Strict Alternative For Identifying Value Constructive Enterprise : PDD Case Study
.
An enterprise is said to be value constructive if the following criteria is met:
ROA > CTAC
.
It's a far more stringent criteria as compared to ROIC > Cost of Capital.
.
Where:
CTAC = 100 × (CTAC Factor - 1)
.
CTAC Factor
= Clean Total Assets Cost Factor
= 30Y Government Bond Yield Factor × (1 + Total Liabilities/Total Equity × (1 + Prime Ratio + Spread Ratio) ÷ (1 + Total Liabilities/Total Equity)
.
Conventions:
CTAC Factor
= 1 + CTAC Ratio
.
CTAC
= Clean Total Assets Cost
= 100 × CTAC Ratio
= 100 × (CTAC Factor - 1)
.
PDD Case Study:
(1)
ROA = 16.6638511789
.
(2)
CTAC Factor
= Clean Total Assets Cost Factor
= 30Y Government Bond Yield Factor × (1 + Total Liabilities/Total Equity × (1 + Prime Ratio + Spread Ratio) ÷ (1 + Total Liabilities/Total Equity)
= 1.04864×(1+0.5680113735×1.10)÷(1+0.5680113735)
= 1.0866269341
.
CTAC = 8.66269341
.
(3)
ROA 16.6638511789 > CTAC 8.66269341
.

Conclusion:
PDD is value constructive.
