PARTE III. ESTUDIO DEL CASO:GREENLEAF NURSERY, INC.OBJETIVO:El estudiante, en el marco <strong>de</strong> su equipo <strong>de</strong> trabajo, aplicará <strong>las</strong> técnicas yherramientas <strong>de</strong>l análisis financiero, especialmente el método DuPont, a un caso <strong>de</strong>estudio.DURACIÓN : 3 horasMR. FRANKLIN FLORA, Presi<strong>de</strong>nt of Greenleaf Nursery, is seriously studying theperformance of his business in the recently completed fiscal year (see Exhibits I and2). Greenleaf Nursery, organized by Mr. Flora, is five years old and is an expanding,profitable enterprise. However, some nagging questions persist. Although Mr. Flora isnot dissatisfied with the enterprise's performance, he has <strong>de</strong>veloped no objectivestandard against which to gauge his intuition. Moreover, as Presi<strong>de</strong>nt of GreenleafNursery, he recognizes that he should be spending more time on long-run policy andstrategy consi<strong>de</strong>rations than the daily <strong>de</strong>mands of the business have permitted.Mr. Flora is convinced that he must establish some criteria against which to evaluatethe performance of Greenleaf. He recalls reading of a mo<strong>de</strong>l <strong>de</strong>veloped by DuPont toassist in the planning and control of that firm's operations (see Appendix). He doesnot know if the mo<strong>de</strong>l has ever been applied to the nursery industry, or if there wouldbe any merit in attempting to apply it. Nevertheless, believing that the next severalyears will be critical ones for his nursery, Mr. Flora <strong>de</strong>ci<strong>de</strong>s to attempt to use theDuPont mo<strong>de</strong>l.Greenleaf Nursery consists of the main outlet, which inclu<strong>de</strong>s the headquarters office,and one branch outlet opened just over a year ago. The two outlets are in suburbanareas along heavily traveled streets on the opposite si<strong>de</strong> of metropolitan Phoenix.Further expansion is on the drawing boards, with another branch outlet planned toopen in six months in a third suburb of Phoenix.Greenleaf stores have an open grid layout rather than a floor plan emphasizing<strong>de</strong>partmentalization. This type of layout, along with the fact that both stores areleased, allows Greenleaf to have a lower investment in fixed assets.Objectives of Greenleaf Nursery are profit of 6 percent on sales before taxes andoperating expenses of not more than 25 percent of sales. Inventory turnover isexpected at least six times a year. Greenleaf follows a conservative financial policywith most of its growth coming from retained earnings. Last year corporate salestotalled $400,000. A substantial increase is expected this year.24


Monthly income statements are prepared for each store. Expense norms areestablished from these data and given to the stores. This information gives each storemanager a measure by which to judge store performance. In addition, standards<strong>de</strong>veloped by a tra<strong>de</strong> association are used for comparison. Inventories in both storesare centrally controlled by Mr. Flora.Greenleaf stores have an open grid layout rather than a floor plan emphasizing<strong>de</strong>partmentalization.

Both stores are openMonday through Saturday with evening hours every Thursday. Bank credit cards areaccepted, and Greenleaf carries its own charge accounts for long-time customers.Free <strong>de</strong>livery is offered on purchases of $25 or more.It is the policy of Greenleaf Nursery to employ competent individuals who will be ableto advise gar<strong>de</strong>ners as well as sell products. Mr. Flora believes that both regular andfirst-time customers <strong>de</strong>serve knowledgeable, courteous help. Each Greenleaf storehas a training program for its new employees. The two stores have a total of sixfull-time and five part-time employees in addition to Mr. Flora. Employees areencouraged to work toward Arizona Certified Nurserymen standing. Time permitting,Mr. Flora also arranges training sessions for employees on exceptional lines-newmerchandise, slow-selling lines, or high-volume seasonal items.Greenleaf managers are expected to participate in community affairs and to beconscious of projecting the proper Greenleaf image. Mr. Flora and the managers ofhis two outlets accept all invitations to speak at local gar<strong>de</strong>ning groups andsometimes provi<strong>de</strong> Greenleaf merchandise for door prizes.Greenleaf Nursery believes in providing quality merchandise combined with a fairprice and substantial customer service. Mr. Flora views his business as environmentalplanning for Phoenix-area resi<strong>de</strong>nts. He believes retail sales and profits will naturallyimprove if he consistently provi<strong>de</strong>s effective environmental planning for all customers.In or<strong>de</strong>r to appeal to different market segments, Greenleaf strives to have the largest25


selection in the metropolitan area of green goods and shelf goods in both high- andlow-priced lines. Greenleaf also carries an assortment of small ticket shelf goods.Most of the name brands in shelf goods-such as Ortho, Charles Lilly, Capitol,Fertilome, and Northrup King-are carried. Mr. Flora is consi<strong>de</strong>ring the possibility of<strong>de</strong>veloping a line of generic shelf goods for which there are several potentialsuppliers.EXHIBIT IGreenleaf Nursery, Inc.Balance Sheet as of June 30, 1981Current assetsCurrent liabilitiesCash $ 5,000 Accounts payable $ 25,000Inventory 120,000 Notes payable 20,000Accounts receivable 20,000 Total current liabilities $45,000Total current assets $145,000 Long-term liabilities 65,000Fixed assets, net 55,000 Total liabilities $ 110,000Total assets $200,000 Net worthCommon stock $ 30,000Retained earnings 60,000Total net worth $ 90,000Total liabilities and net worth $200,000Merchandise ranges from mass-appeal items such as annual bedding plants andcitrus trees to limited-appeal items such as bromeliad plants and Agri-mycin 17.Prices range from thirty-nine cents to $1,000 and from seed packets to specimenlandscape material.

PARTE II. ESTUDIO DEL CASO:THE COLLEGIATE CORNER (3 hrs.)The Collegiate Corner was established in 1977 by Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Jordan in auniversity town of 45,000. Mrs and Mr. Jordan acted as buyer and general manager ofthe shop. Mr. Jordan, who was a stockbroker, took relatively little part in managing theenterprise except for general advice and assistance. The store’ s retail linesconsisted of casual clothing which appealed to young men and women from fifteen totwenty-five.Competition was keen in the clothing market. However, the Collegiate Corner’ smerchandise inclu<strong>de</strong>d well-known lines, and the shop was located in a shoppingcenter convenient for stu<strong>de</strong>nts from the nearby university. The shop soon becamepopular for the latest fad items as well as long-time favorite casual clothing. Priceswere competitive with other shops and <strong>de</strong>partment stores in the community.Mrs. Jordan worked in the shop along with a full-time sales clerk. Part-time stu<strong>de</strong>nthelp was used during seasonal high-volume sales periods or when Mrs. Jordan wasout of town on buying trips. Mr. Jordan handled some of the paperworks of thebusiness. A public accounting firm prepared the shop’ s tax returns.At the end of April 1981 Mrs. Jordan was planning her sales program in <strong>de</strong>tail for the<strong>las</strong>t eight months of the year including the back-to-school promotion for Septemberand the December holidays’ sale. To finance inventory requirements over the past3½ years the Jordans has relied on the First National Bank for loans. These seasonalborrowings had been repaid at the end of the selling season.In preparing for a discussion with her banker regarding credit needs in the <strong>las</strong>t eightmonths of 1981 Mrs. Jordan collected the information for a cash budget based oncash receipts and disbursements. Mrs. Jordan estimated sales for the remain<strong>de</strong>r ofthe current year as given in Exhibit 1, based on prior years’ trends and herassessment of the economic picture in the community.EXHIBIT 1Sales Estimates for Last Eight Months of 1981May $11,000June 9,000July 7,000August 14,000September 19,000October 14,000November 13,000December 18,00035


Approximately 80 percent of the shop’ s sales are paid in cash or with bank creditcards. Mrs. Jordan’ s sales estimates already reflect the discount charge ma<strong>de</strong> by thebanks for bank credit card sales. The remaining 20 percent of sales are ma<strong>de</strong> toestablished credit customers on thirty-day charge accounts. For planning purposesMrs. Jordan calculates that 70 percent of the shop’ s charge accounts will be paid themonth following sale with the remaining 30 percent being paid the second monthfollowing sale. Bad <strong>de</strong>bt losses from the shop’ s charge customers have been sosmall that they are ignored for planning purposes. Customers accounts receivable atthe end of April 1981 amounted to $ 3,000. It was expected that $ 2,000 of thisamount would be collected in May and $ 1,000 would be collected in June.The shop’ s bank balance was $ 2,000 at the end of April. The Jordans consi<strong>de</strong>redthis to be the minimum level of cash necessary to meet unexpected needs.The Collegiate Corner’ s purchases of merchandise are generally ma<strong>de</strong> on terms of3/15 net 45. The Jordans make every effort to take all cash discounts for promptpayment of purchase invoices. For planning purposes it is assumed that purchasesare ma<strong>de</strong> evently thoughout the month. Exhibit 2 shows the estimated purchases bythe Collegiate Corner for the <strong>las</strong>t nine months of 1981.EXHIBIT 2Estimates Purchases of MerchandiseGross Purchase1981 InvoiceApril (actual) $6,000May (planned) 7,000June 14,000July 9,000August 6,000September 10,000October 3,000November 2,000December 8,000Wages and Mrs. Jordan’ s proprietor’ s drawings were estimated at $ 2,200 a monthexcept during September and December when a part-time sales person will beemployed, adding approximately $ 700 to wage payments in each of these twomonths.Rent and utilities were expected to average $ 1,000 monthly. The projectedadvertising schedule for the clothing store for the <strong>las</strong>t months of 1981 is shown inExhibit 3. Advertising expenses are paid the month following the schedule run.36

Furthermore, Mrs. Jordan estimated miscellaneouscash payments each month would average $ 500 for items such as supplies, minorrepairs, buying trips, and contributions.After gathering these data, Mrs. Jordan was ready to prepare a cash budget forecastto present to the First National Bank loan officer with her request for short-term creditfor remain<strong>de</strong>r of the year.QUESTIONS1.

