Firm Valuation
Schultz Industries is considering the purchase of Arras Manufacturing. Arras is currently a supplier for Schultz, and the acquisition would allow Schultz to better control its material supply. The current cash flow from assets for Arras is $8.1 million. The cash flows are expected to grow at 5 percent for the next five years before leveling off to 2 percent for the indefinite future. The cost of capital for Schultz and Arras is 9 percent and 7 percent, respectively. Arras currently has 3 million shares of stock outstanding and $25 million in debt outstanding.
What is the maximum price per share Schultz should pay for Arras?
Cash acquisition decision Benson Oil is being considered for acquisition by Dodd Oil. The combination, Dodd believes, would increase its cash inflows by $25,000 for each of the next 5 years and by $50,000 for each of the following 5 years. Benson has high financial leverage, and Dodd can expect its cost of capital to increase from 12% to 15% if the merger is undertaken. The cash price of Benson is $125,000.
Would you recommend the merger?
Would you recommend the merger if Dodd could use the $125,000 to purchase equipment that will return cash inflows of $40,000 per year for each of the next 10 years?
If the cost of capital did not change with the merger, would your decision in part b be different? Explain.
Orca Industries is considering the purchase of Shark Manufacturing. Shark is currently a supplier for Orca and the acquisition would allow Orca to better control its material supply. The current cash flow from assets for Shark is $8.3 million. The cash flows are expected to grow at 7 percent for the next five years before leveling off to 4 percent for the indefinite future. The costs of capital for Orca and Shark are 11 percent and 9 percent, respectively. Shark currently has 3 million shares of stock outstanding and $25 million in debt outstanding.
What is the maximum price per share Orca should pay for Shark? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
