Capital Budgeting Techniques And Financial Analysis Finance Essay

Published: November 26, 2015 Words: 6244

This report focuses on the different capital budgeting techniques used in an organisation for investment appraisal and financial statement analysis using valuation and profitability ratios.

The first part of the report shows the capital budgeting techniques used by Brimoh Construction Limited for the appraisal of two projects. The techniques used in this report are the NPV, IRR, ARR and PBP. The advantages, disadvantages of each techniques and a comparison of all the techniques were also addressed in this report.

The second part of this report evaluates the performance of Toyota Motors Corporation and Honda Motors Corporation for the past four years, using relevant valuation and profitability ratios and comparing them with their industry average. The valuation ratios show that Toyota has more value than Honda, while the profitability ratios states otherwise. Some of the limitations to the use of financial ratios were also addressed by this report.

1.0 INTRODUCTION

The first part of this report deals with the different capital budgeting techniques used in investment appraisal. Capital budgeting is the process of identifying and selecting investments in long-term assets or assets expected to produce benefits over more than one year (Peterson and Fabozzi 2002). Due to the capital intensive nature of certain investments in an organisation, capital budgeting techniques are used to appraise the various projects an organisation wishes to invest on, in order to advise the management on the appropriate investment for the organisation. According to Cheng A, Kite D and Radtke R 1994, capital budgeting plays an essential role in a firms long-term viability and survival. Different types of capital budgeting techniques such as the net present value, internal rate of return, pay-back period and accounting rate of return where used in this report to appraise two mutually exclusive projects of Brimoh Construction Limited.

The second part of this report focuses on financial ratios and the analysis of financial statements and performance of two chosen organisations - Toyota Motor Corporation Limited and Honda Motor Corporation Limited from the car manufacturing industry. The financial statements for these organisations for the past four years were obtained from Marketwatch.com and various valuation and profitability ratios calculated. The results were compared with past records and the industry average to analyse the performance of both companies.

2.0 CAPITAL BUDGETING

Capital Budgeting is defined as planning and financing long term investment projects in an organisation (Skierkowski, 1981). Capital budgeting helps the organisation to decide whether or not an investment is worth taking. Capital budgeting is the technical component of an organization's strategic planning process (White 1997). Capital budgeting techniques is grouped into two methods; the discounted cash flow method and the non-discounted cash flow method. The discounted method such as the NPV and IRR makes use of the time value of money thereby discounting the cash flows to its present value while the non-discounted such as the ARR and PBP cash flow method does not take into account the time value of money. NPV and IRR are the two most popular discounted cash flow method used by organisation.

2.1 NET PRESENT VALUE

The NPV is the net difference between the present value of the investment's net cash inflows and its outflow (Horngren Harrison and Oliver 2011). NPV is the sum of the present value of all cash inflows from the project and initial outflow of the project. The idea behind the NPV is that the cash flows are being discounted at an agreed discount rate to its present value and net off from the initial cost of investment.

The decision rules for NPV are as follows:

Projects with a positive NPV should be accepted while projects with a negative NPV should be rejected.

For mutually exclusive projects; accept project with the highest NPV.

NPV could be calculated using the discount factor tables. The example below is used to illustrate the use of NPV for investment appraisal applying the discount factor table;

The management of Brimoh Construction Limited is faced with the task of choosing between two projects, to either acquire new machinery for its business or lease the machine. Both projects have the same initial cost of investment with five years useful life, the residual value for acquiring the machine at the end of the fifth year is £20,000, the leasing option has no residual value. The company makes use of a straight line method of depreciation and its cost of capital is 10%. The outflow and inflows for both projects is given below:

NPV for both projects is calculated in the table below at a discount rate of 10%.

The discount rate can be obtained from the present values table or by using the formula below;

Where r is the discount rate of 10% and

n is the number of years.

From the calculations above, both projects has a positive NPV of 117.425 for the acquisition of the machinery and 84.59 for the lease option. NPV decision rule in this situation states that the project with the highest NPV should be selected.

Based on this, the management of Brimoh Construction Limited is advised to acquire the machinery since the returns from the acquisition as shown by the NPV is greater than the returns from leasing the machinery. This shows that more returns will be generated over the initial cost of the investment.

Advantages of NPV:

It considers the time value of money by discounting the cash flows to their present value.

Makes use of all relevant cash flows.

It is simple for the management of the organisation to make a decision because a positive NPV means accept the project while a negative means rejection.

It is useful in comparing similar projects with the same cost.

Disadvantages of NPV:

People without a finance background find it difficult to calculate and understand the concept.

The cost of capital used is an assumption which is prone to change as the year progresses.

