ZIP ZAP
ZOOM CAR COMPANY
Zip Zap Zoom Company Ltd is into manufacturing cars
in the small car (800 cc) segment. It was set up 15 years back and since its
establishment it has seen a phenomenal growth in both its market and
profitability. Its financial statements are shown in Exhibits 1 and 2
respectively.
The company enjoys the confidence
of its shareholders who have been rewarded with growing dividends year after
year. Last year, the company had announced 20 per cent dividend, which was the
highest in the automobile sector. The company has never defaulted on its loan
payments and enjoys a favourable face with its lenders, which include financial
institutions, commercial banks and debenture holders.
The competition in the car industry has increased
in the past few years and the company foresees further intensification of
competition with the entry of several foreign car manufactures many of them
being market leaders in their respective countries. The small car segment
especially, will witness entry of foreign majors in the near future, with
latest technology being offered to the Indian customer. The Zip Zap Zoom’s
senior management realizes the need for large scale investment in up gradation
of technology and improvement of manufacturing facilities to pre-empt
competition.
Whereas on the one hand, the
competition in the car industry has been intensifying, on the other hand, there
has been a slowdown in the Indian economy, which has not only reduced the
demand for cars, but has also led to adoption of price cutting strategies by
various car manufactures. The industry indicators predict that the economy is
gradually slipping into recession.

The loans have to be retired in
the next ten years and the firm redeems Rs. 40 crore every year.
The
company is faced with the problem of deciding how much to invest in up
gradation of its plans and technology. Capital investment up to a maximum
of Rs. 100 crore is required. The problem areas are three-fold.
The company cannot forgo the capital investment as that could lead to
reduction in its market share as technological competence in this industry is a
must and customers would shift to manufactures providing latest in car
technology.
The company does not want to issue new equity shares and its retained
earning are not enough for such a large investment. Thus, the only option is
raising debt.
The company wants to limit its additional debt to a level that it can
service without taking undue risks. With the looming recession and uncertain
market conditions, the company perceives that additional fixed obligations
could become a cause of financial distress, and thus, wants to determine its additional
debt capacity to meet the investment requirements.
Mr. Shortsighted, the company’s Finance Manager, is
given the task of determining the additional debt that the firm can raise. He
thinks that the firm can raise Rs. 100 crore worth debt and service it even in
years of recession. The company can raise debt at 15 per cent from a financial
institution. While working out the debt capacity. Mr. Shortsighted takes the
following assumptions for the recession years.
a)
A maximum of 10 percent reduction in sales volume
will take place.
b)
A maximum of 6 percent reduction in sales price of
cars will take place.
Mr. Shorsighted prepares a
projected income statement which is representative of the recession years.
While doing so, he determines what he thinks are the “irreducible minimum”
expenditures under recessionary conditions. For him, risk of insolvency is the
main concern while designing the capital structure. To support his view, he
presents the income statement as shown in Exhibit 3.

Assumptions of Mr. Shorsighted
R & D expenditure can be done away with till
the economy picks up. Marketing and advertising expenditure can be reduced by
40 per cent.
Keeping in mind the investor confidence that the
company enjoys, he feels that the company can forgo paying dividends in the
recession period.
He goes with his worked out statement to the
Director Finance, Mr. Arthashatra, and advocates raising Rs. 100 crore of debt
to finance the intended capital investment. Mr. Arthashatra does not feel
comfortable with the statements and calls for the company’s financial analyst,
Mr. Longsighted.
Mr. Longsighted carefully analyses Mr. Shortsighted’s
assumptions and points out that insolvency should not be the sole criterion
while determining the debt capacity of the firm. He points out the following :
Apart from debt servicing, there are certain expenditures like those on
R & D and marketing that need to be continued to ensure the long-term
health of the firm.
Certain management policies like those relating to
dividend payout, send out important signals to the investors. The Zip Zap Zoom’s
management has been paying regular dividends and discontinuing this practice
(even though just for the recession phase) could raise serious doubts in the
investor’s mind about the health of the firm. The firm should pay at least 10
per cent dividend in the recession years.