La planta requerirá unterreno que le costará $ 1 200 000, y que adquirirá y pagará a finales <strong>de</strong> 1999. Laconstrucción <strong>de</strong>l edificio comenzaría a principios <strong>de</strong>l año 2000 y continuaría a lo largo<strong>de</strong>l 2001. La edificación costaría $ 8 400 000 y se <strong>de</strong>preciaría en línea rectaconsi<strong>de</strong>rando un valor residual contable <strong>de</strong> $ 2 400 000, y los pagos por suconstrucción se realizarían en partes iguales al finalizar los años 2000 y 2001.El equipo requerido por el proyecto sería adquirido e instalado a fines <strong>de</strong> 2001, y sepagarían los $ 12 000 000 que cuesta su compra y puesta en marcha, al finalizar eseaño, <strong>de</strong>preciándose también en línea recta sin preverse valor residual.El proyecto requerirá una inversión inicial en capital <strong>de</strong> trabajo a fines <strong>de</strong> 2001igual al 12 % <strong>de</strong> <strong>las</strong> ventas estimadas para el primer año, y a partir <strong>de</strong>l inicio <strong>de</strong> suoperación, se consi<strong>de</strong>raría para el 31 <strong>de</strong> diciembre <strong>de</strong> cada año un incremento encapital neto <strong>de</strong> trabajo igual al 12 % <strong>de</strong> cualquier incremento esperado en <strong>las</strong> ventaspara el año siguiente.La vida económica estimada para el proyecto es <strong>de</strong> 6 años, y se espera que en elúltimo año, el terreno tenga un valor <strong>de</strong> mercado <strong>de</strong> $ 1 700 000, el edificio <strong>de</strong> $ 1000 000 y el equipo <strong>de</strong> $ 1 500 000.

Although growth was slow the first few years,sales had climbed to $30,000,000 by 1974. Since Mr. Hester was approachingretirement, he wanted to diversify his asset holdings. To do this, he nee<strong>de</strong>d to find abuyer for the company. Balance sheets and an operations statement are inclu<strong>de</strong>d asExhibit 9.1 and Exhibit 9.2.In 1975, Controlls, Inc., a large conglomerate specializing in industrial heatingand air conditioning, bought Vista World, adding it as a division. The arrangement didnot prove to be economically sound. In 1977, the Vista World Division was sold to agroup of investors, who immediately sold stock to the general public. The <strong>de</strong>cisionwas then ma<strong>de</strong> to sell appliances to the home consumer market. By 1982, VistaWorld was established as a significant force, especially in the Sun Belt area of thecountry.Dorotbea Jackson, vice-presi<strong>de</strong>nt for finance, had just completed a stormymeeting with Zane Hill, vice-presi<strong>de</strong>nt for marketing, and Samuel Licante, vicepresi<strong>de</strong>ntfor production. These corporate officers were responsible for production.These corporate officers were responsible for formulation of a policy that coveredworking capital assets: cash, marketable securities, accounts receivable, inventory,and prepaids, along with the financing of those assets. Going into the meeting, Ms.Jackson was aware of different viewpoints among the three vice-presi<strong>de</strong>nts, but shefelt any disagreements could be resolved with a minimum of difficulty. She was clearlywrong.Ms. Jackson realized it was important to un<strong>de</strong>rstand the viewpoints of Mr. Hill andMr. Licante and to improve her own knowledge of working capital management. Toaccomplish this, she authorized a meeting in which her staff assistants, Jarvis Levine,Sally Haas, and Selma Haydn, would present the arguments of the three vicepresi<strong>de</strong>nts.Mr. Levine was fue surrogate for Mr. Hill and would present the case foraggressive working capital management. Ms. Haas represented Ms. Jackson and44


would explain why a conservative approach would be best. Ms. Haydn took theposition of Mr. Licante and <strong>de</strong>monstrated why a middle-of-the-road approach wassound. To this end, Ms. Jackson prepared Exhibit 9.3, which provi<strong>de</strong>d parameters foraggressive, middIe-of-the road, and conservative working capital policies. It alsoprovi<strong>de</strong>d interest rate data for those policies.The working capital policy of Vista World appIied to the composition of thecurrent assets and to the manner in which they were to be financed. Any workingcapital position, be it aggressive, conservative, or middle-of-the-road, should beexplained not only in terms of working capital, but also in terms of how it might impactother areas of the firm. For fiscal 1988 (JuIy 1987-June 1988), Ms. Jackson toId thepreparers that total assets wouId be estimated at $180,000,000 and that earningsbefore interest and taxes wouId be estimated at $22,000,000.Selected ratios for househoId eIectric appliance manufacturers are presented inExhibit 9.4.EXHIBIT 9.1Vista World, Inc.Con<strong>de</strong>nsed Balance Sheets as of June 30 (In Millions)1986 1987Assets:Cash and Neat-Cash Items $ 12 $ 12Accounts Receivable, Net 51 55Inventory 63 66Other Current Assets 2 2Total Current Assets $128 $135Net Fixed Assets 41 40Other Assets 1 1Total Assets $170 $176Liabilities and Stockhol<strong>de</strong>rs' Equity:Tra<strong>de</strong> Accounts Payable $ 20 $ 21Notes Payable to Banks 6 6Product Warranty 7 7Current Maturity, Long-Term Debt 2 2Accruals and Other 9 9Total Current Liabilities $44 $ 48Long- Term Debt, Less Current Maturity 43 41Stockhol<strong>de</strong>rs' EquityPreferred Stock 18 18Common Equity 65 I 72Total Stockhol<strong>de</strong>rs' Equity $ 83 $90Total Liabilities and Stockhol<strong>de</strong>rs' $170 $17645

PARTE II. ESTUDIO DEL CASO:BAXTER FURNITURE COMPANYOBJETIVO:El estudiante, en el marco <strong>de</strong> su equipo <strong>de</strong> trabajo, evaluará financieramentepolíticas alternativas <strong>de</strong> capital <strong>de</strong> trabajoDURACIÓN : 3 horasBaxter Furniture is a medium-sized manufacturer of metal file cabinets for home andoffice use. The company sells its office furniture through regular channels, but its borneproducís are sold through mass merchandisers such as Wal-Mart un<strong>de</strong>r the tra<strong>de</strong>llame "Office Friends." Sales of both liDes h_ve grown substantially ayer the past 20years beca use of the increasing <strong>de</strong>mand for storage containers. Because the<strong>de</strong>mand for paper storage appears to be slowing, Baxter has recently moved into themanufacture and distribution of computer tape and diskette storage systems, which itbelieves te be the "hot" growth arca of the future.Although the firm has always been up to date in manufacturing and marketing,financial management has ten<strong>de</strong>d to take a back seat. In fact, the recently retired chieffinancial officer (CFO) joined the company right out of high school, and he worked bisway up fram an initial position of mail clerk. To revitalize the finance function, thecompany brought in Tony santini, who has an MBA and who had worked as treasurerfor several years at a competing company, as CFO.After spending several weeks familiarizing himself with Baxter' s operations,Santini conclu<strong>de</strong>d that one of his first tasks should be the <strong>de</strong>velopment of a rationalworking capital policy. With this in mind, he <strong>de</strong>ci<strong>de</strong>d to examine three alternativepolicies: (1) an aggressive policy, which calls for minimizing the amount of cash andinventories held, and for using only short-term <strong>de</strong>bt; (2) a conservative policy, whichcalls for holding relatively large amounts of cash and inventories, and for using onlylong-term <strong>de</strong>bt; andTable 2Estimated Sales Un<strong>de</strong>r Each Working Capital PolicyWorking Capital PolicyEconomy Aggressive Mo<strong>de</strong>rate ConservativeWeak $ 9,000,000 $11,000,000 $13,000,000Average 12,000,000 13,000,000 14,000,000Strong 13,000,000 14,500,000 16,000,00050


(3) a mo<strong>de</strong>rate policy, which falls between the two regardless of which working capitalpolicy is adopted, fixed costs are likely to be a function of the level of current assetsheld-the greater the level of current assets, the greater the fixed costs. This situationresults primarily from the need to hold the larger inventories in high-cost, <strong>de</strong>humidifiedwarehouses, and because of higher insurance costs. Santini estimates annual fixedcosts to be $4,000,000 un<strong>de</strong>r the aggressive policy, $4,500,000 un<strong>de</strong>r the mo<strong>de</strong>ratepolicy, and $5,000,000 with the conservative policy. Baxter's fe<strong>de</strong>ral-plus-state taxrate is 40 percent.Working capital policy will also affect the firm's ability to respond to varyingeconomic conditions. Inan average economy, Baxter's sales would be highest if thefilm used a conservative policy. Here the firm's inventoríes would be the highest, so itcould respond immediately to incoming or<strong>de</strong>rs and hence not risk losing salesbecause of stockouts. Baxter's cash and marketable securities would also be highestun<strong>de</strong>r a conservative policy. Further, if higher sales occurred because of theconservative policy, then accounts receivable would also be higher, even if creditstandards and credit terms were not changed.' Conversely, expected sales are lowestun<strong>de</strong>r an aggressive policy. Here the firm would have low cash and inventory levels,and hence some sales would be lost, which would <strong>de</strong>press the level of receivables.The different policies would algo cause sales to react differently to changingeconomic conditions. In a strong economy, the conservative approach with its higherinventories would be best for generating increased sales. On the other hand, anaggressive policy would inhibit the firm from responding to increased <strong>de</strong>mand. Table2 contains Santini' s best estimates of the sales levels un<strong>de</strong>r the alternative policiesfor three different states of the economy.Note that working capital policy actually consists of two in<strong>de</strong>pen<strong>de</strong>nt <strong>de</strong>cisions: (1) thelevel of current assets, and (2) the way in which the current assets are financed. In thiscase, to simplify the numerical analysis, the two in<strong>de</strong>pen<strong>de</strong>nt <strong>de</strong>cisions are treated as<strong>de</strong>pen<strong>de</strong>nt. Thus, a conservative policy implies a conservative financing policy, alongwith large holdings of current assets. Similarly, an aggressive policy signifies a heavyuse of shorterm <strong>de</strong>bt along with relatively small holdings of current assets.Wíth these estimates in mind, Santini must now draft a report to present to ]ím ]acksonand Baxter's board of directors. Assume that you areSantini's assistant,and he hasasked you to help him prepare the report. To help you get started, Santini hasgenerated the following list of questions. Your task now is to answer them, after whichyou must help Santini prepare the final report. Since you were hired by the previousCFO, you know that Santini does not have too much confi<strong>de</strong>nce in your knowledge orability. This assignment will give you a chance to prove your worth-in effect, yourperformance will start you on the path to the top, or out the door, so you really need toget it right.51


Questions1. The two most basic <strong>de</strong>cisions concerning working capital policy relate to the levelof current assets and the manner in which current assets are financed. Explain thedifferences between aggressive, mo<strong>de</strong>rate, and conservative working capital policiesin these two areas.2. Tony Santini has expressed some doubts as to how to characterize accountsreceivable in terms of conservative, mo<strong>de</strong>rate, or aggressive working capital policies.Obviously, the higher the level of sales, the higher the level of accounts receivable willbe. On the other hand, if the film takes <strong>de</strong>liberate actions which raise the level ofreceivables as a percentage of sales, would you characterize those actions asaggressive or conservative? Clearly, if the company takes the action of keeping morecash or 'inventories on hand, that is a conservative action, but is an action whichraises receivables conservative? Explain.3. Construct pro forma income statements for each working capital policy un<strong>de</strong>r anaverage economy, a weak economy, and a strong economy. Then, use these data tocalculate ROEs and basic earning power ratios (EBIT /Total assets). (Table 3provi<strong>de</strong>s a partially completed worksheet.) How could these data be used to help<strong>de</strong>ci<strong>de</strong> on the optimal working capital policy? Could you choose a working capitalpolicy on the basis of the information generated thus far?4. Assume that there is a 50 percent chance of an average economy, a 25 percentchance of a weak economy, and a 25 percent chance of a strong economy. What isthe expected ROE un<strong>de</strong>r each policy? How do the policies compare in terms ofrelative riskiness? (Hint: Riskiness can be expressed in terms of standard <strong>de</strong>viationand coefficient of variation.)5. Now assume that the Fe<strong>de</strong>ral Reserve, reacting to increasing inflationarypressures, tightens monetary policy shortly after Baxter has ma<strong>de</strong> its working capitalpolicy <strong>de</strong>cision. Any long-term <strong>de</strong>bt outstanding would be locked in at 13 percent, butBaxter would have to roll over any short-term <strong>de</strong>bt outstanding at the new rate, whichhas skyrocketed to 15 percent. Assuming an average economy, what would be theresulting ROE un<strong>de</strong>r each policy? Do these results affect your previous conclusionsabout the relative riskiness of the three alternatives?6. Like most companies of its size, Baxter has two primary sources of short-term<strong>de</strong>bt: tra<strong>de</strong> credit and bank loans. One supplier, which furnishes Baxter with $500,000(gross) of materials a year, offers terms of 3/10, net 60.a. What are Baxter's net daily purchases from this supplier? (Use a 360-day year.)b. What is the average level of Baxter's accounts payable to this supplier, assumingthe discount is taken? What is the average payables balance if the discount is nottaken? What are the dollar amounts of free credit and costly credit from this supplier?52


c. What is the approximate percentage cost of the costIy credit? What is the effectiveannual percentage cost?d. What conclusions do you reach from this analysis?7. In discussing a possible lean with the firm's banker, Santini leamed that the bankwould be willing to lend Baxter up to $5,000,000 for one year at a 10 percent nominal,or stated, rate. However, Santini failed to ask the banker about the specific terms ofthe loan. Assume that Baxter will borrow $2,500,000.a. What would the effective interest rate be on the lean if it was a simple interest loan?If the banker offered to lend the money for 6 months, but with a guaranteed renewal atthe same 10 percent simple interest rate, would this be as good as, better than, orworse than a straight one-year loan at 10 percent simple interest? Explain.b. What would be the effective interest rate if the loan was a discount loan? What faceamount would be nee<strong>de</strong>d to provi<strong>de</strong> Baxter with $2,500,000 of available funds?c. Assume now that the loan terms call for an installment loan with add-on interest and12 equal monthly payments, with the first payment due at the end of the first month.What would be Baxter's monthly payments? What would be the approximatepercentage cost of this loan? What would be its effective annual rate? Would this typeof loan be suitable if Baxter needs all of the money for the entire year? What type ofasset is most suitably financed by an installment-type loan?d. Now assume that the bank charges simple interest, but it requires a 20 percentcompensating balance.(1) Suppose Baxter does not carry any cash balances at that bank. How much:wouldthe firm have to borrow to obtain the nee<strong>de</strong>d $2,500,000 while meeting itscompensating balance requirement? What is the effective annual percentage late onthis loan?(2) Now suppose Baxter currentIy carries an average cash balance of $75,000 at thebank, and that those funds can be used as a part of the compensating balancerequirement. What effect does this have on the amount borrowed, and on the effectivecost of the loan?(3) Retum to the scenario in which Baxter currentIy maintains its working cashbalances in another bank. Now assume that the bank from which Baxter would borrowpays 5 percent simple interest on all checking account balances. What would be theeffective percentage cost of the loan in this situation?e. Finally, assume that the bank charges discount interest, and it algo requires a 20percent compensating balance. How much would Baxter have to borrow, and whatwould be the effective interest Tale un<strong>de</strong>r these conditions?53


8. Assume now that you have had some additional discussions with Tony Santini, inwhich he told you he would like more information on the ROE and the riskiness of thealtemative working capital policies un<strong>de</strong>r different sets of assumptions. For example,he asked you to assume that sales are in<strong>de</strong>pen<strong>de</strong>nt of working capital policy, andthen to <strong>de</strong>termine the expected ROE and standard <strong>de</strong>viation of ROE un<strong>de</strong>r eachpolicy if the sales estimates are $11,000,000 for a weak economy, $13,000,000 foran average economy, and $14,500,000 for a strong economy. Similarly, he asked youto assume that a different manufacturing process is used, causing the mix of fixed andvariable costs to change. Using the original sales estimate, he wanted to know whatthe expected ROE and standard <strong>de</strong>viation of ROE would be un<strong>de</strong>r the three policies ifvariable costs increased to 70 percent of sales (in all cases), and fixed costs<strong>de</strong>creased to $1,000,000 un<strong>de</strong>r an aggressive policy, to $1,500,000 un<strong>de</strong>r themo<strong>de</strong>rate policy, and to $2,000,000 un<strong>de</strong>r the conservative policy? How would youranswers to these questions, and similar questions, be used by top managers as theyactually make the working capital policy <strong>de</strong>cision? Quantify your answer if you haveaccess to the Lotus mo<strong>de</strong>l, but just discuss the situation if you do not.9. What is your recommendation regarding a working capital policy for BaxterFurniture, and in what forro should the company raise short-term <strong>de</strong>bt? You really donot have enough information to make a <strong>de</strong>finitive statement when answering thisquestion, but assume that Santini wants you to at least make a preliminaryrecommendation, which can be modified later if necessary.CALIFICACION DELA PRÁCTICAFIRMA Y NOMBRE DELPROFESOR:54


PARTE III. ESTUDIO DEL CASO:KIDDYLAND CLOTHES , INC.OBJETIVO:El estudiante, en el marco <strong>de</strong> su equipo <strong>de</strong> trabajo, evaluará financieramente ytomará <strong>de</strong>cisiones sobre políticas <strong>de</strong> crédito a clientesDURACIÓN : 3 horasKiddyland Clothes manufactures children's clothing, including such accessories assocks and belts. The company has been in business since 1952, mainly supplyingprívate label merchandise to large <strong>de</strong>partment stores. In 1987, however, the companystarted producing its own line of children's clothing un<strong>de</strong>r the brand name"Yuppiewear." An increasing number of two-income families has been accompaniedby an increasing <strong>de</strong>mand for high-status children's clothing, and Kiddy land was thefirst in its field to recognize this trend.When Kiddyland's sales were primarily for private labels, the firm's financialmanager did not have to worry much about its overall credit policy. Most of its saleswere negotiated directly with the <strong>de</strong>partment stores' buyers, and the resultingcontracts contained specific credit terms. The new line, however, represented asignificant change-it is sold through numerous wholesalers un<strong>de</strong>r standard creditterms, so credit policy per se has become important. Lisa Wright, the assistanttreasurer, has been assigned the task of reviewing the company's current credit policyand recommending any <strong>de</strong>sirable changes.Kiddyland's current credit terms are 2/10, net 30. Thus, wholesalers buying fromKiddyland receive a 2 percent discount off the gross purchase price if they pay within10 days, while customers who do not take the discount must par the full amount within30 days. The company does check the financial strength of potential customers, butits standards for granting credit are not high. Similarly, it does have procedures forcollecting past due accounts, but its collections policy could best be <strong>de</strong>scríbed aspassive. Gross sales to wholesalers average about $10 million a year, and 50percent of the paying wholesalers (by dollar volume) take the discount and pay, onaverage, on Day 10. Another 30 percent of the payers generally pay the full amount onDay 30, while 20 percent tend to stretch Kiddyland's terms and do not actualIy pay, onaverage, until Dar 40. Two percent of Kiddyland's gross sales to wholesalers end upas bad <strong>de</strong>bt losses.Don McCarthy, the treasurer, and Wrighi's boss, is convinced that the firm shouldtighten its credit policy. According to McCarthy, good customers will pay on timeregardless of the terms, and the ones who would complain about a tighter polícy areprobably not good customers. Wright must make an analysis and then recommend acourse of action. For political reasons, she has <strong>de</strong>ci<strong>de</strong>d to focus on a tighter policy,55


