Can you help me solve a case study in Buyout investing: Performance & Investor return: The VFF case

VFF (Very First Fund) is a fund launched in Jan 2009 which managed to raise 320 million $ in fund committed that has implemented its last exit in Jan 2018.

It had a straight forward fee structure: -1.5% yearly management fee on capital committed -0.5% transaction fee borne by acquired companies -20% carried interest rate applied to capital gains with a hurdle rate of 7% compounded yearly average -A Claw back provision so carried fees do not exceed 20% of total capital gain (taking into account the hurdle rate.) . Such provision would be taken into account when closing the fund

Use the data below for VFF and:

  1. Compute the theoretical IRR for each Company
  2. compute the after fee performance of VFF fund using the most common matrix (IRR, DPI, DCC)
  3. Compute the MIRR for a limited partner that would have invested all non committed funds at an average rate of 5%. This rate will also apply to all distributed CF
  4. What is your opinion on the fund performance?
