Based upon the Saxton Company (financials), assume that Net Income is a Perpetuity. Then for the Saxton Company:
1. Using Net Income as a Perpetuity, determine a (Present) Value for the Saxton Company assuming that ROE is the % Discount Rate (i.e. % Required Rate of Return)
2. Determine the Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC), where ROE can be viewed as the Cost of Equity (component) and the Cost of Debt can be determined by dividing the Interest Expense by the Total Debt
3. Using Net Income as a Perpetuity, determine a (Present) Value for the Saxton Company (now) assuming that the WACC is the Discount Rate (i.e.% Required Rate of Return).
1. Net Income = 200000
Considering Return of Equity (ROE) as discounted rate for finding the value of Saxton company
Return of Equity = Net Income / Total Shareholder's Equity = 200000 / 1000000 = 20%
Using Net Income as perpetuity,
Value of Saxton company = Net Income / Discount rate = Net Income / Return of Equity
= 200000 / 20% = $1000000
2. Total Debt = D = Long term liabilities + Notes payable = 300000 + 250000 = 550000
Total shareholder's equity = E = 1000000
Cost of Debt = Rd = Interest Expense / Total Debt = 50000 / 550000 = 9.09%
Cost of Equity = Re = Return of equity = 20%
WACC = 35.48% x 9.09% 67% + 64.52% x 20% = 2.16% + 12.90% = 15.06%
3. Using Net Income as perpetuity and WACC as discount rate,
Value of Saxton Company = Net Income / WACC = 200000 / 15.06% = $1328021.25
