Learning Objective 5.1: Calculate AFN.:
NEEDS IMPROVEMENT
1
Calculation doesn’t use the correct inputs. Calculation is incorrect.
Additional Comments: Your answer is incorrect. The formula is:
AFN =[ (A/So)(change in sales)] – [ (L/So)(change in sales)] – [(profit margin)(forecasted sales)(retention ratio)]
Retention ratio = 0.30
Profit Margin = 0.05
Check with tutor before submitting third assessment.
Learning Objective 5.2: Analyze strategies for reducing a company’s AFN.:
MEETS EXPECTATIONS
2
Analysis identifies at least two strategies for reducing AFN. Analysis is specific to the facts of the scenario.

Learning Objective 5.2: Identify the horizon date for a stock.:
NEEDS IMPROVEMENT
1 Identification of the horizon date for a stock is inaccurate.
Date selection is not supported by a clear rationale.
Additional Comments: Not answered. I gave you the correct answer in the last feedback.
Learning Objective 5.3: Calculate a company’s horizon or continuing value.:
NEEDS IMPROVEMENT
1 Calculation is inaccurate and/or incomplete.
Calculation is not documented in detail.
Additional Comments: At the end of Year 2, constant growth begins and the new growth rate is 5%.D1 & D2 were calculated correctly.
D3 = D2 (1+.05)
Horizon value = P2 = [D3/(.10 - .05)]
Check with tutor about math.
Learning Objective 5.4: Calculate a company’s intrinsic value today.:
NEEDS IMPROVEMENT
1 Calculation is inaccurate and/or incomplete.
Calculation is not documented in detail.
Additional Comments: Intrinsic Value = Po = (PV of D1) + (PV of D2) + (PV of Horizon Value
PV of D1 = D1/(1.10)
PV of D2 = D2/[(1.10)^2]
PV of Horizon Value = P2/[(1.10)^2]
Learning Objective 6.1: Calculate a company’s cost of common equity capital.:
NEEDS IMPROVEMENT
1 Calculation is inaccurate and/or incomplete.
Calculation is not documented in detail.
Additional Comments:Pay attention to my feedback. Do is given. Calculate D1 = Do(1+g)
Cost of equity = [(D1/Po) + g]
Learning Objective 6.2: Use a company’s cost of equity capital to compute the company’s WACC.:
NEEDS IMPROVEMENT
1 Calculation is inaccurate and/or incomplete.
Calculation is not documented in detail.
Additional Comments: Use correct cost of equity in WACC formula.
WACC = [(cost of equity) x (proportion of equity)] + [(cost of debt) x (proportion of debt) x (1-Tax Rate)]
Cost of debt is 7%, not 7.2%.
Check with tutor about math.
Learning Objective 6.3: Provide a recommendation based on analysis of a company’s WACC.:
NEEDS IMPROVEMENT
1 Recommendation does not identify weaknesses in the proposed expansion plan.
Recommendation does not provide a clear rationale.
Additional Comments: Review carefully the feedback provided in the last assessment.
Learning Objective 6.4: Calculate NPV, IRR, MIRR, payback, and discounted payback.:
