    The WACC for Collinsville, according to our estimations, came up to about 16.22% (Exhibit I). We took the average of the unlevered betas of comparable companies, 0.91, and relevered it according to Dixon’s target capital structure. Dixon’s 5-year historical debt ratio was 27.5%, but this approach would not be reliable due to its steep downturn debt ratio from 51% in 1975 to 6% in 1979. Thus, we thought that the best estimate of the target debt ratio is 15% for calculation of the WACC.…

    Per calculation, Torrington’s stand-alone valuation is 192.789 million dollars (see Exhibit X), with the assumption that NWC equals 13.5% of sales. All of the numbers in this Exhibit are from the attachments of Timken case. EBIT, capital expenditure, net sales, and depreciation expense are from Exhibit 5 of the Timken case. Tax rate is calculated based on Timken Corporate Income Statements from Exhibit 1 of the Timken case. For the WACC calculation, cost of equity is calculated the assumption of a risk premium of 6.5%, since the market premium decreased over time from 7.1% to 4.7% and it is reasonable to assume that the market premium would be close to 6% by 2002. Risk free rate and cost of debt is from Exhibit 9 of the Timken case. With the assumption that Torrington and Timken are similar to each other, beta is drawn from Exhibit 8 of the Timken case. Then, the weights of equity and debt are…

    Long ago, when I used to go with my father to the supermarket, I was always asking him to buy me a ball or these fake guns to play with. Sometimes he did buy them for me but sometimes not. I was happy when I had them but when he refused I heard the same reason every time “we do not have the money now but I will buy it for you next time” so I was asking myself: why he was saying to me that he did not have money while he was buying even more expensive goods? And more intriguing, how he would know that he does not have the money now but he will have it next time?…

    PPC has been calculating their after tax cost of debt using the coupon rate of 12% instead of the actual interest rate which is 8%. Taking the 8% interest rate into account, PPC’s actual cost of capital would be calculated as: [.08(1-.34)]= 5.28%. PPC has simply been using 10% (their equity growth rate) as their cost, but must instead either use the CAPM model to calculate their cost of equity, or the Dividend-growth model. If they use the CAPM model, which is the most accurate, their cost of equity will be: .078+.8(.1625-.078)=14.56%. Or they can use the Dividend-growth model and their cost of equity would be: (2.7/63)+.1=14.29%. Both are acceptable but, because the Dividend-growth model is subjective, and the coupon rate (that PPC was originally using is a sunk cost, they should use the market rate). Thus using the market rate to calculate CAPM you use the Beta and market risk premium which are both based on the market rate and more accurate. Finally, their company WACC of 9% that they have calculated is incorrect and given the above calculations, their WACC using CAPM would be: [5.28(.5)+14.6(.5)]=9.94% and their WACC using Dividend-growth would be:…
