A sporting goods manufacturer has decided to expand into another related business. Management has estimated that to build and staff a facility of the desired size would cost $450 million in present value terms. As an alternative, the company could acquire an existing company with the desired capacity. The book value of the alternative company is $250 million, and its earnings before interest and taxes is presently $50 million. Publicly traded comparable companies are selling in a range of 12 times current earnings. The companies have book value debt-to-asset ratios averaging 40 percent with an average interest rate of 10%.
