David Lyons, CEO of Lyons Solar Technologies, is concerned about his firms level of debt financing. The company uses short-term debt to finance its temporary working capital needs, but it does not use any permanent (long-term) debt. Other solar technology companies have debt, and Mr. Lyons wonders why they use debt and what its effects are on stock prices. To gain some insights into the matter, he poses the following questions to you, his recently hired assistant: e. Suppose the expected free cash flow for Year 1 is 250,000 but it is expected to grow faster than 7% during the next 3 years: FCF2 = 290,000 and FCF3 = 320,000, after which it will grow at a constant rate of 7%. The expected interest expense at Year 1 is 128,000, but it is expected to grow over the next couple of years before the capital structure becomes constant: Interest expense at Year 2 will be 152,000, at Year 3 it will be 192,000 and it will grow at 7% thereafter. What is the estimated horizon unlevered value of operations (i.e., the value at Year 3 immediately after the FCF at Year 3)? What is the current unlevered value of operations? What is the horizon value of the tax shield at Year 3? What is the current value of the tax shield? What is the current total value? The tax rate and unlevered cost of equity remain at 25% and 14%, respectively.
Karen Lamont is in the process of starting a new business and wants to forecast the first year's income statement and balance sheet. She has made several assumptions, which are shown below: Lamont has projected the firm's sales will be $1 million in the first year. She believes that the operating and gross profit margins will be 20 percent and 50 percent, respectively. For working capital, Lamont has estimated the following: Accounts receivable as a percentage of sales: 12% Inventory as a percentage of sales: 15% Accounts payable as a percentage of sales: 7% Accruals as a percentage of sales: 5% A bank has agreed to loan her $300,000, consisting of $100,000 in short-term debt and $200,000 in long-term debt. Both loans will have an 8 percent interest rate. The firm's tax rate will be 30 percent. Lamont will need to purchase $350,000 in plant and equipment. Lamont will provide any other financing needed.Based on Lamont's assumptions in Situation 3, prepare a pro forma income…
