If the wildcat well is a success, it should produce 75×365 = 27,375 barrels per year. Suppose production starts after one year. The net cash flow per barrel, after pipeline and shipping costs and including one year’s inflation at 2.5%, is (100 – 20) ×1.025 = $82. Total cash flow is C1 = 27,375×82 = $2,245,000 (we will round to the nearest $1000). Production will decline by 5% per year, but prices are projected to grow at 2.5% per year. The net growth rate is (1.025×.95) – 1 = –.026 or –2.6%.

Johnny used the CAPM to get a discount rate. The interest rate is 6%, the market risk premium is 7% and the beta is .8. Thus:



The cash flows from the oil well are a 15-year annuity declining at 2.6% per year.[1] Johnny decided to use the short-cut formula in Table 2.2. The short cut starts with the formula for a growing (in this case declining) perpetuity, but subtracts the PV of another declining perpetuity. Let T = the date of the last cash flow from the declining annuity:







The second term inside the brackets subtracts the present value of an annuity starting in year 16 and discounts it back to the present. Note that the cash flow for year 16 is 

C1×(1 - .026)15.

Of course there was a 30 per cent chance of a dry hole, so Johnny multiplied his PV of $13,757,000 by 1 - .3 = .7 and subtracted the $5 million investment.



NPV = .7 ´ 13,757,000 – 5,000,000 = + $4,630,000



What about the operating leverage that so concerned Johnny’s father? Operating leverage is caused by fixed costs, in this base by the pipeline and shipping costs. These costs start at 20×1.025 = $20.50 per barrel in year 1 and are expected to grow at 2.5% per year. The calculation above folds them into net cash flows and discounts them at 11.6%, as if they were just as risky as the revenues. If they are really fixed, they should be discounted at a lower rate, for example at the 7% long-term borrowing rate for Jones Family Oil, Inc.

Johnny decided to see how the PV of the fixed costs would change when discounted at 7 vs. 11.6%. The PV per barrel at 11.6%, which was included in the PV calculated above, is:












The PV at 7% increases to:







Thus recognizing operating leverage could decrease overall PV by

(161.4 – 125.6) × 27,375 = $980,000 and decrease NPV to 13,757,000 – 980,000 = $12,777,000.[2] The wildcat well’s NPV is still positive, however, because .7 × 12,777,000 = $8,944,000 is still greater than the $5 million outlay.

It seems that Marsha’s oil well is an excellent investment. In fact it remains a good investment (ignoring any adjustment for operating leverage) even if production lasts only 6 years. You can check this by recalculating the declining annuity formula with T = 6, multiplying by the 0.7 probability of finding oil and subtracting the investment of $5 million. The resulting NPV is still positive.






[1] This assumes that the well produces one lump-sum cash flow per year at dates 1, 2, … , 15. This timing may not be right. If the cash flows are spread evenly over each year, and the well starts production at date 1, then it would be better to assume receipt at dates 1.5, 2.5, … , 15.5 (the mid-year convention). In this case you could discount the present values by an extra half year to account for the six-month delays. Or you could switch over to continuous compounding.




[2] This holds the 11.6% discount rate for revenues constant. If that rate was right for net cash flows (revenues less fixed costs), it is too high for revenues alone. Operating leverage adds risk to net cash flows, not to revenue. A lower discount rate for revenues would increase NPV and make the Marsha’s investment still more attractive.

Chapter 2 How to Calculate Present Values


OVERVIEW


This chapter introduces the concept of present value and shows why a firm should maximize the market value of the stockholders’ stake in it.  It describes the mechanics of calculating present values of lump sum amounts, perpetuities, annuities, growing perpetuities, growing annuities and unequal cash flows. Other related topics like simple interest, frequent compounding, continuous compounding, and nominal and effective interest rates are discussed.  The net present value rule and the rate of return rule are explained in great detail.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES


  • To learn how to calculate present value of lump sum cash flows.
  • To understand and use the formulas associated with the present value of perpetuities;
growing perpetuities; annuities; and growing annuities.
  • To understand more frequent compounding including continuous compounding.
  • To understand the important difference between nominal and effective interest rates.
  • To understand value-additive property and the concept of arbitrage.
  • To understand the net present value rule and the rate of return rule.

CHAPTER OUTLINE


Future values and present values

The concepts of future value, present value, net present value (NPV) and the opportunity cost of capital (hurdle rate) are introduced. The authors show, using several numerical examples, that simple projects with rates of return exceeding the opportunity cost of capital have positive net present values.  The “Net present value rule” and the “Rate of return rule” are stated here.

This chapter also extends the concept of discounting to assets, which produce a series of cash flows.  The possibility of arbitrage restricts the relative values of discount factors DF1, DF2,…. DFt –.The main point is that money machines cannot exist in well-functioning financial markets.  Using numerical examples it shows how to calculate PV and NPV of a series of cash flows over a number of periods (years).

Looking for shortcuts – perpetuities and annuities

This section is devoted to developing formulae for perpetuities and annuities.  It explains the difference between an ordinary annuity and an annuity due. It also explains how the future value of an annuity is calculated.  The present value of an annuity can be thought of as the difference between two perpetuities


beginning at different times.  Using this simple idea, the formula for the present value of an annuity is derived.  The future value of an annuity formula is also derived.  These have numerous applications in pension funds, mortgages and valuation of financial assets.

More shortcuts – growing perpetuities and annuities

Some applications need the present value of a perpetual cash flow growing at a constant rate, as well as annuities that grow at a constant rate.  The formula for the present value of a growing perpetuity is derived.  The present value of a growing annuity can be thought of as the difference between two growing perpetuities starting at different times.  Using this simple idea, the formula for the present value of a growing annuity is also derived.  These formulas have many applications in the valuation of assets.

How Interest Is Paid and Quoted

This section explains the differences between compound interest and simple interest, as well as the differences between effective annual rates and annual percentage rates.  It deals with how each interest rate is used in the market place and the math necessary to move between the two kinds of interest rates.

TEACHING TIPS FOR POWERPOINT SLIDES


Slide 1 - Title slide

Slide 2
Explain the terms “future value” and “present value”.  The concept must be emphasized at this point. Consequently, it may be necessary to spend some time explaining real world examples of how present value and future value relate.  A good example to use is retirement planning.

Slide 3
FV  =  PV× [(1 + r)^ t ]

Define the terms:                      FV  =  Future value
                                            PV  = Present value
                                          r   = interest rate
                                               t   = number of years (Periods)

Explain the time value of money and its importance to financial decision making.


Walk through each step in the math process and show how the value increases. If you plan to have your students use a financial calculator, you can skip the details of the basic math. Be aware, students often stumble when doing simple math calculations.
