The Telescoping Tube Company is planning to put a manufacturing facility in place to build observatory quality but recreational scale telescopes. The systematic risk of this project alone is 25% greater than they currently manage. The company has a target debt to value ratio of 35%. The β of the assets currently managed is .8 and they face a 36% tax rate. The initial investment cost is $4,200,000 and the expected cashflows after tax are $1,200,000 per year for 6 years. The risk-free rate is 5% and you believe the historical market risk premium of 8.5% is a reasonable estimate.
A. What is the all equity value of the investment?
B. What is the added value if the company finances this project with $682,044 worth of 16% debt which requires an interest payment until maturity when the full principle is due.
C. If the Albanic County Board of Commissioners approaches the Telescoping Tube Company with an offer to raise the needed $682,044 debt capital as 15% perpetual debt, should the company accept the offer?
