Reading 38 - Residual Income Valuation Flashcards
Define Residual Income…….
Is the net income of a firm less a charge that measures stockholder’s opportunity cost of capital
How do you calculate Residual Income?
= Net Income - Equity Charge
How do you calculate the Equity Charge used in calculating Residual Income?
= equity capital * cost of equity
What is NOPAT?
Net Operating _P_rofit _A_fter Tax
= EBIT * (1-T)
What is Economic Value Added (EVA) ?
it measures the value added for shareholders by management during a given year
How do you calculate Economic Value Added (EVA) ?
= NOPAT - (WACC * Invested Capital)
Invested Capital = book value of long term debt + book value of equity
What is Market Value Added (MVA)?
The difference between the market value of a firm’s long term debt and equity and the book value of invested capital supplied by investors
How do you calculate Market Value Added (MVA)?
= Market Value - Invested Capital
Assuming the stock is correctly priced (ie P0 = V0), how can value be expressed in terms of book value?

How do you calculate the implied growth rate in residual income when given the market price to book ratio and an estimate of the required rate of return?

What is a persistence factor in regards to residual income?
the projected rate at which residual income is expected to fade over the life cycle of the firm

What are the four main assumptions that can be made about continuing residual income?
- residual income is expected to persist at its current level forever
- residual income is expected to drop immediately to zero
- residual income is expected to decline to a long run average level consistent with a mature industry
- residual income is expected to decline over time as ROE falls to the cost of equity
How do you calculate the PV of continuing residual income if it continues at the current level forever?

How do you calculate the PV of continuing residual income if it drops immediately to zero?

How do you calculate the PV of continuing residual income if it declines over time to zero?

How do you calculate the PV of continuing residual income if it declines to the long run level in a mature industry?

What are some of the strengths of using a residual income model?
- Terminal value does not dominate the intrinsic value estimate
- Residual income models use accounting data, which is usually easy to find
- The models are applicable to firms that do not pay dividends or that do not have positive FCF in the short run
- models are applicable when cash flows are volatile
- models focus on economic profitability rather than just accouting profitability
What are some of the weaknesses of using residual income models?
- the models rely on accounting data that can be manipulated by management
- reliance on accounting data requires numerous and significant adjustments
- models assume that the clean surplus relation holds
***clean surplus is Bt = Bt-1 + Et-Dt
Under what circumstances in it appropriate to use a Residual Income model?
- a firm does not pay dividends, or the stream of payments is too volatile to be sufficiently predictable
- expected free cash flows are negative for the foreseeabe future
- terminal values forceast is highly uncertain, which makes dividend discount or FCF models less useful
Under what circumstances is it not appropriate to use residual income models?
- clean surplus accounting relation is violated significantly
- there is significant uncertainty concerning the estimates of book value and return on equity
What are some adjustments that have to be made to net income so the Clean Surplus isn’t violated?
- Foreign currency translation gains and losses that flow directly to retained earnings
- The minimum liability adjustment in pension accounting
- Changes in market value of debt and equity securities classified as available for sale
What are the steps to calculate SS’s common stocks justified value if the present value of projected residual income for the next 5 years plus beginning book value is $75 per share. Beyond that time horizon, the firm will sustain residual income of $11.25 per shares, which is the residual income for year 6.
Step 1 : Calculate the terminal value as of yr 5
TV = 11.25 / 0.10 = 112.50
Step 2 : Calculate the PV of this yr5 TV
PV = 112.50 / (1.10)<sup>5 </sup>= 69.85
Step 3: Calculate the justified value
= 112.50 + 69.85
Calculate the Residual Income at Yr end given the following information
Required rate of return = 8%
Beginning book value = 10.62
EPS is 20% of beginning book value
Will pay out 40% of EPS in Dividends

Given the following facts, how do you calculate the PV of continuing residual income as of yr end 2009……
Price as of 2010 : $59.64
Book value as of 2010 : $14.91
Residual Income for 2010 : $1.59
Required rate of return : 8%
