Hastings Corporation is interested in acquiring Vandell Corporation. Vandell has 1 million shares outstanding and a target capital structure consisting of 30% debt. Vandell's debt interest rate is 79%. Assume that the risk free rate of interest is 3% and the market risk premium is 4%. Both Vandell and Hastings face a 35% tax rate. Vandell's beta is 1.25. Hastings estimates that if it acques Vandell, interest payments will be $1,600,000 per year for 3 years. The free cash flows are supposed to be $2.3 million, $2.8 million, $3.3 million, and then $3.94 million in Years through 4, respectively. Suppose Hastings will increase Vandell's level of debt at the end of Year to $29.7 million so that the target capital structure will be 45% debt. Assume that with this higher level of debt the interest rate would be 8.0%, and assume that interest payments in Year 4 are based on the new debt level from the end of Year 3 and new interest rate. Free cash flows and tax shields are projected to grow at 5% after Year 4. The data has been collected in the Microsoft Excel Online file below.
