Problem 3 Free Cash Flow Model You are going to value Lauryn's Doll Co. using the FCF model. After consulting various sources, you find that Lauryn has a reported equity beta of 1.4, a debt-to- equity ratio of.3, and a tax rate of 30 percent. Based on this information, what is Lauryn's asset beta?

Explanation / Answer

Free cash flows:

= $40*(1-30%)+$4-$5-$3

= $28+$4-$5-$3

FCF = $24 million

Asset Beta = Beta (levered)÷[1+(D/E)×(1-t)]

= 1.40/(1+0.30*(1-30%))

= 1.16

Hence, Asset beta is 1.16
