a)
To determine: The value of unlevered operations and tax shield.
a)
Explanation of Solution
The computation of unlevered
Hence, the value of unlevered operation is 11.14%.
The computation of tax rate is as follows:
In the other years, the tax shield is equivalent to the interest cost multiplied by the rate of tax:
TS1 = 1.2(0.35) = 0.42, TS2 = 0.595, TS3 = 0.98, TS4 = 0.735
Hence, the value of tax shield is $11.50million.
The computation of unlevered horizon value is as follows:
Hence, the unlevered horizon value is $43.7million.
The computation of unlevered value of operation is as follows:
Hence, the unlevered value of operation is $32.02million.
b)
To determine: The dollar value of company C’s operations and how much the company M ready to pay for company C.
b)
Explanation of Solution
The computation of dollar value of operation is as follows:
Hence, the dollar value of operation is $43.52million.
The computation of amount ready to pay for company C is as follows:
Hence, the amount pay for company C is 33.52million.
Although not requisite for the value computation, the WACC at the new capital structure can be computed. At the new capital structure of 40 percent debt with a rate of 9.5 percent, the new levered cost of equity and WACC will be:
Hence the WACC is 9.81%.

- McNabb Enterprises is considering going private through a leveraged buyout by management. Management currently owns 21 percent of the 5 million shares outstanding. Market price per share is $20, and it is felt that a 40 percent premium over the present price will be necessary to entice public shareholders to tender their shares in a cash offer. Management intends to keep its shares and to obtain senior debt equal to 80 percent of the funds necessary to consummate the buyout. The remaining 20 percent will come from junior subordinated debentures. Terms on the senior debt are 2 percent above the prime rate with principal reductions of 20 percent of the initial loan at the end of each of the next five years. The junior subordinated debentures bear a 13 percent interest rate and must be retired at the end of six years with a single balloon payment.
