David Ortiz Motors has a target capital structure of 45% debt and 55% equity. The yield to maturity on the company's outstanding bonds is 12%, and the company's tax rate is 40%. Ortiz's CFO has calculated the company's WACC as 11.35%. What is the company's cost of equity capital

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

the company's cost of equity capital is 14.75 %.

Explanation:

WACC = ke × (E/V) + kd × (D/V)

Where,

ke = cost of equity

    = this is unknown

E/V = Weight of Equity

      = 55%

kd = cost of debt

     = Interest × ( 1 - tax rate)

     = 12% × ( 1 - 0.40)

     = 7.20 %

D/V = Weight of Debt

       = 45%

Therefore,

WACC = ke × (E/V) + kd × (D/V)

11.35% = 55%ke + 7.20 % × 45%

11.35% = 55%ke + 3.24 %

55%ke = 8.11 %

ke = 14.75 %

Cole Co. began constructing a building for its own use in January 2016. During 2016, Cole incurred interest of $50,000 on specific construction debt, and $20,000 on other borrowings. Interest computed on the weighted-average amount of accumulated expenditures for the building during 2016 was $40,000. What amount of interest should Cole capitalize?

Answers

Answer:

$40,000

Explanation:

The accounting procedure involved in the above is that one picks the lower between the actual interest incurred and the interest computed on the weighted average amount of accumulated expenditures for PPE.

The actual interest incurred on specific construction debt and other borrowings

= $50,000 + $20,000

= $70,000

Since the interest computed on the weighted average amount of accumulated expenditure for the building is $40,000 , the lower between the actual interest incurred and interest on weighted average amount of accumulated expenditure is $40,000, hence will be the capitalized amount.

Answer:

yes i agree coz nowadays even in my family, the outsiders give more respect and praise my big brother as he earns big income

The decision that could be made regarding the statement that "In the modern world, income has turned equivalent to success" would be:

Yes.

The reason to agree with this statement is due to the increased importance that the modern world has provided to money.For example, a person is considered successful only when he earns a handsome amount while a person with a lower or average income but greater satisfaction level is considered unsuccessful. However, there is also a saying that "money can't buy happiness" which suggests that people can be sad even after having money and vice versa.Thus, it depends on the individual's perception and the way they equate success with happiness or material possessions.

As the assistant to the CFO of Johnstone Inc., you must estimate its cost of common equity. You have been provided with the following data: D 0 = $0.80; P 0 = $22.50; and g = 8.00% (constant). Based on the DCF approach, what is the cost of common from reinvested earnings?

Answers

Answer:

The cost of common equity from reinvested earnings is 11.84%

Explanation:

The constant growth model of DDM or DCF approach is used to calculate the price of a stock today whose dividends are expected to grow at a constant rate forever. The model values the stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends form the stock.

The formula for price today under this model is,

P0 = D0 * (1+g) / (r - g)

Where,

P0 is price todayD0 is the dividend todayr is the cost of equityg is the growth rate in dividends

Plugging in the available values for all the variables, we can calculate the r or cost of common equity to be,

22.5 = 0.8 * (1+0.08) / (r - 0.08)

22.5 * (r - 0.08) = 0.864

22.5r - 1.8 = 0.864

22.5r = 0.864 + 1.8

r = 2.664 / 22.5

r = 0.1184 or 11.84%

If a firm is producing so that the point chosen along the production possibility frontier is socially preferred, then that firm is said to have reached its:________

a. allocative efficiency
b. productive efficiency
c. utility-maximizing efficiency
d. minimum price efficiency


Answers

Answer:

b

Explanation:

Productive efficiency means that production is been carried out with no waste.  

Production possibility frontier is a curve that shows the various combinations of goods that can be produced in an economy when all resources are fully utilised.

On the ppf, all resources are fully utilised, so there is productive efficiency.

