Question 5 & 6
Question 5
Perpetuity formulas cannot be used when growth exceeds the cost of capital. When this occurs, cash flows grow
faster than they can be discounted, and consequently value is infinite. From an economic perspective, growth
must eventually fall as the company grows larger (a $250 billion company cannot continually grow faster than
10 percent). To avoid this problem, extend the forecast period until growth stabilizes at a real growth rate
no higher than 5 percent.
Question 6
As Exhibit 10.6 demonstrates, return on total capital does not necessarily equal return on new capital. Return
on total capital is a blend between return on existing capital (i.e., capital that existed at the start of the continuing
value period) and return on new invested capital. As the company adds new capital, return on total capital will
trend toward return on new invested capital. Therefore, SuperiorCo will have return on total capital above
the cost of capital, even during the continuing value period.