Mr. Shortsighted has used the accounting profits to determine the amount
available each year for servicing the debt obligations. This does not give the
true picture. Net cash inflows should be used to determine the amount available
for servicing the debt.
Net Cash inflows are determined by an interplay of many variables and
such a simplistic view should not be taken while determining the cash flows in
recession. It is not possible to accurately predict the fall in any of the
factors such as sales volume, sales price, marketing expenditure and so on.
Probability distribution of variation of each of the factors that affect net
cash inflow should be analyzed. From this analysis, the probability
distribution of variation in net cash inflow should be analysed (the net cash
inflows follow a normal probability distribution). This will give a true
picture of how the company’s cash flows will behave in recession conditions.
The management recognizes that
the alternative suggested by Mr. Longsighted rests on data, which are complex and
require expenditure of time and effort to obtain and interpret. Considering the
importance of capital structure design, the Finance Director asks Mr.
Longsighted to carry out his analysis. Information on the behaviour of cash
flows during the recession periods is taken into account.
The methodology undertaken is as
follows :
(a)
Important factors that affect
cash flows (especially contraction of cash flows), like sales volume, sales
price, raw materials expenditure, and so on, are identified and the analysis is
carried out in terms of cash receipts and cash expenditures.
(b)
Each factor’s behaviour
(variation behaviour) in adverse conditions in the past is studied and future
expectations are combined with past data, to describe limits (maximum
favourable), most probable and maximum adverse) for all the factors.
(c)
Once this information is
generated for all the factors affecting the cash flows, Mr. Longsighted comes
up with a range of estimates of the cash flow in future recession periods based
on all possible combinations of the several factors. He also estimates the
probability of
occurrence
of each estimate of cash flow.
Assuming
a normal distribution of the expected behaviour, the mean expected
value of net cash inflow in adverse conditions came
out to be Rs. 220.27 crore with standard deviation of Rs. 110 crore.
Keeping in mind the looming recession and the
uncertainty of the recession behaviour, Mr. Arthashastra feels that the firm
should factor a risk of cash inadequacy of around 5 per cent even in the most
adverse industry conditions. Thus, the firm should take up only that amount of
additional debt that it can service 95 per cent of the times, while maintaining
cash adequacy.
Hence, the expected available net
cash inflow is Rs. 185.27 crore (i.e. Rs. 220.27 – Rs. 35 crore)
Analyse the debt capacity of the
company.

through tank trucks, storage in tanks, bottling operations and distribution to
dealers. During the bottling process, the cylinders are subjected to
pressurized filling of LPG followed by quality control and safety checks such
as weight, leakage and other defects. The cylinders passing through this
process are sealed and dispatched to dealers through trucks. The supply and
distribution section of the plant prepares the invoice which goes along with
the truck to the distributor. Statement of the Problem :
Mr. I. M. Smart, DGM(Finance) of the company, was
analyzing the financial performance of the company during the current year. The
various profitability ratios and parameters of the company indicated a very
satisfactory performance. Still, Mr. Smart was not fully content-specially with
the management of the working capital by the company. He could recall that
during the past year, in spite of stable demand pattern, they had to, time and
again, resort to bank overdrafts due to non-availability of cash for making
various payments. He is aware that such aberrations in the finances have a cost
and adversely affects the performance of the company. However, he was unable to
pinpoint the cause of the problem.
He discussed the problem with Mr. U.R. Keenkumar,
the new manager (Finance). After critically examining the details, Mr.
Keenkumar realized that the working capital was hitherto estimated only as
approximation by some rule of thumb without any proper computation based on
sound financial policies and, therefore, suggested a reworking of the working
capital (WC) requirement. Mr. Smart assigned the task of determination of WC to
him. Profile of Cooking LPG Ltd.
1)
Purchases
: The company purchases LPG in bulk from various importers ex-Mumbai and
Kandla, @ Rs. 11,000 per MT. This is transported to its Bottling Plant at
Gurgaon through 15 MT capacity tank trucks (called bullets), hired on annual
contract basis. The average transportation cost per bullet ex-either location
is Rs. 30,000. Normally, 2 bullets per day are received at the plant. The
company make payments for bulk supplies once in a month, resulting in average
time-lag of 15 days.
