET) Internal rate of return method. Accounting rate of return method. Net present value...
Capital Budgeting Example - NPV, IRR.You are analyzing the following two mutually exclusive projects, where Project A is a 4-year project and Project B is a 3-year project: Project A Project B -$1,000 -$ 800 1 350 350 2 400 400 3 400 400 4 400 ----- Assuming a discount rate of 15%, calculate the net present values and internal rates of return for projects A and B.
1. Explain and discuss the importance of time value of money when evaluating different investments or capital expenditures. 2. What are the components of "Required Rate of Return" and why is it an important calculation?
choose the correct answer A-Capital Budgeting B-Cost of Capital C-Goal incongruence D-Net present value E-Gain on disposal (sale) F-Book value G-Payback method H-Loss on disposal (sale) Choose The rate of return used by a company to determine whether or not the expected return on a potential long-term A method of evaluating investments that uses TVM to assess whether the investment's expected rate of return is The cost of a long-term asset that has not yet been depreciated; it is not...
4. Net present value method Underwood Corp. is evaluating a proposed capital budgeting project that will require an initial investment of $168,000. The project is expected to generate the following net cash flows: Year AW N< 2 Cash Flow $44,800 $51,700 $48,600 $47,900 Assume the desired rate of return on a project of this type is 11%. The net present value of this project is -25,096.03 r projects. Should Underwood Suppose Underwood Corp. has enough capital to fund the project,...
