a. The company’s sales for 2001 were $455,150,000, and EBITDA was 15 percent of sales. Furthermore,
depreciation amounted to 11 percent of net fixed assets, interest charges were $8,575,000, the
state-plus-federal corporate tax rate was 40 percent, and Cumberland pays 40 percent of its net income
out in dividends. Given this information, construct Cumberland's 2001 income statement.
The input information required for the problem is outlined in the "Key Input Data" section below. Using
this data and the balance sheet above, we constructed the income statement shown below.

d. Calculate the firm’s EVA and MVA for 2001. Assume that Laiho had 10 million shares outstanding, that
the year-end closing stock price was $17.25 per share, and its after-tax cost of capital was 12 percent.
The firm's market value exceeds its book value by $14.895 million. This means that management has added this
much to shareholder value over the company's history. It would have to be compared to the MVA of other
companies before declaring the performance good, bad, or indifferent.
EVA shows how much value management has added during the latest year. The $7.828 million appears to be
pretty good, but again, industry comparisons would be helpful. We discuss such comparisons in Chapter 3.
