Queen and Family's free cash flow to equity during the most recent fiscal year (t = 0) was $100 million. The firm's cash flows are expected to grow at a constant rate of 5% in the future, and the firm is already in a steady state. If the weighted average cost of capital is 12%, before-tax cost of debt is 8%, and cost of equity is 15%, what is the firm's market value of equity (market capitalization)?

$1,050

A company's free cash flow to firm was just FCFF0 = $1.50 million. The weighted average cost of capital is WACC = 10.1%, and the steady-state growth rate is g = 4.0%. What is the current enterprise value?

$25.57 million

Blackstone Products is considering a new project which requires the purchase of new equipment for $70,000. The required equipment will incur additional shipping and installation costs of $12,000, and has a 3-year tax life. The accelerated rates for such property are 33.33%, 44.45%, 14.81%, and 7.41% for Years 1 through 4 (based on MACRS). What is the project's year 2 depreciation which would be used in cash flow estimation?

$36,449

Wallace Industries is expected to pay a dividend of $1.85 on its common stock this year. The dividends of Wallace are expected to grow at 5.5% per year indefinitely. If investors require a 10% return on Wallace's stock, what would be the value of the stock today?

$41.11

Wayne Enterprises, Inc.'s free cash flows are expected to be unstable during the next few years while the company undergoes restructuring. However, FCF is expected to be $50 million in Year 5 (i.e., t = 5), and the FCF growth rate is expected to be constant at 6% beyond that point. If the weighted average cost of capital is 12%, what is the terminal value (in millions) at t = 5?

$883

Shoppers Drug Mart is considering a project that has the following cash flows, WACC, and reinvestment rate data. What is the project's IRR? WACC: 9.50% Reinvestment rate: 11.40% Year 0 1 2 3 4 Cash flows -$1,000 $300 $300 $300 $260

Bloom and Co. has no debt or preferred stock⎯ it uses only equity capital, and has two equally-sized divisions. Division X's cost of capital is 10.0%, Division Y's cost is 14.0%, and the corporate (composite) WACC is 12.0%. All of Division X's projects are equally risky, as are all of Division Y's projects. However, the projects of Division X are less risky than those of Division Y. Which of the following projects should the firm accept

A Division X project with an 11% return.

Assume a project has normal cash flows (i.e., one initial cash outflow followed by a series of positive cash inflows). All else equal, which of the following statements is FALSE?

A project's IRR increases as the WACC declines.

Which of the following statements is FALSE?

In cash flow estimation, the existence of externalities should only be considered if those externalities have a negative effect on the firm's long-run cash flows

Taylor Inc. estimates that its average-risk projects have a WACC of 10%, its below-average risk projects have a WACC of 8%, and its above-average risk projects have a WACC of 12%. Which of the following projects (A, B, and C) should the company accept?

Project B, which is of below-average risk and has a return of 8.5%

Projects S and L are both normal projects with an initial cost of $10,000, followed by a series of positive cash inflows. Project S's undiscounted net cash flows total $20,000, while L's total undiscounted flows are $30,000. At a cost of capital of 10%, the two projects have identical NPVs. Which project's NPV is more sensitive to changes in the cost of capital? (Hint: Think about the timing of CFs for each project.)

Project L

Projects X and Y both have normal cash flows and are mutually exclusive. Project X has a higher NPV if the cost of capital is less than 12%, whereas Project Y has a higher NPV if the cost of capital exceeds 12%. Which of the following statements is CORRECT? (Hint: Draw the NPV profiles of the two projects, i.e., the relationship between the cost of capital and NPV, on a graph.)

Project Y probably has a higher IRR.

An exploration of the effect on NPV of changing a single project parameter is called

You would consider all the following costs when making a capital budgeting decision, EXCEPT

Sunk Cost

Which of the following factors should be included in the cash flows used to estimate a project's NPV?

The end-of-project recovery of any working capital required to operate the project.

Which of the following statements is TRUE?
