BEA Enterprise Value and Equity
Not what you're looking for?
If BEA Enterprise in ready to launch a new product. Depending upon the success of this product, BEA will have a value of either $100 million, $150 million, or $191 million, with each outcome being equally likely. The cash flows are unrelated to the state of the economy (i.e. risk from the project is diversifiable) so that the project has a beta of 0 and a cost of capital equal to the risk-free rate, which is currently 5%. Assume that the capital markets are perfect. The initial value of BEA's equity without leverage is closest to:
[Hint: Solve for Equity (unlevered) = Vu]
$133 million
$140 million
$147 million
$150 million
