To calculate the present value (PV) of future cash flows, we use the formula:
The present value formula is PV = FV/(1 + i) n where PV = present value, FV = future value, i
= decimalized interest rate, and n = number of periods.
Let's calculate the present value for each cash flow:
1 – 10000/(1+0.10)^1 = 9091
2 – 20000/(1+0.10)^2 = 16528
3 - 30000/(1+0.10)^3 = 22539
4 - 40000/(1+0.10)^4 = 27320
5 - 50000/(1+0.10)^5 = 31045
Year Cash Flow Discount Factor Present Value (₹)
(1/(1+r)^n)
1 10000 0.909 9091
2 20000 0.826 16528
3 30000 0.751 22539
4 40000 0.683 27320
5 50000 0.620 31045

Walter’s formula for the valuation of equity shares considers the relationship between the
company's return on investment (r) and the cost of equity (ke). The formula is given by:
P = D + (E-D) ( r/k ) / k
Here,
P = The value of the share price on every equity (price per equity share)
D = The dividend value on every share (dividend per share)
E = The value of earning on every share (earnings per share)
(E-D) = The value that comes after subtracting the dividend of share from earning (retained
earnings per share).
r = The value of return on every investment (rate of return on investments)
K = It is the cost of equity.
Given:
• r for X Ltd = 12%, Y Ltd = 8%, Z Ltd = 10%

Working capital management refers to the administration and control of a company's short-
term assets and liabilities to ensure the company maintains sufficient liquidity to carry out its
activities successfully and satisfy its short-term obligations. Effective working capital
management comprises managing inventories, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and cash
to enhance a firm's operating efficiency and profitability.
Nature of Business:
Production vs. Provision: Because they must keep inventories of finished goods, work-in-
progress, and raw materials, manufacturing companies usually need more working capital than
service companies, which may need less because they don't keep large inventories.
Business Cycle:
Economic Situation: In times of economic expansion, companies could require additional
working capital to keep up with demand. On the other hand, working capital requirements may
drop during a recession.
Production Cycle:
Length of Production: Before they can sell their goods and turn a profit, businesses with longer
production cycles need to fund labor, raw materials, and overhead expenditures. This requires
more working capital.
Credit Policy:
Receivables Management: A company that extends extended credit terms to its clients may
have larger amounts of accounts receivable and, as a result, a greater need for working capital.
On the other hand, tighter terms for borrowing can lower the requirement for working capital.
Inventory Management:
Inventory Levels: Higher inventory levels require more working capital. Working capital
requirements can be lowered by using effective inventory management techniques, such as
just-in-time (JIT) systems, which can lessen the need for excess inventory.
Efficiency of Operation:
Process Optimization: Working capital requirements can be decreased by shortening the time
needed to transform raw resources into completed goods and sell them. This can be achieved
through efficient operations and simplified procedures.
Terms of Supplier:
Accounts Payable Management: Working capital requirements can be decreased by having
suppliers grant favorable credit terms, which might lessen the demand for cash right now. Strict
payment conditions, on the other hand, may result in a greater requirement for working capital.
Growth and Expansion: As a business expands, it frequently needs more working capital to
meet the demands of growing inventory, accounts receivable, and other operational
requirements.
