Marketable Securities $40
Notes payable $100
Long-term bonds $300
Preferred stock $50
WACC 9.00%
Number of shares of stock 40
a. Calculate the estimated horizon value (i.e., the value of operations at the end of the forecast period
immediately after the Year-4 free cash flow). Assume growth becomes constant after Year 3.
Current Projected
0 1 2 3 4
Free cash flow -$20.0 $20.0 $80.0 $84.0
Long-term constant growth in FCF 5.0%
Horizon value $2,205.00
b. Calculate the present value of the horizon value, the present value of the free cash flows, and the
estimated Year-0 value of operations.
PV of horizon value $1,562.08 (18.3) 16.8 61.8 59.5 119.8 $1,681.84
PV of FCF $ 119.77
Value of operations (PV of FCF + HV) $1,681.84
c. Calculate the estimated Year-0 price per share of common equity.
Value of operations $1,681.84
Plus value of marketable securities $40.00
Total value of company $1,721.84
Less value of debt $400.00
Less value of preferred stock $50.00
Estimated value of common equity $1,271.84
Divided by number of shares $40.00
Price per share $31.80
SELF-TEST PROBLEMS
Value of operations $2,675,000.00
(ST-3) Plus value of marketable securities $325,000.00
FCF $100,000 Total value of company $3,000,000.00
gl 7% Less value of debt $1,000,000.00
WACC 11% Less value of preferred stock $0.00
Marketable securities $325,000 Estimated value of common equity $2,000,000.00
Debt $1,000,000 Divided by number of shares 50000
Shares # 50000 Price per share $40.00
a. Value of operations
Vop = FCF(1+g)/WACC-g
$2,675,000
b. Total value = Value of operation + Value of non operating assets
$2,675,000 $325,000
= $3,000,000
c. Value of Equity = Total Value - Value of debt
$3,000,000 $1,000,000
= $2,000,000
d. Price per share = Value of equity = $40
