Question 1 - Capital structure

Accommodate plc is a hospitality company that owns a chain of hotels in the UK. The company is considering the acquisition of a number of fitness centres to expand its operations. The Finance Director has been asked to evaluate the project.

The investment would cost £20 million, which would be payable immediately. The investment is expected to generate pre-tax earnings of £1.2 million for the first year, £2.3 million for the second year, and £2million for each year thereafter.

The investment will be financed by 30% equity and 70% debt, which is in line with Accommodate’s existing capital structure. Due to a government initiative, some of the debt will be raised by a subsidised loan, however, the details are yet to be determined.

Accommodate’s current weighted average cost of capital (WACC) is 9%, and their pre-tax cost of debt is equal to the risk-free rate of 2%. The expected market return is currently 6%.

The Finance Director of Accommodate plc has obtained the equity and debt betas and the gearing ratio of a proxy company, for the purposes of project appraisal, these are: -

Assume that the marginal rate of corporate tax is 20%.

Required:

1. Calculate the risk-adjusted WACC for Accommodate plc using Active plc as a proxy company.       

2. Calculate the NPV for the project, using the risk-adjusted WACC as the cost of capital. Suggest whether the project should be accepted.

3. Describe the benefits and limitations of using the WACC, risk-adjusted WACC and adjusted present value approaches to appraise the project. (Maximum wordcount: 240 words)

Foreign direct investment (FDI) is an investment made by a firm or individual in a country into business located in another country. FDI happens when an investor establishes a business in another country separate from his home country. Or a business owner could acquire foreign business assets, including establishing ownership or controlling interest in that company. Foreign direct investments are distinguished from portfolio investments in which investors can purchases equities of foreign-based companies. Foreign direct investments are commonly made in open economies that offer a skilled workforce and above-average growth for the investor, as opposed to tightly regulated economies. Foreign direct investment frequently involves more than just a capital investment. It may include provisions of management or technology as well. The key feature of foreign direct investment is that it establishes either effective control of, or at least substantial influence over, the decision-making of a foreign business.

Foreign direct investments can be made in a variety of ways, including the opening of another company in a foreign country, acquiring and controlling an existing foreign company, or by means of a merger or joint venture with a company.The threshold for a foreign investment is a minimum 10% ownership stake in a foreign-based company. However, that definition is flexible, there are instances where a firm can be established with less than 10% of the company's shares.

Singapore, US and UK are among the leading sources of FDI. Based on data that the FDI flows were $10.4 billion, which is a drop of 43% from the first half of last year

Chapter 7:  

Central University of Illinois has a newly appointed president, Catherine Husker. This has been a challenging budget year due to the difficulties of getting a state budget passed in the State Legislature. It appears from all reports that the budget that may get passed will be only 90% of last year’s state appropriations for the University. This means the University will have to cut their own operating budget for next year because of the State’s expected reduction in appropriations to higher education.

Husker just had a meeting with the athletic director of the university, Gareth Connor, to discuss the budget for the athletic department. Central University has been a men’s football and basketball powerhouse for the last several decades. However, the women’s athletic program has had less success. Last year, though, the women’s basketball team was one of the team’s selected to participate in the NCAA Women’s Basketball Competition through an “at-large bid” due to their outstanding season.

Connor and Husker discussed the 2018 Athletic Department budget, which Connor believed was the final draft. The meeting did not go well. In fact, it went terribly.   Husker discussed four grave concerns she had about the Athletic Department budget and requested Connor to review and revise the budget in light of her concerns below. Draft II of the budget is due in two weeks time.

Concern 1: The Athletic Department is budgeting a loss of over $3 million. Given the tight fiscal position of the university, this outcome is unacceptable to Husker. A budgeted loss of $1 million is the most she will tolerate for 2018. By 2019 the Athletic Department has to operate with a balanced budget. She tells Connor this is nonnegotiable.

Concern 2: The low allocation of money to the women’s athletic program. Fox Valley News, a tabloid television show, recently ran a program titled “It’s a Man’s World at Central University Athletics’ Program.” Husker said Connor is treating woman athletes as “third-class citizens.”

Concern 3: The low academic performance of the men’s football athletes, many of whom have full scholarships. She notes that the local TV news recently ran an interview with three football-team students, only one of which “exemplified the high academic credentials she wants Central to showcase to the world.” As for the other two students, she calls one student “incoherent” and another “incapable of stringing sentences together.”

Concern 4: The outrageous salary paid to “Bull” Mason, the football coach. She notes it is twice that of the highest paid academic person on campus, a Nobel Prize winner. Moreover, Mason receives other payments from his “Football the Central Way” summer program for high school students.

Below is Draft I of the Athletic Department budget:
