What is Capital Infusion Analysis?

Capital infusion analysis is a financial assessment that evaluates the potential returns on investments made in a business or project. This analysis helps investors understand how their initial and additional investments can grow over time, considering various factors such as expected returns, tax implications, and discount rates.

How to Use the Capital Infusion Analysis Calculator?

The calculator requires the following inputs:

  1. Initial Investment: The amount of money initially invested in the project or business.
  2. Expected Return (%): The anticipated annual return on the investment expressed as a percentage.
  3. Investment Period (years): The duration for which the investment will be held.
  4. Projected Additional Investments: Any additional amounts that will be invested during the investment period.
  5. Tax Rate (%): The percentage of the returns that will be paid as tax.
  6. Discount Rate (%): The rate used to discount future cash flows to their present value.

Key Formulas

  1. Total Investment: [ §§ \text{Total Investment} = \text{Initial Investment} + (\text{Projected Additional Investments} \times \text{Investment Period}) §§

  2. Total Return: [ §§ \text{Total Return} = \text{Total Investment} \times (1 + \text{Expected Return})^{\text{Investment Period}} §§

  3. Net Return after Tax: [ §§ \text{Net Return} = \text{Total Return} \times (1 - \text{Tax Rate}) §§

  4. Discounted Value: [ §§ \text{Discounted Value} = \frac{\text{Net Return}}{(1 + \text{Discount Rate})^{\text{Investment Period}}} §§

Example Calculation

Let’s say you have the following inputs:

  • Initial Investment: $10,000
  • Expected Return: 5%
  • Investment Period: 10 years
  • Projected Additional Investments: $2,000
  • Tax Rate: 20%
  • Discount Rate: 3%

Using the formulas:

  1. Total Investment: [ §§ \text{Total Investment} = 10,000 + (2,000 \times 10) = 30,000 §§ ]

  2. Total Return: [ §§ \text{Total Return} = 30,000 \times (1 + 0.05)^{10} \approx 48,877.57 §§ ]

  3. Net Return after Tax: [ §§ \text{Net Return} = 48,877.57 \times (1 - 0.20) \approx 39,101.06 §§ ]

  4. Discounted Value: [ §§ \text{Discounted Value} = \frac{39,101.06}{(1 + 0.03)^{10}} \approx 29,000.00 §§ ]
