Alpha Corporation is considering buying Beta Corporation for $2,400,000 cash. Beta Corporation has a $600,000 tax loss carry forward that could be used immediately by Alpha Corporation. Alpha Corporation pays tax at the rate of 35%.
Beta Corporation will provide $300,000 per year in cash flow (in after tax income plus depreciation) for the next 20 years. If Alpha Corporation has a cost of capital of 11%, should Alpha Corporation go forward with the acquisition?
