LONG-LIVED ASSETS: IMPLICATIONS FOR FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND RATIOS

LONG-LIVED ASSETS: IMPLICATIONS FOR FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND RATIOS Effects of Capitalization Initially when the cost is capitalized

In future periods when the asset is depreciated or amortized

Effects on Financial Statements Noncurrent assets increase. Cash flow from investing activities decreases. Noncurrent assets decrease. Net income decreases. Retained earnings decrease. Equity decreases.

Effects of Expensing When the item is expensed

Effects on Financial Statements Net income decreases by the entire after-tax amount of the cost. No related asset is recorded on the balance sheet and therefore, no depreciation or amortization expense is charged in future periods. Operating cash flow decreases. Expensed costs have no financial statement impact in future years.

Financial Statement Effects of Capitalizing versus Expensing Capitalizing Net income (first year) Higher Net income (future years) Lower Total assets Higher Shareholders’ equity Higher Cash flow from operations activities Higher Cash flow from investing activities Lower Income variability Lower Debt to equity ratio Lower

LONG-LIVED ASSETS: IMPLICATIONS FOR FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND RATIOS

Gross investment in fixed assets Accumulated depreciation Net investment in fixed assets = + Annual depreciation expense Annual depreciation expense Annual depreciation expense

Estimated useful or depreciable life The historical cost of an asset divided by its useful life equals annual depreciation expense under the straight line method. Therefore, the historical cost divided by annual depreciation expense equals the estimated useful life.

Average age of asset

Remaining useful life

Annual depreciation expense times the number of years that the asset has been in use equals accumulated depreciation. Therefore, accumulated depreciation divided by annual depreciation equals the average age of the asset.

The book value of the asset divided by annual depreciation expense equals the number of years the asset has remaining in its useful life.

**Notice that both the numerator and the denominator for the D/A ratio are higher when classifying the lease as a finance lease. Beware of such exam questions. When the numerator and the denominator of any ratio are heading in the same direction (either increasing or decreasing), determine which of the two is changing more in percentage terms. If the percentage change in the numerator is greater than the percentage change in the denominator, the numerator effect will dominate. Firms usually have lower levels of total debt compared to total assets. The increase in both debt and assets by classifying the lease as a finance lease will lead to an increase in the debt to asset ratio because the percentage increase in the numerator is greater.

 Originator of receivables sells financial assets to an SPE.  The originator does not own or hold or expect to receive beneficial interest.  SFAS 140 (before 2008 revision) allowed seller to derecognize the sold assets if transferred assets have been isolated from the transferor and are beyond the reach of bankruptcy, and are financial assets.

 Originator of receivables sells financial assets to an SPE.  Seller is primary beneficiary; absorbs risks and rewards.  Seller maintains some level of control.  Seller is required to consolidate.  Seller’s balance sheet would still show receivables as an asset.  Debt of SPE would appear on seller’s balance sheet.

Amount of the future obligation, based on the plan’s formula, must be estimated in the current period.

Companies typically prefund the DB plans by contributing funds to a pension trust. Regulatory requirements to pre-fund vary by country.

Other postemployment benefits (e.g., retirees’ health care)

Amount of future benefit depends on plan specifications and type of benefit.

Eventual benefits are specified. The amount of the future obligation must be estimated in the current period.

Companies typically do not pre-fund other postemployment benefit obligations.

Type of Benefit

A company’s pension obligation will increase as a result of:  Current service costs.  Interest costs.  Past service costs.  Actuarial losses. A company’s pension obligation will decrease as a result of:  Actuarial gains.  Benefits paid.

Reconciliation of the Pension Obligation: Pension obligation at the beginning of the period + Current service costs + Interest costs + Past service costs + Actuarial losses – Actuarial gains – Benefits paid Pension obligation at the end of the period The fair value of assets held in the pension trust (plan) will increase as a result of:  A positive actual dollar return earned on plan assets; and  Contributions made by the employer to the plan. The fair value of plan assets will decrease as a result of:  Benefits paid to employees. Reconciliation of the Fair Value of Plan Assets: Fair value of plan assets at the beginning of the period + Actual return on plan assets + Contributions made by the employer to the plan  Benefits paid to employees Fair value of plan assets at the end of the period Balance Sheet Presentation of Defined Benefit Pension Plans Funded status = Pension obligation  Fair value of plan assets  

If Pension obligation > Fair value of plan assets: Plan is underfunded  Positive funded status  Net pension liability. If Pension obligation < Fair value of plan assets: Plan is overfunded Negative funded status  Net pension asset.

Calculating Periodic Pension Cost Priodic pension cost = Ending funded status  Beginning funded status + Employer contributions

Periodic pension cost = Current service costs + Interest costs + Past service costs + Actuarial losses  Actuarial gains  Actual return on plan assets

Under the corridor method, if the net cumulative amount of unrecognized actuarial gains and losses at the beginning of the reporting period exceeds 10% of the greater of (1) the defined benefit obligation or (2) the fair value of plan assets, then the excess is amortized over the expected average remaining working lives of the employees participating in the plan and included as a component of periodic pension expense on the P&L.

