Forecasting and Estimating Share Value Using the DCF Model
Following are the income statement and balance sheet for Intel Corporation.

*This should be considered as operating income.

** These investments are operating assets as they relate to associated companies.

(a) Compute Intel's net operating assets (NOA) for year-end 2010.
2010 NOA = $Answer



(b) Compute net operating profit after tax (NOPAT) for 2010, assuming a federal and state statutory tax rate of 37%.

HINT: Gains/losses on equity method investments are considered operating income. Round your answer to the nearest whole number.
2010 NOPAT = $Answer



(c) Forecast Intel's sales, NOPAT, and NOA for years 2011 through 2014 using the following assumptions:

Forecast the terminal period value using the assumptions above and assuming a terminal period growth of: 1%.

* Use sales rounded to nearest whole number for this calculation.


(d) Estimate the value of a share of Intel common stock using the discounted cash flow (DCF) model as of December 25, 2010; assume a discount rate (WACC) of 11%, common shares outstanding of 5,511 million, and net nonoperating obligations (NNO) of $(21,178) million (NNO is negative which means that Intel has net nonoperating investments).

Use your rounded answers for subsequent calculations.

Do not use negative signs with any of your answers below.

Answeryesno

Our lower stock price estimate may be due to more pessimistic forecasts or a higher discount rate compared to other investors' and analysts model assumptions.
Answeryesno

Our stock price estimate is higher than the INTC market price as of February 18, 2011, indicating that we believe the stock is undervalued.
Answeryesno

Stock prices are a function of expected NOPAT and NOA, as well as the WACC discount rate.
Answeryesno

Our higher stock price estimate may be due to more optimistic forecasts or a lower discount rate compared to other investors' and analysts model assumptions.

Explanation / Answer

Solution to part a:

Calculation of Net Operating Assets (NOA)

NOA = Total Assets - Total Liabilities - Financial Assets + Financial Liabilities

         = $63,186 - $13,256 – ($1,008 + $3,026 + $4,531 + $5,111 + $1,488 + $5,111) + ($1,677 + $38)

          = $31,370

Solution to part b:

NOPAT = Operating Income * (1 – Tax Rate)

             = $16,088 * (1 – 0.37)

              = 10,135.44
