B B I Paste 3 U V 9 D58 XV fox B D E F G H 7 Shrieves Hospital Ltd. is considering adding a new line to its diagnostic product mix, and the capital 8 budgeting analysis is being conducted by Sidney Johnson, a recently graduated MHA. A new bone density scanner would be set up in unused space in Shrieves's main clinic. The machinery's invoice price would be 10 approximately $200,000; another $10,000 in shipping charges would be required; and it would cost an 11 additional S30,000 to install the equipment. The machinery has an economic life of four years, and Shrieves 12 has obtained a special tax ruling which places the equipment in the MACRS three-year class. The machinery 13 is expected to have a salvage value of $25,000 after four years of use. The new line would generate 14 incremental sales of 1,250 scans per year for four years at an incremental cost of $100 per scan in the 15 first year, excluding depreciation. Each scan would generate revenue of $200 in the first year. The price 16 and cost of each scan are expected to increase by 3 percent per year due to inflation. Further, to handle 17 the new line, the hospital's net operating working capital would have to increase by an amount equal to 12 18 percent of sales revenues. The hospital's tax rate is 20 percent, and its corporate cost of capital is 10 19 percent. 20 21 2. Perform a sensitivity analysis on the corporate cost of capital, number of seans, and salvage value. Assume that each of these variables can vary from its base case by plus and minus 15 and 30 percent. 23 Include a sensitivity diagram. 24 b. Perform a scenario analysis using the worst-, most likely, and best-case probabilities in the table below: 25 26 Number of Price Scenario Probability seans 28 Best 25% 1,600 29 Most likely 50% 1,250 $200 30 Worst 25% 900 $160 31 32 c. Assume that Shrieves's average project has a coefficient of variation of NPV in the range of 0.2-0.4. 33 The hospital typically adds or subtracts 3 percentage points to its corporate cost of capital to adjust for 34 risk. Should the new line be accepted? 35 22 27 per scan $240 36 - 37 In the section entitled "Changes in Net Working Capital in Chapter 11, Gapenski states that expansion 38 projects require additional inventories and accounts receivable which must be financed, just as an increase 39 in fixed assets must be financed. In this situation, the hospital's net working capital would have to increase 40 by an amount equal to 12 percent of sales. Sales in Year 1 are estimated at $250,000, so Shrieves must 41 have (.12 $250,000 ) 30,000 in net working capital at Year 0. If sales increase to S257,500 in Year 2, 42 Shrieves must have ( 12 * $257,500 -) 30,900 at Year 1. Because it already has $30,000 of net working 43 capital on hand, its net investment in working capital at Year 1 is just ($30,900 - $30,000) 5900. If sales 44 Increase to $265,225 in Year 3. Its net investment in working capital in Year 2 is (:12 265,225 ) 45 $31, 827-530,900 = 5927. If sales increase to $273.182 in Year 4, its net investment in working capital 46 In Year 3 is (.12 * 273,182) 532,782 - $31,827 5955. Shrleves will have no sales after Year 4, so it will 47 require no working capital at Year 4. Thus, it would have a positive cash flow of 32,782 at Year 4 as 48 working capital is sold but not replaced. 49 Paste B I U Inl D58 x fx V B D E F G H .
