1. What is the enterprise value of SUN Brewing on July 31, 2004?

The enterprise value of SUN Brewing, as of July 31, 2004, is $1,616.62 million. To compute the enterprise value of Sun Interbrew, we used the information provided in Exhibit 9a (SUN Interbrew Income and Cash Flow Statement Projections, 2004-2010) to calculate a five-year free cash flow projection.

Furthermore, we used a discount rate of 12% because this is the estimated Weighted Average Cost of Capital (“WACC”) of the company as of July 31, 2004.

Also, to compute the terminal value of free cash flows at the end of cash flow projections, we used a 5% constant growth rate.

Lastly, we performed a sensitivity analysis on the enterprise value by adjusting the constant growth rates to see the possible range of values of the EV. The assumptions and the computation of the free cash flows and terminal value are shown below:
