UniformSeriesInvolvingP/AandA/P
The uniform series factors that involve P and A are derived as follows:
(1) Cash flow occurs in consecutive interest periods
(2) Cash flow amount is same in each interest period

The cash flow diagrams are:

A=Given A=?

0 1 2 3 4 5 0 1 2 3 4 5

P=? P=Given

P = A(P/A,i,n) Standard Factor Notation A = P(A/P,i,n)

treatment polymer, his company would earn an extra $5000 per year. At an interest
rate of 10% per year, how much could the company afford to spend now to just
break even over a 5 year project period?

(A) $11,170 (B) 13,640 (C) $15,300 (D) $18,950

The cash flow diagram is as follows: Solution:

2) Contractservices

– Considerifthealternative

3) Earlyterminationofthe

FutureWorthAnalysis
FW exactly like PW analysis, except calculate FW

Must compare alternatives for equal service


(i.e. alternatives must end at the same time)

Youcan compareitemswithadifferentuseful

Assumptions:
Services needed for at least the LCM of lives of alternatives
Selected alternative will be repeated in succeeding life cycles
in same manner as for the first life cycle
All cash flows will be same in every life cycle (i.e., will change
by only inflation or deflation rate)

CapitalRecoveryandAW
Capital recovery (CR) is the equivalent annual amount
that an asset, process, or system must earn each year to
just recover the first cost and a stated rate of return over
its expected life. Salvage value is considered when
calculating CR.

CR=ͲP(A/P,i%,n)+S(A/F,i%,n)

CalculationofIncrementalCF
Incremental cash flow = cash flowB – cash flowA
where larger initial investment is Alternative B

Example: Either of the cost alternatives shown below can be used in


a grinding process. Tabulate the incremental cash flows.

A B B-A
First cost, $ -40,000 - 60,000 -20,000
Annual cost, $/year -25,000 -19,000 +6000
Salvage value, $ 8,000 10,000 +2000
The incremental CF is shown in the (B-A) column
The ROR on the extra $20,000 investment in B determines which alternative
to select (as discussed later)

Depreciation
Depreciation: decrease in value of physical properties with
the passage of time and use.
• Tax deprecation is an annual deduction against income such that
the effect of time and use on an asset’s value can be reflected in a
firm’s financial statement.
Cost Basis (B) The initial cost of acquiring an asset (plus sales tax) and
costs to make it serviceable (e.g., transportation, installation).
Book Value (BVk) The value of asset as shown on the accounting
records. Represents amount of money still invested in the property.
BVk = book value at EOY k

240
TaxDepreciationCriteria
Typicalcriteriaforpropertytobedepreciable:

1. Itmustbeusedinbusinessorheldtoproduceincome.
2. Itmusthaveadeterminableusefullife(longerthan1
year).
3. Itmustbesomethingthatwearsout,decays,getsused

StraightLineDepreciation
Book value decreases linearly with time

BS Where: Dt = annual depreciation charge


Dt t = year
n B = first cost or unadjusted basis
S = salvage value
n = recovery period

BVt B  tDt Where: BVt = book value after t years

SL depreciation rate is constant for each year: d = dt = 1/n

DecliningBalanceDepreciation
Determined by multiplying BV at beginning of year by a fixed percentage
Fixed percentage d is sometimes stated directly
Max rate for d is twice straight line rate, i.e., d ” 2/n

Always depreciates to zero; no salvage value considered

Incorporates switching from DDB to SL depreciation

Standardized recovery periods (n) are utilized