2)
Storage and Bottling : The bulk
storage capacity at the plant is 150 MT (2 x 75 MT storage tanks) and the plant
is capable of filling 30 MT LPG in cylinders per day. The plant operates for 25
days per month on an average. The desired level of inventory at various stages
is as under.
LPG in bulk (tanks and pipeline quantity in the plant) – three days
average production / sales. Filled Cylinders – 2 days average sales.
3)
Marketing : The LPG is supplied
by the company in 12 kg cylinders, invoiced @ Rs. 250 per cylinder. The rate of
applicable sales tax on the invoice is 4 per cent. A commission of Rs. 15 per
cylinder is paid to the distributor on the invoice itself. The filled cylinders
are delivered on company’s expense at the distributor’s godown, in exchange of
equal number of empty cylinders. The deliveries are made in truck-loads only,
the capacity of each truck being 250 cylinders. The distributors are required
to pay for deliveries through bank draft. On receipt of the draft, the
cylinders are normally dispatched on the same day. However, for every truck
purchased on pre-paid basis, the company extends a credit of 7 days to the distributors
on one truck-load.

9)
Additional Information for Calculating Incremental
Working Capital During Winter.
No increase in any inventories take place except in
the inventory of bulk LPG, which increases in the same proportion as the
increase of the demand. The actual requirements of LPG for additional supplies
are procured under the same terms and conditions from the suppliers.
The labour cost for additional production is paid at double the rate
during wintes. No changes in other administrative overheads.
The expenditure on power consumption during winter
increased by 10 per cent. However, during other months the power consumption
remains the same as the decrease owing to reduced production is offset by
increased consumption on account of compressors /Acs.
Additional amount of Rs. 3 lakh is kept as cash balance to meet
exigencies during winter. No change in time schedules for any payables /
receivables.
The storage of finished goods inventory is restricted to a maximum 5,000
cylinders due to statutory requirements.
M/S
HI-TECH ELECTRONICS
M/s. Hi – tech Electronics, a consumer electronics outlet, was opened
two years ago in Dwarka, New Delhi. Hard work and personal attention shown by
the proprietor, Mr. Sony, has brought success. However, because of insufficient
funds to finance credit sales, the outlet accepted only cash and bank credit
cards. Mr. Sony is now considering a new policy of offering installment sales
on terms of 25 per cent down payment and 25 per cent per month for three months
as well as continuing to accept cash and bank credit cards.
Mr. Sony feels this policy will
boost sales by 50 percent. All the increases in sales will be credit sales. But
to follow through a new policy, he will need a bank loan at the rate of 12
percent. The sales projections for this year without the new policy are given
in Exhibit 1. Exhibit 1 Sales Projections and Fixed costs

He further expects 26.67 per cent of the sales to
be cash, 40 per cent bank credit card sales on which a 2 per cent fee is paid,
and 33.33 per cent on installment sales. Also, for short term seasonal
requirements, the film takes loan from chit fund to which Mr. Sony subscribes @
1.8 per cent per month.
Their success has been due to
their policy of selling at discount price. The purchase per unit is 90 per cent
of selling price. The fixed costs are Rs. 20,000 per month. The proprietor
believes that the new policy will increase miscellaneous cost by Rs. 25,000.
The
business being cyclical in nature, the working capital finance is done on trade
– off basis.
The
proprietor feels that the new policy will lead to bad debts of 1 per cent.
(a)
As a
financial consultant, advise the proprietor whether he should go for the
extension of credit facilities.

SMOOTHDRIVE
TYRE LTD
Smoothdrive Tyre Ltd manufacturers tyres under the
brand name “Super Tread’ for the domestic car market. It is presently using 7
machines acquired 3 years ago at a cost of Rs. 15 lakh each having a useful
life of 7 years, with no salvage value.
