PROJECT-SPECIFIC WACC. In 2005, worldwide capacity of wind-powered generators was just under 60,000 megawatts. This constitutes less than 1 % of worldwide electricity use, but in Denmark wind power provides over 20 % of electricity. Moreover, the use of wind power has grown rapidly in recent years, quadrupling between 1999 and 2005. The key feature of wind power is its heavy capital intensity and low ongoing costs, as the wind is free. Combined with advance in wind-power-generation technology, the alternative power source appears to be one of the most promising clean energy sources for the future. Gusty Power Company (GPC) of Amarillo, Texas, builds and operates wind farms that produce electrical power that is then sold into the electrical grid. GPC has recently been contracted by the Plains Energy Company of Plainview, Texas, to construct one of the largest wind-power farms ever built. Plains energy is an independent power producer that normally sells all the electrical power it produces back into the power grid at prevailing market prices. However, in the instance Plains has arranged to sell all of its production to a consortium of electric power companies in the area for a long-term, contractually set prices. Assume that the project generates perpetual cash flows (annual PFCF of $ 8,000,000), debt principal is never repaid, capital expenditures (CAPEX) equal depreciation in each period, and the tax rate is 35%. Cost of equity 9,94%. The project calls for an investment of $100 million, and Plains has arranged for an $80 million project loan which has no recourse to Plain’s other assets. The loan carries a 7 % rate of interest, which reflects current market conditions for loans of this type. Plains will invest $10 million in the project, and the remainder will be provided by two local power companies that are part of the consortium that will purchase the electrical power the project produces.a.What the project-specific WACC calculated using the book values of debt and equity as a proportion of the $ 100 million cost of the project ? Given this estimate of the WACC, what is the value of the project ?b.Reevaluate the project-specific WACC using your estimate of the value of the project from part a above as the basis for your weights. Use this WACC to reestimate the value of the project and then recalculate the weights for the project-finance WACC using this revised estimate of WACC. Repeat this process until the value of the project converges to a stable value. What is the project’s value ? What is the project-finance WACC ? c.Reevaluate the project-specific WACC and project value where the contract calls for a 2,5 % rate of increase in the project free cash flow beginning in the second year of the project’s life.