un<strong>de</strong>r which a 4 percent discount would be offered to customers who pay cash on<strong>de</strong>lívery (COO) and 20 days of credit would be offered to customers who elect not totake the discount. Also, un<strong>de</strong>r the new policy stricter credit standards would beapplied, and a tougher colIection policy would be enforced. This policy has beendubbed 4/COD, net 20.McCarthy likes this policy-he believes that increasing the discount would both bringin new customers and encourage more of Kiddyland's existing customers to take thediscount. As a result, he believes that sales to wholesalers would increase from $10million to $11 million annualIy, that 60 percent of the paying customers would take thediscount, that 30 percent of the payers would pay on Day 20, that 10 percent wouldpay late on Day 30, and that bad <strong>de</strong>bt losses would be reduced to 1 percent of grosssales. McCarthy's is not the only position, though-Emie Bush, the sales manager, hasargued for an easier credit policy. Bush thinks that the proposed change would resuItin a drastic loss of sales and profits.Kiddyland's variable cost-to-sales ratio is 75 percent; its pre-tax cost of carryingreceivables is 12 percent; and the company can expand without any problems (or anycost increases) because it can subcontract production that it cannot handle in-house.Further, McCarthy is convinced that neither the variable cost ratio nor the cost ofcapital would change as a result of a credit polícy change. Ernie Bush, however, thinksthat the variable cost ratio might increase significantIy if sales rise so much that thecompany is forced to use outsi<strong>de</strong> supplíers. Also, Bush, based on discussions withthe cost accounting staff, thinks that the variable cost ratio might rise as high as 90percent this coming year, even without an increase in sales, due to higher labor costsun<strong>de</strong>r a contract now being negotiated. Everyone agrees that there is líttle chance thatcosts will <strong>de</strong>cline, regardless of the credit policy <strong>de</strong>cision. Kiddyland's fe<strong>de</strong>ral-plusstatetax Tale is 40 percent.Now Wright must conduct an analysis to estimate the effect of the proposed creditpolicy change on Kiddyland's profitability. She and McCarthy are very concemedabout the analysis, both because of its imporlance to the company and also becauseof its "polítical implications" -the sales and production people have been lobbyingagainst any credit tightening because they do not want to take a chance on losingsales and having to cut production, and also because they question the assumptionsMcCarthy wants to use. Therefore, Wright knows that her report will be criticallyreviewed. Working with McCarthy, she prepared the following set of questions for useas a gui<strong>de</strong> in drafting her report Put yourself in her position and then answer thefollowing questions. As you answer each question, think about the follow-up questionsthat other people, such as those in sales and production, might ask when the report isbeing reviewed.56


Questions1. What are the four variables which make up a firm' s credit policy? How likely (andhow quickly) are competitors to respond to a change in each variable, and is theirresponse likely to be the same for a change toward tightness as one towardlooseness?2. What is Kiddyland' s current days sales outstanding (DSO) (also called averagecollection period [ACP])? What would be the expected OSO if the credit policychange were ma<strong>de</strong>?3. What is the dollar amount of bad <strong>de</strong>bt losses un<strong>de</strong>r the current policy? What wouldbe the expected bad <strong>de</strong>bt losses un<strong>de</strong>r the proposed policy?4. What is the cost of granting discounts un<strong>de</strong>r the current policy? What would be theexpected cost un<strong>de</strong>r the new policy?5. What is Kiddyland's dallar cost of carrying receivables un<strong>de</strong>r the current policy?What would be the expected cost un<strong>de</strong>r the new policy? (Use a 360-day year.)6. What is the expected incremental profit associated with the proposed change incredit terms? Should Kiddyiand make the change? (Hint: Construct incomestatements un<strong>de</strong>r each policy, and focus on the expected change. See Table 1 for agui<strong>de</strong>.)Table 1 Incremental Profit AnalysisProposed CurrentPolicy Policy DifferenceGross sales X 10,000,000. XDiscounts taken X 98,000. XNet sales X 9,902,000.

XNet earnings before taxes X 2,147,000. XTaxes (40%) X 858,800. XAfter-tax profit X 1,288,200. X57


7. Does your analysis up to this point consi<strong>de</strong>r the risks involved with a credit policychange? If not, how could risk be assessed and incorporated into the analysis?8. Suppose the firm makes the change to 04/COD, net 20, but Kiddyland'scompetitors react by making similar changes in their terms. The net result is thatKiddyland's gross sales remain at the current $10 million leve!. If the remain<strong>de</strong>r ofWright' s assumptions are correct, what would be the impact on Kiddyland'sprofitability?9. Wright expects both the sales and production managers to question herassumptions, so she would like to know which variables are most critical in the sensethat profitability is very sensitive to them. Then, she would like to know just how far offher assumption could be before the change to a tighter credit policy would beincorrect. If you have access to the Lotus mo<strong>de</strong>l, do some sensitivity analyses,changing one variable at a time while leaving the others at their base case values.Which variables are most important in terms of their effects on profit, and how largean error could there be in the assumptions which you regard as being most criticalbefore the <strong>de</strong>cision should be reversed?10. AIso, if she could, Wright would like to have a better basis for the assumptionsused in her report-as it stands, all she has to reir on is McCarthy's judgment, which iscontrary to that of two other senior executives. What are some actions that Wrightmight take to improve the accuracy of her forecasts?Thc following question prescnts an algebraic approach to analyzing changes incredit policy. Answer it only if it is assigned by your instructor.11. As an altemative to constructing profit statements, an algebraic approach hasbeen <strong>de</strong>veloped that focuses directly on the change in profits. To use this approach, itis first necessary to <strong>de</strong>fine the following symbols:So = current gross sales.SN = new gross sales after the change in credit policy. Note that SNcan be greater than or less than So.V = variable costs as a percentage of gross sales. V inclu<strong>de</strong>s production costs,inventory carrying costs, the cost of administering the credit <strong>de</strong>partment, ano all othervariable costs except bao <strong>de</strong>bt losses, receivables carrying costs, ano the cost ofgiving discounts.1 - V = contribution margin, or the proportion of gross sales that goes toward coveringfixed costs ano increasing profits.K = cost of financing the firrn' s receivables.DSO°=current days sales outstandingDSON=new average days sales outstanding after change in credit policy.Bo = current bao <strong>de</strong>bt losses as a proportion of current gross sales.58


BN = new bao <strong>de</strong>bt losses as a proportion of new gross sales.Po = proportion of current-collected gross sales that are discountsales.PN = proportion of new-collected gross sales that are discountsales.Do = current discount offered.DN = discount offered un<strong>de</strong>r new policy.T = tax rafeCalculate values for the incremental change in the firrn's investment in receivables, M,ano the incremental change in after-tax profits, _P, as follows:M = V[(DSOr. - D500)(50/360)] + V[(D5ÜN)(5N - 50Y360] .P = (1 - T)(5N - So)(1 - V) -I - (BN5N - BaSo) - [(DN5NPN(1 - BN) - DoSoPo(1 - Bo»] .Note that, in the profit equation, the first term, (1 - T)(5N - 50)(1 - V), is the incrementalafter-tax gross profit, the secano term, _I, is the incremental cost of carryingreceivables, the third terrn, BN5N - B050, is the incremental bad <strong>de</strong>bt losses, ano the<strong>las</strong>t terrn, DN5NPN(1 - BN) DoSoPo(1 - Bo), is the incremental cost of discounts.'Use the equations presented here to estimate the change in profits associatedwith the new policy.'Note that the analysis presented here is somewhat simplified in that the opportunity casi of the incremental investment inreceivables from current customers is not consi<strong>de</strong>red.For a complete discussion of the analysis, see Eugene F.

Jay Carpenter, vicepresi<strong>de</strong>nt for finance of Advanced Technology, was consi<strong>de</strong>ring two discounted cashflowapproaches (net present value and internal Tale of return) for measuringproposed capital expenditures. MI. Carpenter conclu<strong>de</strong>d that, once he had estimatedproject cash flows, his biggest problem would be to choose the appropriate discountTale to use with the net present value method or to select ¡he proper hurdle Tale touse with the internal rate of return method. He felt that it would be wise to consi<strong>de</strong>r adiscount Tale or a hurdle Tale for Advanced Technology only after first discussing thecompany's cost of capital. MI. Carpenter, as chairman of the finance committee, hadplanned to present an estimate of the company's cost of capital at the next committeemeeting on January 28, 1984.Advanced Technology manufactures office automation systems and equipment. Inaddition to introducing a newly <strong>de</strong>signed mainframe computer during the <strong>las</strong>t fewyears, the company has aggressively increased its research in mini-computers andword processors. These products are in high growth markets and the firm'sexpenditures for these projects have more than proveo their worth. AdvancedTechnology is recognized by those in the industry as one of the leading and mostsuccessful companies in the market. Many experts in the high-tech industry ha veprojected a potential bonanza for mini computers and word processors over the next10 years. Thus, the company plans to invest heavily in research and <strong>de</strong>velopment farthe next 5 years.Mr. Carpenter began his assignment by establishing the sequence of his workschedule: (1) Determine the capital structure (proportions of long-term financing); (2)Compute the costs of the individual components of the capital structure; and (3)Combine these individual component costs to obtain the weighted average cost ofcapital.Mr. Carpenter i<strong>de</strong>ntifica 2 alternatives to specify the proportions of the capitalstructure: Dock weights and the CUITem proportions of the market values of the firm'soutstanding securities. Book weights can be obtainedfrom the balance sheet in Exhibit 1. Exhibit 3 shows that in 1983 the common stockhad tra<strong>de</strong>d within a rather naITOW range and centered on the closing price of $14.50.62


