Brook Corporation’s free cash flow for the current year (FCF0) was $3.00 million. Its investors require a 13% rate of return on (WACC = 13%). What is the estimated value of operations if investors expect FCF to grow at a constant annual rate of (1) −5%, (2) 0%, (3) 5%, or (4) 10%?
Value of Operations Kendra Enterprises has never paid a dividend. Free cash flow is projected to be $80,000 and $100,000 for the next 2 years, respectively; after the second year, FCF is expected to grow at a constant rate of 8%. The company’s weighted average cost of capital is 12%. What is the terminal, or horizon, value of operations? (Hint: Find the value of all free cash flows beyond Year 2 discounted back to Year 2.) Calculate the value of Kendra’s operations.
Hasting Corporation is interested in acquiring Vandell Corporation. Vandell has 1 million shares outstanding and a target capital structure consisting of 30% debt; its beta is 1.4 (given its target capital structure). Vandell has $10.82 million in debt that trades at par and pays an 8% interest rate. Vandell’s free cash flow (FCFJ is $2 million per year and is expected to grow at a constant rate of 5% a year. Vandell pays a 40% combined federal and state tax rate. The risk-free rate of interest is 5%, and the market risk premium is 6%. Hasting’s First step is to estimate the current intrinsic value of Vandell. What are Vandell’s cost of equity and weighted average cost of capital? What is Vandell’s intrinsic value of operations? [Hint: Use the free cash flow corporate valuation model from Chapter 8.) What is the current intrinsic value of Vandell’s stock?
Assume that an investment of 100,000 produces a net cash flow of 60,000 per year for two years. The discount factor for year 1 is 0.89 and for year 2 is 0.80. The NPV is a. 0 b. 6,800 c. 1,400 d. (4,000)
The Berndt Corporation expects to have sales of 12 million. Costs other than depreciation are expected to be 75% of sales, and depreciation is expected to be 1.5 million. All sales revenues will be collected in cash, and costs other than depreciation must be paid for during the year. Berndts federal-plus-state tax rate is 40%. Berndt has no debt. a. Set up an income statement. What is Berndts expected net income? Its expected net cash flow? b. Suppose Congress changed the tax laws so that Berndts depreciation expenses doubled. No changes in operations occurred. What would happen to reported profit and to net cash flow? c. Now suppose that Congress changed the tax laws such that, instead of doubling Berndts depreciation, it was reduced by 50%. How would profit and net cash flow be affected? d. If this were your company, would you prefer Congress to cause your depreciation expense to be doubled or halved? Why?
Hasting Corporation is interested in acquiring Vandell Corporation. Vandell has 1.5 million shares outstanding and a target capital structure consisting of 30% debt; its beta is 1.4 (given its target capital structure). Vandell has $10.19 million in debt that trades at par and pays an 8% interest rate. Vandell’s current free cash flow (FCF0) is $2 million per year and is expected to grow at a constant rate of 5% a year. Vandell pays a 25% combined federal-plus-state tax rate, the same rate paid by Hastings. The risk-free rate of interest is 5%, and the market risk premium is 6%. Hasting’s first step is to estimate the current intrinsic value of Vandell. What is Vandell’s cost of equity? What is its weighted average cost of capital? What is Vandell’s intrinsic value of operations? (Hint: Use the free cash flow corporate valuation model from Chapter 7.) Based on this analysis, what is the minimum stock price that Vandell’s shareholders should accept?
