Definition of NPV
SUM OF the present values (PV's) of ALL EXPECTED INCREMENTAL CASH INFLOWS generated by the project undertaken MINUS SUM OF the present values (PV's) the ALL EXPECTED CASH OUTFLOWS of the project undertaken
Definition of Present Value of Cash Flow
PV of Project's Cash Flow is a value of the future Cash Flow DISCOUNTED to a given point in time AT a DISCOUNT RATE that is NOT LESS THAN the firm's COST OF CAPITAL
NPV calculus
1. Identify ALL CIFs and COFs 2. Determine the appropriate DISCOUNT RATE or OPPORTUNITY COST (r) 3. Find the PV of each cash flow 4. Sum ALL PVs 5. Apply the NPV rule
NPV Rule for Independent investments
ACCEPT investments IF NPV > 0; REJECT investments IF NPV < 0
NPV rule for Mutually Exclusive Investments
ACCEPT an investment with HIGHER POSITIVE NPV
NPV advantages
1. Measures an INCREASE in a VALUE of the firm 2. Assumes REINVESTMENT at a DISCOUNT RATE (OPPORTUNITY COST of CAPITAL) 3. Based on Time Value of Money
NPV limitations
does NOT include any consideration of the size of the project
Definition of IRR
1. a DISCOUNT RATE that makes NET PRESENT VALUE = 0; 2. SUM OF the PRESENT VALUES (PV's) of ALL EXPECTED INCREMENTAL CASH INFLOWS generated by the project undertaken IS EQUAL to SUM OF the PRESENT VALUES (PV's) the ALL EXPECTED CASH OUTFLOWS of the project undertaken
IRR Rule for Independent investments
ACCEPT investments IF IRR > OPPORTUNITY COST of CAPITAL(hurdle rate); REJECT investments IF IRR < OPPORTUNITY COST of CAPITAL(hurdle rate)
IRR Rule for Mutually Exclusive Investments
IF (Project A's IRR > Project B's IRR AND Project A's IRR > OPPORTUNITY COST of CAPITAL) THEN ACCEPT Project A
Dependence of NPV upon IRR
1. IF (IRR > OPPORTUNITY COSTof CAPITAL) THEN NPV > 0; 2. IF (IRR < OPPORTUNITY COST of CAPITAL) THEN NPV < 0 ; 3. IF (IRR = OPPORTUNITY COST of CAPITAL) THEN NPV = 0
IRR advantages
1. Considers Time Value of Money; 2. Considers ALL CASH FLOWS
IRR limitations
1. assumes REINVESTMENTat the IRR; however, this MAY NOT always BE REALISTIC; 2. there may be MULTIPLE or NO IRR in case of NONCONVENTIONAL CASH FLOW PATTERN; 3. expressed in PERCENTAGE terms; this involves DIFFICULTIES in RANKING projects
IRR rule vs NPV rule characteristics
1. SAME investment RANKING for INDEPENDENT projects; 2. DIFFERENT investment RANKING when the PROJECTS are DIFFERENT in SIZEof cash flows and when the PROJECTS are DIFFERENT in TIMINGcash flows; 3. NPV preference for MUTUALLY EXCLUSIVE projects
Holding Period Return
Percentage increase in wealth over a period
Definition of Money-Weighted Rate of Return
IRR on a portfolio that takes into  account all cash  inflows  and outflows
Definition of Cash InFlows in MWRR
1. BEGINING VALUEof the account; 2. The PROCEEDSfrom any INVSTMNT SOLD; 3. DIVIDENDS/INTRST RECEIVED; 4. CONTRIBUTIONS
Definition of Cash OutFlows in MWRR
1. COST of INVSTMNT PURCHASED; 2. DIVIDENDS/INTRST REINVESTED; 3. WITHDRAWALS; 4. ENDING VALUE of the account
MVRR calculus
1. Determine each CASH FLOW as Cash InFlow or Cash OutFlow; 2. Determine the TIMING of each CASH FLOW; 3. Net the CASH FLOWS FOR each TIME PERIOD; 4. Set the Present Value of Cash InFlows EQUAL TO Present Value of Cash OutFlows; 5. Solve for IRR
MVRR characteristics
1. Applies IRR calculus; Sensetive to the TIMING and AMOUNT of CASH INFLOWS and OUTFLOWS
Definition of TWRR
1. Measures compound growth; 2. Rate at which $1 compounds  over  a  specified  performance horizon; 3. Result value of the  process of averaging a set of  values  over time
TWRR calculus
1.FORM SUBPERIODS over the evaluation period that correspond to the dates of deposits and withdrawals
2. EVALUATE PORTFOLIO VALUE at the dates of deposits and withdrawals
3. COMPUTE HPR for each subperiod
4. COMPUTE the PRODUCT of (1+HPR) for each subperiod
5. IF the TOTAL INVSTMNT PERIOD is GREATER than ONE YEAR then TAKE the GEOMETRIC MEAN of the measurement period return
TWRR advantages
1. PREFERRED method of performance measurement
2. NOT AFFECTED by the TIMING of CASH INFLOWS and CASH OUTFLOWS
3. PROVIDES a better measurement of a manager's ability to select investments over the period
MVRR vs TVRR characteristics
1. Funds contributed just before a period of relatively poor portfolio performance result in MVRR < TWRR
2. Funds contributed just prior a period of relatively high portfolio performance result in MVRR > TWRR
3. In Case of COMPLETE CONTROL over money FLOWS result in MVRR is more appropriate performance measurement
Drawbacks of Bank Discount Yield
1. is BASED on the FACE VALUE RATHER THAN PURCHASE PRICE (NOT TRUE rate of return)
2. is ANNUALIZED on a 360-DAY YEAR RATHER THAN a 365-DAY YEAR (SHORT year)
3. ANNUALIZES with SIMPLE INTEREST (WITHOUT COMPOUNDING)
Definition of Holding Period Yield
1. Determines RETURN EARNED by HOLDING the instrmnt TO MATURITY
2. Refers to an UNANNUALIZED RATE of RETURN (being PERIODIC RATEof RETURN)
3. Applies to instrmnts that make ONE CASH PAYMENT DURING ITS LIFE
4. May be applied to an INTEREST BEARING INSTRUMENT
