Question

1.

Horizon Value of Free Cash Flows

Current and projected free cash flows for Radell Global Operations are shown below.

Growth is expected to be constant after 2017, and the weighted average cost of capital is 11.85%. What is the horizon (continuing) value at 2018 if growth from 2017 remains constant? Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer in millions. For example, an answer of $1 million should be entered as 1, not 1,000,000. Round your answer to the nearest whole number.

$   million

2.

Declining Growth Stock Valuation

Brushy Mountain Mining Company's coal reserves are being depleted, so its sales are falling. Also, environmental costs increase each year, so its costs are rising. As a result, the company's earnings and dividends are declining at the constant rate of 8% per year. If D0 = $5 and rs = 12%, what is the estimated value of Brushy Mountain's stock? Round your answer to the nearest cent.

Value of Operations

Kendra Enterprises has never paid a dividend. Free cash flow is projected to be $80,000 and $100,000 for the next 2 years, respectively; after the second year, FCF is expected to grow at a constant rate of 8%. The company's weighted average cost of capital is 16%.

What is the terminal, or horizon, value of operations? (Hint: Find the value of all free cash flows beyond Year 2 discounted back to Year 2.) Round your answer to the nearest cent.

Explanation / Answer

1-

Horizon value

free cash flow in 2018/(WACC- growth rate)

769.49/(11.85%-8%)

19986.75

growth rate =(free cash flow 2018/free cash flow 2017)_1

(769.49/712.49)-1

8.00%

2-

value of stock

expected dividend/(cost of equity-growth rate)

4.6/(12%-(-8%))

23

expected dividend

5*(1-8%)

4.6

3-

Free cash flow in year 3

year 2 free cash flow*(1+growth rate)

100000*(1.08)

108000

terminal value

free cash flow in year 3/(WACC-growth rate)

108000/(16%-8%)

1350000