After extensive research and
development, Smoothdrive Tyre Ltd has recently developed a new tyre, the ‘Hyper
Tread’ and must decide whether to make the investments necessary to produce and
market the Hyper Tread. The Hyper Tread would be ideal for drivers doing a
large amount of wet weather and off road driving in addition to normal highway
usage. The research and development costs so far total Rs. 1,00,00,000. The
Hyper Tread would be put on the market beginning this year and Smoothdrive Tyrs
expects it to stay on the market for a total of three years. Test marketing
costing Rs. 50,00,000, shows that there is significant market for a Hyper Tread
type tyre.
As a financial analyst at
Smoothdrive Tyre, Mr. Mani asked by the Chief Financial Officer (CFO), Mr.
Tyrewala to evaluate the Hyper-Tread project and to provide a recommendation or
whether or not to proceed with the investment. He has been informed that all
previous investments in the Hyper Tread project are sunk costs are only future
cash flows should be considered. Except for the initial investments, which
occur immediately, assume all cash flows occur at the year-end.
Smoothedrive Tyre must initially invest Rs.
72,00,00,000 in production equipments to make the Hyper Tread. They would be
depreciated at a rate of 25 per cent as per the written down value (WDV) method
for tax purposes. The new production equipments will allow the company to
follow flexible manufacturing technique, that is both the brands of tyres can
be produced using the same equipments. The equipments is expected to have a
7-year useful life and can be sold for Rs. 10,00,000 during the fourth year.
The company does not have any other machines in the block of 25 per cent
depreciation. The existing machines can be sold off at Rs. 8 lakh per machine
with an estimated removal cost of one machine for Rs. 50,000. Operating
Requirements
The operating requirements of the existing machines and the new
equipment are detailed in Exhibits 11.1 and 11.2 respectively.
Exhibit 11.1 Existing Machines
Labour
costs (expected to increase 10 per cent annually to account for inflation) :
(a)
20 unskilled labour @ Rs. 4,000 per month
(b)
20 skilled personnel @ Rs. 6,000 per month.
(c)
2 supervising executives @ Rs. 7,000 per month.
(d)
2 maintenance personnel @ Rs.
5,000 per month. Maintenance cost :
Years 1-5
: Rs. 25 lakh
Years 6-7
: Rs. 65 lakh
Operating expenses : Rs. 50 lakh expected to increase at 5 per cent
annually. Insurance cost / premium :
Year 1 :
2 per cent of the original cost of machine
After
year 1 : Discounted by 10 per cent.
Exhibit 11.2 New production Equipment
Savings
in cost of utilities : Rs. 2.5
lakh
Maintenance costs :
Year 1 –
2 : Rs. 8 lakh
Year 3 –
4 : Rs. 30 lakh
Labour
costs :
9 skilled
personnel @ Rs. 7,000 per month
1
maintenance personnel @ Rs. 7,000 per month.
Cost of
retrenchment of 34 personnel : (20 unskilled, 11 skilled, 2 supervisors and 1
maintenance personnel) : Rs. 9,90,000, that is
equivalent to six months salary. Insurance premium
Year 1 :
2 per cent of the purchase cost of machine
After
year 1 : Discounted by 10 per cent.
The opening expenses do not change to any considerable extent for the
new equipment and the difference is negligible compared to the scale of
operations. Smoothdrive Tyre intends to sell Hyper Tread of two distinct
markets :
1.
The
original equipment manufacturer (OEM) market : The OEM market consists
primarily of the large automobile companies who buy tyres for new cars. In the
OEM market, the Hyper Tread is expected to sell for Rs. 1,200 per tyre. The
variable cost to produce each Hyper Tread is Rs. 600.
2.
The replacement market : The
replacement market consists of all tyres purchased after the automobile has
left the factory. This markets allows higher margins and Smoothdrive Tyre
expects to sell the Hyper Tread for Rs. 1.500 per tyre. The variable costs are
the same as in the OEM market.
Smoothdrive
Tyre expects to raise prices by 1 percent above the inflation rate.
The variable costs will also increase by 1 per cent
above the inflation rate. In addition, the Hyper Tread project will incur Rs.
2,50,000 in marketing and general administration cost in the first year which
are expected to increase at the inflation rate in subsequent years.
Smoothdrive Tyre’s corporate tax
rate is 35 per cent. Annual inflation is expected to remain constant at 3.25
per cent. Smoothdrive Tyre uses a 15 per cent discount rate to evaluate new product
decisions.