The price of the preferred stock had remained constant for some time at $20 pershare. Standard & Poor's recently upgra<strong>de</strong>d the company's bond rating from Baa toA, which caused Ihe price of the bond to increase sharply from $ 80-85 range to arecent quote of $ 90.Mr. Carpenter estimated that the current yield to maturity for the company's bond is12.4 percent before taxes. The company pays $2.25 divi<strong>de</strong>nd (0.09 x $25) per shareof the preferred stock. interest and divi<strong>de</strong>nds are directly measurable componentcosts of <strong>de</strong>bt and preferred stock. However, there is no such measurable element forthe COSí of common stock, because divi<strong>de</strong>nd <strong>de</strong>clarations on common stock arema<strong>de</strong> at the discretion of a firm 's board of directors. Thus, the COSí of commonstock is more difficult to measure. Carpenter felt Chal there was no best way to makeIbis estimate. After he had examined a number of methods to compute me cost ofequity, he <strong>de</strong>ci<strong>de</strong>d to use the discounted cash-flow approach (divi<strong>de</strong>nd growthmo<strong>de</strong>l):Ke = (D1/P0)+gwhere k. = the cost of equity capital, DI = divi<strong>de</strong>nd per share of common stockexpected at the end of one year, PO' = current price per share of common stock, andg = expected growth rate in divi<strong>de</strong>nds. Carpenter assembled the data in Exhibit 3 tohelp him estimate the cost of equity capital using the discounted cash-flow approach.EXHIBIT 1Advanced Technology CompanyBalance Sheet(December 31. 1983)Cash $ 1,500.000Accounts receivable 3.500,000Inventory 5,000,000Total Current Assets 10,000,000Gross plant and equipment $47,300,000Less: accumulated <strong>de</strong>preciation 7,300,000Net plant and equipment $40,000,000Total assets $50,000,000Accounts payable $ 3,500,000Accruals 1,500,000Total current liabilities $ 5,000,0008% Debentures $ 20,000,0009% Preferred stock ($25 par;400.000 shares issued and outstanding) 10,000,000Common stock ($2.50 par; 2,000,000 sharesissued and outstanding) 5,000,000Retained earnings 10,000,000Total liabilities and net worth $ 5000000063

PARTE II. ESTUDIO DEL CASO:BELTWAY TECHNOLOGIES, INC.OBJETIVO:El estudiante, en el marco <strong>de</strong> su equipo <strong>de</strong> trabajo, <strong>de</strong>terminará el costo <strong>de</strong> capital ylo empleará en la evaluación <strong>de</strong> alternativas <strong>de</strong> inversión en bienes <strong>de</strong> capitalDURACIÓN : 3 horasBeltway Technologies was foun<strong>de</strong>d 10 years ago by a group of scientists an<strong>de</strong>ngineers in the Washington, D.C. area. The firm's goal was to attain a lea<strong>de</strong>rshipposition in the electronic imaging market. Electronic imaging is a specializedtechnology that fills an important need for major firms marketing medical diagnosticimaging systems. By concentrating technology and production resources, Beltwaywas able to produce a superior film recor<strong>de</strong>r at a price below its competitors'<strong>de</strong>velopment and manufacturing costs. Beltway quickly became the lea<strong>de</strong>r in thevi<strong>de</strong>o photography market, providing original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) suchas GE, Philips, Toshiba, and Siemens with the hard-copy film recording <strong>de</strong>vices usedwith their magnetic resonance and CAT scanners.Over the years, Belrway noted that some aspect of electronic imaging willeventually be used by almost all businesses that use computers. As the need<strong>de</strong>velops to input image data on a computer, or to output image data to hard copy,potential applications of BeItway's technologies are created. Recognizing trus,Beltway's management is positioning the firm both for broa<strong>de</strong>r participation inmedical diagnostic imaging and for new applications in computer graphics andindustrial imaging.At present, Beltway has 2 divisions: (1) The Medical Applications Division and (2) thenewer Industrial Applications Division. The goal of the Medical Applications Divisionis to expand the number and use of BeItway's products in market areas in which thefirm currently has a presence. The division's most recent product is a <strong>las</strong>er-basedimaging system that will support the digital radiography systems of the future. With thissystem, radiologists are no longer constrained by the limitations of direct X-rayexposure on film. Rather, computers now process digitized electronic X-ray irnages,amplify diagnostic information, and display the result on a CRT. When the most useful"picture" is obtained, Beltway's irnaging system is used to create the hard copy.67


Table 1Beltway Technologies: Balance Sheet for the YearEn<strong>de</strong>d December 31, 1989(in Millions of Dollars)Cash $ 5.1 Accounts payable $ 3.8Accounts receivable 26.4 Accruals 5.0Inventory 56.1 Notes payable 1.3Current assets $ 87.6 Current liabilities $ 10.1Net fixed assets 26.3 Long-term <strong>de</strong>bt 40.8Preferred stock 9.7Common stock 53.3Total assets $ 113.9 Total claims $ 113.9The Industrial Applications Division's goal is to become a market force in therapidly <strong>de</strong>veloping areas of computer graphics and industrial irnaging. The basictechnology used here has many similarities to that used in medical imaging, andhence Beltway's managers predict a rosy future for this division. Two products arealready being sold-a personal color recor<strong>de</strong>r and a thermal transfer color printer.Inten<strong>de</strong>d for use with the IBM-PC line, these products make fast, high-quality, in-housegraphics a reality.Thus far, Beltway's growth has been somewhat helter-skelter, with superiortechnological know-how easily overcoming any <strong>de</strong>ficiencies in managerial <strong>de</strong>cisionmaking. Now, as competition stiffens and the firm moves into uncharted waters,Beltwav’s board of directors is keenly aware that the firm must apply state-of-the-arttechniques to its managerial <strong>de</strong>cisions as well as to its product lines. As a firstpriority, the board has directed Beltway's CEO, John Caks, to <strong>de</strong>velop an estímate forthe firm's cost of capital, which the board plans to use at its next meeting when it willfocus on new product <strong>de</strong>cisions. Caks, in turn, has directed Beltway's financialmanager, Bill Coates, to have a cost of capital estímate on his <strong>de</strong>sk in a week.To begin, Bill reviewed Beltway's 1989 balance sheet, which is contained in Table1. Next, Bill assembled the following relevant data:(1) The firm's tax rate is 40 percent.(2) Beltway's 12 percent semiannual coupon bonds with 15 years remaining tomaturity are not actively tra<strong>de</strong>d. However, a block did tra<strong>de</strong> <strong>las</strong>t week at a price of$1,153.72 per bond.(3) Beltway uses short-term <strong>de</strong>bt only to fund cyclical working capital needs.68


(4) The firm's 10 percent, $100 par value, quarterly divi<strong>de</strong>nd perpetual preferredstock is tra<strong>de</strong>d on the American Stock Exchange (AMEX). Its current price is$113.10 per share; however, Beltway would incur flotation costs of $2.00 per share ona new issue.(5) Beltway's common stock is currently selling on the AMEX at $50 per share. Thefirm's <strong>las</strong>t divi<strong>de</strong>nd (Do) was $1.73, and divi<strong>de</strong>nds are expected to grow at roughly a10 percent annual rate in the foreseeable future.(6) The firm's historical beta, as measured by a stock analyst who follows the firm, is1.2. The current yield on long-term T-bonds is 7.0 percent, and a prominentinvestment banking firm has recently estimated the market risk premium to be 6percentage points.(7) The required rate of return on an average (A-rated) company's long-term <strong>de</strong>bt is9 percent.(8) Beltway's investment banker believes that a new common stock issue wouldrequire flotation costs, including market pressure and negative signaling, of 30percent.(9) The firm's market value target capital structure is 30 percent <strong>de</strong>bt, 10 percentpreferred stock, and 60 percent common stock.(10) The firm is forecasting retained earnings of $1,200,000 and a <strong>de</strong>preciationexpense of $3,000,000 for the coming year.With these data at hand, consi<strong>de</strong>r the following questions which Bill mustaddress in his analysis.Questions1. What sources of capital should be inclu<strong>de</strong>d in Beltway's cost of capital estímate?Should the component cost estímates be before tax or after tax? Should they behistorical (embed<strong>de</strong>d) or new (marginal)?2. Consi<strong>de</strong>r Beltway's cost of <strong>de</strong>bt.a. What is the cost estímate for this component?b. Should flotation costs be inclu<strong>de</strong>d? Explain.c. Should the nominal cost of <strong>de</strong>bt or the effective rate be used? Explain.d. How valid is the estimate based on 15-year bonds if Beltway typically issues 30-69


year long-term <strong>de</strong>bt?e. Suppose Beltway's outstanding <strong>de</strong>bt had not been recently tra<strong>de</strong>d. What othermethods could be used to estimate the firm's <strong>de</strong>bt cost?f. Would it matter if the bonds currently outstanding were callable? Explain.3. Now consi<strong>de</strong>r the firm's cosí of preferred stock.a. What is the preferred cosí estímate?b. Beltway's preferred stock is more risky to investors than its <strong>de</strong>bt, yet its beforetaxyield to investors is lower than the yield on Beltway’s <strong>de</strong>bt. Does this suggest thatyou have ma<strong>de</strong> a mistake in your calculations?c. Now suppose that Beltway's preferred had a mandatory re<strong>de</strong>mption provisionwhich specified that the firm must re<strong>de</strong>em the issue in 5 years at a price of $110 pershare. What would Beltway's cost of preferred have been in this situation?4. Now consi<strong>de</strong>r the cosí of common equity.a. Why is there a cosí associated with retained earnings?b. What is Beltway's estimated cosí of retained earnings using the CAPMapproach?c. Why is fue T-bond rate a better estímate of the risk-free rate thanthe T-bill rate?d. How do historical betas, adjusted historical betas, and fundamental betasdiffer? Do you think Beltway's historical beta is a good measure of its future marketrisk? Explain.e. How can the market risk premium be estímated?5. a. What is the discounted cash flow (DCF) cost of retained earnings estimate?b. Suppose that Beltway, aver the <strong>las</strong>t few years, has averaged 15 percent returnon equity (ROE) and paid out about 20 percent of net income as divi<strong>de</strong>nds. Can thisinformarían be used to help estimate the firm's future growth rate, g?6. What is the bond-yield-plus-risk-premium estimate for Beltway's cost of retaine<strong>de</strong>arnings?7. What is your final estímate for ks? Explain how you weighed the estimates of thethree methods.8. What is the estímate for Beltway's cosí of new common stock, ke?70