2.2 INTERNAL RATE OF RETURN

IRR of a particular investment is the discount rate that when applied to its future cash flows, will produce an NPV of precisely zero. In essence, it represents the yield from an investment (Atrill and McLaney 2008). It is the annual rate of return earned by the project on the capital employed (Fung and Stapleton 1980).

The IRR is computed by finding the discount rate that equates the present value of a project's cash outflows with the present value of its cash inflows (Garrison, Noreen and Brewer 2008). It is the rate of return that will give an NPV equals to zero.

The decision rules for NPV are as follows:

If IRR is greater than the company's cost of capital, then the project should be accepted.

For mutually exclusive projects, accept project with the highest IRR.

IRR can be calculated using the interpolation method, by applying the formula below.

L + NPVL (H - L)

NPVL -- NPVH

Where : NPVL is the NPV of the lower discount rate.

NPVH is the NPV of the higher discount rate.

L is the lower rate of return and

H is the higher rate of return.

To apply this formula to Brimoh Construction Limited, we assume a discount rate of 40% which will give us a negative NPV since at the rate of 10% the NPV of both projects are positive. The NPV at 40% discount rate is shown in the table below:

Applying the formula to both projects, the IRR for the acquisition of the machinery is 36.06% while for the lease option it is 35.53%. Both projects gave an IRR above the cost of capital of 10%, hence the management is advised to acquire the machinery since its rate of return is greater than the lease option.

Advantages of IRR:

Like the NPV, it considers the time value of money and makes use of all the relevant cash flows.

It shows if the investment will increase the value of the organisation.

Disadvantages of NPV:

It's complicated to calculate.

In some cases the IRR conflicts with the NPV.

It requires an estimate of the cost of capital.

2.3 ACCOUNTING RATE OF RETURN:

The ARR method takes the average of accounting operating profit that the investment will generate and expresses it as a percentage of the average investment made over the life of the project (McLaney and Atrill 2008). It is calculated by dividing the average annual profit from the investment by the average investment that produced the profit expressed as a percentage. The formula for ARR can be stated below;

ARR = Average annual operating profit x 100%

Average investment to earn that profit

The average annual profit is obtained after taking consideration of depreciation, while the average investment is calculated using the formula below:

Average investment = Cost of machine + Disposal value

2

The decision rule for ARR is to accept project with ARR above the minimum rate required by the business but where there is competing projects and all seems to be above the minimum rate, the project with the highest ARR is normally selected (McLaney and Atrill 2008).

Applying the formula above to calculate the ARR for Brimoh Construction Limited, the ARR for acquiring the project is 51% while the leasing option has an ARR of 40%. Hence the management of the organisation is therefore advised to consider the acquisition of the machinery since it offers a higher ARR which is above the company's cost of capital of 10%.

Advantages of ARR:

Easy to calculate as the formula is known.

Simple to understand and compare with target or other projects.

Disadvantages of ARR:

It ignores the time value of money.

It makes use of accounting information which can be distorted.

It doesn't take into consideration the concept of cash flow since it is based on accounting profit.

2.4 PAY BACK PERIOD

This method involves calculating the period of time likely to recoup the initial outlay on a project and then comparing this with the acceptable period (CIMA 2011). It is the length of time that is required for a stream of cash proceeds from an investment to recover the original cash outlay required by the investment (Dury 2004).

Decision rule for PBP:

For independent projects, the PBP is compared with the target of the organisation.

For mutually exclusive projects, the project with the shortest PBP is usually selected.

The PBP for Brimoh Construction Limited is calculated below;

Form the table above, it will take between 2 to 3years for the Brimoh construction limited to recover the cost of acquiring the machinery while it will take them only 2years to recover the cost of investment if the machinery is acquired on lease. Hence, applying the PBP rule, the management is advised to choose the lease option since it has the shortest PBP. But if the PBP for acquiring the machinery is within the target of the organisation, it would be a better option because it offers a higher return after the PBP, although the PBP does not take into account cash flows after the PBP.

Advantages of PBP:

It is easy to calculate and understand because people with non-financial background can do the calculation with ease.

It is a useful tool for short-term decision making.

Disadvantages of PBP:

It ignores the time value of money just like the ARR.

It disregards cash flows after the PBP thereby not taking into account the risk that might occur after the PBP.

3.0 COMPARISONS OF THE DIFFERENT TECHNIQUES

The different capital budgeting techniques discussed above are grouped into two main groups; the non-discounting method and the discounted method. The PBP and the ARR are grouped under the non-discounted method because they both ignore the time value of money which is considered as their major pitfall. The concept of time value of money is essential and should be considered when making investment decisions because the value of £1000 pounds today will not be the same in future.

