Question 1“Thin Fabrications Pty Ltd” is a manufacturing business based in Darwin. Their company tax rate is 30%. It is considering the replacement of a manually operated machine with a fully automated model. Currently 6 full-time operators are needed to operate the machine. This labour costs the company $420,000 p.a. in wages, holiday pay and compulsory superannuation payments to the employees’ selected funds. In addition, maintenance costs are $45,000 per year.

The machine was bought 4 years ago for $200,000. The Australian Tax Office schedule includes the asset in the 14 year’ useful-life category and only allows prime cost depreciation (with no residual) for this type of plant and equipment. The current disposal value of the machine presently in use is $75,000.

The new model under consideration has a purchase price of $600,000. It is estimated that shipping and installation would cost $30,000. Maintenance on the new machine would be $100,000 p.a. but the adoption of that machine would cut the cost of defects from $35,000 to $10,000 per year.

The new machine is in a 10 year’ useful life tax category on the Australian Tax Office schedule. The company is of the opinion that 10 years is an accurate representation of useful life and will use it in their project economics.

The company expects the new machine will fetch proceeds of $50,000 at the end of 10 years but half of this will be lost on repairing the factory floor and strengthening the building’s foundations directly below the machine when the machine is removed.

The required rate of return for projects of this risk level is 10%.

Required: (a) Determine the cash flows associated with this replacement project
(b) Compute the NPV, IRR and Profitability Index and advise if you would recommend the project, with reasons.

Question 2The beta for Dell Inc. ordinary shares is 1.25. Dell is based in the USA. Suppose the yield on 10-year government bonds in that country is 3% and you expect listed shares in the USA to consistently make a return of 10% including dividends. Today the price of Dell’s ordinary shares is $100 and there are 21.7 million issued ordinary shares. You expect dividends on ordinary shares to increase at a constant rate of 2.5% per annum nominal and just last week you saw that Dell paid a dividend of $2.00 per share. Dell pays a dividend once a year only.

You know that Dell has also issued 900,000 preference shares that are currently trading at $75 and which pay a fixed dividend of $3.00 annually.

You are also aware that Dell has 825,000 bonds outstanding and that these are on average 3 years from maturity and pay coupon interest of 3.96% on a Face Value of $1000. The bond-equivalent yield (= quoted yield) on these securities is 4.95% p.a. Coupon is paid semi-annually.

Dell’s preferred approach in working out its cost of ordinary equity is the CAPM. The corporate tax rate is 25%.

Required: Compute Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) for Dell and show all workings. You are to respect that company’s preference for the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM)
