MOTHERBOARD SHOES, FINANCIAL MODEL
using mid-year valuation
 
  Several features of the model used by John Mba to value Motherboard Shoes are: 
•
  Net fixed assets are assumed constant.  John assumes that—as long as depreciation is 
invested back into fixed assets—Motherboard Shoes will need no more fixed assets.  
Another way of thinking about this assumption is that the major expenses incurred for 
fixed assets are equal to the depreciation expenses.  As you can see in row 30 of the
