Prepare Capital Budgeting For A Proposed Takeover
Question
TNA site: www.tnasolutions.com
Following advice from an agent in Vietnam TNA have an opportunity to purchase a majority interest in a small local firm that manufactures equipment for the food processing and packaging industry. This firm has a factory in a convenient location close to the ports and transport routes and a loyal and hardworking workforce. Unfortunately the factory has outdated equipment and a relatively high cost structure and the firm is increasingly falling behind its competitors. However the Agent’s advice may provide an opportunity for TNA to establish a production facility in the heart of Asia without the problems and lead time involved in developing a Greenfield facility.
Following further enquiries TNA management determine that they could complete the takeover of the Vietnamese company that owns the factory for an investment of $A 10 million, $A 6 million of which would be to purchase 100% of the Vietnamese company and $A 4 million in the form of capital equipment to replace some of the aging factory infrastructure.
If TNA proceed with the takeover they estimate that they can be operational by mid 2011. They further consider that the existing contracts from the Vietnamese company will provide underpinning revenue equivalent to A$ 200,000 per month at current exchange rates. They are also confident of rapidly gaining additional food processing and packaging business because of the superiority of their new equipment. Their estimates of the value of sales growth per annum in the Vietnamese market are shown in the following table.

Total costs are assumed to 60% of revenue in the first year and 50% of revenue for subsequent years. The exchange rate at September 20 2010 is 18,419 Vietnamese Dong per Australian dollar and it is assumed that the inflation rate will be 4% higher in Vietnam than Australia for the first year, 3% p.a. higher for the next two years and 2% higher in each of the following three years. Based on the information provided and further research answer the following questions:
Q1. The management of TNA are undecided about whether to borrow the loan funds that they need in Australia or in Vietnam. Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of each option.
Q2. Carry out a capital budget evaluation of the proposed takeover assuming a 5 year timeframe and a residual value of A$200,000 for the capital equipment at the end of the 5 years. Assume that TNA use a weighted average cost of capital of 10% in their financial evaluations. Does the takeover represent a good investment for TNA based on your evaluation? What would be the situation if the investment required was A$ 12 million?
Summary
The question belongs to Finance and it discusses about preparing a capital budget evaluation of a proposed takeover by TNA and whether or not to borrow loan funds that they need in Australia or in Vietnam.

I was badly stuck with an argumentative essay writing assignment when I started searching for help on the net. I never thought that I will get any sort of specialized help for the Australian universities and when HwA promised to deliver that, I thought why not? Then I chatted with the expert and I got to know that she was also from the same university as I am in. It was kind of cool as she knew my syllabus and helped me out by writing and excellent essays which helped me get great grades.

I always found that circuit design assignments are very mind boggling and for that reason I often got low scores in the past. However, one senior of mine suggested that I take help from HwA as he got much benefit from them. I was a bit sceptical to be honest, at the beginning but eventually when I trusted them with one assignment, the feedback was brilliant. My grades spiked up and since then I take their help on a regular basis.

When I was assigned the case study analysis of integumentary system patient I had no clue as to where to reach out for help. Luckily I bumped into HwA and was astonished to find that they have specific integumentary system related section.

Chemical engineering problems often used to confuse me. I was searching for some experts who can genuinely help with such solutions. I always loved Chemistry but Chemical Engineering was something completely different. I took help from TheReliableTutor on several occasions and so far they have delivered the reports on time.
Sharon Robinson Student
I had a research assignment where I needed to write a report on the local markets of Singapore. It was difficult getting help online as most of these assignment help services are located abroad somewhere in USA or UK. I was happy to see that HwA has tutors from Singapore itself and they dedicatedly cater to students like us, who are from or studying in Singapore
