Capital Rationing Decision involving Four Proposals Kopecky Industries Inc. is considering allocating a limited amount of capital investment funds among four proposals. The amount of proposed investment, estimated Income from operations, and net cash flow for each proposal are as follows: Project Name Sierra Tango Uniform Victor Investment $900,000 Investment $2,770,865 Investment 51,762,515 Investment 51,040,013 Income Net Cash Income from Operations Net Cash Flows Income from Operations Net Cash Flows from Operations Year Net Cash Flows Flows Income from Operations $109,000 1 584,000 $240,000 $950,000 $207,000 $450,000 $390,000 $294,500 294,775 2 84,500 240,000 950,000 207,000 450,000 109,000 390,000 3 85,000 240,000 295,050 109,000 109,000 85,500 950,000 950,000 950,000 390,000 390,000 240,000 207,000 207,000 207,000 295,325 450,000 450,000 450,000 52,250,000 5 86,000 240,000 295,600 109,000 390,000 Total $425,000 $1,200,000 $1,475,250 $4,750,000 $1,035,000 5545,000 $1,950,000 Present Value of $1 at Compound Interest Year 6% 10% 12% 15% 20% 86,000 240,000 295,600 950,000 207,000 450,000 109,000 390,000 Total $425,000 $1,200,000 $1,475,250 $4,750,000 $1,035,000 $2,250,000 $545,000 $1,950,000 Present Value of $1 at Compound Interest Year 6% 10% 12% 15% 20% 0.943 0.909 0.893 0.870 0.833 2 0.890 0.826 0.797 0.756 0.694 3 0.840 0.751 0.712 0.658 0.579 4 0.792 0.683 0.636 0.572 0.482 5 0.747 0.621 0.567 0.497 0.402 6 0.705 0.564 0.507 0.432 0.335 7 0.665 0.513 0.452 0.376 0.279 8 0.627 0.467 0.404 0.327 0.233 9 0.592 0.424 0.361 0.284 0.194 10 0.558 0.386 0.322 0.247 0.162 The company's capital rationing policy requires a maximum cash payback period of three years. In addition, a minimum average rate of return of 20% is required on all projects. If the preceding standards are met, the net present value method and present value indexes are used to rank the remaining proposals. 2. Giving effect to straight-line depreciation on the investments and assuming no estimated residual value, compute the average rate of return for each of the four proposals. Round to one decimal place. Average Rate of Return Proposal Sierra % Proposal Tango 34.29 X % % Proposal Uniform Proposal Victor 4. For the proposals accepted for further analysis in part (3), compute the net present value. Use a rate of 12% and the present value of $1 table above. If required, use the minus sign to indicate a subtraction or negative net present value. Select the proposal accepted for further analysis. Proposal Tango Proposal Victor Present value of net cash flow total Amount to be invested Net present value 5. Compute the present value Index for each of the proposals in part (4). Round to two decimal places. Select the proposal to compute present value index. Proposal Tango Proposal Victor Present value index (rounded) 6. Rank the proposals from most attractive to least attractive, based on the present values of net cash flows computed in part (4) Rank 1st Proposal Tango Rank 2nd Proposal Victor
