Salem-Winston Corporation is emerging from reorganization proceedings under Chapter 11 of the bankruptcy laws. The company's balance sheet shows total assets of $4,500,000, liabilities subject to compromise of $4,100,000, and postpetition liabilities of $1,000,000. For purposes of determining reorganization value, Salem-Winston has the following:

Excess cash (accumulated because no payments were made on
prepetition debt during the reorganization period)	$400,000
Net realizable value of excess assets available for disposition	80,000
Present value of future operating cash flows of the emerging entity	3,000,000
Total	$3,480,000

The new capital structure of Salem-Winston will be as follows:

Postpetition liabilities	$ 1,000,000
Senior secured debt (5%, 15-year maturity)	1,400,000
Subordinated debt (7%, 8-year maturity)	580,000
Common stock	100,000
Total	$3,080,000

The creditors represented in the amount of liabilities subject to compromise receive an immediate cash payment of $400,000 (the excess cash), all of the new debt securities, and 70 percent of the new common stock. The existing equity holders receive 30 percent of the new common stock.
