Purchase Equipment (Capex)
Initial development cost
Increase in net working capital.
Incremental revenues
Incremental cost
Taxes
Changes in net working capital.
Terminal cash flows

Initial Investment: Capex
New Investment in Fixed Assets attributed to the Project:
Capex and depreciation implications:
Capex: New fixed assets related to the project (i.e. building, equipment, vehicles, etc.)
The capex will impact the income statement due to the depreciation expenses attributed to the asset.

Annual Depreciation Expense = Total value

Working Capital
Net Working Capital (NWK):
Any increases in net working capital represent an investment that reduces the cash available to the firm and so reduces free cash flow.
NWK = Current Assets – Current Liabilities = Cash + Inventory – Payables
At the end of the period, we are assuming the liquidation of the company, we will collect all the A/R, sell the remaining inventory and pay all our account payables.

Terminal Cash Flow
Assuming a straight line depreciation method, the terminal value of the Capex would be:
In case the market value is lower than the book value, then we would have a loss.

Incremental Free Cash Flow
Free cash flow:
The incremental effect of a project on a firm’s available cash.
Considering also the impact of the Capital Expenditures and Depreciation expenses.
The depreciation expense is not a cash outflow, therefore we adjust the incremental Income to reflect the fact that the depreciation expense by adding back the depreciation expense.
The incremental free cash flows would then be:

Analyzing the Project
Sensitivity Analysis:
A capital budgeting tool that determines how the NPV varies as a single underlying assumption is changed.
In our example, what would happen if we assume the volumes of sales remain flat along the horizon period, assuming all the other variables remain unchanged:

14,4
Sensitivity Analysis
If sales volumes remain flat, NPV would be negative, then the project should be rejected.

Analyzing the Project
Scenario Analysis:
A capital budgeting tool that determines how the NPV varies as a number of the underlying assumptions are changed simultaneously.
DATA INPUT CHANGES
Investment increment: 50% to Building; 50% to Equipment.

Scenario Analysis
Based on the Worst case scenario assumptions, the NPV of the project would be negative, then the project should be rejected.
