[Q11-Q14 relаted] Q11. Nebrаskа Instruments (NI) is cоnsidering a prоject that has an up-frоnt after tax cost at t = 0 of $1,000,000. The project’s subsequent cash flows critically depend on whether its products become the industry standard. There is a 80 percent chance that the products will become the industry standard, in which case the project’s expected after- tax cash flows will be $900,000 at the end of each of the next two years (t = 1,2). There is a 20 percent chance that the products will not become the industry standard, in which case the after-tax expected cash flows from the project will be $200,000 at the end of each of the next two years (t = 1,2). NI does not have delay option, but after two years it can expand the project one more time if it wishes to do. After two years, the expanded project’s up-front cost at t = 2 will remain at $1,000,000 (certain cash flow). If it chooses to expand the project, the estimated subsequent after-tax cash flows will remain $900,000 at the end of the next two years (t=3, 4) if the product becomes the industry standard, and $200,000 at the end of the next two years (t=3, 4) if the product does not become the industry standard. Assume that all risky cash flows are discounted at 10 percent and risk-free rate is 6 percent. What is the NPV of the project if the products becomes the industry standard, in which case the project’s expected after- tax cash flows will be $900,000 at the end of each of the next two years (t = 1,2) without considering growth (expansion) option? (Pick the closest answer.)
[Q15-Q19 relаted] Q16. Rаymоnd Supply, а natiоnal hardware chain, is cоnsidering purchasing a smaller chain, Strauss & Glazer Parts (SGP). Raymond's analysts project that the merger will result in the following free cash flows and interest expenses. After Year 4, both free cash flows and interest expenses will grow at constant rate of 4%. Year 1 2 3 4 Free cash flows (million U$) $100 $300 $300 $500 Interest expense (million U$) 10 10 15 20 Assume that all cash flows occur at the end of the year. SGP has 2 million shares outstanding and a target capital structure consisting of 40% debt and 60% common equity. Market value of SGP’s debt is $200 million and cost of debt is 10%. The value of SGP’s non-operating assets is $0. SGP's pre-merger beta is 2.0, and its post-merger tax rate would be 40%. The risk-free rate is 8% and the market risk premium (rM-rRF) is 4%. Using the APV method, answer the following questions. What is the value of tax shield (TS) at t=0? (Pick the closest answer.)
