The second acquisition target is a privately held company in a growing industry. The target has recently borrowed $40 million to finance its expansion; it has no other debt or preferred stock. It pays no dividends and currently has no marketable securities.

What is the EROIC of each division for 5% growth and for 6% growth? How is this related to MVA?
