4. Texas Wildcatters Inc. (TWI) is in the business of finding and developing oil properties, and then selling the successful ones to major oil refining companies. TWI is now considering a new potential field, and its geologists have developed the following data, in thousands of dollars.
t = 0. A $400 feasibility study would be conducted at t = 0. The results of this study would determine if the company should commence drilling operations or make no further investment and abandon the project.
t = 1. If the feasibility study indicates good potential, the firm would spend $1,000 at t = 1 to drill exploratory wells. The best estimate is that there is an 80% probability that the exploratory wells would indicate good potential and thus that further work would be done, and a 20% probability that the outlook would look bad and the project would be abandoned.
t = 2. If the exploratory wells test positive, TWI would go ahead and spend $10,000 to obtain an accurate estimate of the amount of oil in the field at t = 2. The best estimate now is that there is a 60% probability that the results would be very good and a 40% probability that results would be poor and the field would be abandoned.
t = 3. If the full drilling program is carried out, there is a 50% probability of finding a lot of oil and receiving a $25,000 cash inflow at t = 3, and a 50% probability of finding less oil and then only receiving a $10,000 inflow.
Since the project is considered to be quite risky, a 20% cost of capital is used. What is the project's expected NPV, in thousands of dollars?
a. $336.15
b. $373.50
c. $415.00
d. $461.11
e. $507.22

A project has an initial requirement of $261,000 for fixed assets and $27,000 for net working capital. The fixed assets will be depreciated to a zero book value over the 4-year life of the project and have an estimated salvage value of $78,000. All of the net working capital will be recouped at the end of the project. The annual operating cash flow is $96,200 and the discount rate is 13 percent. What is the project's net present value if the tax rate is 35 percent

Barnes Baskets, Inc. (BB) currently has zero debt. Its earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) are $100,000, and it is a zero growth company. BB's current cost of equity is 13%, and its tax rate is 40%. The firm has 20,000 shares of common stock outstanding selling at a price per share of $23.08. Refer to Multi-Part 15-3. BB is considering moving to a capital structure that is comprised of 20% debt and 80% equity, based on market values. The debt would have an interest rate of 7%. The new funds would be used to repurchase stock. It is estimated that the increase in risk resulting from the additional leverage would cause the required rate of return on equity to rise to 14%. If this plan were carried out, what would BB's new value of operations be?
A. $498,339
B. $512,188
C. $525,237

You have the following data: FCF0 = $10 million; FCF1 = $15 million; FCF2 = $20 million; FCF3 = $25 million; free cash flow grows at a rate of 5% for year 4 and beyond. The weighted average cost of capital is 15%. Assume they have 40 million in debt and 10 million shares outstanding. Find the price per share.