Pension cost and pension expense will both typically be lower because of lower opening obligation and lower service costs

Higher rate of compensation increase

Higher obligation

Higher service and interest costs will increase periodic pension cost and pension expense.

Higher expected return on plan assets

No effect, because fair value of plan assets are used on balance sheet

or

CF = (S – C) (1 – t) + tD

Terminal year after-tax non-operating cash flow (TNOCF): TNOCF = SalT + NWCInv – t(SalT – BVT) Replacement Project Investment outlays: Initial investment for a replacement project = FCInv + NWCInv – Sal0 + t(Sal0 – BV0) Annual after-tax operating cash flow: CF = (S – C) (1 – t) + tD Terminal year after-tax non-operating cash flow: TNOCF = SalT + NWCInv – t(SalT – BT) Mutually Exclusive Projects with Unequal Lives 

Least Common Multiple of Lives Approach In this approach, both projects are repeated until their ‘chains’ extend over the same time horizon. Given equal time horizons, the NPVs of the two project chains are compared and the project with the higher chain NPV is chosen.



Equivalent Annual Annuity Approach (EAA) This approach calculates the annuity payment (equal annual payment) over the project’s life that is equivalent in present value (PV) to the project’s NPV. The project with the higher EAA is chosen.

Major Differences of Stock versus Asset Purchases

Approval

Stock Purchase Target shareholders receive compensation in exchange for their shares. Shareholder approval required.

Tax: Corporate

No corporate-level taxes.

Payment

Tax: Shareholder Target company’s shareholders are taxed on their capital gain. Liabilities Acquirer assumes the target’s liabilities.

Asset Purchase Payment is made to the selling company rather than directly to shareholders. Shareholder approval might not be required. Target company pays taxes on any capital gains. No direct tax consequence for target company’s shareholders. Acquirer generally avoids the assumption of liabilities.

PH = Price at the end of the holding period P0 = Price at the beginning of the period DH = Dividend Required Return 



The difference between an asset’s expected return and its required return is known as expected alpha, ex ante alpha or expected abnormal return. o Expected alpha = Expected return – Required return The difference between the actual (realized) return on an asset and its required return is known as realized alpha or ex post alpha. o Realized alpha = Actual HPR – Required return for the period

When the investor’s estimate of intrinsic value (V0) is different from the current market price (P0), the investor’s expected return has two components: 1. 2.

The required return (rT) earned on the asset’s current market price; and The return from convergence of price to value [(V0 – P0)/P0].

Intrinsic Value =

Required return – Expected dividend growth rate

V0 =

Equity Risk Premium The required rate of return on a particular stock can be computed using either of the following two approaches. Both these approaches require the equity risk premium to be estimated first. 1.

Required return on share i = Current expected risk-free return + ßi(Equity risk premium) 

2.



A beta greater (lower) than 1 indicates that the security has greater-than-average (lower-thanaverage) systematic risk.

Required return on share i = Current expected risk-free return + Equity risk premium ± Other risk premia/discounts appropriate for i 

This method of estimating the required return is known as the build-up method. It is discussed later in the reading and is primarily used for valuations of private businesses.

PRIVATE REAL ESTATE INVESTMENTS Net Operating Income Rental income at full occupancy + Other income (such as parking) = Potential gross income (PGI)  Vacancy and collection loss = Effective gross income (EGI)  Operating expenses (OE) = Net operating income (NOI) The Direct Capitalization Method Cap rate = Discount rate – Growth rate The cap rate can be defined as the current yield on an investment:

Capitalization rate =

NOI1 Value

Rearranging the above equation, we can estimate the value of a property by dividing its firstyear NOI by the cap rate. Value =

NOI1 Cap rate

An estimate of the appropriate cap rate for a property can be obtained from the selling price of similar or comparable properties. Cap rate =

NOI Sale price of comparable property

The cap rate derived by dividing rent by recent sales prices of comparables is known as the all risks yield (ARY). The value of a property is then calculated as:

Market value =

F(0,T) = Forward price of a forward contract that expires at time T.

F and S are quoted in terms of DC/FC rDC = Domestic currency interest rate rFC = Foreign currency interest rate T = Length of the contract in years. Remember to use a 365-day year if maturity is given in days. If interest rates are assumed to be continuously compounded, then the no-arbitrage futures price is calculated as: f0(T) = S0 × e(r

cDC – rcFC)×T

rc represents the continuously compounded risk-free rate.

Imperfect Forecasts of Alpha Values Actual (realized) alpha: RRM To measure the forecasting accuracy of the analyst, we can regress alpha forecasts (f) on realized alpha (). f  aa For simplicity, we assume that a and a equal 0 and 1 respectively. Given that forecast errors () are uncorrelated with true alpha () i.e., Cov, equals 0, the variance of the forecast is given as:

f   +  We can evaluate the quality of the analyst’s forecasts by calculating the coefficient of determination of the regression described above. 
