Joshua Industries is considering a new project with cash inflows of $478,000 for the indefinite future. Cash costs are 68 percent of the cash inflows. The initial cost of the investment is $685,000. The tax rate is 34 percent and the unlevered cost of equity is 14.2 percent. The firm is financing $200,000 of the project cost with debt. What is the adjusted present value of the project?

Answer:

$93,940.85

Explanation:

Adjusted present value is the sum of net present value of after tax cash flow and net present value of tax shield.

First compute after tax cash flow:

Cash inflow = $478,000

Cash cost = 68% of $478,000 = $325,040

Pre-tax profit = 478,000 - 325,040 = $152,960

Tax = 34 %

After tax cash flow = 152,960 (1 - 0.34) = $100,953.60

Net present value of after tax cash flow = [tex]\frac{After\ tax\ cash\ flow }{Cost\ of\ equity} -Intial\ investment\\[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{100,953.60}{0.142} - 685,000[/tex]

= $25,940.85

Present value of tax shield = Amount of debt × tax rate

= 200,000 × 0.34

= $68,000

Adjusted present value = 28,940.85 + 68,000

= $93,940.85
