Multinational Capital Budgeting 1
ANSWER: (See spreadsheet attached.) The spreadsheet shows that an annual depreciation of 5
percent of the Thai baht will result in a positive NPV of $5,620,315. Since this is a worst case
scenario, Blades should still establish a subsidiary in Thailand (without renewing its agreement with
Entertainment Products) even if it expects the baht to depreciate by 5 percent annually.

Solution to Supplemental Case: North Star Company
a. The analysis based on total parent financing is shown below using the somewhat stable exchange rate
scenario (in 1,000s):
0123456
S$ Cash Flows (excluding
Applying the same procedure from the previous table, the NPV for each exchange rate scenario is:
Exchange Rate Scenario Probability NPV
I. Somewhat stable S$ 60% –$4,878,580
II. Weak S$ 30% –$6,693,440
III. Strong S$ 10% –$ 105,387
The analysis based on partial financing by the subsidiary is shown below using the somewhat stable
exchange rate scenario.
(Cash amounts in thousands)
0123456
S$ Cash Flows (excluding
S$ interest payments) S$8,000 S$10,000 S$14,000 S$16,000 S$16,000 S$16,000

S$ Cash Flows (after accounting
for interest payments) S$6,400 S$8,400 S$12,400 S$14,400 S$14,400 S$14,400
S$ Cash Flows to be
Applying the same procedure from the previous table, the NPV for each exchange rate scenario is:
Exchange Rate Scenario Probability NPV
I. Somewhat stable S$ 60% $2,086,997
II. Weak S$ 30% $649,510
III. Strong S$ 10% $5,766,642
b. The parent’s required rate of return may increase if the borrowed funds by the subsidiary creates a
higher degree of financial leverage for the MNC as a whole, which could increase the risk perception of
the MNC. If so, the discount rate used should reflect the higher required rate of return.
c. When using a 20 percent withholding tax instead of a 10 percent withholding tax, the results change
as follows (based on partial financing by the subsidiary):
Exchange Rate Scenario Probability NPV
I. Somewhat stable S$ 60% $1,139,090
II. Weak S$ 30% –$196,292
III. Strong S$ 10% $4,599,202
The results suggest that with a 20 percent withholding tax, there is a 70 percent chance that the
subsidiary will still generate a positive NPV. The potential negative NPV in the event of a weak S$ is
not as pronounced as the positive NPVs if either of the other events occur. Most managers would
likely still recommend accepting the project under these circumstances.

d. The estimate of net cash flows could be revised, which would result in a lower NPV for each
exchange rate scenario. The accept/reject decision would be based on the overall distribution of
possible NPVs.
e. As of the end of Year 2, the present value of forgone cash flows for the following 4 years (including
the forgone salvage value at the end of Year 6) is $13,203,674. Therefore, North Star should receive
at least this amount in order to divest the subsidiary as of the end of Year 2.
Small Business Dilemma
Multinational Capital Budgeting by the Sports Exports Company
1. Describe the capital budgeting steps that would be necessary to determine whether this proposed
project is feasible, as related to this specific situation.
ANSWER: Jim would need to estimate the amount of footballs that would be sold to the distributor
in Mexico each month. The revenue to be received would be equal to the number of footballs sold
2. Explain why there is uncertainty surrounding the cash flows of this project.
ANSWER: First, the number of footballs to be sold is very uncertain. The firm is attempting to sell a
product in a country where the product has not been popular. The quantity of footballs demanded
