Problem 12-37Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Return on Investment and Economic Value Added Calculations with Varying Assumptions
Â
Knitpix Products is a division of Parker Textiles Inc. During the coming year, it expects to earn income of $310,000 based on sales of $3.45 million. Without any new investments, the division will have average operating assets of $3 million. The division is considering a capital investment project—adding knitting machines to produce gaiters—that requires an additional investment  of
Â
$600,000 and increases net income by $57,500 (sales would increase by $575,000). If made, the investment would increase beginning operating assets by $600,000 and ending operating assets by $400,000. Assume that the actual cost of capital for the company is 7%. (Note: Round all answers to four decimal places.)
Â
Required:
Â
1.      Compute the ROI for the division without the investment.
Â
2.      Compute the margin and turnover ratios without the investment. Show that the product of the margin and turnover ratios equals the ROI computed in Requirement 1.
Â
3.      CONCEPTUAL CONNECTION Compute the ROI for the division with the new invest- ment. Do you think the divisional manager will approve the investment?
Â
4.      CONCEPTUAL CONNECTION Compute the margin and turnover ratios for the division with the new investment. How do these compare with the old ratios?
Â
5.      CONCEPTUAL CONNECTION Compute the EVA of the division with and without the investment. Should the manager decide to make the knitting machine investment?
