Answer:

$9,250

Explanation:

Calculation for the net differential income from the lease alternative

Lease amount=$45,000

Estimated expenses=$12,000

Net sale of equipment=Sale of equipment through broker $25,000 less 5% commission

Using this formula

Net differential income = Lease amount - estimated expenses - Net sale of equipment

Let plug in the formula

Net differential income= $45,000-$12,000-($25,000-($25,000*5%)

Net differential income=$45,000-$12,000-($25,000-$1,250)

Net differential income=$45,000-$12,000-$23,750

Net differential income=$45,000-$35,750

Net differential income=$9,250

Therefore net differential income from the lease alternative is $9,250

Answer:

$4,000

Explanation:

Regulation T initial margin to short stock is 50% of $2,000 = $1,500 . However, since this is a new account, it must meet the minimum initial margin of $2,000 required to open the account, hence $2,000 must be deposited.

= 2,000 + 2,000 ( 100 × $20)

= $4,000

Answer:

25%

Explanation:

For the computation of budgeted markup percentage using a full-cost approach first we need to find out the profit expected and total cost which is shown below:-

Profit Expected = $1,500,000 × 20%

= $300,000

Total cost = Variable cost + Fixed cost

= $1,100,000 + $100,000

= $12,00,000

Budgeted Markup Percentage = Profit ÷ Total Cost

= $300,000 ÷ $12,00,000

Answer:

2,010,252 Shares

Explanation:

The funds that are to be raised = $53,000,000

Spread = 7.5%

Share price = $29.00

Flotation cost with issue = 925,000

We have that:

(53000000+925000)/92.5 * 100

(539,250,000/92.5)x100

= $58297.973 x 100

= $58297297.3

The offer per share is placed at $29.00

So to get the number of shares sold:

$58297297.3 / $29.00

= 2,010,252 shares are to be sold.

Answer:

Cost of Equity =11.56%

Explanation:

The cost of equity can be determined using any of the following methods:

The Dividend Valuation Model(DVM) is a technique used to value the worth of an asset.

According to this model, the value of an asset is the sum of the present values of the future cash flows would that arise from the asset discounted at the required rate of return.  

Price = D/Kp

D- Dividend payable

Kp- cost of preferred stock

The capital asset pricing model (CAPM): relates the price of a share to the market risk or systematic risk. The systematic risk is that which affects all the all the economic agents, e.g inflation, interest rate e.t.c  

This CAPM is considered superior to DVM because it incorporates risk. Hence, we will use the CAPM  

Using the CAPM , the expected return on a asset is given as follows:  

E(r)= Rf +β(Rm-Rf)  

E(r) =? , Rf- 2.90%, Rm-Rf- 7.10% β- 1.22

E(r) = 2.90% + 1.22×(7.10)% = 11.562  %

Cost of Equity =11.56%

Answer:

Holding period return =14.85 %

Explanation:

The return on stock is the sum of the dividends earned and capital gains made during the holding period of the investment.

Dividend is the proportion of the profit made by a company which is paid to shareholders.  

Capital gains is another type of the return made on an equity investment as a result of increase in the value of the shares. It is difference between the cost of the share and the value at the time of disposal.

Therefore, we can can compute the return on the investment as follows:

Holding period return = (Dividend + capital gain)/Begin Price of stock × 100  

Dividend = $1.82

Capital gains= 136 - 120 = 16

Total dollar return on Investment = 1.82 + 16= $ 17.82

                                      = 17.82/120 × 100 = 14.85 %

Holding period return =14.85 %
