6 Learning Objectives At the end of this session, you will: be familiar with basic finance skills (present value, future value, discount rates and time value of money); quantify the decision-making process; add practical risk management applications to your repertoire. Time Value of Money Present Value, Discount Rate, Incremental Cash Flow Methods of Evaluating Capital Investment Projects Payback, ARR, IRR, BCR, NPV Applications to a Simple Investment Decision Net Cash Flow Case Study Risk Financing Decision (Compare Program Options); Safety Equipment Investment Page 6

7 Finance in Risk Management Let s talk money Company Financial Objectives What are they? Improve cash flow? Increase revenue? Take advantage of opportunities What risks are involved? Risk Management Departmental Objectives What are my Key Performance Indicators? As an Enterprise Risk Manager, how do I measure success? Application of Finance principles to Enterprise Risk Management Measuring Key Performance Indicators Measuring Capital Investment Projects or other financial opportunities What does it tell us? Page 7

8 Financial Decisions Fair comparisons of benefits and costs requires putting everything in present value (discounting) Discounting requires an interest rate time is money as long as interest rates are positive For a business the interest rate is the cost of capital and all projects use the same rate Page 8

9 Financial Decisions Compounding A dollar today will be worth more than a dollar tomorrow (FV of a $) $100 PV 1 10% FV = $100(1.1) = $110 $100 PV 2 10% per year FV = $100(1.1) 2 = $121 Page 9

10 Financial Decisions Discounting A dollar tomorrow is worth less than a dollar today. PV = $110 / (1.1) = $ % FV = $110 PV= $121/ ( 1.1) 2 = $ % FV = $121 Page 10

11 Financial Decisions Typical Project...estimate future cash flows (CF) relative to initial investment $CF1 $CF2 $CF3... $CFN <$ Initial Investment> Page 11

12 Financial Decisions Present value (discounting) requires a benchmark interest rate (discount rate) Discount rate (%) is based on the cost of raising money. The cost of capital is the weighted average of sources of financing (CFO sets this rate) All projects get same cost of capital unless we adjust for risk differences Page 12

13 Decision Criteria 1. Payback (Years) 2. Accounting Rate of Return (ARR) 3. Net Present Value (NPV) 4. Profitability Index (Present Value Benefit/ Present Value Costs) 5. Internal Rate of Return (IRR) Page 13

14 Decision Criteria 1. Payback Payback amount of time until breakeven Example: How long will it take to get $100,000 back? <$100,000> Investment Benefit: Net After-tax Cash Flow Yr. 1 Yr. 2 Yr. 3 Yr. 4 10,000 40,000 30,000 50,000 90,000 left 50,000 left 20,000 left 20,000/50,000 =.4 Payback = 3.4 years Page 14

15 Pro: Decision Criteria Payback Pro and Con Easy to use and interpret Reflects liquidity (cash back) and minimizes risk of unknown future Con: Doesn t use time value of money (we could adjust for this) Doesn t consider cash flow after payback Bias against growth projects Page 15

16 Criteria for a Good Decision 2. Average Rate of Return Average Rate of Return (ARR) average operating profit over the life of the project divided by the initial investment. Example: Five year investment with straight line depreciation Initial Investment Average Annual Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, and Depreciation (EBITDA) Average Annual Depreciation $100,000 $40,000 $20,000 ARR = ($40,000 - $20,000) / $100,000 = 20% Page 16

17 Decision Criteria Average Rate of Return (ARR) Pro and Con Pro: Con: Simple to use This is a crude rate of return estimate Doesn t use time value of money Doesn t use cash flow and adjustments for non-cash charges or taxes Doesn t have a good benchmark for comparisons Page 17

18 Decision Criteria 3. Net Present Value Net Present Value (NPV) Present value of benefits minus present value of costs. NPV must be positive for a good decision. Example: Initial investment of $100,000 generates four years of estimated cash flows. Discount rate is assumed to be 10%. Good decision? Yr. 1 Yr. 2 Yr. 3 Yr. 4 Investment <$100,000> Benefit: Net Cash Flow $10,000 $40,000 $30,000 $50,000 Page 18

19 Decision Criteria Net Present Value Example Find the Present Value of Future Cash Flows using a 10% discount rate and subtract Present Value of Costs Yr. 1 Yr. 2 Yr. 3 Yr. 4 Investment <$100,000> Benefit: Net Cash Flow $10,000 $40,000 $30,000 $50,000 Discount 10% Present Value Cash Flow $9,091 $33,056 $22,539 $34,150 Total $98, NPV = $98, $100,000 = -$1,164 Not a good investment Page 19

20 Pro: Decision Criteria Net Present Value (NPV) Pro and Con NPV uses time value of money NPV uses the cost of capital (assumes reinvestment is at the firm s cost of capital) NPV is in dollars and is easy to interpret Con: If there is capital rationing or mutually exclusive projects the size of the investment must be taken into account. We need a benefit per dollar spent measure. Page 20

