Year 1: $8

Year 2: $27

Year 3: $41

A. What is Dantzler's horizon, or continuing, value? (Hint: Find the value of all free cash flows beyond Year 3 discounted back to Year 3.) Round your answer to two decimal places.

B. What is the firm's value today? Round your answer to two decimal places. Enter your answer in millions.

C. Suppose Dantzler has $121 million of debt and 18 million shares of stock outstanding. What is your estimate of the current price per share?

Answer 1

1)Horizon Value :FCF3(1+g)/(WACC-G)

             = 41(1+.04)/(.14-.04)

             = 41* 1.04 /.10

               = 426.4

B)Value Of firm today :[PVF 14%,1*FCF1]+[PVF14%,2*FCF2]+[PVF 14%,3*FCF3]+[PVF 14%,3*HV]

             = [.87719*8]+[.76947*27]+[.67497*41]+[.67497*426.4]

               = 7.01752+ 20.77569+ 27.67377+ 287.8072

              = 343.27

C)Value of equity : 343.27-121 = 222.27

Value per share : value of equity /shares outstanding

           = 222.27 /18

             = $ 12.35 per share
