What is its value of operations? What is its intrinsic MVA?

EROIC:

EROIC stands for Expected return on invested capital. Thus, it differs from WACC in the sense that WACC is basically required return on invested capital. Hence, to earn profit, EROIC has to be greater than WACC.

Answer and Explanation:

Value of operations = {eq}Initial\;cost+ \left ( \left \{ \frac{Initial cost}{WACC-g}\right \}\times (EROIC-WACC) \right ) {/eq}

= {eq}200M+ \left ( \left \{ \frac{200M}{0.10-0.05}\right \}\times (0.09-0.10) \right ) {/eq}

=$160M Intrinsic MVA = Value of operations - Initial cost =$160M - $200M = -$40M

Thus, market value added is negative
