Detailed Solution & Explanation

(a) (i) Initial Investment Using IRR = 12%, the NPV is zero. So, the initial investment is equal to the present value of inflows at 12%. Year Cash Inflows (`) PVF@12% Present Value (`) 1 1,00,000 0.893 89,300 2 1,00,000 0.797 79,700 3 80,000 0.712 56,960 4 80,000 0.636 50,880 4 50,000 (salvage) 0.636 31,800 Total 3,08,640 Total Present Value = ₹ 3,08,640. So, Initial Investment = ₹ 3,08,640. (ii) Net Present Value (NPV) Year Cash Flows (`) PVF@10% Present Value (`) 0 (3,08,640) 1 (3,08,640) 1 1,00,000 0.909 90,900 2 1,00,000 0.826 82,600 3 80,000 0.751 60,080 4 80,000 0.683 54,640 4 50,000 (salvage) 0.683 34,150 Sum of PV of Cash Inflows 3,22,370 NPV (3,22,370-3,08,640) 13,730 FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT AND STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT (iii) Profitability Index (PI) PI = Sum of PV of Cash Inflows Initial Cash Outflow = ₹ 3,22,370 ₹ 3,08,640 = 1.0445 (iv) Discounted Payback Period: Year Cash Flows (`) PVF@10% PV (`) Cumulative PV (`) 1 1,00,000 0.909 90,900 90,900 2 1,00,000 0.826 82,600 1,73,500 3 80,000 0.751 60,080 2,33,580 4 1,30,000 (including salvage) 0.683 88,790 3,22,370 So, discounted payback = 3 years + ₹ 3,08,640 – ₹ 2,33,580 ₹ 88,790 = 3.845 years OR 3.85 years OR 3 years 10 months 4 days approx. (v) Modified Internal Rate of Return (MIRR) Terminal value of cash inflows compounded to year 4 using 10%: Year Cash Inflows (`) @ 10% reinvestment rate factor Present Value (`) 1 1,00,000 1.331 1,33,100 2 1,00,000 1.210 1,21,000 3 80,000 1.100 88,000 4 80,000 1.000 80,000 4 50,000 (salvage) 1.000 50,000 Total 4,72,100 Total Terminal Value = ₹ 4,72,100 Now, 3,08,640/4,72,100 = 0.6537 or 0.654 If we see 0.654 in year of present value discount table, the rate which is coming is around 11.20%. So, MIRR is around 11.20%. Alternatively, solution can be presented in following way for MIRR: Total Return = 4,72,100/3,08,640 = 1.5296 (1+r)4 = 1.5296 MIRR = (1.5296) (1/4) – 1 = 11.20% (Approx) (b) Market Value of Equity = Net income (NI) for equity holders Ke ₹ 1,400 lakhs = Net income (NI) for equity holders 0.18 Net Income to equity holders/EAT = ₹ 252 lakhs Therefore, EBIT = EAT (1-t) = 252 lakhs (1 – 0.3) = ₹ 360 lakhs Income Statement All Equity (` In lakhs) Equity & Debt (` In lakhs) EBIT (as calculated above) Interest on ₹ 300 lakhs @ 12% EBT Tax @ 30% Income available to equity holders 360 - 360 108 252 360 36 324 97.2 226.8 (i) Market value of Z Ltd Market value of levered firm = Value of unlevered firm + Tax Advantage = ₹ 1,400 lakhs + (₹ 300 lakhs x 0.3) = ₹ 1,490 lakhs Change in market value of the company = 1,490 lakhs – 1,400 lakhs = ₹ 90 lakhs The impact is that the market value of the company has increased by ₹ 90 lakhs due to replacement of equity with debt. FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT AND STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT (ii) Overall Cost of Capital Market Value of Equity = Market value of levered firm - Equity repurchased = ₹ 1,490 lakhs – ₹ 300 lakhs = ₹ 1,190 lakhs Cost of Equity (Ke) = Net Income to equity holders Market value of equity  × 100 = ₹ 226.8 lakhs ₹ 1190 lakhs  × 100 =19.06% (approx.) Cost of debt (Kd) = I (1 - t) = 12 (1 - 0.3) = 8.4% Components Amount (` In lakhs) Cost of Capital % Weight WACC (Ko) % Equity Debt 1,190 300 19.06 8.4 0.80(approx.) 0.20(approx.) 15.25 1.68 1490 1 16.93 (Note: If we take the weight of Equity as 0.7986 and weight of Debt as 0.2013 then WACC will be 16.91%). Impact on Market value and Overall cost of capital of Z Ltd. Particulars Before restructure After restructure Impact Market value of company ₹ 1,400 lakhs ₹ 1,490 Lakhs Increase due to import of debt Cost of equity 18% 19.06% Increase Overall cost of capital 18% 16.93% Decrease So, the impact is that the Overall Cost of Capital or Ko has fallen by 1.07% (18% - 16.93%) due to the benefit of tax relief on debt interest payment. (iii) Cost of Equity The impact is that cost of equity has risen by 1.06% (19.06% - 18%) due to the presence of financial risk i.e. introduction of debt in capital structure. Note: Cost of Capital and Cost of equity can also be calculated with the help of following formulas, Cost of Capital (Ko) = Keu [1 – (t x L)] Where, Keu = Cost of equity in an unlevered company t = Tax rate L = Debt Debt + Equity So, Ko = 0.18 ቂ1- ቀ0.3 × ₹ 300 lakhs ₹ 1490 lakhsቁቃ= 0.1691 or 16.91% (approx.) Cost of Equity (Ke) = Keu + (Keu – Kd) Debt (1-t) Equity Where, Keu = Cost of equity in an unlevered company Kd = Cost of debt t = Tax rate So, Ke = 0.18 + ቀ(0.18-0.12) × ₹ 300 lakhs (1-0.3) ₹ 1190 lakhs ቁ = 0.1906 or 19.06%
