Company V earned a net profit margin of 25% on sales of $25 million in its most recently ended fiscal year. Capital investment was $2.5 million and depreciation was $3 million. Investment in working capital is 10% of sales every year. Assume the following:

• Sales, net income, cap ex, depreciation and interest expense are expected to grow 10% every year for the next five years
• After five years sales, net income, cap ex, depreciation and interest expense will decline to a stable growth rate of 4% per year

The tax rate is 36%. Company Z has 1.5 million shares of common stock outstanding. Company Z also has long-term debt paying 10% interest and it is trading at its par value of $30 million.

Calculate the value of the firm and its equity assuming the cost of capital is 15% during years 1-5 and 12% during the stable stage.
