The Competitor: Mitsubishi Estate Group · They offered WD 2450 acres in exchange for WD’s construction of Disneyland · The two companies ended up with no agreement. · OL accepted the conditions knowing that it would be hard for them to operate profitably Mijia Zuo Yiming Xie Yutong Xiang Xinyue Luo

Success of Tokyo Disneyland · the number of visitors never went below 10 million per year; they peaked in 1998 with 17, 45 million · 75 % of the attendance was from repeated visitors · 70 % of the park’s visitors were from neighbourhoods around Tokyo · 7000 ¥（$59. 31 US）as the estimated average of expenses per visitor Mijia Zuo Yiming Xie Yutong Xiang Xinyue Luo

Issue: New Attractions to Maintain Repeat Customers · Most of customers were repeat customers. However, there was concern that customers would eventually get bored with the existing attractions and facilities, resulting in a severe shortage of customers. · OL received an inquiry from their licenser, the Walt Disney Company, suggesting to build a new entertainment park: the Disney. Sea Park. Mijia Zuo Yiming Xie Yutong Xiang Xinyue Luo

New Project: Disney. Sea Park Initial investment: ￥ 400 billion (US $ 3. 4 billion) OL’s total assets: ￥ 355. 18 billion (US $ 1. 77 billion) Annual EBT: ￥ 28. 32 billion (US $ 0. 24 billion) Major Concerns: how long it would take for the Disney. Sea Park to start generating profits; if the company’s current profit earning capability would be able to sustain the investment period Mijia Zuo Yiming Xie Yutong Xiang Xinyue Luo

Financial Assumptions without the New Project Number of visitors: remain the same Admission fees: increase by 2% annually Operating costs: 67% of sales; Administrative: 7% of sales; Other Expenses: 4% of sales Tax Rate: 43% Mijia Zuo Yiming Xie Yutong Xiang Xinyue Luo

Financial Assumptions with the New Project Number of visitors: 30% increase in 2002, 10% increase in 2003 and 2004 Admission fees: 2% increase in the following four years; 15% in 2002; 10% 2003; same in 2004 Operating costs other than depreciation, administrative, other expenses, tax rate: same assumptions Mijia Zuo Yiming Xie Yutong Xiang Xinyue Luo

Projected Income and Cash Flow of the New Project Mijia Zuo Yiming Xie Yutong Xiang Xinyue Luo

Capital Budgeting Techniques ● Net present value (American NPV) ● Internal rate of return (American IRR) ● Average accounting return (AAR) Mijia Zuo Yiming Xie Yutong Xiang Xinyue Luo

Net Present Value Mijia Zuo Yiming Xie Yutong Xiang Xinyue Luo

Net Present Value WACC=5. 65% Mijia Zuo Yiming Xie Yutong Xiang Xinyue Luo

Terminal Value Terminal value represents all future cash flows in an asset valuation model. This allows models to reflect returns that will occur so far in the future that they are nearly impossible to forecast. Terminal value = Cash flow of the fifth year / discount rate Total value= the terminal value+the net operating cash flow(5 th year) =4581. 9 Mijia Zuo Yiming Xie Yutong Xiang Xinyue Luo

Initial Investment Mijia Zuo Yiming Xie Yutong Xiang Xinyue Luo

Net Present Value Together with the initial investment in 2000 and the terminal value, the net cash flow was presented in the table below. It was calculated by adding income after tax with depreciation. A five-year cash flow for the period 2000– 2004 was projected, of which the summary was as follows: Mijia Zuo Yiming Xie Yutong Xiang Xinyue Luo

Net Present Value ● IRR-----8. 55% ● NVP------446. 04 $million Mijia Zuo Yiming Xie Yutong Xiang Xinyue Luo

Average Accounting Return We need 3 steps to calculate AAR: ● step 1: Determining average net income ● step 2: Determining average investment (book value) ● step 3: Determining average accounting return Mijia Zuo Yiming Xie Yutong Xiang Xinyue Luo

Average Accounting Return Step 1: If we assume the project has a useful life of 20 years, based upon our income projection in the cash flow, the average net income over the next five years should be: Mijia Zuo Yiming Xie Yutong Xiang Xinyue Luo

Average Accounting Return Step 2: The average value of the total investment over the five years for OL is the average of the projected fixed assets (book value) of each of the five years: Mijia Zuo Yiming Xie Yutong Xiang Xinyue Luo

Average Accounting Return Step 3: ARR= Mijia Zuo Yiming Xie Yutong Xiang Xinyue Luo

Accept or Reject? ● NPV - Yes 445. 8 Million > 0 ● IRR - Yes 8. 55% > Hurdle Rate 5. 65% ● AAR - No -1. 05% < 0 Mijia Zuo Yiming Xie Yutong Xiang Xinyue Luo

Different Decisions ● NPV and IRR ○ Best approaches established in US ○ CFs are used ○ The time value of money is accounted ● AAR ○ Common method used in Japan ○ No depreciation expense added ○ CFs after operating period are not accounted ○ No salvage value Mijia Zuo Yiming Xie Yutong Xiang Xinyue Luo

A Combined Method ● ACFR = (average cash flow + BV of fixed assets at the end of project) / initial investment ● Considers both cash flow and terminal value of the project ● Result: ACFR = 19. 1% > 0 project Mijia Zuo accept Yiming Xie Yutong Xiang Xinyue Luo

Difference in Corporate Governance ● Maximizing shareholder wealth ● Emphasis on shortterm interests ● Open to change ● Maximizing stakeholder wealth American NPV Mijia Zuo Japanese AAR Yiming Xie ● Emphasis on longterm interests ● Adhere to traditional, not open to change Yutong Xiang Xinyue Luo

Effect on Metric Choice Anglo-American Japanese Maximize shareholders wealth Maximize stakeholders wealth Maximize return of each project Maximize corporate net income Emphasis short-term interest Emphasis long-term interest Focus on cash flow of the project Focus on net income of the company Use NPV Use AAR Use NPV Mijia Zuo Yiming Xie Yutong Xiang Xinyue Luo