9. a. Construct Beltway's marginal cost of capital (MCQ) schedule. At what amount ofnew investment would Beltway be forced to issue new common stock? (Ignore<strong>de</strong>preciation at this point.)b. Would Beltway's MCC schedule remain constant beyond the retained earningsbreak point regardless of the amount of new capital required? (Again, ignore<strong>de</strong>preciation.)10. What impact does <strong>de</strong>preciation have on Beltway's MCC schedule? Would theinclusion of <strong>de</strong>preciation affect the acceptability of proposed capital projects?11. Could the overall corporate cost of capital <strong>de</strong>veloped in Question 9 be used at thedivisional level? That is, is a single cost of capital appropriate for both the MedicalApplications Division and the Industrial Applications Division? If not, what type ofadjustment should be ma<strong>de</strong>?12. What are Beltway’s book value weights of <strong>de</strong>bt, preferred stock, and commonstock? (Hint: Consi<strong>de</strong>r only long-term sources of capital.) Should the book value or themarket value weights be used in estimating a firm's overall cost of capital?EVALUACIÓN FINAL:Cada respuesta correcta se calificará con 10 puntos, los cuales se sumarán y se dividirán entre elnúmero <strong>de</strong> <strong>las</strong> respuestas que <strong>de</strong>bían estar correctasCALIFICACION DELA PRÁCTICAFIRMA Y NOMBRE DELPROFESOR:71


PARTE III. ESTUDIO DEL CASO:YARDLEY BROTHERS, INC.OBJETIVO:El estudiante, en el marco <strong>de</strong> su equipo <strong>de</strong> trabajo, <strong>de</strong>terminará el costo <strong>de</strong> capital ylo empleará en la evaluación <strong>de</strong> alternativas <strong>de</strong> inversión en bienes <strong>de</strong> capitalDURACIÓN : 3 horasYardley Brothers, Inc., a specialty food company headquartered in Dayton, Ohio, wasrecognized in the United States and Westem Europe as a lea<strong>de</strong>r in the manufactureand distribution of seasonings and flavored products for the food industry. Processingfacilities were found in 11locations in the United States. The company wasconsi<strong>de</strong>ring building a plant near Amsterdam as its first site in Westem Europe. Thecompany was organized joto two divisions: Grocery Products, which accounted for 75percent of sales, and Food Service, which was responsible for thé remain<strong>de</strong>r of thesales. A balance sheet and an income statement are incIu<strong>de</strong>d as Exhibit 27.1 andExhibit 27.2. Selected statistics on Yardley Brothers are given as Exhibit 27.3.During the 1980s, Yardley Brothers benefited tremendously from the increasingsophistication of American consumers. Since this group had both the means and the<strong>de</strong>sire to try different types of foods, new and exotic seasonings were <strong>de</strong>man<strong>de</strong>d. Theproduct could also be used to spice up recipes that were low in cost when measuredon a per serving basis. The company believed the willingness of consumers toexperiment would continue during the 1990s. They felt that this would lead to moreethnic types of cooking and the use of more recipes from gourmet magazines. Thisline of thinking gave Yardley Brothers a salid base from which to expand its GroceryProducts Division.The Food Service Division manufactured and distributed seasonings and saucesas weIl as portion control and specialty products. This division had experienced onlymo<strong>de</strong>st sales expansion during the 1980s, as growth was tied to fast-food outIets andthey had grown at a relatively mo<strong>de</strong>rate rate. Management knew that for this divisionto expand, costs must be kept competitive. Management also realized that newproducts had to be <strong>de</strong>veloped to enable the division to experience growth, even if fastfood remained a mature industry. Although studies had been done to <strong>de</strong>terminewhether the firm should move into activities distinctly apart from grocery products andfood service, management had always <strong>de</strong>ci<strong>de</strong>d to remain in those two areas. Itbelieved that approach would aIlow profits to be earned without taking the risksassociated with new projects.During February, Laurie Benston, vice-presi<strong>de</strong>nt of finance, consi<strong>de</strong>red various73


ways to finance several investment projects. Inclu<strong>de</strong>d in her list were a newprocessing plant in Westem Europe, mo<strong>de</strong>mization ofpresent processing facilities,the addition of a new plant in Florida or Georgia, and a major addition to workingcapital. The addition to working capital alternative involved providing funds to financeinventory growth necessary to expand the firm's line of seasonings.Since Ms. Benston had requested capital estimates from the two operatingdivisions, each of the division heads had submitted proposals. From theirrecommendations, Ms. Benston had <strong>de</strong>ci<strong>de</strong>d on the four projects previouslymentioned. Her job then was to assemble the best financial package and to present itto the presi<strong>de</strong>nt of Yardley Brothers, Jackie Cal mire. Ms. Benston planned to havethe report completed by March 15 for negotiations beginning in mid-April.Ms. Benston believed the amount of funds nee<strong>de</strong>d would be about $30,000,000.Of the total, $10,000,000 would be required for the Amsterdam plant, $9,000,000 forthe plant in the Southeast, $7,000,000 for mo<strong>de</strong>mization, and $4,000,000 for theinventory addition.Her first contact was Irving Goldman, vice-presi<strong>de</strong>nt of the National Bank of Ohio,the firm's major banking connection. The bank was Yardley Brothers' principal sourceof short- and intermediate-type <strong>de</strong>bí. In 1988, the bank was also instrumental inhelping to secure, on favorable terms, $15,000,000 in bond funds to replace shorttermbank notes.Mr. Goldman informed Ms. Benston that the bank would lend a maximum of$15,000,000 at 8 percent over the prime rate, which was presently at 9 percent. Therate reftected the increased financial leverage incurred by the firm over the <strong>las</strong>t 3years. The loan, beginning on July 1, 1989, would mature in 10 years and would bepayable in semiannual installments of $750,000, plus outstanding interest on theunpaid principal.Certain requirements and restrictions would be imposed on the loan: (1) netcurrent assets must be maintained at a level of $5,000,000, (2) the company wouldnot <strong>de</strong>clare cash divi<strong>de</strong>nds or purchase its own common stock in amounts in excessof 40 percent of net income in any one year, and (3) capital expenditures in any oneyear must not exceed 100 percent of <strong>de</strong>preciation charges, without thebank'sapproval. The covenant applied to the mo<strong>de</strong>mization of plant facilities, not to the twoplants being constructed. The loan would be unsecured.Mr. Goldman stated that for Yardley Brothers to receive these funds, the firmwould have to 'raise the $15,000,000 from retained eamings and securities junior tothe bank's position. Since eamings less divi<strong>de</strong>nd payout was estimated at$5,000,000 for the coming year, the remaining $10,000,000 would have to come fromjunior securities. Although Ms. Benston had some reservations about the bankpackage, especially the restriction on capital expenditures, she <strong>de</strong>ci<strong>de</strong>d to accept74


informally the bank's commitment and to begin the search for other funds.Although there were a number of ways to raise the nee<strong>de</strong>d funds, threepossibilities seemed the most likely: preferred stock, common stock, andsubordinated convertible <strong>de</strong>bt. To discuss the type of financial package the firm mightexpect, Ms. Benston contacted Hargrow & Sacks, a regional un<strong>de</strong>rwritingorganization located in Columbus, Ohio.Craig Belton of the un<strong>de</strong>rwriting firm explained that a common stock issue wouldnet the firm $60 per share. This was found by subtracting a $5 flotation cost from thecurrent price of $65. Preferred stock, sold at $100 par, would have a 10.5 percentrate and would be cumulative. Convertible subordinated <strong>de</strong>bentures would carry arate of 9.5 percent, with a conversion price ranging between $72 and $78 per share.Ms. Benston believed that conversion would take place within one or two years, sinceforecasts for the firm and the stock market were favorable.In preparing her report, Ms. Benston's job was to <strong>de</strong>termine which of the followingfinancial packages would produce the lowest cost of capital: (1) <strong>de</strong>bt and commonstock, (2) <strong>de</strong>bt and preferred stock, or (3) <strong>de</strong>bt and subordinated <strong>de</strong>bentures. Thispresented her with difficult problems that nee<strong>de</strong>d resolution, if she were to besuccessful.Ms. Benston knew two ways to calculate the cost of common equity: the Gordonmo<strong>de</strong>l and the capital asset pricing mo<strong>de</strong>l. There was also the question of the weightsthat should be assigned to each component of the cost of capital. Should the weightsbe based on the marginal funds being raised or based on the optimal mix of funds? Ifoptimal weights were used, should she use book weights or market weights?Ms. Benston won<strong>de</strong>red if the projects being financed would effect the cost ofcapital by changing the business risk of the firm If this were the case, she knew theeffect should be incorporated into the cost of capital calculation. While thinking aboutthis, she was interrupted by one of her staff members asking how <strong>de</strong>preciation wouldfigure in the calculation.After much effort, Ms. Benston was able to compile some useful information.Exhibit 27.4, "Selected information concerning the cost of capital calculation," was theresult.Selected ratios for spices and seasonings manufacturers and wholesalers arepresented in Exhibit 27.5.75

ESTUDIO DEL CASO:FLORAL CONCEPTS, INC.OBJETIVO:El estudiante, en el marco <strong>de</strong> su equipo <strong>de</strong> trabajo, <strong>de</strong>terminará y evaluaráestructuras <strong>de</strong> capital <strong>de</strong> capitalDURACIÓN : 3 horasFloral Concepts, Inc., a producer of high-quality artificial flowers, was foun<strong>de</strong>din 1981 by Edward Flowers, presi<strong>de</strong>nt and chief executive officer, and Susan Malley,senior vice presi<strong>de</strong>nt. In 1980, when Flowers was working on his PhD in materialsscience, he discovered a way to use acetate cloth to make a new type of artificialflower. Flower reíaIs and lea ves could be formed from acetate cloth that had beentreated with a p<strong>las</strong>tic resin, allowing the individual piece to reta in its shape anddurability, but still have the texture and feel of silk. Flowers <strong>de</strong>veloped a prototype, andhe then asked several friends in the florist business to evaluate the producto Theproduction cosí of the acetate flowers was les s than one-fourth of the cosí of highqualitysilk flowers, Jet the two were virtually indistinguishable, so the florists werequite enthusiastic. With the strong endorsement of the florists, Flowers abandonedplans for a teaching career and teamed up with Malley, who had strong financial andmanagerial talents, to form Floral Concepts, Ine. Flowers currently owns 30 percent ofthe stock, Malley owns 25 percent, other employees own 10 percent, and the remaining35 percent is held by the public and tra<strong>de</strong>s in the over-the-collnter market.Although the company has experienced reasonable growth, Flowers andMalley do not think they have even scratched the surface of the potential market forhigh-quality artificial flowers. Further, in early 1989, Flowers <strong>de</strong>veloped a revolutionaryproduction method for manufacturing certain types of acetate flowers. With the newprocess, it will be possible to form the very complex shapes required for artificialpeonies, hyacinths, dahlias, and other flowers with small, curved reíaIs. These flowersare very popular in live arrangements, but mol<strong>de</strong>d p<strong>las</strong>tic imitations are not of highenough quality to permit florists to use them in artificial bouquets.Table 11990 Sales Estimates for Floral Concepts' New Acetate FlowersProbability0.1, 0.2, 0.4, 0.2, 0.1Unit Sales (in Gross)80,000 ,110,000 ,150,000, 190,000, 220,00085


