Chapter 22, Problem 14P

You are an analyst working for Goldman Sachs, and you are trying to value the growth potential of a large, established company, Big Industries. Big Industries has a thriving R&D division that has consistently turned out successful products. You estimate that, on average, the R&D division generates two new product proposals every three years, so that there is a two-thirds chance that a project will be proposed every year. Typically, the investment opportunities the R&D division produces require an initial investment of $10 million and yield profits of $1 million per year that grow at one of three possible growth rates in perpetuity: 3%, 0%, and –3%. All three growth rates are equally likely for any given project. These opportunities are always “take it or leave it” opportunities: If they are not undertaken immediately, they disappear forever. Assume that the cost of capital will always remain at 12% per year. What is the present value of all future growth opportunities Big Industries will produce?

← You are an analyst working for Goldman Sachs, and you are trying to value the growth potential of a large, established company, Big Industries. Big Industries has a thriving R&D division that has consistently turned out successful products. You estimate that, on average, the division launches two projects every three years, so you estimate that there is a 67% chance that a project will be produced every year. Typically, the investment opportunities the R&D division produces require an initial investment of $10.3 million and yield profits of $1.09 million per year that grow at one of three possible growth rates in perpetuity: 3.3%, 0.0%, and -3.3%. All three growth rates are equally likely for any given project. These opportunities are always "take it or leave it" opportunities: If they are not undertaken immediately, they disappear forever. Assume that the cost of capital will always remain at 11.6% per year. What is the present value of all future growth opportunities Big Industries…
Please answer fast I will rate for you sure....
As an analyst for Kingbird Inc., you are responsible for many firms, including ADFC. Currently you have a "hold" recommendation on ADFC. The current price of ADFC is $154. You have conducted an extensive analysis of the industry and you feel that the probability the firm will capture a substantial share of the new market is 25 percent. If the firm is able to capture the new market, you are expecting earnings to grow at a rate of 45 percent per year for the next five years. In that case, the stock price would rise to $234 due to the unusually high growth rate of future earnings. However, you feel there is a 35-percent probability that the firm will face serious difficulties in the near future, in which case the stock price will fall to $114, and the earnings growth rate will drop to 3 percent. There is a 40-percent chance that nothing will change for the firm and its earnings growth rate will remain at 12 percent. Calculate the expected price in the future. (Round intermediate…
