Problem Solving:
Problem 1: Determine the Present Value of the following, given that the interest rate is 12%:
Year 0 Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4 Year 5
Case A: Future value of cash -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- P250,000
Case B: Future value of cash ------------- P10,000 P10,000 P10,000 P10,000 P10,000
Case C: Future value of cash P50,000 P50,000 P50,000 P50,000 P50,000
Case D: Future value of cash ------------- P25,000 P60,000 P30,000 P30,000 P30,000

Problem 2: On January 1, 2018, AyeBeeCee Corporation acquired an equipment for cash of P250,000, in
addition the corporation also incurred the following: Shipping – P5,000, Installation Cost – 25,000, Insurance
during the delivery – P10,000. The equipment is estimated to have a useful life of 5 years with a scrap value of
P40,000.
Prepare the Depreciation Table for the equipment assuming the depreciation method used is:
a) Sum of Years Digit [Date – Fraction – Depreciation – Accumulated Depreciation – Book Value]
b) Double Declining Balance [Date – Depreciation – Accumulated Depreciation – Book Value]
Problem 3: The Moore Corporation is considering the acquisition of a new machine. The machine can be
purchased for P90,000, it will cost P6,000 to transport to Moore’s plant and P9,000 to install. It is estimated that
the machine will last 10 years, and it is expected to have an estimated salvage value of P5,000. Over its 10-
year life, the machine is expected to produce 2,000 units per year with a selling price of P500 and combined
materials and labor costs of P450 per unit. Because of the expected increase in production, additional P3,000
cash will be invested to finance the additional production with a corresponding increase in current liabilities of
P1,500. The machine will be depreciated over a 10-year useful life using SYD. The Income tax rate is 30%.
Required: Determine the following cash flow 1) Initial, 2) at the end of the Third Year and 3) Terminal.

1) What is the net cash outflow at the beginning of the first year that Moore Corporation should use in a capital
budgeting analysis?
2) What is the net cash flow for the third year that Moore Corporation should use in a capital budgeting analysis?
3) What is the net cash flow for the tenth year of the project that Moore Corporation should use in a capital
budgeting analysis?
