14-7 Setting the Target Distribution Level: The Residual Distribution Model
The optimal distribution ratio for a firm is a function of four factors. (1) Investors' preferences for dividends versus capital gains. (2) The firm's investment opportunities. (3) Its target capital structure. And (4), the availability and cost of external capital.
The last three elements can be combined into the residual distribution model. Within the residual model, firms must determine the optimal capital budget, determine the amount of equity needed to fund the capital budget (based upon the target capital structure), use reinvested earnings to meet equity requirements whenever possible, and make distributions to shareholders only if more earnings are available than are needed for dividends. The residual model can be expressed as:
Distributions = Net Income - [(Target equity ratio) * (Total capital budget)]
Consider a firm whose net income for the current year is $100 million, their target equity ratio is 60%, and the expected capital budget is $50 million. What are its distributions to be made to shareholders, according to the residual model?
Net Income $100
Target equity ratio 60%
Total capital budget $50
Distributions = Net Income - [(Target equity ratio) * (Total capital budget)]
= $100 - 60% * $50
= $70
Distribution = 70.0%
What if the expected capital budget rose to $166.67 million?
Total capital budget $166.67
Distributions = = Net Income - [(Target equity ratio) * (Total capital budget)]
= $100 - 60% * $167
= $0
Distribution = 0.0%
The firm could not have a negative dividend, so a negative distribution must be a stock issue rather than a stock repurchase. Under the residual policy, if investment opportunities exceed net income, the firm should pay zero dividends and issue stock (or else increase its debt ratio to fund the investment opportunities).
T&W's Distribution Ratio
Net income = $60
Target equity ratio (ws) = 60%
Poor Average Good
Capital budget $40 $70 $150
Net income $60 $60 $60
Required equity (ws X Capital budget) $24 $42 $90
Distributions paid (NI – Required equity) $36 $18 ($30) Note: a negative distribution means T&W would pay no dividends but would issue stock.
Distribution ratio (Dividend/NI) 60% 30% 0%

Notes:
a To simplify the example, we assume any short-term investment are held for only part of the year and earn no interest.
b If there is a financial surplus, it is shown as a short-term investment on December 30. These funds are distributed to investors on December 31, so the balance of short-term investments goes to zero on December 31.
c Because no special dividends have been paid out as of December 30, the retained earnings balance for that date is equal to the previous year's retained earnings balance plus the current year's net income less the regular dividends. When short-term investments are sold and their proceeds are used to make the special cash dividend payments on December 31, the balance of retained earnings is reduced by the amount of the total dividend payments (which is equal to the regular dividend and the reduction in short-term investments that funded the special dividend).

Notes:
All significant digits in are used in calculations, but numbers in the Figure are rounded, so columns may not total exactly. See Figure 14-1 for income statements and assets.
aWhen distributions are made as repurchases, the treasury stock account is reduced by the dollar value of the repurchase at the time of the repurchase, which occurs when short-term investments are liquidated and used to repurchase stock.
bBecause no funds are paid out in dividends, the retained earnings balance is equal to the previous balance plus the year's net income because all net income is being retained.

A firm's most recent FCF was $2.4 million; the FCF is expected to grow at a constant rate of 5%. The WACC is 14% and there are 2 million shares outstanding. The firm has $12 million in short-term investments which it plans to liquidate distribute in a stock repurchase; the firm has no other financial investments or debt. Verify that the value of operations is $28 million. Immediately prior to the repurchase, what are the intrinsic value of equity and the intrinsic stock price? How many shares will be repurchased? How many shares will remain after the repurchase? Immediately after the repurchase, what are the intrinsic value of equity and the intrinsic stock price?
