Normandy Instruments invests heavily in research and development (R&D), although it must currently treat its R&D expenditures as expenses for financial accounting purposes. To encourage investment in R&D, Normandy evaluates its division managers using EVA. The company adjusts accounting income for R&D expenditures by assuming these expenditures create assets with a two-year life. That is, the R&D expenditures are capitalized and then amortized over two years. Aerospace Division of Normandy shows after-tax income of $18.0 million for year 2. R&D expenditures in year 1 amounted to $7.2 million and in year 2, R&D expenditures were $12.0 million. For purposes of computing EVA, Normandy assumes all R&D expenditures are made uniformly over the year. Before adjusting for R&D, Aerospace Division shows assets of $72 million at the beginning of year 2 and current liabilities of $1,500,000. Normandy computes EVA using divisional investment at the beginning of…
A sporting goods manufacturer has decided to expand into a related business. Management estimates that to build and staff a facility of the desired size and to attain capacity operations would cost $520 million in present value terms. Alternatively, the company could acquire an existing firm or division with the desired capacity. One such opportunity is a division of another company. The book value of the division’s assets is $350 million and its earnings before interest and tax are presently $60 million. Publicly traded comparable companies are selling in a narrow range around 12 times current earnings. These companies have book value debt-to-asset ratios averaging 40 percent with an average interest rate of 10 percent. a. Using a tax rate of 36 percent, estimate the minimum price the owner of the division should consider for its sale. Note: Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer in millions rounded to 1 decimal place.

Last Resort Industries Inc. is a privately held diversified company with five separate divisions organized as investment centers. A condensed income statement for the Specialty Products Division for the past year, assuming no support department allocations, along with asset information is as follows: The manager of the Specialty Products Division was recently presented with the opportunity to add an additional product line, which would require invested assets of 14,400,000. A projected income statement for the new product line is as follows: The Specialty Products Division currently has 27,000,000 in invested assets, and Last Resort Industries Inc.s overall return on investment, including all divisions, is 10%. Each division manager is evaluated on the basis of divisional return on investment. A bonus is paid, in 8,000 increments, for each whole percentage point that the divisions return on investment exceeds the company average.
