Problem: Assume you sell for $100,000 a 10 percent ownership stake in a future payment one year from now of $1.5 million.
Q1. What are you saying about the implied return for the 10 percent owner?
Q2. What is the present value of the entire $1.5 million, using the implied return from Part B?
Q3. What is 10 percent of the value determined in Part B?
Q4. Does it matter whether you grow the $100,000 at 50 percent to $150,000 and note it is 10 percent of $1.5 million, or discount the $1.5 million at 50 percent to get $1 million and not that $100,000 is 10 percent of this value?
