- You have been tasked with using the FCF model to value Julie’s Jewelry Co. After your initial review, you find that Julie’s has a reported equity beta of 1.6, a debt-to-equity ratio of .5, and a tax rate of 21 percent. In addition, market conditions suggest a risk-free rate of 5 percent and a market risk premium of 9 percent. If Julie’s had FCF last year of $49.0 million and has current debt outstanding of $123 million, find the value of Julie’s equity assuming a 4.8 percent growth rate in FCF. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer in millions rounded to 2 decimal places.)You have been asked by your employers to demonstrate your knowledge in business valuation process, by analyzing the value of Best Group Savings and Loans Company (BGSLC). The company paid a dividend of GH¢ 250,000 this year. The current return to shareholders of companies in the same industry as BGSLC is 12%, although it is expected that an additional risk premium of 2% will be applicable to BGSLC, being a smaller and unquoted company. Compute the expected valuation of BGSLC, if: The current level of dividend is expected to continue into the foreseeable future The dividend is expected to grow at a rate 4% par into foreseeable future The dividend is expected to grow at a 3% rate for three years and 2% afterwardsYou are going to value Lauryn’s Doll Co. using the FCF model. After consulting various sources, you find that Lauryn's has a reported equity beta of 1.4, a debt-to-equity ratio of .5, and a tax rate of 21 percent. Assume a risk-free rate of 4 percent and a market risk premium of 9 percent. Lauryn’s Doll Co. had EBIT last year of $42 million, which is net of a depreciation expense of $4.2 million. In addition, Lauryn's made $6 million in capital expenditures and increased net working capital by $1.0 million. Assume the FCF is expected to grow at a rate of 3 percent into perpetuity. What is the value of the firm? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer in millions rounded to 2 decimal places.)
- Garret Simpson Investments is evaluating a firm (Garp, Inc.) for recommendation to its clients and trying to evaluate the firm's current stock price. The firm is about to offer its shares to the public and had earnings last year of $2.50 a share, which the analysts believe is expected to grow by 20% next year. Similar firms in the industry are currently selling for price-earnings ratios ranging from ten to fifteen times current period earnings. However, these competitor firms are already public entities and have relatively low growth expectations for their earnings. What is your estimate of an appropriate price range for the shares of Garp? Defend your answer.Arden wants to invest in a fashion brand. What discount rate should she use to compute the PV of her expected cash flows from her investment? They have this data: Expected avg annual return on 3 month- 4.1% Expected avg annual return on 30 year- 4.6% Expected avg annual return on other beauty product shares- 7.2% Expected avg annual return on other fashion shares- 13.0%As a finance intern at Pork Products, Jennifer Wainwright’s assignment is to come up with fresh insights concerning the firm’s cost of capital. She decides that this would be a good opportunity to try out the new material on the APT that she learned last semester. She decides that three promising factors would be (a) the return on a broad-based index such as the S&P 500; (b) the level of interest rates, as represented by the yield to maturity on 10-year Treasury bonds; and (c) the price of hogs, which is particularly important to her firm. Her plan is to find the beta of Pork Products against each of these factors by using a multiple regression and to estimate the risk premium associated with each exposure factor. Comment on Jennifer’s choice of factors. Which are most promising with respect to the likely impact on her firm’s cost of capital? Can you suggest improvements to her specification?
- You are valuing Estelle Company, a private firm that manufactures shop tools, and you have identified several comparable firms that are publicly owned from which to calculate an estimated price-to-earnings multiple to use in your valuation. One of the comparable firms, Comp A, has a market value per share of $53.40, earnings per share for last year of $4.20 per share, a dividend for last year that was $1.10 per share, forecast earnings per share for the next year of $7.05, and a dividend that is expected to be unchanged. The forward price-to-earnings multiple for Comp A is: a. 17.2 b. 12.7 c. 9.0 d. 7.6 e.

Both firms have EBIT = €1000 000. Firm U has zero debt and its required rate of return (KsU = 12%). Firm L has €2000 000 debt and pays 10% interest rate.

- Higgs Bassoon Corporation is a custom manufacturer of bassoons and other wind instruments. Its current value of operations, which is also its value of debt plus equity, is estimated to be $200 million. Higgs has $110 million face value, zero coupon debt that is due in 3 years. The risk-free rate is 5%, and the standard deviation of returns for similar companies is 60%. The owners of Higgs Bassoon view their equity investment as an option and would like to know the value of their investment. Using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model, how much is the equity worth? How much is the debt worth today? What is its yield? How much would the equity value and the yield on the debt change if Fethe's management were able to use risk management techniques to reduce its volatility to 45 percent? Can you explain this?K-Life financial services Limited uses risk-adjusted return on capital (RAROC) to measure performance on several aspects.
