Yes, I used 7% for part B in Q1. I also didn’t inflate it so used up straight values from cash flows. and I think I hate 477 something like that as NPV.
December 6, 2013 at 5:17 pm #151162i think i get 11.43% (if im not mistaken) for the WACC, you should use 12% cost of equity instead of 13% you calculated in the require a). the mv value of the equity is 8m x 7.16, and mv of bonds is 5000/100×103.42 . the discount rate to calculate the irr should be 6% and 5%. the bonds will give interest of 8.5% which after tax is 8.5%(1-0.3).
for question 3, i got something like 5002 if using EOQ. and 5454 using the current ordering cost
December 6, 2013 at 5:17 pm #1511638%??? I didn’t get that!
Hmmm…
what was your WACC?
December 6, 2013 at 5:20 pm #151164the market research cost is a cost that has already incrred, therefore it is a sunkcost hence, does not included in the NPV calculation
December 6, 2013 at 5:20 pm #151165@ nizarsalleh I got the same 😀 I got 5002 and 5454 and did the difference for part iii). YES! lol
Part b) of Q3 I multiplied the price with 60/365 and then 30/365 and took the difference and multiplied with cost.
I think I was left with 1830.44 something….. Not sure if it’s right?
And yes wacc o used 12%. wooohooo cos I thought I did wrong.
December 6, 2013 at 5:21 pm #151166I think the trick is when you calculate the real rate of return.
December 6, 2013 at 5:22 pm #151168Well I messed that in Q1 :(. But where did you all put 2000,000? I put that in year 1 🙁
Still would get marks tho? right? dammm :(:(
December 6, 2013 at 5:23 pm #151169My WACC was 11.43 too so I think it should be ok. As for EOQ, no one averaged the holding costs for the part a?? I did like [(300,000/12)* 140%] / 2 to get 17500 units per month. Was that right?
December 6, 2013 at 5:24 pm #151170The investment should go in year 0. But I would think that only one mark would be lost per mistake.
December 6, 2013 at 5:25 pm #151171For holding cost I did 25000/2 + 10,000(this is buffer as it said 40%) multiplied the whole thing by 0.10.
December 6, 2013 at 5:26 pm #151172I did the same clevergirl
December 6, 2013 at 5:27 pm #151173holding cost should be 25000/2 x 0.1 plus 40% of demand x 0.1 for part a

can any I tell what trearment was there for 200000 cost?????
December 6, 2013 at 5:28 pm #151175In question 1, did you all reclaim the working capital? If so, did you add it as a cashflow into year 4 or 5?
I put 4, but I’ve been questioning it since… seems strange because there is then a working capital outflow and inflow in the same year.
December 6, 2013 at 5:28 pm #151177what about the buffer @ nizarsalleh??
Yay ” neilsolaris
December 6, 2013 at 5:28 pm #151178Was that in question 1 gemini? The treatment was to ignore it, as it was a sunk cost.
December 6, 2013 at 5:30 pm #151180It said 40% of sale if I recall. So if you are selling all the 25000 per month. then shouldn’t you add 40% of the 25000 too?
December 6, 2013 at 5:31 pm #151182I recovered the working capital in year 4. I didn’t have any other working capital cash flows in that year though (unless you are talking about the beginning of that year, i.e. 12 months earlier).
December 6, 2013 at 5:31 pm #151183@clevergirl i edited my post. forgot to mention.
@geteveryone, yes you should recover the working capital as in year 4, your working capital is reduced(recovered) hence, you should recover in year 5. again, if you state your assumption on working capital, you wont be penalized.December 6, 2013 at 5:32 pm #151184It’s in year 4. 🙂
December 6, 2013 at 5:32 pm #151185Did anyone get 4000 for NPV in question 1a?
December 6, 2013 at 5:32 pm #151186December 6, 2013 at 5:33 pm #151187clever girl i did the same in question number 3 . i did it with current 60/365 and revised 60/365 ……….. and the difference wuld then be multiplied it with finance cost ……. and yeah the interest was 805% (1 minus 30%) gives 5.9 sunthing …… but guess i did mistake in irr ….. i took discount rates of 10 % and 5% …… and for question number 1 , i didnt inflate the nominal cashflows and the rate would be 12 percent …….. but in part b i inflated the sales and costs to general inflation .. and the rate was 7% ………. how was lease to be calculated ? kuz i came u with the decision of buying … kuz it gives sumthing in positive …….. any buddy did same like me ?
December 6, 2013 at 5:34 pm #151188I got 3000something for NPV part a). Probably messed up 🙁
December 6, 2013 at 5:34 pm #151189How did you guys treat working capital in question 1?