21 Decision Criteria 4. Internal Rate of Return PV Costs = CF 1 /(1+IRR) 1 +CF 2 / (1+IRR) CF N / (1+IRR) N Solve for IRR...use a computer or calculator The IRR > Cost of Capital for a good project Page 21

22 Decision Criteria Internal Rate of Return Example Example: Use Data from the NPV Calculation Yr. 1 Yr. 2 Yr. 3 Yr. 4 Investment Cost <$100,000> Benefit: Net Cash Flow $10,000 $40,000 $30,000 $50, ,000 = 10,000 / (1+X) + 40,000 / (1+X) ,000 / (1+X) ,000 / (1+X) 4 Solve for X =.0955 = 9.55% = IRR IRR < 10% Cost of Capital Not a good investment Page 22

23 Decision Criteria Internal Rate of Return Pro and Con Pro: Easy to interpret people like % comparisons Con: Difficult to calculate without a computer/calculator Assumes cash flows can be reinvested at the same IRR unrealistic Multiple IRRs occur if cash flows change signs. Page 23

24 Decision Criteria 5. Profitability Index (benefit-cost ratio) Profitability Index = Benefit-to-Cost Ratio = the ratio of the present value of benefits to the present value of costs. A ratio greater than one is acceptable (Benefits>Costs). If the benefit-to-cost ratio is one the NPV = 0. The benefit to cost ratio offers a bang for the buck measure Page 24

25 Decision Criteria Profitability Index - Example Example: Use the same data we used for the NPV Calculation Yr. 1 Yr. 2 Yr. 3 Yr. 4 Investment < $100,000> Benefit: Net $10,000 $40,000 $30,000 $50,000 Cash Flow Discount % Present Value $9,091 $33,056 $22,539 $34,150 Total PV $98, Profitability Index = $98,836 / $100,000 =.98936< 1 Not a good project Page 25

26 Decision Criteria Profitability Index Pro and Con Pro: Profitability Index is the preferred method for choosing between mutually exclusive projects and for capital rationing... biggest bang for the buck. Con: Dollar amounts reveal dollar value added while ratios do not offer information on magnitudes. Page 26

27 Incremental Costs and Benefits Key Points Incremental costs and benefits added costs and benefits beyond what would have they would have been without the decision or investment. Sunk Costs costs paid whether the project is taken or not. Sunk costs are irrelevant to the decision and are not included in costs. Opportunity costs - imputed costs for assets that are already owned but have alternative uses. Opportunity costs are included in cash flows. Page 27

28 Incremental Costs and Benefits Key Points Purchase of depreciable assets up-front costs for long-term assets are included in the initial cost but a depreciation schedule is used to calculate depreciation for tax purposes. We deduct depreciation from beforetax income but add it back to get net cash flow. Financing Costs costs of financing are not included in the cash flows. The financing cost is captured in the firm s discount rate (cost of capital) used in the time value calculations. Page 28

29 Incremental Costs and Benefits Key Points Benefits can occur either from increased revenues or from lower costs. Lowering costs is more likely in risk management. A $ saved is a $ earned. Likely benefits for risk managers include the following. o reduced premiums o reduction in loss payments o tax reductions Page 29

30 Comprehensive Example Saxon Healthcare Mini-Case Overview - This mini-case first illustrates the construction of costs and benefits from an investment in loss control. Next, the decision criteria are calculated and applied to support a decision. Jane, the risk manager of Saxon Healthcare Inc. is considering installation of a new generation software system that provides state-of-the art processing of patient information, medical records, and patient billing. The new system requires investment in a new software, new hardware, and employee training. Page 30

31 Comprehensive Example Saxon paid $10,000 to a consulting firm for a feasibility study and cost estimates. The new software and hardware for the system will cost $200,000 to include installation. Another $30,000 will be required for initial training. The new system has a four year life for depreciation purposes with no salvage value. Jane will use straight line depreciation for the system. There will be some information technology maintenance involved but Saxon has a skilled IT staff that can perform this job. Currently, the IT staff works for $40 per hour and there will be a projected 100 hours per year of maintenance linked to the new system. Page 31

32 Comprehensive Example Saxon is a for-profit organization and the appropriate tax rate is 34%. Jane doesn t think there is any salvage value for existing software or hardware systems that are to be replaced. The existing hardware has already been fully depreciated. Consultants estimate that the new system will lower errors and omissions by 15% per year. Jane s carrier has some experience with other healthcare providers using the new system and quoted a reduction in premiums of $100,000 per year over the next four years if the experience rating is in line with the expected reduction in errors and omissions. Page 32

33 Comprehensive Example Jane knows the CFO has a 10% cost of capital requirement for capital budgeting projects like hers. She has to formulate her analysis and decide whether or not to bring it to the capital budgeting committee for approval. Jane wants to consider a wide range of decision criteria to support her analysis. She wants to construct the payback, ARR, NPV, IRR and Benefit to Cost Ratio. Page 33

34 Comprehensive Example Jane s Worksheet Depreciation Schedule: $200,000 over 4 years = $50,000 per year Page 34
