The company will need to finance some of the cash to fund $17 million in receivables and $14 million in Inventory starting at year zero. With a cost of equity at 9% and an expected future dividend of $2.38 and a growth rate of 7% McCormick & Company projects profits for the company's future. The $17 million for receivables and the $14 million for Inventory are cash outflows. The company expects vendors to give free credit on purchases of $15 million (accounts Payable). The $15 million for receivables is a cash inflow.

The purchase price was approximately $4.2 billion, net of acquired cash the acquisition was funded through our issuance of approximately 6.35 million shares of common stock. The RB Foods acquisition resulted in acquisitions contributing more than one-third of sales growth in 2017 and is expected to result in acquisitions contributing more than one-third of our sales growth in 2018. The calculated Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) for McCormick and Company is 10.70%. I recommend McCormick should change its discount rate from 7% to 9% as market situation changed too much and low discount rate shows higher enterprise value of company which is good for the company but not for investors and stakeholders. If McCormick & Company has not researched tax or other incentives that Maryland provides to new businesses to help their overall returns, they should because they may be entitled to benefits such as new business loans with a low APR, or new business tax breaks on the following years taxes. Understanding capital budgeting helps businesses to see into the future and determine the profitability of a long-term investment. It is used ultimately to weigh the merits of a proposed capital investment and helps to narrow down which of the opportunities will be fruitful for the company. It also helps companies develop long term strategic business goals and provides budgeting and expenditure control for projects that have been accepted. Capital budgeting can also provide a business hard numbers used to determine risks and potential returns, making sure that money that is spent is making money for the company. After all, making poor investment decisions can have a devastating effect on a company (Thomas, 2018). The CFO thinks that the likely NPV will be close to $327.48 million McCormick should accept this project. many investment Recommendations Maintain NPV and IRR at its current rate due to profitability Keep operating expenses as low as possible by not overspending, creating and sticking to a budget Monitor tax laws that may go into effect especially after purchasing a portion of land that some of the business will be built on. 100 O Focu 676 words 12:46 AM 100% 12/17/2019 Type here to search
