    Value created only if firm earns a rate of returnthat exceeds its WACC

    Example: EVA of a company with:

    Long-term debt of $3,900, equity of $8,200 Marginal tax rate of $450/$1,300 WACC of 10% Operating income (EBIT) of $1,600

    Economic Value Added (EVA)

    v4.0 2013 Association for Financial Professionals. All rights reserved. Session 10: Module 5, Chapter 19 - 51

    EVA = EBIT (1 Tax Rate) (WACC)(Long-term Debt + Equity)

    = $1,600 (1 0.34615) (.10)($3,900 + $8,200)

    = $1,600 (0.65385) (.10)($12,100)

    = $1,046 $1,210 = -$164
