Questions: 1. Are the financial statements in Exhibit 3.7 consistent with V. Dourtan assumptions in Exhibit 3.1? 2. What’s is the most relevant valuation model, APV or Present Value? 3. How are multi-currency cash flows, currency risk and political risk being taken into account in our valuation model? 4. What is the relevant cost of capital for Jersey? For R.T. Nakit? Can they be different? Why? 5. What is the Dinar (Pound) value of the joint venture R.T. Nakit (jersey)? What are the project’s value drivers? 1- The data presented on exhibit 3.7 is, indeed following some of the assumptions stated on exhibit 3.1: minimum cash level is 10% of total assets, which was proved by dividing cash by total assets, …show more content…
The spread thus reflects pretty well the difference perceived by the market between the two countries in terms of political risk. 4-The cost of capital obtained for Jersey is 20.17% and the cost of capital for Prince is 22.84%. All the computations elaborated in order to answer this question can be seen on Appendix 1 and 2. These two are different since both companies are facing different levels and types of risk. Although both companies are working together through a joint-venture, risks associated with this project differ for both. Jersey will be investing in a company amidst Mediterranean Rim countries, where it never invested before, and will be facing uncertainty and country-specific risk, such as political or currency risk. Prince will be entering in two new markets: not only the company will start producing garments, where before it only manufactured fabric, but also it will start exporting to Europe, facing an entirely new environment, with new competitors, new currency and new challenges. 5- The approach used to calculate the value of the Joint Venture was a DCF using the APV method. Since the two companies, Jersey and Prince, have distinct characteristics and costs of capital, they value the project differently. For Prince, the Joint Venture has a total

Central Embroidery needs to purchase a new monogram machine and is considering two options. The first machine costs $100,000 and is expected to last 5 years, and the second machine costs $160,000 and is expected to last 8 years. Assume that the opportunity cost of capital is 8 percent. Which machine should Central Embroidery purchase?
should be the cost of capital and would like to determine it. You will assist in the process of
This is an important valuation method used to estimate the desirability of an investment opportunity. Discounted cash flow (DCF) analysis uses future free cash flow projections and discounts them (using the weighted average cost of capital) to arrive at a present value. The calculated present value is then used to evaluate the potential for investment. For this project, the DCF analysis will be used to evaluate the intrinsic value of the CVS health corporation (“DCF,” n.d.).

* We assume the cost of capital to be a stated annual rate to facilitate calculations;
There is a great chance that the deal would take place. Even though the cash flows from the Joint Venture will be roughly the same for both Jersey and Prince, except for the assistance fee, the fact that they are subject to different Cost of Capital leads to a big difference in their valuation for the joint venture. As Prince is a family-owned company, Mr. Nakit’s cost of capital is significantly higher than that of Jersey, which is a well-diversified company, which means the 50% of the joint venture would be worth more for Jersey than for Prince. After our valuation, we think Prince will accept for anything above 3.105 million dinars. And Jersey would be willing to pay
