5. TransWorld Communications Inc., a large telecom company is evaluating the possible
acquisition of Georgia Cable Company (GCC), a regional cable co. TransWorld’s analysts
projects the following post-merger data for GCC (in thousands):
0 1 2 3 4
Net sales P450 P518 P555 P600
Selling and administrative expenses 45 53 60 68
Interest 18 21 24 27
Tax rate after merger 35% Risk-free rate 8%
Cost of goods sold ratio 65% Market risk premium 4%
Beta after merger 1.50 Continuing growth rate 7%

If the acquisition is made, it will occur on January 1, year 1. All cash flows shown in the
income statements are assumed to occur at the end of the year. GCC currently has a capital
structure of 40% debt, but Trans World would increase that to 50% if the acquisition were
made. GCC, if independent, would pay taxes at 20%; but its income would be taxed at 35%
if it were consolidated. GCC’s current market determined beta is 1.40, and its investment
bankers think that is beta would rise to 1.50 if the debt ratio were increased to 50%. The
cost of goods sold is expected to be 65% of sales but is could vary somewhat. Depreciation-
generated funds would be used to replace worn-out equipment, so they would not be
available to TransWorld shareholders. The risk-free rate is 8%, and the market risk
premium is 4%.

B. What is the continuing value?
C. What is the value of GCC to TransWorld?
