Debt financing has one important advantage that the early Modigliani and Miller (MM) propositions ignored: the interest on business debt is tax deductible. This benefit means that the amount of taxes that a business is required to
pay will be reduced by a phenomenon called an interest tax shield, which is a function of the amount of debt in the firm's capital structure and its tax rate. In contrast, the dividends that a corporation pays on its common and
preferred shares are not tax deductible.

Consider the case of Green Llama Foodstuffs, Inc.:

At the beginning of the year, Blue Chipmunk Foodstuffs, Inc. had an unlevered value of $8,500,000. It pays federal and state taxes at the marginal rate of 40%, and currently has $2,500,000 in debt capital in its capital structure.

According to MM Proposition I with taxes, Green Llama Foodstuffs is allowed to recognize a tax shield of ___________, and the levered value of the firm is:

a. $7,100,000
b. $12,500,000
c. $9,900,000
d. $4,500,000

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

c. $9,500,000

Explanation:

Un-levered value = $8,500,000

Tax= 40% = 0.4

Debt capital= $2,500,000

Tax shield = Debt capital * Tax

Tax shield = $2,500,000 * 0.4

Tax shield = $1,000,000

Levered value = Unlevered value + Tax shield

Levered value = $8,500,000 + $1,000,000

Levered value = $9,500,000

The last dividend paid by Coppard Inc. was $1.25. The dividend growth rate is expected to be constant at 27.5% for 3 years, after which dividends are expected to grow at a rate of 6% forever. If the firm's required return (rs) is 11%, what is its current stock price

Answers

Answer:

36.38

Explanation:

The Current stock price can be calculated by identifying Present value of dividends in all three years adding terminal value of dividends in year 3.

Year Dividend Growth  Dividend   PV factor  Present Values

1  1.25           127.5%   1.59    0.900901         1.43  

 2  1.59           127.5%   2.03           0.811622          1.64  

 3  2.03          127.5%   2.59    0.731191     1.88  

 3                                    42.987(w)  0.731191           31.43  

Total PV                                                                     36.38  

Current Dividend = 2.59    

Rate of return       = 11.00%    

Growth Rate        = 6.00%    

Terminal value = Current Dividend*(1+Growth rate)/(Rate of return-Growth Rate)

Terminal value = 2.59 x (1+0.06) / (0.11-0.06)  

Terminal value =42.987

   

Current stock price = 1.43 +1.64+1.88+31.43

Current stock price = 36.38  

Explain how growth in the demand for​ Australia's natural resources would affect the demand for Australian dollars in the foreign exchange market. Explain how the supply of Australian dollars would change.

Answers

Answer:

The question here is that of the balance of trade and the principles of demand and supply.  

According to the Economics principles of demand and supply, when demand is high, prices follow in the same direction and the currency appreciates in value.

So, on one hand, when the demand for Australia's natural resources increases, because the legal tender recognised within Australia's borders is its own currency, trading partners are forced to convert from their currency into the Australian dollars thus creating an increased demand for the currency.

On the other hand, if the value of a countrys imports is more than the value of its export transactions, the opposite would happen, that is, its currency depreciates or loses value.

XYZ, Inc. has a beta of 0.8. The yield on a 3-month T-bill is 5%, and the yield on a 10-year T-bond is 7%. The market risk premium is 5.5%, and the return on an average stock in the market last year was 20%. What is the estimated cost of common equity using the CAPM? Show your work

Answers

Answer:

the estimated cost of common equity using the CAPM is 11.40 %.

Explanation:

Cost of Equity = Return on the Risk Free Security + Beta × Return on Market Portfolio

                       = 7.00 % +  0.8 × 5.5%

                       = 11.40 %

The estimated cost of common equity using the CAPM is 11.40 %.

Calculation of the cost of common equity;

Since the return on risk-free rate is 7%, beta is 0.8 and, the market risk premium is 5.5%

So here the cost of common equity should be

= Return on the Risk Free + Beta × Market risk premium

= 7.00 % +  0.8 × 5.5%

= 11.40 %

Hence, The estimated cost of common equity using the CAPM is 11.40 %.

Answers

Answer:

Option A. 0.79

Explanation:

All we have to do is convert the levered beta into unlevered beta (100% equity financed). So we will use the following formula to find unlevered beta:

Unlevered Beta = Levered Beta /  (1   +  (1+T)* D/E)

Here,

Tax rate is 40%

Debt is 40%

Equity is 60%

And Levered Beta is 1.10

Now by putting values, we have:

Unlevered Beta =     1.10   / (1   +  (1 - 0.4)* 40% / 60%)

Unlevered Beta =     1.10  / (1 +   0.6 * .667)

Unlevered Beta =     1.10  / (1 +    0.4)

Unlevered Beta =     1.10  / (1.4)

Unlevered Beta =     0.786 which after rounding off we have 0.79

A PHLX Jan 80 Swiss Franc Call contract is quoted at 2 when the Swiss Franc closes at 77. The contract is:_______

Answers

Answer:

Out the money.

Explanation:

A PHLX Jan 80 Swiss Franc Call contract is quoted at 2 when the Swiss Franc closes at 77. The contract is out the money.

An out the money ultimately implies that an option only has an extrinsic value but no intrinsic value. The extrinsic value of an option refers to the difference between its intrinsic value and the market value (premium). An extrinsic value is affected by the volatility in the market and its time value. The intrinsic value of an asset refers to the calculated, true or real value of an asset and is solely affected by internal factors.

A call is out the money when the strike price is greater than or above the underlying price of an asset. This simply means that, it's market value (price) has fallen below its strike price.

In this scenario, the market price of the call is 77 while its strike price is 80; thus, the call option is out the money by 3.

a. What is the company’s total book value of debt?
b. What is the company’s total market value of debt?
c. What is your best estimate of the aftertax cost of debt?

Answers

Answer:

a. What is the company’s total book value of debt?

total book value of debt = $60,000,000 + $35,000,000 = $95,000,000

 

b. What is the company’s total market value of debt?

total market value of debt = ($60,000,000 x 1.07) + ($35,000,000 x 0.76) = $64,200,000 + $26,600,000 = $90,800,000

c. What is your best estimate of the after tax cost of debt?

weight of debt (using market value):

$64,200,000 / $90,800,000 = 70.7%

$26,600,000 / $90,800,000 = 29.3%

YTM bond I = {1,200,000 + [(60,000,000 - 64,200,000)/56]} / [(60,000,000 + 64,200,000)/2] = 1,125,000 / 62,100,000 = 1.8115 x 2 = 3.62%

YTM bond II = (35 / 26.6)¹/¹⁰ - 1 = 2.78%

after tax cost of debt = (0.707 x 3.62% x 0.79) + (0.293 x 2.78% x 0.79) = 2.02% + 0.64% = 2.66%

C. services contract.

D. employment contract.

Answer:

B. contract involving personal skill.

Explanation:

In this scenario, Edna a leading brain surgeon in the United States enters into a contract to perform a complicated brain surgery on Ben. However, Edna is very busy and wants to assign this contract to a less experienced surgeon, Charles which would be his first operation of this type. Hence, Ben can object to this assignment (brain surgery) and prevent it because the contract between Ben and Edna is a contract involving personal skill.

Apparently, it can be deduced that Edna has competent and professional skills which is the reason why she's the leading brain surgeon in USA. Ben having this information at his disposal chose to go into the contract with Edna, who is an experienced brain surgeon. Therefore, the contract between the two (2) parties is solely based on Edna's personal skill.

Answers

the answer is this true

What is experience curve pricing?

Pricing for Experience Curve is Depending on the company's level of expertise in creating the goods, the price is set. Every time a corporation doubles its expertise in creating a product, the cost of selling that product or service drops by 10% to 30%.

A business can use less time and resources or produce products more effectively as it gains experience. As a result, it may provide a lower price since costs are reduced.

The pricing of a product at a lower than average-cost level on the theory that costs will reduce as manufacturing expertise improves allows the product to become cheaper as it continues through the product life cycle.

Muy Bueno Bakery sells three different products. Currently they are not able to meet all of their customers' demand. Using the following information, determine the price of the cake needed to meet the same contribution margin as the cookies. Cake Pie Cookies Contribution margin $18 $11 $3 Production hours 2 1.5 .25 Variable cost $12 $7 $1 Contribution margin/hr. $9 $7.33 $12 Current selling price $30 $18 $5 a.$45 b.$30 c.$42 d.$36

Answers

Answer:

d. $36

Explanation:

The Contribution margin is the net of selling price and variable cost of a product. It is calculated by deducting the variable cost from the selling price of a product.

                                          Cake   Pie    Cookies

Current selling price          $30    $18    $5

Variable cost                      $12     $7      $1

Contribution margin           $18     $11     $3

Production hours                2        1.5     0.25

Contribution margin/hr.     $9     $7.33  $12

Required Contribution margin per hour of cake = $12

Required Contribution margin = $12 x 2 = $24

Required Selling Price = Contribution margin + variable cost = $24 + $12 = $36

Note there is a mistake in the calculation of Contribution margin of Cookies as it is given $3 but after deducting the variable cost from selling price is should be $4 ( $5 - $1 ), I used the given contribution margin for the calculation.
