ROI - Definition
• For a given use of money in an enterprise, the ROI
(return on investment) is how much "return," usually
profit or cost saving, results. An ROI calculation is
sometimes used along with other approaches to
develop a business case for a given proposal.
3
Current IT Investment Climate
• Three years of declining corporate profits and
shrinking capital expenditure budgets
• Focus on back to basics approach to capex,
requiring a solid business case before
technology purchase is approved
• Greater involvement from business decision
makers who are asking tougher questions
• Focusing capex on only mission critical projects
(“need to have” vs “nice to have”)
• Less likely to invest in an emerging technology
2000 – 45% of enterprises said they would try an emerging technology
2001 – only 32% said they would try an emerging technology

What the Analysts Are Saying About
CNIC
“End-users have told us again and again that identifying the bottom-line
benefit when evaluating new technologies is a priority given today’s soft
economic climate. Effective ROI tools can serve as a key element to the
sales process because the offer the means for customers to measure the
actual long-term value of new technologies like IP Communications.
Cisco’s Converged Network Investment Calculator (CNIC) is
an elegant response that can play a very meaningful role in
persuading a customer to invest in a new Cisco technology.”
Ken Presti
IDC
“The most common complaints customers have about ROI calculators
are that they are too
Optimistic. Cisco Converged Network Investment Calculator (CNIC)
addresses the potential for overly
Optimistic ROI calculations by letting users enter in their own
assumptions –from productivity gains to wiring drop
Cost estimates. Building useful ROI tools is difficult. They have to be
detailed enough to yield meaningful results that are tailored
To each customers unique situation, yet simple enough to make it
usable. CNIC is a comprehensive calculator that considers
very detailed
Aspects of the real-world costs of IP Telephony.”

What about Soft Benefits?
• Improving End User Productivity
Applications like Unified Messaging increase
the productivity of the end user. CNIC limits
the soft benefits because, while they definitely
occur, CFO/CIO’s typically only want to
measure quantifiable benefits

Overview of Key Concepts
Session Number
Presentation_ID

20
Key Concepts – Costs & Benefits
• Costs include any expenditure for equipment,
services or network management
• Benefits include cost savings, avoided costs,
productivity enhancements, improvements in
customer service, enhanced customer morale
• CNIC attempts to provide a framework to
capture all of the relevant costs and benefits
that are associated with purchasing a Cisco
technology
21
Key Concepts – Hard and Soft Costs
• Hard costs include areas like equipment,
maintenance and administration. They can be easily
quantified and there is a little doubt that they are real.
• Soft costs include areas like productivity and
customer service. These are often the greatest
drivers IT projects, but are at times fuzzy and difficult
to quantify. Customers are often reluctant to include
soft costs in an ROI analysis
22
Key Concepts – Length of ROI Analysis
• The length of time of the ROI analysis. Ranging
from 1-5 years.
• It is recommended that the analysis be a
minimum of 3 years long to accurately capture
the true financial costs and benefits.
• The longer the analysis length the more likely
that ongoing cost reductions will offset initial
technology acquisition costs.
23
Key Concepts - WACC
• Weighed Average Cost of Capital---The "cost" or "interest" a
company pays for its investment funds. Commonly referred to
as a "hurdle rate", it also represents the "minimum expected
returns" a company demands of its investments (much the
same as a bank would demand interest for loaning money to
purchase a house). The weighted average cost of capital
(WACC) is usually determined by the customer's Finance
department.
• Generally speaking, a higher WACC is indicative of industries or
companies which either have many valuable opportunity's
competing for investment funds, or higher expectations for
benefits derived from making an investment.
• CNIC uses a default of 10%
24
Key Concepts – Marginal Tax Rate
• For capital equipment where the useful life is in excess of oneyear, firms cannot charge its cost against income for tax
purposes. Hence, firms need to depreciate the capital
equipment, based on a depreciation schedule. Since
depreciation is a non-cash expense, it appears in the income
statement and impacts the taxes a firm pays in cash. A marginal
corporate tax rate is needed to calculate the income tax liability
for the given period. Once the income tax liability is calculated
for the given period , it is subtracted from the Cash Flow before
taxes to obtain net Cash Flow (after taxes). The tax rate will vary
among companies as well as across countries
25
Key Concepts – Depreciation
• A deduction you are allowed for the wearing
away and expensing over time of assets, such as
office equipment, vehicles, buildings, and
furniture.
• For assets that have an expected useful life of
more than one year, you spread the cost of the
asset over its estimated useful life rather than
deducting the entire cost in the year you place
the asset in service.
• Traditionally PBX’s are depreciated over 5-7
years
26
Key Concepts – Net Present Value (NPV)
• Defined as the present value (PV) of the expected
future cash flow (CFn) of an investment, discounted
at the cost of capital (k), less the cost of the
investment. NPV equals the increase in shareholders'
wealth.
• An NPV greater than 0 indicates that the project
should be undertaken
• NPV Example: 3-Year Analysis, WACC (10%), MTR 0%

27
Key Concepts – Internal Rate of Return (IRR)
• Interest rate that equates the Present Value of the
expected future cash flow (CFn) to the initial
investment outlay, where NPV =0. An IRR value above
the cost of capital (k) provides a satisfactory
investment, with a proposed project having a greater
IRR value being more attractive.

28
Key Concepts – Payback/Breakeven
• The period required to recover the initial investment
of the project. The BE method of evaluating an
investment does not consider all cash flows and
does not discount the cash flow (CFN). This method
may not be appropriate in evaluating an investment
over an extended period of time.

30
Common ROI Pitfalls
1. Burdening the Voice ROI analysis with the complete
cost of the data network upgrade
2. Inputting costs for a PBX that has already been
purchased and paid for
3. Failing to take into consideration productivity gains
4. Not including all relevant costs and benefits
5. Failure to gather information on how a customer
evaluates capital expenditures (WACC, Depreciation
schedule, Marginal Tax Rate)
6. Not understanding the principal drivers of an ROI
analysis and how they impact the final outcome
-Lower Cost of “Network” Ownership
-Enhanced Business Communications
