Capital Budgeting: Capital Budgeting is the process of acquiring the fixed assets or
process of the investment in capital projects. Capital budgeting is the technique of
deciding whether or not to acquire capital projects. Capital budgeting is an important of
the financial manager. The impact of capital budgeting is long lasting and it is not easily

capital along with equity is called levered firm. The capital structure issue generally
centers around whether or not and to what extent a firm should use debt financing.
Q. No. 2
Solution:
a) Owner’s Equity= current asset+ net fixed asset-(long term debt + current liabilities)
25620 25620
= 7920 - 4580
= 3340
= 3496/25620
= 0.1364 0r 13.64%
= 3496/2000
= $ 1.75
Price Earning (PE) Ratio = market price per share / earning per share
= 12/1.75
= $ 6.86
Q. No. 3)
Solution:
For Bank A
= (1+0.085/2) ^2 – 1
= (1+0.0425) ^2 -1
=1.08680625 – 1
= 0.0868 or 8.68%
For Bank B
= (1+0.0845/4) ^4 -1
= 1.087522 – 1
= 0.08722 or 8.722%
(b) Calculation of maturity amount
A = P (1+ r/n) ^(n*t)
Where:
A = Maturity Amount after t (Time)
r = Interest Rate
n = number of compounding period in a year
t = Time
For Bank B
Maturity Amount = $120,000 (1+ 0.0845/4) ^ (4 *15)
= $120,000 * 3.350537
=$420645.0572
c) present value(p.v)=$120000
time(t)=10years
now,
fv= pv(1+r)^n
450000 = 120000(1+r) ^ 10
450000/120000 = (1+ r)^ 10
3.75 = (1 +r ) ^ 10
(3.75)^1/10 = ( 1+r)
1.1413086 = 1+r
R= 0.1413 or 14.13%
Q. NO. 4
a) The return of over past five years are 9.7%, -6.2%, 12.1%, 11.5%, 13.3%
Geometric average rate of return
=√n ( 1+ r 1 )∗( 1+r 2 )∗( 1+r 3 )∗(1+ r 4 )∗(1+r 5) -1
Where, r = rate of return
n= number of years
√5 ( 1+ 0.097 )∗( 1−0.062 )∗(1+ 0.121 )∗( 1+0.115 )∗(1+ 0.133) - 1
= √5 1.457202326 – 1
= 1.07821 -1
= 0.07821 or 7.821 %
b) Beta of stock =
Expected Rate of return E(R) = 14.6%
Risk premium = 5.8%
Risk free rate = 5.9%
Inflation rate = 2.7
E( r) = R f + (E( Rm ¿ - R F) * β
14.6 = 5.9 +( 5.8) * β
Β = 1.5
= 15.8%
Standard deviation of portfolio =
=0.1775 or 17.75%
Q. NO. 5
= $1582.95
b) the current price of the ordinary share if the average return of the shares in the same
industry is 9%?
Rate of return ( K s ¿ = 9%
Now
D1
Cuurent price of share =
¿¿
= $125
c) ) the current price of the ordinary share if the average return of the shares in the same
industry is 12 %
D1
Current price of share =
¿¿
= $83.33
Q. NO.6
For Equipment 1
Profitability Index (P.I)= Present value cash flow / initial cash outlay
= 317799.7/186000
= 1.7086
For Equipment 2
Initial cash outlay = $195,000
= 328095.1/195000
=1.68
Therefore, equipment 1 projected should be accepted by company because the profitability index
of equipment 1 is higher than equipment 2.
for Equipment 1
Where,
I f = unrecovered cost at the beginning of the year of full recovery of original investment
DCF F = total discounted cash flow during the year of full recovery of original investment
Now
26643.7
DPBP = 2+
65885.4
= 2.404 years
For Equipment 2
If
Discounted Payback Period (DPBP) = N f −1 +
DCF F
33174.5
=2+
68266.8
=2.48 years
Equipment 1 project should be accepted because discounted pay back period less than equipment
2.
