Case: Mini Case - Temp Force, Respond to Questions a, b, d, and e (1, 2, 3, 4).

Your employer, a midsized human resources management company, is considering expansion into related fields, including the acquisition of Temp Force Company, an employment agency that supplies word processor operators and computer programmers to businesses with temporarily heavy workloads. Your employer is also considering the purchase of Biggerstaff & McDonald (B&M), a privately held company owned by two friends, each with 5 million shares of stock. B&M currently has free cash flow of $24 million, which is expected to grow at a constant rate of 5%. B&M’s financial state-ments report short-term investments of $100 million, debt of $200 million, and preferred stock of $50 million. B&M’s weighted average cost of capital (WACC) is 11%. Answer the following questions:

a. Describe briefly the legal rights and privileges of common stockholders.

b. What is free cash flow (FCF)? What is the weighted average cost of capital? What is the free cash flow valuation model?

c. Use a pie chart to illustrate the sources that comprise a hypothetical company’s total value. Using another pie chart, show the claims on a company’s value. How is equity a residual claim?

d. Suppose the free cash flow at Time 1 is expected to grow at a constant rate of gL forever. If gL cash flows when discounted at the WACC? If the most recent free cash flow is expected to grow at a constant rate of gL , WACC), what is a formula for the present value of expected free cash flows when discounted at the WACC?

e. Use B&M’s data and the free cash flow valuation model to answer the following questions:

(1) What is its estimated value of operations?

(2) What is its estimated total corporate value? (This is the entity value.)

(3) What is its estimated intrinsic value of equity?

You are thrown from a bicycle while riding at speed on a gravel road. Immediately you start bleeding from several places where the gravel cut through your epidermis into your dermis and broke numerous blood vessels.

Your body's first response to this injury is to begin the process known as [a]. This process has three steps.

1. [b]: the [e] in the tunica media of your damaged blood vessels begins to contract, [f] blood flow to this portion of vessel, in an attempt to limit blood loss. Also, the [f1] of your tunica interna become "sticky" in an effort to help kick off the next step...
2. [c]: [g] circulating in your blood are attracted to exposed [h] and to the [f2] that became "sticky" at the end of step one. They begin to form a [i] and also begin to activate more cells of the same type to join them.
3. [d]: [q] factor (factor [1]) is released by damaged extravascular tissue. Together with the mineral [j], this factor activates factor [2], completing the [k] pathway. This factor activates factor [3], beginning the [l] pathway. Next, factor [4] is activated, then factor [5], known as [m]. This last factor initiates a [n] feedback cycle, activating more of itself as well as activating factor [6], known as [o1], a meshwork of which begins to form the actual [p1]. Finally, factor [7] is activated to strengthen the clot and begin its retraction. Blood cells of various sorts get caught in the [o2] mesh and help to solidify the [p2], stopping blood loss until the endothelial cells and rebuild the vessel lining.

Stock Inc. has two sites in Pittsburgh that are four miles apart. Each site consists of a large factory with office space for 25 users at the front of the factory and up to 50 workstations in two work cells on each factory floor. All office users need access to an inventory database that runs on a server at the Allegheny Street location; they also need access to a billing application with data residing on a server at the Monongahela site. All factory floor users also need access to the inventory database at the Allegheny Street location. Office space is permanently configured, but the manufacturing space must be reconfigured before each new manufacturing run begins. Wiring closets are available in the office space. Nothing but a concrete floor and overhead girders stay the same in the work cell areas. The computers must share sensitive data and control access to files. Aside from the two databases, which run on the two servers, office computers must run standard word-processing and spreadsheet programs. Work cell machines are used strictly for updating inventory and quality control information for the Allegheny Street inventory database. Workstations in the manufacturing cells are switched on only when they’re in use, which might occur during different phases of a manufacturing run. Seldom is a machine in use constantly on the factory floor. Use the following write-on lines to evaluate the requirements for this network. After you finish, determine the best network topology or topology combination for the company. On a blank piece of paper, sketch the network design you think best suits ENorm, Inc.’s needs.

● Will the network be peer to peer or server-based?

● How many computers will be attached to the network?

