Assume that a company is financed 75% with equity and 25% with debt. A decrease in the corporate tax rate of the firm will cause its weighted average cost of capital (WACC) to:_____.
1. Rise.
2. Fall.
3. Stay constant
4. More information is needed

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:1. Rise.

Explanation:

The weighted average cost of capital (WACC) is an evaluation of a firm's cost of capital in which every category of capital is proportionately weighted.

Weighted average cost of capital is computed as:

WACC =( Weightage of Equity x Cost of Equity )+  Weightage of Debt x Cost of Debt x(1- Tax Rate )

A decrease in the corporate tax rate of the firm will cause its weighted average cost of capital (WACC) to rise due to an increase in the cost of debt.

hence, the correct option is 1. Rise.

Answer 2

hi! the answer is 1. rise :))

A firm is considering taking a project that will produce $13 million of revenue per year. Cash expenses will be $4 million, and depreciation expenses will be $1 million per year. If the firm takes that project, then it will reduce the cash revenues of an existing project by $2 million. What is the free cash flow on the project, per year, if the firm is in the 30 percent marginal tax rate

Answers

Answer:

$5.2 million

Explanation:

The computation of the free cash flow is shown below:

We know that

Free cash flow = EBIT × (1 -Tax Rate) + Depreciation & Amortization

 Here

EBIT = Revenues - decreased amount of cash revenues - cash expenses - depreciation

= $13 million - $2 million - $4 million - $1 million

= $6 million

Now the free cash flow is

= $6 million × ( 1 - 30%) + $1 million

= $4.2 million + $1 million

= $5.2 million

What is the value of the stock today?

Answers

Answer:

$52.75

Explanation:

the discount rate for this question was not provided. the discount rate used is 10%

Value of the stock in year 1 and 2 = 0

value of the stock in year 3 = $1.25

value of the stock in year 4 = ($1.25 x 1.22) / 1.10^4 = $1.04

value of the stock in year 5 = ($1.25 x 1.22^2) / 1.10^5 = $1.16

value of the stock in perpetuality = ($1.25 x 1.22^2 x 1.06) / (0.1 - 0.06) = $49.30

Value of the stock today = $49.30 + $1.16 +  $1.04 + $1.25 = $52.75

A company reported total stockholders' equity of $163,000 on its balance sheet dated December 31, 2018. During the year ended December 31, 2019, the company reported net income of $21,700, declared and paid a cash dividend of $5700, declared and distributed a 10% stock dividend with a $6700 total market value, and issued additional common stock for $33,000. What is total stockholders' equity as of December 31, 2019

Answers

Answer:

$212,000

Explanation:

Stockholders' equity  = December 31, 2018 stockholders'equity + 2019 net income - 2019 cash dividend declarations + 2019 common stock issue

Stockholders' equity = $163,000 + $21,700 - $5,700 + $33,000

Stockholders' equity = $212,000

So, the total stockholders' equity as of December 31, 2019 is $212,000

A car dealership was trying to sell a used car that no one wanted. First, they tried to sell it for 10% off the marked price. Then they tried to sell it for 20% off the first sale price. Finally, they offered it for 25% off the second sale price, and someone bought it for $3,240. What was the original sale price?

Answers

Answer:

Original Sale Price = $6000

Explanation:

Lets say that the original Sale price is 100%. When the first discount is offered, the car is discounted by 10% and offered for 90% of the original price.

The second discount is offered as 20% off from the discounted sale price. Thus the car is now offered at,

Price after Second Discount = 90% * (1 - 20%)  =  72% of the original price

Now the final discount is offered as further 25% off from the Second Discounted price which is already 72% of the original price. Thus the price after final discount will be,

Price after final discount = 72% * (1 - 25%)  =  54% of the original price

We know the price after final discount is 54% of the original price and we are provided the amount as 3240. Thus if 54% of original price is 3240, then the original price will be,

Original Sale Price = 3240 * 100%/54%

Original Sale Price = $6000

There are two primary means to earn income as a stockholder. The first method is dividend income and the second method is earnings from capital gains. With respect to the investor seeking dividend income, when the investor buys a stock from a corporation with a primary focus to earn dividend income they will typically expect a higher dividend on common stock versus preferred stock. Discuss the dividend payment requirements of a common stock versus preferred stock, in terms of which type of stock has a primary claim on dividend distributions. Explain why the common stock investor demands a higher dividend rate.

Answers

Answer:

1. Dividend Payment Requirements:

a. Common stock dividend rates are not fixed, unlike the preferred stock dividends. They are not cumulative like cumulative preferred stock. They are only paid when the directors declare them.

b. Preferred stockholders usually have a fixed rate of dividend. They have preference over common stockholders in dividend payments. Some preferred stockholders enjoy cumulative dividends, unlike common stockholders.

2. Common stockholders expect higher dividends than the preferred stockholders because they bear the residual business risks associated with the company.