The Tyre Market
Automotive industry analysts expect automobile
manufacturers to have a production of 4,00,000 new cars this year and growth in
production at 2.5 per year onwards. Each new car needs four new tyres (the
spare tyres are undersized and fall in a different category) Smoothdrive Tyre
expects the Hyper Tread to capture an 11 per cent share of the OEM market.
The industry analysts estimate
that the replacement tyre market size will be one crore this year and that it
would grow at 2 per cent annually. Smoothdrive Tyre expects the Hyper Tread to
capture an 8 per cent market share.
You also decide to consider net
working capital (NWC) requirements in this scenario. The net working capital
requirement will be 15 per cent of sales. Assume that the level of working
capital is adjusted at the beginning of the year in relation to the expected
sales for the year. The working capital is to be liquidated at par, barring an
estimated loss of Rs. 1.5 crore on account of bad debt. The bad debt will be a
tax-deductible expenses.
As a finance analyst, prepare a
report for submission to the CFO and the Board of Directors, explaining to them
the feasibility of the new investment.
COMPUTATION
OF COST OF CAPITAL OF PALCO LTD
In October 2003, Neha Kapoor, a recent MBA graduate and newly appointed
assistant to the Financial Controller of Palco Ltd, was given a list of six new
investment projects proposed for the following year. It was her job to analyse
these projects and to present her findings before the Board of Directors at its
annual meeting to be held in 10 days. The new project would require an
investment of Rs. 2.4 crore.
Palco Ltd was founded in 1965 by Late Shri A. V.
Sinha. It gained recognition as a leading producer of high quality aluminum,
with the majority of its sales being made to Japan. During the rapid economic
expansion of Japan in the 1970s, demand for aluminum boomed, and palco’s sales
grew rapidly. As a result of this rapid growth and recognition of new
opportunities in the energy market, Palco began to diversify its products line.
While retaining its emphasis on aluminum production, it expanded operations to
include uranium mining and the production of electric generators, and finally,
it went into all phases of energy production. By 2003, Palco’s sales had
reached Rs. 14 crore level, with net profit after taxes attaining a record of
Rs. 67 lakh.
As Palco expanded its products
line in the early 1990s, it also formalized its caital budgeting procedure.
Until 1992, capital investment projects were selected primarily on the basis of
the average return on investment calculations, with individual departments
submitting these calculations for projects falling within their division. In
1996, this procedure was replaced by one using present value as the decision
making criterion. This change was made to incorporate cash flows rather than
accounting profits into the decision making analysis, in addition to adjusting
these flows for the time value of money. At the time, the cost of capital for
Palco was determined to be 12 per cent, which has been used as the discount
rate for the past 5 years. This rate was determined by taking a weighted
average cost Palco had incurred in raising funds from the capital market over
the previous 10 years.
It had originally been Neha’s
assignment to update this rate over the most recent 10-year period and
determine the net present value of all the proposed investment opportunities
using this newly calculated figure. However, she objected to this procedure,
stating that while this calculation gave a good estimate of “the past cost” of
capital, changing interest rates and stock prices made this calculation of
little value in the present. Neha suggested that current cost of raising funds
in the capital market be weighted by their percentage mark-up of the capital
structure. This proposal was received enthusiastically by the Financial
Controller of the Palco, and Neha was given the assignment of recalculating
Palco’s cost of capital and providing a written report for the Board of
Directors explaining and justifying this calculation.
To determine a weighted average
cost of capital for Palco, it was necessary for Neha to examine the cost
associated with each source of funding used. In the past, the largest sources
of
funding had been the issuance of new equity shares and internally
generated funds. Through conversations with Financial Controller and other
members of the Board of Directors, Neha learnt that the firm, in fact, wished
to maintain its current financial structure as shown in Exhibit 1. Exhibit 1

She further determined that the strong growth patterns
that Palco had exhibited over the last ten years were expected to continue
indefinitely because of the dwindling supply of US and Japanese domestic oil
and the growing importance of other alternative energy resources. Through
further investigations, Neha learnt that Palco could issue additional equity
share, which had a par value of Rs. 25 pre share and were selling at a current
market price of Rs. 45. The expected dividend for the next period would be Rs.
