Answer:

A. $3.37

B. $3.41

Explanation:

A.Computation for earnings per share for the year 20X1

20X1 Earnings per share= $1,170,000/347,000

20X1 Earnings per share= $3.37

Therefore earnings per share for the year 20X1 will be $3.37

B. Computation for earnings per share for the year 20X2.

First step is to calculate the Earnings available to common stockholders

Earnings available to common stockholders = $1,170,000x (1+.31 )

Earnings available to common stockholders = $1,170,000x 1.31

Earnings available to common stockholders = = $1,532,700

Second step is to calculate the Common shares outstanding

Common shares outstanding = 347,000 + 103,000

Common shares outstanding = 450,000

Now let calculate the earnings per share for the year 20X2

20X2 Earnings per share=$1,532,700/450,000

20X2 Earnings per share = $3.41

Therefore earnings per share for the year 20X2 will be $3.41

We will calcualte the WACC to know the cost of capital for the company:

$WACC = K_e(\frac{E}{E+D}) + K_d(1-t)(\frac{D}{E+D})$

Ke 0.14

Equity weight 0.79

Kd 0.07

Debt Weight 0.21

t 0.4

$WACC = 0.14(0.79) + 0.07(1-0.4)(0.21)$

WACC 11.94200%

Now we calcualte the value of the company:

$\frac{FCF}{return-growth} = Intrinsic \: Value$

59,000,000

<u> (21,000,000) </u>

38,000,000 Free Cash flow ofthe Firm

$\frac{38,000,000}{0.11942-0.04} = Intrinsic \: Value$

$\frac{38,000,000}{0,07942} = Intrinsic \: Value$