Explanation:

Dividend income results when management declares it to be paid to the stockholders.  They are usually paid out of earned income.  The discretion to declare dividends lies solely with management.  On the other hand, stockholders can decide to take advantage of the movements in stock prices at the stock exchange by earning capital gains through selling their shares.  This income is not at the discretion of management insofar as the entity is being run profitably.

Between a preferred stock and a common stock, a preferred stock has a primary claim on dividend distributions.

Common stock investors demand a higher dividend rate because their dividend income is variable when compared to with preferred stocks.

What are common stocks and preferred stocks?

Common stocks are stocks that gives its holders ownership rights in the company. Common stock holders are paid dividends when declared.

Preferred stock are hybrid financial instrument. They are a cross between bonds and stocks. Preferred stock holders received fixed dividend payment.

Midwest Corporation has provided the following data concerning manufacturing overhead for 2020: Two jobs were worked on during the year: Job A-101 and Job A-102. The number of direct labor-hours spent on Job A-101 and Job A-102 were 1,360 and 4,200, respectively. The actual manufacturing overhead was $72,200. What is the predetermined manufacturing overhead rate per direct labor hour for the year

Answers

Answer:

$16.00

Explanation:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate = Budgeted Overheads ÷ Budgeted Activity

therefore,

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate = $32,320 ÷ 2,020

                                                                            = $16.00

Applied overheads = Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate x Actual activity

therefore,

Applied overheads = $16.00 x 2,410 = $38,560

Conclusion :

Under-applied overheads = $72,200 -  $38,560

                                           = $33,640

the predetermined manufacturing overhead rate per direct labor hour for the year is  $16.00

Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follows,

Decrease in unexpired insurance = $400

Decrease in interest payable = $250

So, we can calculate the net income to reconcile by using following formula,

Net income = Decrease in unexpired insurance - Decrease in interest payable

= $400 - $250

= $150 ( Positive means increase)

So, net income should be increased by $150.

Suppose that an investor with a 10-year investment horizon is considering purchasing a 20-year 8% coupon bond selling for $900. The par value of the bond is $1000. The original YTM on the bond is 10%, but the investor expects that he can reinvest the coupon payments at an annual interest rate of 7% and that at the end of the investment horizon this 10-year bond will be selling to offer a yield of 9%. What is the total return for this bond

Answers

Answer:

8.67%

Explanation:

PMT (Semi-annual coupon) = par value*coupon rate/2 = 1,000*8%/2 = 40

N (No of coupons paid) = 10*2 = 20

Rate (Semi-annual reinvestment rate) = 7%/2 = 3.5%

Future value of reinvested coupons = FV(PMT, N, Rate)

Future value of reinvested coupons = FV(40, 20, 3.5%)

Future value of reinvested coupons = $1,131.19

FV = 1,000

PMT (Semi-annual coupons) = 40

N (No of coupons pending) = 10*2 = 20

Rate (Semi-annual YTM) = 9%/2 = 4.5%

Price of the bond after 10 years = PV(FV, PMT, N, RATE)

Price of the bond after 10 years = PV(1000, 40, 20, 4.5%)

Price of the bond after 10 years = $934.96

Total amount after 10 years = Future value of reinvested coupons + Price of the bond after 10 years

Total amount after 10 years = $1,131.19 + $934.96

Total amount after 10 years = $2,066.15

Amount invested (Price of the bond now) = $900.

Total Annual Return = [(Total amount after 10 years / Amount invested)^(1/holding period)] -1

Total Annual Return = [($2,066.15/$900)^(1/10)] -1

Total Annual Return = [2.295722^0.1] - 1

Total Annual Return = 1.08665561792 - 1

Calculate the stock's expected return, standard deviation, coefficient of variation, and Sharpe ratio. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to two decimal places. Stock's expected return: % Standard deviation: % Coefficient of variation: Sharpe ratio:

Answers

Answer:

Stock's expected return = 12.90%

Standard Deviation = 29.68%

Coefficient of variation = 2.30

Sharpe ratio = 0.30

Explanation:

Note: See the attached excel file for the calculations of the Stock's expected return and Variance.

Given:

Risk-free rate = 4%.

From the attached excel file, we have:

Stock's expected return = Total of Stock's Expected Return = 0.1290, or 12.90%

Variance = Total of F = 0.0880890, or 8.8089%

Standard Deviation = Variance^0.5 = 0.0880890^0.5 = 0.2968, or 29.68%

Coefficient of variation = Standard Deviation / Stock's expected return = 29.68% / 12.90% = 2.30

Sharpe ratio = (Stock's expected return - Risk-free rate) / Standard Deviation = (12.90% - 4%) / 29.68% = 0.30

Answer:

c. $1.69 and $1.65

Explanation:

Calculation to determine Basic EPS

Using this formula

Basic EPS =Net income/Weighted average common shares outstanding