NPV and IRR are the two major discounted method mostly used by organisations. This is because both techniques take cognisance of the time value of money, thereby discounting the cash flows to its present value. This is considered as an appropriate way of investment appraisal.

3.1 NPV AND IRR COMPARED

Gitman and Forrester (1977), in their survey of 103 large firms, find that only 9.8% of firms use net present value as their primary method and 53.6% report IRR as primary method. This was also supported by Stanley and Block (1984) in their survey which shows that 65% of respondents report IRR as their primary capital budgeting technique. This shows that organisations prefer to use the IRR as a method of investment appraisal.

According to Cheng, Kite and Radtke (1994), both methods are theoretically sound because each measures a different aspect of capital projects profitability. NPV measures the change in the net worth of the firm due to the project while IRR measures the periodic rate of return for the projects required capital investment. The main problem with the use of IRR as noted by Graham and Harvey (2002) in his survey is that in some cases, managers intent on maximizing IRR may actually reduce value by rejecting positive NPV projects. NPV can be a better technique for investment appraisal when compared with the IRR because;

IRR may not work properly for projects with unconventional cash flow.

In the case of mutually exclusive projects, IRR might give a conflicting decision.

IRR is not consistent with the shareholder wealth maximization of an organisation and does not consider the scale of the investment.

4.0 FINANCIAL ANALYSIS - TOYOTA AND HONDA MOTOR CORPORATION

Financial ratios are used in analysing a firm's financial position and the efficiency of its assets and liabilities management (Altman 1968, Beaver 1968). The cornerstone of financial statement analysis is the use of ratios (Horngren et al 2006).

4.1 VALUATION RATIOS

Table 5: Valuation Ratios

Price Earnings Ratio: The PE ratio shows the amount investors are prepared to pay per dollar of stated profits (Brigham and Houston 2012). According to Riahi-Belkaoui and Picur (2001), survey and empirical evidence suggests that the dominant valuation model used by analyst is the PE ratio. Form the table above the PE ratio of Toyota motors dropped to negative in 2009, this could have been caused by the negative EPS because the company recorded a loss same year, however the ratio increased in 2010. The current PE ratio of the company is high when compared to the industry average which shows that its equity is gaining more value. PE ratios depend on the price of the company's share and could be affected by the differences in capital structure (Rankine and Howson, 2006).

For Honda motors, the PE ratio increased in 2009 which has the highest ration which could have been caused by its high net income for that year. But the ratio started decreasing from 2009 which might have been caused by the decreasing net income and EPS. The PE ratio for the company when compared with the industry average is low showing that the value of the company's equity is decreasing. For both company, Toyota stands at a better ground because its PE ratio is above the industry average.

Market to Book Ratio: This ratio is used to show the value of a company by comparing its market value to the book value of its equity. It measures the value of a company in the financial market (Weaver and Weston, 2004). From the valuation table, the market to book ratio for Toyota increased in 2009 because of an increase in the market price of its shares, however this trend started decreasing in 2010 as the share price decreases, although the current ratio is still above the industry average. Honda motors experienced an increase in its ratio in 2009 and 2010 as the share price increases, but decreased in 2011 below the industry average. This decrease might have been caused by a decrease in its share price in 2011.

For this ratio, Toyota stands at a better chance for investors as they will perceive its stock as having more value than that of Honda motors.

Enterprise Value to EBITDA: This ratio which shows the value of a company is calculated by dividing the enterprise value by the earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization. From the table above, we can see that this ratio for Toyota motors has been fluctuating with a sharp increase in 2009 and decreased in 2010 and 2011 respectively. This shows that the company generates a high EBITDA. The same thing could be seen in the case of Honda motors with an increase in 2009 from 2.10 to 10.53 and decreasing in 2010 and 2011 respectively.

Comparing the two company shows that Toyota with a higher ratio could be seen as having value more than Honda motors.

Note: The industry average for this ratio was not found making it difficult to compare the ratio of both companies with their industry.

4.2 PROFITABILTY RATIOS

This ratio measures whether the company is performing satisfactorily, the performance of management, identify if a company may be a worthwhile investment opportunity and determine a company's performance relative to its competitors (Wood and Sangster 2008).

Table 6: Profitability Ratios

Operating Margin: This ratio relates the operating profit for the period to the sales revenue during that period (Atrill and McLaney 2008). From the table above, the OM ratio for Toyota motors decreased to negative in 2009, this could have been caused by the increase in unusual expenses for 11.35 billion in 2008 to 220.92 billion in 2009; this led to the net loss recorded by the company for that year.

Both companies have an operating margin ratio below the industry average which suggests that the companies have a high operating expense. Although the ratio for Honda motors is better than that of Toyota, showing that Honda motors operating cost is lower than that of Toyota.

Net Profit Margin: This ratio shows the profitability of the company for a particular period. It is calculated by dividing the net income of the company with the sales revenue for the period. The NPM ratio for Toyota motors has been decreasing between 2008 and 2009, with a negative ratio in 2009 caused by the net loss recorded in the organisation. There was a sharp increase in the unusual expense of the company in 2009 which could have led to the net loss. This net loss recorded in 2009 affected the NPM ratio of 2010 with a slight increase in 2011 caused by an increase in the net income of the company. Honda motors NPM ratio decreased in 2009, this could have been caused by an unusual expenses incurred that year, which reduced the net income of the company. However this ratio increased in 2010 and 2011 as the net income of the company increases. Both companies are not performing well when compared with the industry average, although Honda seems to be performing better than Toyota.

Return on Equity (ROE): This ratio measures the return earned by management on the stockholders investment - owner's equity (Williams et al 2002). This ratio is calculated by dividing the net income of the company by the book value of the equity. ROE for Toyota motors was quite high in 2008 because of a high net income and book value of equity, this trend dropped to negative in 2009 due to the loss recorded that year and a decrease in the book value of equity. Honda motors have a high ROE in 2009 because of its high net income. However, it dropped in 2009 which could have been caused by the decrease in net income and the book value of the company. An increase in the net income and the book value of the company increased the ROE in 2010 and 2011 respectively. The current ROE for both companies is below the industry average although Honda is performing better than Toyota as regards the return earned on shareholder's investment.

4.3 LIMITATIONS OF FINANCIAL RATIOS

Atrill and McLaney (2008), has identified the following limitations to the use of financial ratio;

Quality of financial statements: ratio analysis is based on financial statement and is likely to inherit the limitations of the financial statement.

Inflation: financial statements on which ratio analysis is based can be distorted by the effects of inflation and this will affect the reliability of the ratio.

Basis of comparison: ratios are always compared with the ratios of other companies in the same industry. This basis of comparison may not be relied upon as any difference in accounting policy between the two companies being compared can affect the ratios.

Balance sheet ratio: ratios based on balance sheet figures such as the liquidity ratio may not show the true representative of the financial position of the company because the balance sheet shows the summary of the business at a particular time.

5.0 CONCLUSION

This report has addressed different capital budgeting techniques used for investment appraisal in an organisation. It has also analysed the financial statements of Toyota Motors Limited and Honda Motors Limited using the valuation and profitability ratios.

The capital budgeting techniques were used to advise the management of Brimoh Construction Limited on the choice of project for investment. The NPV, IRR and ARR techniques suggest that the management of the organisation should acquire the machinery instead of leasing it, but the PBP suggests that the lease option should be considered by the firm, because it will take them less time to recover the initial investment.

The second part analysed the financial statement of Toyota and Honda motors. Toyota has a high valuation ratio when compared to Honda; however Honda's profitability ratios are higher than Toyota. Some of the limitations associated with the use of ratio were also identified.

APPENDIX 1

CALCULATION OF IRR

To calculate the IRR applying the formular L + NPVL (H - L)

NPVL -- NPVH

Acquiring the machinery:

IRR = 10 + 117.425 (40 - 30) = 36.06%

117.425 + 17.73

Leasing the machinery:

IRR = 10 + 117.425 (40 - 30) = 36.06%

117.425 + 17.73

CALCULATION OF ARR

To calculate the ARR for acquiring the machinery, since the company depreciates its assets on a straight basis, the depreciation will be calculated to obtain the operating profit after depreciation

Average annual operating profit before depreciation:

Acquiring the machinery = 50,000+60,000+70,000+80,000+85,000 = 69,000 5

Leasing the machinery = 80,000+70,000+60,000+50,000+40,000 = 60,000 5

Average annual operating profit after depreciation:

Using the straight line method, depreciation is calculated as follows;

Depreciation = Cost of machine - Disposal value

5

Acquiring the machinery = 150,000 - 20,000 = 26,000

5

Leasing the machinery = 150,000 - 0,000 = 30,000

5

Therefore the average annual operating profit after depreciation is calculated as follows;

Acquiring the machinery = £69,000 - £26,000 = £43,000.

Leasing the machinery = £60,000 - £30,000 = £30,000.

Average investment:

Cost of machine + Disposal value

2

Acquiring the machinery = £150,000 + £20,000 = £85,000

2

Leasing the machinery = £150,000 + £0,000 = £75,000

2

Therefor the ARR will be calculated as follows;

Acquiring the machinery = £43,000 x 100% = 51%

£85,000

Leasing the machinery = £30,000 x 100% = 40%

£75,000
