Therefore, both alternatives are feasible alternatives. This brings us to the next step. The cash flow profile for the incrementa
2、l analysis, along with the cash flow profile for each alternative, is reproduced below.Year0123456A030201814106B-2060406420B-A-203020-12-10-8-6 Solving for GROR, GROR=21% YearB-ASTEPS12340-20-20-20-20-2013030*1.220000220202020203-1231.231.2*1.20004-10-1027.4427.44*1.2005-8-8-824.9324.93*1.206-6-6-6-

4、t negative cash flows. If that happens, then the net negative cash flows in a given year should be treated as out of pocket expense and should be converted to the present value in the GROR analysis. Example 3.30 An investment in a producing property results in the following cash profile due to price
5、 fluctuations. If the MROR is 15%, calculate the GROR.Year0123 4 5 6 7Cash Flow(in thousands)-3015-201510108 6 SolutionWe have negative cash flows in year 0 and year 2. Before we consider the actual out of pocket expenses, we need to cover the negative cash flow in year 2 with the positive cash flow
6、 in year l. Investing $15,000 at a rate of 15% will result in, 15, 000(1+.15) = 17,250Adding the positive cash flow to -$20,000, the net cash flow in year 2, -20,000 + 17,250 = -2,750This negative cash flow cannot be covered from any previously generated revenues. Therefore, it is considered out-of-
7、pocket expenses. The new cash flow profile is presented below.Year01234567Cash Flow(in thousands)-300-2.7515101086 F= 15(1+.15)4+10(l+.15)3+10(l+.15)2+8(l+.15)1 + 6 =69.9Therefore, to calculate the GROR, F = P(l +GROR)n 69.9 = 32.l(l + GROR)7 GROR = 11.8% To summarize the GROR method, it is a modifi
8、cation of the rate of return method. It requires an additional knowledge of reinvestment rate. However, if such information is known, the method eliminates the need of trial and error procedure as required for the ROR method. Further, by using the GROR method, we eliminate the possibility of multipl
9、e rates of return. 3.6 Profit to Investment Ratio Profit to investment ratio (PIR) is the ratio of the NPV at MROR to the present value of out of pocket investment. We can write it as, This number is an indication of the efficiency of the investment. In other words, PIR is the amount of money earned
10、 per dollar invested. As in the case of GROR calculations, only if the subsequent investment is not covered by prior benefits, that investment is included in the present value of investments. Since the future benefits can only be received if we initiate the project, it is critical that we try to cov
11、er the subsequent costs by prior benefits before we cover them with out of pocket expenses. The out of pocket expense being an additional expense should be reflected in the denominator of Eq.3. 14. For a project to be feasible, the PIR has to be greater than zero. The following examples illustrate t
12、he application. Example 3.31 An oil company intends to buy a producing property for a price of $l million. It is expected to generate $280,000 net income in the first year declining at 10% per year. The property will be held for at least 10 years with an expected salvage value of $200,000. If the MR
13、OR is 15%, should the property be b o u g h t ? U s e P I R a n a l y s i s . Example 3.32 The following cash flow profile is expected for an investment. If the MROR is 10%, check the feasibility of the project using PIR criterion.Period0123456Cash flow-10080-100200100503080(l+0.l) = 88 -100+88 = -1
14、2 Total out of pocket expenses are calculated as,Since this value is greater than 0, the project is feasible.Example 3.33 The following two alternatives are considered for a project. Based on the PIR analysis, select the best alternative. Assume the MROR to be 10%.(a)(b)Initial Investment$10,000$20,
15、000Annual Benefit$3,000$7,000Life, Years55Salvage Value$8,000$3,000 Although PIRa PIRb , we need not select (a) unless we carry out one additional calculation. Since projects (a) and (b) require different amounts of investment, we will have to calculate the PIR for incremental investment, Since PIR0
16、, an alternative with a higher investment should be selected; i.e., we should select (b) over (a). If PIR0, an alternative requiring a smaller investment would have been selected. a. Calculate the PIR for all the alternatives. If the PIR is positive, retain the alternative for future consideration;
17、otherwise reject it from additional consideration. b. Select the two alternatives requiring the smallest investments. Calculate the PIR. If PIR0, select the alternative requiring a bigger investment. Reject the remaining alternative from further consideration. c. Select the alternative requiring the
18、 next biggest investment and compare it with the retained alternative from the previous step. Calculate PIR. If PIR0, select the alternative requiring a bigger investment. d. Repeat step (c) until only one alternative remains. The following example illustrates the application. Example 3.34 The follo
19、wing three alternatives are considered for buying a workstation. Based on PIR analysis, select the appropriate alternative. Assume the MROR to be 10%.ABCInitial Cost$15,000$25,000$50,000Net Annual Benefit$6,000$9,000$16,000Life, Years777Salvage Value$4,000$4,000$8,000 A method similar to the PIR met
20、hod is often used in the literature to evaluate mutually exclusive alternatives. The method uses a ratio defined as,PIR = B/C - 1 Example 3.35 Information for two mutually exclusive alternatives is given as follows.ABInitial Cost$12,000$18,000Annual Benefit6,0007,500Life, Years77Salvage Value$1,000$1,300If the MROR is 10%, using B/C method, choose the correct alternative. Confirm the answer with PIR method.
