Royal Industries is considering to buy a moulding machine. The machine (having capital cost of Rs 20 lakh) is expected to have 4 years economic useful life with no salvage value; the company follows the straight line method of depreciation and the same is accepted for tax purposes. The expected CFAT (with corporate tax rate of 35 per cent) during its 4 years economic useful life are as follows:
\, Inflation is expected to be 8 per cent per year and the machine’s cost of capital in real terms would be 10 per cent. Compute the NPV of purchasing this machine.
4 | 3 | 2 | Year 1 |
Rs 4 lakh | Rs 7 lakh | Rs 10 lakh | CFAT Rs 8 lakh |
Since the cost of capital is stated in real terms, nominal CFAT need to be converted into real terms by deflating at inflation rate of 8 per cent. Relevant computations related to NPV are shown in Table.
Alternatively, nominal CFAT provided in the question can be discounted by nominal cost of capital (n).
We know (1 + n) = (1 + r) (1 + i)
\, n = r + i + ri
\, = 0.10 + 0.08 + .008 = 0.188
\, = 18.8 %
\, (a) Based on interpolation as per Table A-3.
\, (b) Difference in net present value computed by two methods (Rs 50,800
\, and Rs 49,677) is due to approximation.
\, In effect, both the methods yield identical results, both in terms of acceptance/rejection decision and in terms of net present value.
