Business Valuation 617
the first forecasted year (2001) is discounted one-half year, rather than one
complete year, to the valuation date of December 31, 2000.
The residual value is based on the expected invested capital net cash f low
in the last year of the projection (2005) of $4.533 million. Victoria estimates
ACME’slong-term sustainable earnings growth rate at 5% annually. Accord-
ingly, the cash f low for 2006 is estimated at $4.760 million ($4.533 million ×
1.05). The multiple Victoria applies for the residual year is 12. The calculation
for the multiple is presented in Exhibit 18.11. ACME’s residual value at De-
cember 31, 2005, is estimated as $57.1 million.
The present values of the five years of cash f lows are added together
plus the present value of the residual value. These items represent the antici-
pated future benefits to all capital holders at December 31, 2000. The sum of
the present values represents the market value of the total invested capital
(MVIC) of $42.1 million. ACME’s interest bearing debt of$10.4 million is
subtracted resulting in $31.7 million for the value of ACME’s common stock
