Question 1Estimate the value of Mercury using a DCF. Use Liedtkes base case pro ections and assumptions as astarting point. E!plain your valuation steps along the "ay. #tate and motivate any and all assumptionsyou make or change.

Assumptions Foot"ear is a very "ell established mature industry and "ill therefore gro" at a rate near that of
the general economy at (.))* +ll forecasts are made under the assumption that ,-) corresponds to ()) +ll pro ections and forecasted financial data provided in the case are reasonable conclusions
based on the economic climate and indicators under "hich the firm operates.,here are no synergies or increased efficiencies that come about as a result of the combination ofthe t"o firms.+ three/year rolling average of historical e!penses as a percentage of revenue is a relativelyaccurate barometer of e!pected future e!penses.
