Problems/Essays
1. Assume you want to calculate the EVA for Schering-Plough for 2000 using the Harnischfeger approach. What would NOPAT
equal?
2. Your firm is considering investing in an asset that would produce net cash flows of $100,000 five months from today.
Thereafter, net cash flows are expected to occur quarterly and are expected to increase by 2% per quarter. The asset will not
produce any cash flows beyond 4 years from today. The expected return on the asset will depend on the economy as follows:
Economy Probability Return S&P500
Boom 35% 45% 35%
Average 40% 12% 11%
Bust 25% -22% -3%
The risk-free rate is 3.78%.
a. What is the beta of the asset?
b. What is the value of the asset?

the change should be to the left of the original feasible set and the line through the point of tangency should
now be steeper (and should be tangent to the new feasible set).