The term economies of scale refers to the fact that as the:
o physical size of the product gets larger, the costs of production become lower
O quantity of product produced in a given period increases, the cost of manufacturing each unit increases
o quantity of product produced in a given period increases, the cost of manufacturing each unit remains constant
quantity of product produced in a given period increases, the cost of manufacturing each unit decreases
Need!​

Answers

Answer:

quantity of product produced in a given period increases, the cost of manufacturing each unit decreases

Explanation:

Economies of scale happens when the average total cost (variable + fixed production costs per unit) decreases as total output increases. This generally takes place because fixed costs are the same for a small number of units produced or a large number of units produced, so the average fixed cost per unit tend to decrease as more units are produced (at least up to certain point). Variable production costs per unit can also decrease as total output increases since materials might be purchased in larger quantities resulting in higher discounts or labor productivity increases.

The expected before-tax IRR on a potential real estate investment is 14 percent. The expected after-tax IRR is 10.5 percent. What is the effective tax rate on this investment?

Answers

Answer:

25%

Explanation:

The expected before-tax IRR on a potential real estate investment is 14%

The expected after-tax IRR is 10.15%

Therefore, the effective tax rate on this investment can be calculated as follows

Effective tax rate= 1-(after-tax IRR/before-tax IRR)

Effective tax rate= 1-(10.15/14)

= 1-0.75

= 0.25×100

= 25%

Hence the effective tax rate is 25%

On January 1, 2017, Boston Enterprises issues bonds that have a $1,850,000 par value, mature in 20 years, and pay 7% interest semiannually on June 30 and December 31. The bonds are sold at par. 1. How much interest will Boston pay (in cash) to the bondholders every six months

Answers

Answer:

Interest per six months =$64,750 .

Explanation:

Bonds are instruments used by companies, governments and other entries to borrow from the public.

They represent a contractual agreement where  the borrower commits to pay a percentage of the principal amount borrowed plus the principal amount to the lender or investor.

The proportion of the amount borrowed which is paid as interest is called coupon. The interest payment is computed as the the coupon rate in percentage multiplied by the amount borrowed.

Interest payment = Coupon rate (%) × Nominal Value

 Annual interest payment    = 7%  × 1,850,000 =$129,500

Semi-annual interest payment = Annual interest payment/2

Semi-annual interest payment =129,500 /2 =64,750 .

Interest per six months =$64,750 .

Note we had to divide by 2 because they are two six months in a year.

In a transaction for a good valued at $550 by a buyer and $500 by a seller, what percentage sales tax (assume tax on $500) would result in an unconsummated transaction

Answers

Answer:

A percentage sales tax that is more than 10% will result in an unconsummated transaction, because the buyer is not willing to pay more than $550 for the good.

Explanation:

A sales tax of 10% will make the good to cost $550 ($500 x 1.1).  This is the maximum value placed on the good by the buyer.  If the rate of the sales tax exceeds this rate, the buyer will likely not buy the good unless it is an essential good that she cannot do without.  So, in levying sales taxes, it is important to understand the demand elasticity of the good.  A good whose demand is inelastic is more likely to favor high sales tax rates than a similar good with elastic demand.  This elasticity of demand tries to explain the response that demand will generate based on an increase or a decrease in price of a good.

1. Break-even point in units of sales.

Contribution per unit = sales - VC

Contribution per unit = $50 - $25

Contribution per unit = $25

Break even point in units = Fixed costs / Contribution per unit

Break even point in units = $60,000 / $25

Break even point in units = 2400 units

2. Unit sales required to realize operating income = $100,000

Sales required = (Fixed costs + Operating income) / Contribution per unit

Sales required = ($60,000 + $100,000) / $25

Sales required = 6400 units

3. Operating income if sales total = $400,000

Contribution margin = [$25/ $50]100 = 50%

Operating income = Contribution margin - Fixed costs

Operating income = ($400,000 × 50%) - $60,000

Operating income = $140,000

A newly issued 20-year maturity, zero-coupon bond is issued with a yield to maturity of 8% and face value $1,000. Find the imputed interest income in: (a) the first year; (b) the second year; and (c) the last year of the bond’s life.

Answers

Answer:

First Year $ 17.17

Second Year $ 18.53

Last Year $ 74.08

Explanation:

Computation to Find the imputed interest income in: (a) the first year; (b) the second year; and (c) the last year of the bond’s life

Imputed Interest

First step

Using this formula

Imputed interest=(Present Value /1+Yield to maturity)^Numberd of years

Year Years Remaining to Maturity Constant Yield Value ( 1 / 1.08)^n

0 20 (1/1.08)^20= $ 214.54

1 19 (1/1.08)^19=$ 231.71

2 18 (1/1.08)^18=$ 250.24

19 1 (1/1.08)^1=$ 925.92

20 0 (1/1.08)^0=$ 1,000

Second step is to find the Imputed interest for the first year, second year; and the last year of the bond’s life

Year Years Remaining to Maturity Constant Yield Value ( 1 / 1.08)^n =Imputed Interest

0 20 $ 214.54

1 19 $ 231.71 $17.17

($231.71-$214.54)= $17.17

2 18 $ 250.24 $18.53

($250.24-$231.71)=$18.53

19 1 $ 925.92

20 0 $ 1,000 $74.08

($1,000-$925.92) =$74.08

Therefore the imputed interest will be:

First Year $ 17.17

Second Year $ 18.53

Last Year $ 74.08

On December 18, 2017, Stephanie Corporation acquired 100 percent of a Swiss company for 4.0 million Swiss francs (CHF), which is indicative of book and fair value. At the acquisition date, the exchange rate was $1.00 = CHF 1. On December 18, 2017, the book and fair values of the subsidiary’s assets and liabilities were:

Cash CHF 814,000
Inventory 1,314,000
Property, plant & equipment 4,014,000
Notes payable 2,128,000

Stephanie prepares consolidated financial statements on December 31, 2017. By that date, the Swiss franc has appreciated to $1.10 = CHF 1. Because of the year-end holidays, no transactions took place prior to consolidation.

Required:
a. Determine the translation adjustment to be reported on Stephanie’s December 31, 2017, consolidated balance sheet, assuming that the Swiss franc is the Swiss subsidiary’s functional currency. What is the economic relevance of this translation adjustment?

b. Determine the remeasurement gain or loss to be reported in Stephanie’s 2017 consolidated net income, assuming that the U.S. dollar is the functional currency. What is the economic relevance of this remeasurement gain or loss?

Answers

Answer:

a. Translation adjustment = $401,400

b. Remeasurement loss = –$131,400

Explanation:

a. Determine the translation adjustment to be reported on Stephanie’s December 31, 2017, consolidated balance sheet, assuming that the Swiss franc is the Swiss subsidiary’s functional currency. What is the economic relevance of this translation adjustment?

This can determined as follows:

Step 1: Calculation of beginning net asset in

Particular                                         Amount (CHF)    

Cash CHF                                             814,000

Inventory                                             1,314,000

Property, plant & equipment            4,014,000

Notes payable                                (2,128,000)  

Beginning net asset                        4,014,000  

Beginning net asset in USD = Beginning net asset in Swiss francs (CHF) * Beginning exchange rate = CHF4.014,000 * $1 = $4,014,000

Step 2: Calculation of ending net asset

Ending net asset in USD = Beginning net asset  in Swiss francs (CHF) * Ending exchange rate = CHF4.014,000 * $1.10 = $4,415,400

Step 3: Calculation translation adjustment

Translation adjustment = Ending net asset in USD - Beginning net asset in USD = $4,415,400 - $4,014,000 = $401,400

Economic relevance of this translation adjustment

The positive translation adjustment implies that the equity of stockholders has increased by $401,000.

We obtained a positive value because the net position of the subsidiary in Switzerland is CHF4,014,000 and there was a Swiss franc appreciation of $0.10 (i.e. $1.10 - $1.00 = $0.10).

The translation adjustment of $401,000 does not however implies that it was made as a dollar cash flow. The only condition that can make to turn to a profit is if this operation is sold at CHF4,014,000 on December 31 and the amount realized as a proceed is changed to dollars at ruling exchange rate of $1.10 to a Swiss franc on December 31, 2017.

b. Determine the remeasurement gain or loss to be reported in Stephanie’s 2017 consolidated net income, assuming that the U.S. dollar is the functional currency. What is the economic relevance of this remeasurement gain or loss?

This can be determined as follows:

Beginning net liabilities in Swiss franc = Cash - Note payable = CHF814,000 - CHF2,128,000 = –CHF1,314,000

Beginning net liabilities in USD = Beginning net liabilities in Swiss franc * Beginning exchange rate = –CHF1,314,000  * $1.00 = –$1,314,000

Ending net liabilities in USD = Beginning net liabilities in Swiss franc * Ending exchange rate = –CHF1,314,000  * $1.10 = –$1,445,400

Remeasurement loss = Ending net liabilities in USD – Beginning net liabilities in USD = [–$1,445,400] – [–$1,314,000] = –$131,400

Economic relevance of this remeasurement gain or loss

There is a negative remeasurement or remeasurement lost because the net monetary liability position of the Swiss subsidiary is CHF 1,314,000. The appreciation of the Swiss franc by $0.10 results in a loss of $131,400] that not is unrealized.

The readjustment loss of $131,400 does not however implies that it was a dollar cash outflow. The only condition that can make it to turn to a loss is if this operation is sold on December 31. This will lead to the realization of a transaction gain of $81,400 [i.e. CHF814,000 x ($1.10 - $1.00)].

Also, the Swiss franc note payable will be paid off by using the US dollar. This will bring about the realization of a truncation loss of $212,800 [i.e. CHF2,128,000 x ($1.10 - $1.00)].

A stock currently sells for $34 a share but is expected to increase in value over the next six months to at least $36 a share. Assume there are 6-month options available on this stock with an exercise price of $35. Which of these options should have the most value today?a. American and European calls equallyb. European callc. European putd. American pute. American call

Answers

Answer:  American call

Explanation:

The price of the underlying stock is going to increase to at least $36 which is more than the exercise price on the option of $35. The option that would have more value therefore is a Call option because call options make profit when the exercise price is less than the market price.

The more valuable call option between the European and American call options is the American call option. This is because with an American call option, the holder is free to call in the option at any point in time up to the exercise date while a European option has to wait till the exercise date.

The American Call option is therefore the option with the most value today.

Answer:

a. Compute the ratio of times-interest-earned.

times-interest-earned = EBIT / interest expense

EBIT = $4,839,900interest expense = $2,210,000

times-interest-earned = $4,839,900 / $2,210,000 = 2.19

b. Compute the debt-to-equity ratio.

debt-to-equity ratio = total liabilities / total stockholders' equity

total liabilities = $900,000total stockholders' equity = $400,000

debt-to-equity ratio = $900,000 / $400,000 = 2.25

(c) Payout ratio %
(d) Times interest earned times

Answers

Answer:

a. $6.85

b. 1.4 times

c. 11.9%

d. 17 times

Explanation:

a)  Weighted Average number of common shares outstanding = (Number of common shares outstanding in the beginning + Number of common shares outstanding in the end)/2

= (16,000 +24,000) /2

= 20,000 shares

Earnings per share = (Net income – Preferred stock dividend)/Weighted Average number of common shares outstanding

= (140,000 - 3,000) / 20,000

= 137,000/20,000

= $6.85

b) Price earnings ratio = Market price of 1 common share/Earnings per share

= 9.59 / 6.85

= 1.4 times

c)  Payout ratio = Cash dividends on common stock/Net income

= 16,600 / 140,000

= 0.11857

= 11.9%

d)  Times interest earned = (Net income + Interest expense + Tax expense) / Interest expense

= (140,000 + 10,000 + 20,000)/10,000

= 170,000 / 10,000

= 17 times
