If income tax considerations are ignored, how is depreciation handled by the following capital budgeting techniques?

  1. Option A
  2. Option B
  3. Option C
  4. Option D

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

If taxes are ignored, depreciation is not a consideration in any of the methods based on cash flows because it is a non-cash expense. Thus, the internal rate of return, net present value, and payback methods would not consider depreciation because these methods are based on cash flows. However, the accounting rate of return is based on net income as calculated on an income statement. Because depreciation is included in the determination of accrual accounting net income, it would affect the calculation of the accounting rate of return.

Maloney Company uses a 12% hurdle rate for all capital expenditures and has done the following analysis for four projects for the upcoming year


Which project(s) should Maloney undertake during the upcoming year assuming it has no budget restrictions?

  1. All of the projects.
  2. Projects 1, 2 and 3.
  3. Projects 1, 2 and 4.
  4. Projects 1 and 2.

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

A company using the net present value (NPV) method should undertake all projects with positive NPVs that are not mutually exclusive. Given that Projects 1, 2, and 4 have positive NPVs, those projects should be undertaken. Furthermore, a company using the internal rate of return (IRR) as a decision rule ordinarily chooses projects with a return greater than the cost of capital. Given a 12% cost of capital. Projects 1, 2, and 4 should be chosen using an IRR criterion if they are not mutually exclusive. Use of the profitability index yields a similar decision because a project with an index greater than 100% should be undertaken.
