CHAPTER 13 B-
We can calculate the terminal value in Year 5 since the cash flows begin a perpetual growth rate.
Since we are valuing Arras, we need to use the cost of capital for that company since this rate is
based on the risk of Arras. The cost of capital for Schultz is irrelevant in this case. So, the terminal
value is:
Now we can discount the cash flows for the first 5 years as well as the terminal value back to today.
Again, using the cost of capital for Arras, we find the value of the company today is:
The market value of the equity is the market value of the company minus the market value of the
debt, or:
21. a. To begin the valuation of Joe’s, we will begin by calculating the RWACC for Happy Times. Since
both companies are in the same industry, it is likely that the RWACC for both companies will be
the same. The weights of debt and equity are:
Next, we need to calculate the cash flows for each year. The EBIT will grow at 10 percent per
year for 5 years. Net working capital, capital spending, and depreciation are 9 percent, 15
percent, and 8 percent of EBIT, respectively. So, the cash flows for each year over the next 5
years will be:
Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4 Year 5
EBIT $16,800,000
$18,480,00
0
$20,328,00
0
$22,360,80
0 $24,596,880