● What topology works best for the offices, given the availability of wiring closets? What topology works best for the factory floor, given its need for constant reconfiguration?

can i also have the network design please

This week we learned about the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA). In that learning we saw that a key to reducing the penalty is through keeping books and records that are clean and transparent. Consider this case:

A USA public company doing business in Freedonia (a made up name from another Marx Brothers movie!) is compelled to bribe local officials in order to be the first to receive a business license for a certain type of industry there. The competition is fierce, but local government officials have unabashedly spread the word that under the table bribery payments to them from the USA company can seal the deal and that's why the USA company is feeling the pressure to participate in the bribe. This would be a violation of the FCPA.

The USA company participates in the fraud, bribing the government officials sufficiently to get the license first, before their competition. The payments are on the books, but hidden, so to speak, in order to get the tax deduction. The payments are cleverly disguised in the expense accounts to appear as normal expenditures.

You are the USA government investigator searching for the fraud after the US government has been tipped off that the fraud happened in Freedonia.

1. What income statement expense accounts would you research for evidence of bribery payments being made even though not so indicated as bribery payments?
2. What type of evidence would you be looking to gather to prove the case?
3. Company officials of the USA company did not want to have all the bribery expenditures traceable directly to them. How else could they disguise the actual payments from the company?
4. Given from your answers above, that the financial statements are obviously misstated, why it is that we don't often see public companies reissue their financials when these FCPA frauds are caught or admitted to?   
5. The USA company hires you to institute policies and procedures to prevent the company and its employees from participating in bribery/corruption schemes in the future. Describe what you advise the company to do.

Your employer, a mid-sized human resources management company, is considering
expansion into related fields, including the acquisition of Temp Force Company, an
employment agency that supplies word processor operators and computer programmers
to businesses with temporary heavy workloads. Your employer is also considering the
purchase of a Biggerstaff & Biggerstaff (B&B), a privately held company owned by two
brothers, each with 5 million shares of stock. B&B currently has free cash flow of $24
million, which is expected to grow at a constant rate of 5%. B&B’s financial statements
report marketable securities of $100 million, debt of $200 million, and preferred stock of
$50 million. B&B’s WACC is 11%. Answer the following questions.
a. Describe briefly the legal rights and privileges of common stockholders.
b. (1) Write out a formula that can be used to value any stock, regardless of its dividend
pattern.
(2) What is a constant growth stock? How are constant growth stocks valued?
(3) What happens if a company has a constant g that exceeds its rs? Will many stocks
have expected g > rs in the short run (i.e., for the next few years)? In the long run
(i.e., forever)?
c. Assume that Temp Force has a beta coefficient of 1.2, that the risk-free rate (the yield
on T-bonds) is 7.0%, and that the market risk premium is 5%. What is the required
rate of return on the firm’s stock?
d. Assume that Temp Force is a constant growth company whose last dividend (D0,
which was paid yesterday) was $2.00 and whose dividend is expected to grow
indefinitely at a 6% rate.
(1) What is the firm’s current estimated intrinsic stock price?
(2) What is the stock’s expected value 1 year from now?

Your client Mary, a surviving spouse of John, has approached you to provide her with gift and estate planning services. Respond to the following questions and submit your answers in a Word Document to the Unit 2: Assignment Dropbox. Remember to review and reference the applicable sections of the Tax Code, including Publications 706 and 709.

Mary is in the process of transferring a residential house worth $700,000 and company stock worth $10,000,000 to her descendants. What is the rationale behind the generation-skipping transfer tax?

Mary’s descendants include her children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren. Mary is in the process of transferring a residential house worth $700,000 and company stock worth $10,000,000 to her descendants. Assuming that the generation-skipping transfer tax did not exist, what type of tax planning would maximize the preservation of the wealth of Mary’s family?

Five years before the death of John, Mary’s spouse, John purchased a $6 million whole life insurance policy on his life and named his daughter, Jane, the sole beneficiary in agreement with Mary. Shortly after purchase, John transferred the policy to an irrevocable trust, naming Jane as trustee. John retained no incidents of ownership. a) Has John made a gift? Explain your response. b) Is the $5 million death benefit included in John's gross estate?

John died leaving Mary a house worth $700,000, company stock worth $10 million, a vehicle worth $20,000, and other personal items worth $5,000. Determine and explain the value of John’s estate property and show the alternate valuation date. Remember to discuss when the fair market values and sale values are used.

How do the estate income tax rules encourage a quick distribution of the estate assets of John? In your analysis, use income tax rate for income earned by assets held within an estate of 39.6% at $12,400 in 2016.
