Suppose a company is financed with $20 million of equity and $60 million of debt. That is, the company obtained $20 million from shareholders and $40 million from debtholders to finance its operations. Its capital structure is, therefore, 25% (=$20million/ ($20 million+$60 million) ) equity and 75% (=$60million/ ($20 million+$60 million) ) debt. Please provide the solutions to the following questions (a, b) in the box below.
If company issues $30 million new equity in order to retire some of its debt, what would be its new capital structure?
How do you think market would react on the announcement about the new equity issue? Why? Explain.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Existing Equity = 20 million

Existing debt = 60 million

Total capital = 20 million + 60 million = 80 million

a. Given company issued 30 million of equity to retire debt

Equity after raise = $20 million + $30 million = $50 million

Debt = $60 million - $30 million = $30 million

Total capital size remain at $80 million

Capital structure, Equity = $50 million/$80 million = 0.625 = 62.50%

Debt = (1-0.625) = 0.375 = 37.50%

b. The market would welcome the new issue as the risk of  the firm would be reduced.

d. The interest on taxes due and unpaid (assume a 4% interest rate) $________

Answers

Answer:

A. 15th August

B.  60.5

C.  6.05

D.  1.19

Explanation:

Let assume that during the lookback period, you reported a tax rate of $50000 or less. It implies that you're a monthly depositor(based on schedule) and all taxes much be deposited on or before the 15th day of the next month.

Inability to meet up with the timely deposit has penalty based on their tiers.

For 1 - 5 days late =   2% of upaod depsot

6 - 15 late = 5% on tax payment

15 days late = 10% on deposits

10 days late of IRS = 15% on deposit

Since no deposits were made till Aug 24, then deposit has been delayed by 9 days (i.e. Aug 15 - 24)

Thus, the penalty for making timely deposit = 1210 × 0.05 = 60.5

Inability to pay the penalty = 0.5 percent per month ( for unpaid taxes).

So, the penalty for failure of fully paid tax = 120 ×  0.5% = 6.05

Assuming a 4% interest rate; the interest on taxes due & unpaid is

= 1210 × 0.04 × 9/365

= 1.19

Therefore, the total penalty imposed = 60.5 + 6.05 + 1.19 = 67.74

Explanation:

are capital markets also organisational markets?​

Answers

Answer:A capital market is a financial market in which long-term debt (over a year) or equity-backed securities are bought and sold.[6] Capital markets channel the wealth of savers to those who can put it to long-term productive use, such as companies or governments making long-term investments.[a] Financial regulators like Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI), Bank of England (BoE) and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) oversee capital markets to protect investors against fraud, among other duties.

Modern capital markets are almost invariably hosted on computer-based electronic trading platforms; most can be accessed only by entities within the financial sector or the treasury departments of governments and corporations, but some can be accessed directly by the public. As an example, in the United States, any American citizen with an internet connection can create an account with TreasuryDirect and use it to buy bonds in the primary market, though sales to individuals form only a tiny fraction of the total volume of bonds sold. Various private companies provide browser-based platforms that allow individuals to buy shares and sometimes even bonds in the secondary markets. There are many thousands of such systems, most serving only small parts of the overall capital markets. Entities hosting the systems include stock exchanges, investment banks, and government departments. Physically, the systems are hosted all over the world, though they tend to be concentrated in financial centres like London, New York, and Hong Kong.

Tinsley carried the land at its original cost of $62,500. According to an independent appraisal, the land currently is worth $150,000. Tinsley paid $25,000 in cash to complete the transaction. Required: 1. What is the fair value of the new parcel of land received by Tinsley assuming the exchange has commercial substance

Answers

Answer:

$175,000

Explanation:

When an exchange transaction has commercial substance, the accounting standard IAS 16 requires that the cost price of the item acquired be at fair Value of the asset given up.

Fair Value of Asset given up is $150,000.

However Tinsley has also paid a trade -in allowance for the new parcel of land of $25,000.

