JenBritt Incorporated had a free cash flow (FCF) of $80 million in 2019. The firm projects FCF of $200 million in 2020 and $500 million in 2021. FCF is expected to grow at a constant rate of 4% in 2022 and thereafter. The weighted average cost of capital is 9%. What is the current (i.e., beginning of 2020) value of operations

Respuesta :

Answer:

Value of Op. $8,635.04 (Millions)

Explanation:

The value of operatins will be the present value of the expected cash flow

we discount 2020 ad 2021 cash flow as lump sum using the WACC of 9%

[tex]\frac{FCF}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV[/tex]

[tex]\frac{200}{(1 + 0.09)^{1} } = PV[/tex]

[tex]\frac{500}{(1 + 0.09)^{2} } = PV[/tex]

Then, for the subsequent year we use the gordon model:

[tex]\frac{FCF_1}{return-growth} = Intrinsic \: Value[/tex]

[tex]\frac{500 x 1.04}{0.09 - 0.04} = Intrinsic \: Value[/tex]

As this is in the future we also have to discounted,

# Cashflow Discounted

1 200 183.49

2 500 420.84

3 520 8030.71

Value of Op. 8635.04
