I need question 1 and 3 answered.
Question 1:
Discuss about Jaguars exchange rate exposures. (5)
To which currencies is Jaguar exposed? (1) What are the sources of these exposures? (4)
Question 3:
You are a security analyst responsible for following Jaguar's stock after it floats. (Assume the company had 100 million shares outstanding.)
>What is your estimate of Jaguar's stock price given a 10% drop in the real value of the dollar?(5)
>What is Jaguars market value exposure (and delta) with respect to the real dollar/sterling exchange rate? (5)What is Jaguar's free cash flow exposure (and delta) for the years 1985 to 1989 with respect to the real dollar/sterling exchange rate? (5)

The Florida International University College of Business Administration FIN4604: International Financial Management Fall 2015 Dr Q. Kang General Instructions on Project The project analysis is due December 1, Tuesday, 11:59pm. Each group needs to submit only one written copy of the project analysis using the Blackboard's Assignment Dropbox. Write down each group member's name on the front page of the report. I will grade each group's project analysis according to the Rubrics posted in the Blackboard. Each member of the group will receive the same grade. Groups will be formed by the professor within one week after this instruction is distributed. Each group typically consists of four students. Please check the Grade Center at the Blackboard to find out your group members. Note that you are responsible for setting up a scheme to coordinate each group member's efforts on this project. Free-riders are NOT welcome. The group can vote with a majority to kick the free-rider out of his/her group - in that case, the one who is kicked out will receive zero grade on the project. You may find it useful to take a look at the slides: \"jaguar_introduction.ppt\Introduction to the Jaguar Case In 1984, British government wants to privatize Jaguar, but what is a proper value? Description of luxury car market and Jaguar's recent results. The problem that a high dollar presents. A stab at valuation -- Price/earnings for German competitors. Two exchange rate scenarios. Review of valuation Calculation of delta A General Valuation Framework Steps involved in the valuation: - Step 1: Estimate the free cash flows of an unlevered firm or project - Step 2: Discount the unlevered cash flow with the WACC This is the value VL of the levered firm - Step 3: Subtract the value of debt to get the value of equity VE =VL - D 9 Estimating Free Cash Flows Estimating the free cash flows of an unlevered firm or project: earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) - taxes = earnings before interest and after taxes (i.e., EBIAT= EBIT( 1 - C)) + depreciation = operating cash flows - capital expenditures - investment in working capital =total free cash flow to unlevered firm 10 Applying the valuation framework to the Jaguar case To find a value for Jaguar, must start with free cash flows = profits after tax + depreciation - increase in working capital - capital expenditure Then take present value of these free cash flows. Finally, subtract long term debt. Notes on Jaguar Example: If Jaguar has 50 million in free cash flows every year no debt and if its discount rate is 18 %, then its value is 50 million / 0.18 = 278 million If 50 million is the free cash flow this year and if it grows at 5 % per year, then its value is 50 million / (0.18 - 0.05) = 385 million What if we try to project actual cash flows for Jaguar for the next five years? What do we do with cash flows beyond this horizon? Answer: Form a terminal value of Jaguar based on some assumption about cash flows thereafter. 1983 Dollar/sterling United States Growth, units (%) Volume, units 15260 Inflation (%) US$ price/unit sales, dollars sales, sterling Rest of the world Growth, units (%) Volume, units Projected 1984 1.350 12.0% 17091 3.0% 25631 438065 324492 13207 Inflation (%) price/unit , sterling sales, sterling 12.0% 14792 5.0% 17284 255662 var. cost of sales/unit NWC discount rate 13521 30000 18.0% Total sales, units Total revenues 31883 580154 Var. cost sales Depreciation R&D Distribution Administration 431091 10000 18000 13965 23100 Total Costs EBIT Tax EBIAT Depreciation Operating cash flow Increase NWC Capital Expenditure FCF Terminal value discount factor PV, FCF Value of firm (sterling) 13300 22000 496156 83999 29400 54599 10000 64599 30000 11500 23099 1.00 23099 EXHIBIT 1 Balance Sheets (in millions of pounds) December 31, March 31, 1981 1982 1983 1984 Fixed Assets: Tangible Assets 55.7 87.3 112.0 118.6 Investments in related companies 0.4 0.4 TOTAL FIXED ASSETS #VALUE! #VALUE! 112.4 119.0 Current Assets: Stocks Debtors Cash & shortterm deposits TOTAL Creditors: Amount falling due within one year 56.3 26.3 1.3 83.9 Total Assets Less Current Liabilities 62.7 33.8 29.5 126.0 76.5 42.5 11.5 130.5 51.3 Net Current Assets (Liabilities) 68.8 29.6 6.9 105.3 81.1 128.8 127.5 32.6 24.2 (2.8) [PGDN] FOR MORE OF EXHIBIT 1... 3.0 #VALUE!