4.4 per share, with expected growth at a rate of 8 percent per year for the
foreseeable future. The flotation cost is expected to be on an average Rs. 2
per share.
Preference shares at 11 per cent
with 10 years maturity could also be issued with the help of an investment
banker with an investment banker with a per value of Rs. 100 per share to be
redeemed at par. This issue would involve flotation cost of 5 per cent.
Finally, Neha learnt that it
would be possible for Palco to raise an additional Rs. 20 lakh through a 7 –
year loan from Punjab National Bank at 12 per cent. Any amount raised over Rs.
20 lakh would cost 14 per cent. Short-term debt has always been usesd by Palco
to meet working capital requirements and as Palco grows, it is expected to
maintain its proportion in the capital structure to support capital expansion.
Also, Rs. 60 lakh could be raised through a bond issue with 10 years maturity
with a 11 percent coupon at the face value. If it becomes necessary to raise
more funds via long-term debt, Rs. 30 lakh more could be accumulated through
the issuance of additional 10-year bonds sold at the face value, with the
coupon rate raised to 12 per cent, while any additional funds raised via
long-term debt would necessarily have a 10 – year maturity with a 14 per cent
coupon yield. The flotation cost of issue is expected to be 5 per cent. The
issue price of bond would be Rs. 100 to be redeemed at par.
In the past, Palco had calculated a weighted average of these sources of
funds to determine its cost of capital. In discussion with the current
Financial Controller, the point was raised that while this served as an
appropriate calculation for external funds, it did not take into account the
cost of internally generated funds. The Financial Controller agreed that there
should be some cost associated with retained earnings and need to be
incorporated in the calculations but didn’t have any clue as to what should be
the cost.
Palco Ltd
is subjected to the corporate tax rate of 40 per cent.
From the facts outlined above,
what report would Neha submit to the Board of Directors of palco Ltd?
NO. 6
ARQ LTD
ARQ Ltd is an Indian company based in Greater Noida, which manufactures
packaging materials for food items. The company maintains a present fleet of
five fiat cars and two Contessa Classic cars for its chairman, general manager
and five senior managers. The book value of the seven cars is Rs. 20,00,000 and
their market value is estimated at Rs. 15,00,000. All the cars fall under the
same block of depreciation @ 25 per cent.
A German multinational company (MNC) BYR Ltd, has
acquired ARQ Ltd in all cash deal. The merged company called BYR India Ltd is
proposing to expand the manufacturing capacity by four folds and the
organization structure is reorganized from top to bottom. The German MNC has the
policy of providing transport facility to all senior executives (22) of the
company because the manufacturing plant at Greater Noida was more than 10 kms
outside Delhi where most of the executives were staying.

allowance.)
c)
Insurance cost: 1 per cent of the cost of the car.
The useful life for the cars is assumed to be five
years after which they can be sold at 20 per cent salvage value. All the cars
fall under the same block of depreciation @ 25 per cent using written down
method of depreciation. The company will have to borrow to finance the purchase
from a bank with interest at 14 per cent repayable in five annual equal
instalments payable at the end of the year.
Option 2 : ORIX, The fleet management company has
offered the 22 cars of the same make at lease for the period of five years. The
monthly lease rentals for the cars are as follows (assuming that the total of
monthly lease rentals for the whole year are paid at the end of each year.

Under this lease agreement the
leasing company, ORIX will pay for the fuel, maintenance and driver expenses
for all the cars. The lessor will claim the depreciation on the cars and the
lessee will claim the lease rentals against the taxable income. BYR India Ltd
will have to hire fulltime supervisor (at monthly salary of Rs. 15,000 per
month) to manage the fleet of cars hired on lease. The company will have to
bear additional miscellaneous expense of Rs. 5,000 per month for providing him the
PC, mobioe phone and so on.
The company’s effective tax rate is 40 per cent and
its cost of capital is 15 per cent. Analyse the financial viability of the two
options. Which option would you recommend? Why?
