Question
Calculate what EVA will be in 2012 based on financial forecasts for 2012 and prior year financial data.
Fiscal Forecast 2012
Total Assets = 54,600,000
Noninterest-bearing current liabilities = 20,100,000
Sales = 99,500,000
Net income = 5,600,000
Interest expense = 1,250,000
Research and development = 2,410,000
Tax Rate is 30%
Cost of capital is 13.50%
Research and development expenditures in 2010 and 2011 were 1,200,000 and 2,200,000 respectively. In calculating EVA, prior research and development will be capitalized and amortized assuming a three-year life (i.e., one-third will be expensed in the year occurred, and two-thirds will be capitalized and expensed in the following two years).
What is forecasted EVA for 2012
$___________________________
Explanation / Answer
Total Assets = $54,600,000
Non-interest bearing current liabilities = $20,100,000
Sales = $99,500,000
Net Income = $5,600,000
Interest expenses = $1,250,000
Research and development = $2,410,000
Tax rate = 30%
Cost of Capital = 13.50%
Research and development expenditure in 2010 = $1,200,000
Research and development expenditure in 2011 = $2,200,000
EVA = EBIT (1-Tax rate) – (Total net operating capital) (WACC)
EVA = (Operating Capital) (ROIC – WACC)
Operating Capital = [Total Assets – Non bearing current liabilities]
Operating Capital = [$54,600,000 - $20,100,000]
Operating Capital = $34,500,000
ROIC = NOPAT / Operating Capital
NOPAT = Net Income
Hence, Net Operating Profit after Tax = $5,600,000
ROIC = $5,600,000 / $34,500,000
ROIC = 0.1623
EVA = $34,500,000 (0.1623 – 0.1350)
EVA = $34,500,000 (0.0273)
EVA = $941,850
EVA = $941,850