Even silk facsimiles have never achieved the same <strong>de</strong>gree of realism that hasbeen possible with less complex flowers such as rases, orchids, and lilies. AIso, thelabor required to produce silk versions of small-petaled artificial flowers has ma<strong>de</strong>them toa expensive for most applications.Production tests for the new process have been completed, so the only uncertaintyabout the economics of the new production system is associated with the <strong>de</strong>mand forthe flowers. The traditional market for highquality artificial flowers cons_ts mainly offlorists and professional flower arrangers, although Selle are sold to individualsthrough <strong>de</strong>corators and high-priced boutiques. Many individuals do buy p<strong>las</strong>ticartificial flowers for various uses, but the acetate flowers would be more expensivethan the p<strong>las</strong>tic kind, even if they were ma<strong>de</strong> with the new high-volume productionsystem. So, there is a real question as to the <strong>de</strong>mand for the new flowers.Despite the uncertainty ayer the ultima te market for the acetate flowers asreflected in Table 1, Flowers and Malley are committed to shifting to the newproduction s'ystem. Further, they have conclu<strong>de</strong>d that since plant expansion isnecessary to implement the new system, the firm should expand now to meet thefuture growth requirements that are likely to occur as more and more individuals en terthe <strong>de</strong>mand si<strong>de</strong> of the market. The projected total capital outlay, plus the additionalworking capital nee<strong>de</strong>d, requires a $13 million increase in total assets during 1990.The new production method will incur fixed costs of $3.5 million per year andvariable costs of $150 per gross (12 dozen, or 144, flowers). The estimated salesprice is $200 per gross, or roughly $1.39 per flower. AIthough this is threq times thecosí of regular p<strong>las</strong>tic flowers, it is stillless than one fourth the price of high-quality silkreplicas.To finance the expansion, Floral Concepts can use bond s, common stock, orSelle combination of the two. The Board of Directors-but in reality, Flowers andMalley-no_v have to make the final <strong>de</strong>cision about the financing method. In a recentdirectors' meeting, two views were presented. One director, Glenn Petry, chairman ofthe board of 50uthern Capital Corporation, an investment banking and brokerage firmwhich makes a market in Floral Concepts' stock, strongly recommends that thecompany choose <strong>de</strong>bt financing at ibis time. Petry believes that inflation is likely toincrease significantIy in the next few years as the falling dallar makes imports moreand more expensive, and that <strong>de</strong>bt incurred now can be repaid in the future with"cheap doIlars." Petry says bis discussions with the company's stockhol<strong>de</strong>rs (Petry'sfirm has many customers who own Floral Concepts stock) suggest that the investingpublic is currentIy more interested in companies that are willing to use leverage ibanin conservative firms. He algo notes that most investors huid diversified portfolios,which minimize the risk on any une stock, so ibis increases their willingness toassume more risk on an individual security.86


Gary Emery, presi<strong>de</strong>nt of First National Bank, takes the opposite point of view. Heargues that the firm's risk will be in crea sed toa much if ít seIls additional <strong>de</strong>bt at ibistime. Emery maintains that although the sales forecasts are favorable, the casi ofgetting the new process installed and operating could be higher iban anticipated, orsales could faIl below the anticipated level, in which case the company could be inserious trouble. Emery algo notes that bis bank uses the <strong>de</strong>bt ratio as a measure ofcorporate strength. He adds that investors' aversion to risk generally results in lowerstock prices for companies with high <strong>de</strong>bí ratios. Emery algo stresses that if thecompany uses additional common stock now, its financial position will be strong, andif <strong>de</strong>mand should exceed expectations, requiring new facilities in the near future, thecompany would be in an excellent position to seIl <strong>de</strong>bí at a later date. FinaIly, Emerystates that bis bank's economists believe that interest rates will soon faIl, so, if thecompany <strong>de</strong>fers <strong>de</strong>bt financing, it mar be able to obtain <strong>de</strong>bt at an even lower casi inthe future.The currently outstanding long-term <strong>de</strong>bt (see Table 2) carries a 9 percent interestrateo Because the generallevel of interest rates is higher now iban it was when the old<strong>de</strong>bt was issued, the new <strong>de</strong>bt would carry a higher rateo A "poison pui" provision inthe contract for current outstanding <strong>de</strong>bt states that it must be retired (at par) at thehol<strong>de</strong>rs' option before any new long-term <strong>de</strong>bí can be issued, if the new dcbt carriesarate of interest above 9 percent. At the directors' meeting, Petry indicated that ibisprovision would present no problem because the company would be able to raiseenough new <strong>de</strong>bt to provi<strong>de</strong> funds for the expansion and algo to par off the old <strong>de</strong>bt.Another clause in the <strong>de</strong>bí contract states that there is a 20 percertt prepaymentpenalty for repaying the <strong>de</strong>bt ahead of schedule, unless it is refun<strong>de</strong>d with higher-cost<strong>de</strong>bt. Thus, Floral Concepts is effectively preclu<strong>de</strong>d from reducing its long-term <strong>de</strong>btbelow $10 million.When Flowers and Malley pressed Petry and Emery for informaban on howincreasing the <strong>de</strong>bt rabo would affect the price/earnings ratio, there was somedisagreement. Emery thought that the current price/ earnings ratio of 6.5 would<strong>de</strong>cline, while Petry believed that Floral Concepts'87

The rates shown are not marginal ratesin the sense that each is applied just to its respective increment; rather, the rates areapplied to the entire amount of <strong>de</strong>bt issued. For example, if the firrn borrows $15miman, the interest cost on the entire amount would be 13 percent. AIso, rememberthat the $10 million of outstanding 9 percent <strong>de</strong>bt must be retired if the companychooses to use additional <strong>de</strong>bt.88

Based on these conversations, heconclu<strong>de</strong>d that the following schedule is applicable:Long-Term DebtlAssets P/Eup to 30% 6.530.1% -36% 5.536.1 % - 45% 5.045.1% -50% 4.5The <strong>de</strong>bt / assets ratios shown here do not induJe current liabilities; they relate only tolong-term <strong>de</strong>bt. If short-term <strong>de</strong>bt were inclu<strong>de</strong>d, the data would not be materiallydifferent. Emery sent the figures to Malley and asked her to take them into accountbefore reaching a <strong>de</strong>cision.FIowers and Malley conclu<strong>de</strong>d that Malley should prepare a report for presentationat the next directors' meeting. Now she asks you, her assistant, to help with the reportby answering the following questions. A partially completed worksheet is provi<strong>de</strong>d inTable 3 to help you with sume of the questions.Questions1. Ca1culate expected earnings per share and stock prices at capital structures of$10, $11, $14, $17, $20, and $23 miman oflong-term <strong>de</strong>bt. Assume a 30 percentgrowth late from 1989 to 1990 in EBIT from existing operations, and combine thisprojected 1990 "assets-in-place" EBIT with the expected incremental EBIT resultingfrom the new expansion. Floral Concepts expects that its fe<strong>de</strong>ral-plus-sta te tax latefor 1990 and the foreseeable future wiII be 40 percent. Also, as sume that any fundsnot raised by <strong>de</strong>bt will be raised by selling common stock at a net price of $20 pershare ($25 price to the public less a $5 per share flotation cost). Which capitalstructure alternative wouId you recommend? (Hint: Consi<strong>de</strong>r stock price maximizationas the firm's primary goal and use TabIe 3 as a gui<strong>de</strong>.)2. Use data from your answer to Question 1, and suppose the optimal amount of<strong>de</strong>bt is raised in the form of a 20-year amortized term loan. What would the annual89


amortization payment be? Use this value to calcula te the <strong>de</strong>bí service coverage ratiofor 1990.3. What is Floral Concepts' expected rate of retum on common equity at the optimalcapital structure? (The expected rate of return on equity is equal to the expected netincome available to common stockhol<strong>de</strong>rs divi<strong>de</strong>d by total common equity.)4. Assume that Floral Concepts plans to par out all earnings as divi<strong>de</strong>nds ano thus tohave a zero growth rate, ano that investors are aware of this. What value for k. isimplica at the optimal capital structure?5. If Flowers, Malley, ano the other Board members had only a small stock ownership,might their financing <strong>de</strong>cision be influenced by whether their compensation consiste<strong>de</strong>ntirely of a fixed salary or incIu<strong>de</strong>d a substantial element in the form of stock options?Explain, ano answer more in general terms than in relation to the data in the case.6. Suppose the cosí of thy expansion is uncertain, ano could ron as high as $20million, well aPoye the original estímate of $13 million. How would this possibilityaffect your recornmendation? If you are using the Lotus moJel for this case, calculatethe expected stock price for each capital structure, assuming a $20 million cosí ofexpansion.7. Suppose Petry is correct, ano fue PIE ratio actually would remain at the currentlevel even if the <strong>de</strong>bí ratio were increased up to the limits given in the case. Howwould this atfect the expected outcome?8. Based on the information given in the case, does it appear that the investing publicis aware of the plans for the new process? What difference would it make if the publicknew or dio not know about the new situation? If the public was not informed, would itbe to the company's advantage to try to inform them? If so, how could the informationbe conveyed? If any of the Board members had so me extra money, would yourecommend that they purchase the company's stock on the open market at this time?9. No mentían of the capital asset pricing moJel (CAPM) was ma<strong>de</strong> inthe casebecause the CAPM was not consi<strong>de</strong>red in the actual <strong>de</strong>cision. Explain how CAPMconcepts might have been employed in the analysis. Be SUTe to discuss howfinancialleverage would affect the firm's betalcoefficient and,hence the firm's cosí ofequity ano value.90


