You are asked to value the Bear Bar

Finance Sep 01, 2020

You are asked to value the Bear Bar. You have been doing research at the Bear Bar but you keep drinking too much and forgetting the details. You remember that the rent is something like $2,000 per week but could go up to $3,000 per week when the lease expires in two years. Utilities and insurance are approximately 500 per week. There is an extra worker 3 nights a week at $500 per night. You estimate that they sell 150 drinks per night (not including the free drinks to "Friends of the Bear Bar”. The average drink sells for $12 and they are open 5 nights a week. The cost of the drinks is approximately 30% of the revenue. The food they sell breaks even but brings in a lot more patrons.

Expert Solution

Sales (drinks) per night = 150

No.of weeks per year. = 52

Bear bar open per week = 5days

Total no. of days open per year =52*5 = 260 days

Sales (drink) yearly = 260*150 = 39,000

Selling price = $12

Total revenue = 39,000*12 = $468,000

Cost (30%) of revenue $468,000*30% = 140,400

Rent Per year = 2,000*52 = 104,000

Utilities and insurance cost per year = 500*52 =$26,000

Extra wages payment = 3*52*500 = $78,000

So, the net profits per year would be as follows

Revenue $468,000
Less: Cost 30% ($140,400)
Gross income $327,600
Utilities and insurance ($26,000)
Rent expenses ($104,000)
Additional wages ($78,000)
Annual profit $119,600

Hence , option (3) is the answer

(2)

Rent expenses = 3,000*52 = $156,000

Annual profits = 468,000 - 140,400 -26,000 - 78,000 - 156,000 = $67,600

Business, cannot pay $100,000 becaues the annual profits is $67,600

Option (4) is the answer

(3)...

sales drink per year = 130*52*5 = 33,800

Sales Revenue per yr = 33,800*14 = 473,200

Rent per year = 2,000*52 = $104,000

Calculation of annual profits

Profits = 473,200*70% - 104,000 - 26,000 - 78,000

= $123,240

Incresing in Price would results increase in profits to $123,240

Option (3) is the answer

(4).....

PV of C.F = Cash flows*(PVIF10%,n)

PV of cash flows =119600*1.7355 + 67,600*2.055 = $346,505