Therefore, the fair value of the new parcel of land received by Tinsley assuming the exchange has commercial substance is $175,000 ($150,000 + $25,000)

Bob makes his first deposit into an IRA earning compounded annually on his th birthday and his last deposit on his birthday ( equal deposits in all). With no additional deposits, the money in the IRA continues to earn interest compounded annually until Bob retires on his th birthday. How much is in the IRA when Bob retires

Answers

Answer:

$187,881.52

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

The future value would be

= PMT × ((1 + rate of interest)^number of years -1) ÷ (rate of interest)

= $1,500 × ((1 + 0.066)^13 - 1) ÷ (0.066)

= $1,500 × 19.626

= $29,439.14

Now when bob retired, the amount is

= $29,439.14 × (1 + 0.066)^29

= $29,439.14 × 6.383

= $187,881.52

XYZ Corporation had 158 million shares outstanding on January 1, 2012. On February 2,2012, it issued an additional 30 million shares to the market at the market priceof $55 per share. What was the effect of this share issue on the price per share

Answers

Answer:

There was no effect of this share issue on the price per share

Explanation:

First, we need to determine the pre-issuance value

Numbers of outstanding shares = 158,000,000 shares

Total Value of equity = Numbers of outstanding shares x Market value per share = 158,000,000 shares  x $55 per share = $8,690,000,000

Now calculate the issuance values

Numbers of shares issued = 30,000,000 shares

Vaue of issued equity = NUmbers of shares issued x Mrket value per share = 30,000,000 x $55 per share = $1,650,000,000

Now determien the post issuance value

Numbers of outstanding shares = 158,000,000 shares + 30,000,000 shares = 188,000,000 shares

Total Value of equity = $8,690,000,000 + $1,650,000,000 = $10,340,000,000

Now calcuate the Value per share

Value per share = Post Issuance Total value of equity / Post issuance total numbers of shares = $10,340,000,000 / 188,000,000 shares = $55 per share

There is no effect of share issue on the price of the share.

Concerned by recent negative trends in economic indicators such as the consumer price index, gross domestic product, and inflation, the marketing manager of Kevin's Kayaks recommends that the company reduce its advertising spending. His recommendation is based on ________ data.

Answers

Answer:

Macroeconomics.

Explanation:

Economics can be classified into two (2) main categories, namely;

1. Microeconomics can be defined as the study of the effect of price and quantity levels through interactions between individual buyers and sellers in various markets. Simply stated, it focuses on analyzing or evaluating the decisions of consumers (buyers) and those of firms (sellers) such as methods of production, pricing; and the manner in which government policies affect those decisions.

2. Macroeconomics can be defined as the study of behaviors, performance and factors that affect the entire economy. Therefore, it focuses on aggregate phenomena such as price level, economic growth, Gross Domestic Product (GDP), inflation, unemployment and national income levels with respect to the central bank, demand or supply shocks, government policies, aggregate spending and savings.

In this scenario, concerned by recent negative trends in economic indicators such as the consumer price index, gross domestic product, and inflation, the marketing manager of Kevin's Kayaks recommends that the company reduce its advertising spending. Thus, his recommendation is based on macroeconomics data.

This ultimately implies that, macroeconomic is a form of externality that typically affects the levels of inflation, unemployment, consumer price index, or growth in the economy as a whole (GDP).

In the fall of 2014, China and the United States agreed to expand the Information Technology Agreement to drop tariffs on a number of technology products. This is an example of_________ reducing protectionist measures.

Answers

Answer:

Free trade policy.

Explanation:

Trade can be defined as a process which typically involves the buying and selling of goods and services between a producer and the customers (consumers) at a specific period of time.

In the fall of 2014, China and the United States agreed to expand the Information Technology Agreement to drop tariffs on a number of technology products. Therefore, this is an example of free trade policy reducing protectionist measures.

Free trade policy includes the adoption and implementation of tariffs and quotas between countries.

Trade policies tariffs and quotas will most likely benefit domestic producers of the protected good and harm domestic consumers of the protected good as they're made to pay for the consumption of imported products. Hence, under free trade there are more societal benefits due to the specialization of domestic goods.

Tariffs can reduce both the volume of exports and imports in a country.

In order to generate revenues, domestic government make use of tariffs while quotas do not generate any revenue for them.