10. Remember that Flowers ano Malley each own a substantial amount of theoutstanding stock (assume that this stock represents essentially all of their personalnet worths). What impact does potentialloss of control have on the capital structure<strong>de</strong>cision?The analysis used in the case exten<strong>de</strong>d only one year into the future. To look fartherinto the future, what additional information would you need? 8ased on the (verylimited) information about the exten<strong>de</strong>d future given in the case, do you think it likelythat projections for the exten<strong>de</strong>d future might alter the conc1usions you reached?CALIFICACION DELA PRÁCTICAFIRMA Y NOMBRE DELPROFESOR:91

PARTE I. ESTUDIO DEL CASO:METREX MANUFACTURING, INC.OBJETIVO:El estudiante, en el marco <strong>de</strong> su equipo <strong>de</strong> trabajo, evaluará la alternativa <strong>de</strong>arrendamiento financiero, respecto a la alternativa <strong>de</strong> comprar el activo medianteproyectos <strong>de</strong> inversiónDURACIÓN : 3 horasMetrex Manufacturing has <strong>de</strong>ci<strong>de</strong>d to automate their production process. Thenecessary new equipment must be custom manufactured and will be purchased. Theelectronic <strong>de</strong>vices for controlling the new production line contain many standardcomponents although their arrangement and functions must also be customized tomeet Metrex's particular needs.These electronic control <strong>de</strong>vices may either be leased or purchased (using borrowedmoney). That is the <strong>de</strong>cision that currently faces Metrex. Economic conditions at thetime (May 1986) create an ad<strong>de</strong>d dimension to the lease-buy analysis.If the manufacturer sells the electronic <strong>de</strong>vices as part of the equipment they will cost$215,000 and will be financed, along with the rest of the purchase, at 10 percent forsix years. The loan will be for the full amount, amortized with level annual payments,starting one year after installation.If Metrex <strong>de</strong>ci<strong>de</strong>s to lease it has a number of choices. Because lessors borrow moneyto finance their operations, the cost of leases vary with interest rates. The installationwill not be completed until August 1986. Therefore, the lessor would not be required topay for the equipment until then. If interest rates go up the required lease paymentswill increase; if rates go down so do the lease payments. Metrex can lock in apayment schedule now if it wishes but the lease payments will inclu<strong>de</strong> an interestcharge to compensate the lessor for the cost of tying up its money between May andAugust.If Metrex so chooses, it can lock in a six-year lease with annual payments of $42,000.If Metrex <strong>de</strong>ci<strong>de</strong>s to take a chance, the payment could be as low as $41,000 - ifinterest rates drop. However, if interest rates go up the payments could be as high as$43,000 per year.The proposed lease is a net, net lease. Metrex would pay all maintenance, propertytaxes, and insurance. There would, therefore, be no difference in the operatingexpenses between owning and leasing.93


There would be material differences in the tax treatment, however. These taxdifferences are important to Metrex because it is in the 40 percent tax bracket. Withleases the entire payment is tax <strong>de</strong>ductible. With borrowing only the interestcomponent of the payments are <strong>de</strong>ductible. Ownership allows Metrex to <strong>de</strong>ductexpenses for the cost of the equipment. These investment costs are computed usingthe accelerated cost recovery system (ACRS). Un<strong>de</strong>r ACRS.Metrex can write off the following percentage of the <strong>de</strong>preciable basis of the <strong>de</strong>vices:YearPercentage1 152 223 214 215 21Further the equipment could have a sizeable saIvage value. Although the installation istailored to a specific application, the electronic components are standardized andsubject to little, if any, wear. Six years from now the salvageable components couldstill be worth as much as $100,000. That salvage is by no means certain - a majortechnological innovation could ren<strong>de</strong>r the components worthless. Because of the riskinvolved, the saIvage value (which will be taxed) is discounted at a rate of 16 percent.QUESTIONS1. Compute the amount of each of the six end-of-year payments used for financingthe $215,000 purchase.2. Prepare a loan amortization schedule <strong>de</strong>tailing the amount of principal andinterest in each year's payment.3. Using Metrex’s after-tax cost of borrowing (10 percent before tax), calculate thepresent value cost of borrowing and buying the electronic control <strong>de</strong>vices:a) With zero salvage, andb) With $100,000 salvage (discounted at 16 percent).4. Calculate the present value cost of leasing using:a) The currently available $42,000 lease payments,b) The $43,000 payments if interest rates go up, andc) The $41,000 payments if rates go down.5. Would you lease or buy the equipment? If you lease, would you lock in currentlease rates or take your chances? What factors influenced your <strong>de</strong>cisions?94

ESTUDIO DEL CASO:THE PRIMO PIZZA COMPANYOBJETIVO:El estudiante, en el marco <strong>de</strong> su equipo <strong>de</strong> trabajo, valuará una empresaDURACIÓN : 3 horasThe Primo Pizza Company sells frozen pizzas in various sizes to in<strong>de</strong>pen<strong>de</strong>ntcontractors and supermarkets in the Chicago metropolitan arca. The company wasfoun<strong>de</strong>d by J oe Pepperoni in 1982 and since then the company has enjoyed rapidsales growth and remarkable brand name acceptance by consumers. The primaryreason for this success is the quality and consistency of the product which is ma<strong>de</strong>with the finest ingredients including Joe Pepperoni's secret pizza sauce formula.Although there are several national brand frozen pizzas sold in the Chicago market,Primo's is the only local brand that has captured a significant market share.Although Pepperoni knows how to produce a high quality pizza, unfortunately heknows less about financial management. As a consequence, the company is havingdil1iculty servicing its <strong>de</strong>bt. As shown in Exhibit 1, the company has a large <strong>de</strong>btbur<strong>de</strong>n. This <strong>de</strong>bt is due to some poor investment <strong>de</strong>cisions ma<strong>de</strong> by Pepperoni.Pepperoni is concerned that the <strong>de</strong>bt problem threatens the company's survival.Since the local bank will not grant additional loans to the company until it improves itsbalance sheet, Pepperoni is interested in selling a 25 percent interest in the companyto his long-time friend Tom Tully. Tully has more than a passing interest in Primo'sbecause he owns a cheese factory. Tully believes that he can expand bis cheesesales through the Primo Pizza line. However, Tully does not want to overpay for hisownership interest. Pepperoni gave Tully the company's income statements for thepast four years as shown in Exhibit 2. These statements _how that the company has avery favorable profit trend even though the company has never ma<strong>de</strong> a profit to dateTo assist Tully in making this investment <strong>de</strong>cision, Tully retained Mark Flannigan, afinancial consultant, to make a <strong>de</strong>tailed financial evaluation and valuation of thecompany. TulIy told Flannigan that Pepperoni is asking $250,000 for a 25 percentownership interest; Tully wanted to know if that price was reasonable. As a first step,Flannigan <strong>de</strong>veloped common size balance sheets anÓ percent in come statementsas shown in Exhibits 3 and 4 respectively. By comparing these statements to theindustry, Flannigan was able to i<strong>de</strong>ntify areas of disparity. In addition, Flannigan ma<strong>de</strong>a <strong>de</strong>tailed cross-sectional and time series financial ratio analysis to assess the firm'sfinancial condition and performance. This analysis is shown in Exhibit 5.98

Flannigan explained to Tully that a fair market price for Primo's is based on goingconcern value which is the value of a company in the hands of the existing owners.The relevant measure of economic benefit is cash t1ow which is <strong>de</strong>fined as netoperating income before <strong>de</strong>ductions of payments to financing sources but after the<strong>de</strong>ductions of applicable taxes. Specifically, Flannigan proposes to use the followingvaluation formula.8V = S NIAT t + I t (1- T)t =1 (1 + MCC) twhere NIAT t = net income after tax in year tI t = interest in year tT = marginal tax rateMCC = marginal cost of capitalSince the cash flows are generated from sales, Flannigan <strong>de</strong>veloped a multipleregression mo<strong>de</strong>l based on historic sales to forecast future sales. Flannigan's salesforecasts are as follows:YearForecasted Sales1986 $1,329,6541987 2,312,9691988 3,296,2841989 4,279,6001990 5.262,915To <strong>de</strong>velop pro-forma income statements, Flannigan assumed that cost of saleswould be 72 percent of sales, selling expenses and general administrative expenseswould be 19 percent of sales and interest would be 2 percent of sales. The averagetax rate is assumed to be 43 percent. In <strong>de</strong>ve1oping pro-forma financial statements,Flannigan noted that Primo's had a tax loss carry forward of $20 1,174 011 its 1985corporate income tax retuTl1. Flannigan knew that some of his assumptions onexpenses were optimistic in light of Primo's historic figures but he thought thatPepperoni could tighten up the operations.Estimating the discount rate for the Primo Pizza Company was difficult becausePrimo's was a closely-held firm; there was no active market for the company's stock.Accordingly, Flannigan <strong>de</strong>ci<strong>de</strong>d to <strong>de</strong>velop a profile of pizza manufacturers. Thisanalysis indicated that the average <strong>de</strong>bt ratio is 22 percent while the equity proportionis 78 percent. These proportions were <strong>de</strong>emed to be optimal for Primo's. Flanniganalso assumed that Primo's future long-term cost of <strong>de</strong>bt would be 11 percent beforetax.Flannigan estimated Primo's cost of equity using the capital asset pricing mo<strong>de</strong>land assuming that the riskless rate would be 10.4 percent, the expected return on the102


market portfolio would be 15 percent, and the beta coefficient for pizza manufacturerswould be 1.00. With this data Flannigan would estimate the weighted average cost ofcapital and use it as a discount rate in his valuation mo<strong>de</strong>I. For years 1991 andthereafter, Flannigan assumed that the yearly cash flow would be the same as the1990 cash flow, implying no growth.QUESTIONS1.
