CHAPTER 12 B – 2
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:
TV5 = CF6/(RWACC – g)
Again, using the cost of capital for Arras, we find the value of the company today is:
V0 = $7,344,000/1.10 + $7,931,520/1.102 + $8,566,042/1.103 + $9,251,325/1.104
The market value of the equity is the market value of the company minus the market value of the debt,
or:
To find the maximum offer price, we divide the market value of equity by the shares outstanding, or:
Share price = $114,723,941/2,400,000
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:
XB = $115,000,000/($115,000,000 + 350,000,000)
XB = .2473, or 24.73%
