16. [Enterprise Valuation Method] The Datametrix Corporation has been in operation
for one full year (2019). Financial statements are shown below. Sales are expected
to grow at a 30 percent annual rate for each of the next three years (2020, 2021, and
2022) before settling down to a long-run growth rate of 7 percent annually. The cost
of goods sold is expected to vary with sales. Operating expenses are expected to
grow at 75 percent of the sales growth rate (i.e., be semi-fixed) for the next three
years before again growing at the same rate as sales beginning in 2023. Interest
expense is expected to grow with sales. Depreciation can be forecasted either as a

Selected balance sheet accounts at the end of 2019 are as follows: Required cash,
accounts receivable, and inventories accounts totaled $50,000, net fixed assets were
$50,000, and accounts payable and accruals totaled $25,000. Each of these balance sheet
accounts was expected to grow with sales over time. Long-term debt was $30,000 and
there were 10,000 shares of common stock outstanding at the end of 2019.
A. Project Wok Yow’s net operating profit after-tax (NOPAT) statements for 2020-

The NOPAT results are shown below in the spreadsheet solution. NOPAT
amounts were: 30.0 (2020), 37.5 (2021), 45.0 (2022), 52.5 (2023), and 55.7

F. Estimate the firm’s enterprise or entity value at the end of 2019.
The enterprise or entity value at the end of 2019 is estimated to be 233.6

G. Adjust the enterprise value to determine Wok Yow’s equity value in dollars and on
a per share basis at the end of 2019.
H. Now, estimate Wok Yow’s after-tax cost of long-term debt. Use the risk free rate,
the expected market risk premium, and the risk index for the Fine Furniture
Company to estimate Wok Yow’s cost of equity capital. Determine Wok Yow’s
weighted average cost of capital (WACC).
Cost of common equity capital = 7% + (7.5%)2.00 = 7% + 15% = 22%
I. Reestimate Wok Yow’s enterprise value using the WACC calculated in Part H.
Then, adjust the enterprise value to determine Wok Yow’s equity value in dollars

MINI CASE 2: RxDELIVERY SYSTEMS, INC. (Revisited)
RxDelivery Systems is an R&D venture specializing in the development and testing of
new drug delivery technologies. The market for alternative drug delivery systems grew
rapidly during the past several years. Driving factors behind this growth include efforts
to reduce drug side effects through site-specific delivery, the need to maintain the activity
RxDelivery Systems believes it can compete effectively in both the polymer-
based and pulmonary drug delivery areas. The venture’s delivery technology is expected
to utilize hydrophobic ion pairing and supercritical carbon dioxide precipitation to
major drug company, will initially operate as an independent corporation but will be
merged into the parent at the end of its second year. At that time, RxDelivery Systems’
entrepreneurial team will be paid a lump sum of $2,500,000 as the terminal value for the
venture. Following are limited financial statement projections for the next two years for
the RxDelivery Systems Corporation:
A. Construct the venture’s balance sheet at startup. Then construct financial statements
for Years 1 and 2. [Put initial fixed asset investments in Year 0 and initial working
capital investments in Year 1. Assume the initial $50,000 is equity financed.]
See spreadsheet below.
C. What is the value of the enterprise at time 0 assuming a discount rate of 30%?
The venture has no debt and therefore WACC is the same as the discount rate for
equity.
See spreadsheet below.
E. Why does this value differ from the value for the equity method in the RxDelivery
Systems mini case at the end of Chapter 10?
The venture has no debt and therefore WACC is the same as the discount rate for
The enterprise valuation approach is:
The deferred tax asset (accrued taxes) approach would give the same enterprise
valuation cash flows after adding a tax credit and taking out the investment in a
deferred tax asset.
