Ben Toucan wants to estimate the value of his idea for a new restaurant in Aspen Colorado. The project is in the Development/Start-up Stage. He began in the spring of 2012 with site selection and purchase/lease payments; contracting build out; equipment procurement and staffing at a total cost of $ 250,000. He expects the restaurant will open in 2013, but will not begin to Build positive Cash Flows until 2016. After tax cash flows during the start-up/growth periods are expected to be: 2013 (-$.25 MIL); 2014 (-$.5 MIL); 2015 (-$.1 MIL); 2016 ($ 1.5 mil) 2017 ($ 4.5 MIL). After 2017 Restaurant Cash Flows are projected to grow at 4% per year.

Ben will personally fund all costs through early 2014, when he will need to raise $ 1.2 MIL in external capital which he expects will get the project to positive cash flow and sustainment in 2015. He expects that 2014 investors will require a 30% return to compensate for the risk of they are taking at that time. He needs to estimate the value of his business before beginning negotiations with investors.
