(more practice with capital budgeting)
• SG Company currently uses a packaging machine that was purchased 3 years ago. This machine is being depreciated on a straight line basis toward a $400 salvage value, and it has 5 years of remaining life. Its current book value is $2500 and it can be sold for $3500 at this time.
• SG is offered a replacement machine which has a cost of $10,000, an estimated useful life of 5 years, and an estimated salvage value of $1000. This machine would also be depreciated on a straight line basis toward its salvage value. The replacement machine would permit an output expansion, so sales would rise by $1500 per year; even so, the new machine’s much greater efficiency would still cause before tax operating expenses to decline by $1800 per year. The machine would require that inventories be increased by $2000, but accounts payable would simultaneously increase by $750. No further change in working capital would be necessary over th4 e5 years. SG’s marginal tax rate is 40%, and its discount rate for this project is 12%. Should the company replace the old machine? (Assume that at the end of year 5 SG would recover all of its net working capital investment, and the new machines could be sold at book value at the end of its useful life).

Measuring historical returns
Total return = dividend income + capital gains% total return = Rt+1 = (Divt+1+ Pt+1- Pt)/Pt
Geometric mean returns (1+ R)T = (1+R1)(1+R2)…(1+Rt)…(1+RT)
RA = [(1.15)(1.00)(1.05)(1.20)](1/4)-1 .0972 = 9.72%RB = [(1.30)(0.80)(1.20)(1.50)](1/4)-1 .1697 = 16.97%
Arithmetic mean returns: R = (R1 + R2 + …+ RT)/TRA = [.15 + .00 + .05 + .20]/4 = .10 = 10%RB = [.30 + -.20 + .20 + .50]/4 = .20 = 20%

volatility is the standard deviation, which is the square root of the variance.

Calculating historical risk & return: example
• The variance, ² or Var(R) = .0954/(T-1) = .0954/3 = .0318
• The standard deviation, or SD(R) =.0318 = .1783 or 17.83%

Intuition of CAPM
Components of returns: Total return = Expected return + Unexpected return
R = E(R) + UThe unanticipated part of the return is the true risk of any investment.
The risk of any individual stock can be separated into two components.
1. Systematic or market risks (nondiversifiable).2. Unsystematic, unique, or asset-specific (diversifiable risks).
R = E(R) + U = E(R) + systematic portion + unsystematic portion
Measuring systematic risk: betaRm = proxy for the "market" return

and a beta of 1.50, announced that it was acquiring WordPerfect, which had a market value of equity of $1 billion, and a beta of 1.30. Neither firm had any debt in its financial structure at the time of the acquisition, and the corporate tax rate was 40%.
Estimate the beta for Novell after the acquisition, assuming that the entire acquisition was financed with equity.
Assume that Novell had to borrow the $1 billion to acquire WordPerfect. Estimate the beta after the acquisition.
Example: estimating betaSouthwestern Bell, a phone company, is considering
expanding its operations into the media business. The beta for the company at the end of 1995 was 0.90, and the debt/equity ratio was 1. The media business is expected to be 30% of the overall firm value in 1999, and the average beta of comparable media firms is 1.20; the average debt/equity ratio for these firms is 50%. The marginal corporate tax rate is 36%.
