Finance Aug 08, 2020

Home Depot entered fiscal 2017 with a total capitalization of $21,895 million. In 2017, debt investors received interest income of $874 million. Net income to shareholders was $8,645 million. (Assume a tax rate of 21%.)

Calculate the economic value added assuming its cost of capital is 10%. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer in millions rounded to 2 decimal places.)

Expert Solution

Computation of the economic value added:-

Net operating profit after tax (NOPAT) = Net Income + (Interest expense * (1 - Tax rate))

= $8,645 + ($874 * (1 - 21%))

= $8,645 + $690.46

= $9,335.46 million

Economic value added = NOPAT - (Total capitalization * Cost of capital)

= $9,335.46 - ($21,895 * 10%)

= $9,335.46 - $2,189.50

= $7,145.96 million
