Mini-Case Analysis 2: Excel Hydro Inc.
Excel Hydro took a loan contract which requires a payment of $40 million plus interest two years after the contract's date of issue. The interest rate on the $40 million face value is 9.6% compounded quarterly. Before the maturity date, the original lender sold the contract to a pension fund for $43 million. The sale price was based on a discount rate of 8.5% compounded semi-annually from the date of sale.
Excel Hydro is also considering building a nuclear power plant, which will be ready for production in 2030. The country's governing body is also considering a decommissioning liability law for the operator to put aside $1 million every month towards decommissioning cost. If the production life of the plant is 60 years and the operator puts the money at the end of the month in a savings account, earning 7.25% compounded monthly.
During the 60 years of production life of the plant, the operator will put $1 million at the end of the month in a savings account, earning 7.25% compounded monthly.
