Answer:
Beta= 0.9845
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Stock A:
Investment= $65,000
Beta= 0.75
Stock B:
Investment= $35,000
Beta= 1.42
To calculate the beta of the portfolio, we need to use the following formula:
Beta= (proportion of investment A*beta A) + (proportion of investment B*beta B)
Beta= (0.65*0.75) + (0.35*1.42)
Beta= 0.9845
A five-year bond has a par value of 1000, a coupon of 3%, and a required yield of 5%. What should be the market price of this bond?
Answer:
The market price of the bond is $913.41
Explanation:
The coupon payment is annual, meaning it is being paid once a year.
N(Number of years/Number of periods) = 5
I/Y(Yield-To-Maturity) = 5 percent
PMT(coupon payment) = $30 [(3/100) x $1,000]
FV(Future value/Par value) =$1,000
PV(present value or market value) = ?
Now to solve this, lets use a financial calculator (e.g Texas BA II plus)
N= 5; I/Y = 5%; PMT = $30; FV = $1,000; CPT PV = -$913.41
Therefore, the market price of the bond is $913.41

For a pure competition firm if price is less than the minimum of the __________, output at 0 will result in less loss than producing at any other level.
Answer:
need more information
Explanation:
For a pure competition firm is charging a price less than the minimum average variable cost at zero output , will result in a loss than producing at any other level.
What is a pure competition firm?A theoretical market structure is referred to as pure competition. There are numerous buyers and sellers, and prices are determined by supply and demand. Companies make only enough money to stay in business. If they made too much money, other companies would enter the market and drive down profits.
If a profit-maximizing firm produces a positive output in the short run, then the market price must be greater than or equal to the Average variable cost (AVC) at that output level. Hence when price is less than minimum AVC, the firm produces zero output.
Therefore the market price is less than average variable cost for zero output for pure competition firm.

Answer:
1. Park Co. is considering an investment that requires immediate payment of $31,500 and provides expected cash inflows of $12,000 annually for four years. What is the investment's payback period?
payback period = $31,500 / $12,000 = 2.625 years
2. Park Co. is considering an investment that requires immediate payment of $21,530 and provides expected cash inflows of $6,500 annually for four years. If Park Co. requires a 7% return on its investments. What is the internal rate of return?
using a financial calculator, the IRR = 8%
the IRR is the discount rate that makes a project's NPV = 0
3. Peng Company is considering an investment expected to generate an average net income after taxes of $3,400 for three years. The investment costs $50,400 and has an estimated $10,200 salvage value. Assume Peng requires a 10% return on its investments. Compute the net present value of this investment. Assume the company uses straight-line depreciation.
depreciation per year = ($50,400 - $10,200) / 3 = $13,400
net cash flows:

Last year, Big W Company reported earnings per share of $2.70 when its stock was selling for $40.50. If its earnings this year increase by 10% and the P/E ratio remains constant, what will be the price of its stock?
Answer: $44.55
Explanation:
P/E ratio last year = Market price / Earnings per share
= 40.50/2.70
= 15
PE ratio remains constant.
Earnings increase by 10% = 2.70 * 1.10 = $2.97
15 = Market Price / 2.97
Market Price = 15 * 2.97
= $44.55

Proper Paints Company has a target capital structure of 35% debt and 65% common equity with no preferred stock. Its before tax cost of debt is 8% and its marginal tax rate is 25%. The current stock price is P0 = $22. The last dividend was D0 = $2.25 and it is expected to grow at a 5% constant rate. What is its cost of equity and it's WACC?
Answer:
cost of equity = 15.74 %
WACC = 12.33 %
Explanation:
The Weighted Average Cost of Equity (WACC) is the return that is required by providers of Long Term source of finance. WACC assumes the Pooling of Funds Principle when it comes to financing projects.
WACC = E/V × Ke + D/V × Kd
Where,
E/V = Market Weight of Equity
= 0.65
Ke = Cost of Equity
= D1 / P0 + g
= ($2.25 × 1.05)/ $22 + 0.05
= 15.74 %
D/V = Market Weight of Debt
= 0.35
Kd = Cost of Debt
= 8% × (1 - 0.25)
= 6 %
Therefore,
WACC = 0.65 × 15.74 % + 0.35 × 6 %
= 12.33 %

A stock just paid an annual dividend of $1.8. The dividend is expected to grow by 8% per year for the next 3 years. The growth rate of dividends will then fall steadily (linearly) from 8% after 3 years to 5% in year 6. The required rate of return is 12%.
1. What is the current stock price if the dividend growth rate will stay 0.05 (5%) forever after 6 years?
2. In 6 years, the P/E ratio is expected to be 23 and the payout ratio to be 80%. What is the current stock price when using the P/E ratio?
Answer:
1.
The current stock price is $28.71
2.
The current stock price is $149.15
Explanation:
1.
We need to calculate the present value of the dividends with each growth
First calculate the dividend each year
Year _________________________ Dividend
1 _____( $1.8 x ( 1 + 8% )^1__________ $1.9440
2_____( $1.8 x ( 1 + 8% )^2__________ $1.1664
3_____( $1.8 x ( 1 + 8% )^3__________ $2.2675
4_____( $2.2675 x ( 1 + 7% )________ $2.4262
5_____( $2.4262 x ( 1 + 6% )________ $2.5718
6_____( $2.5718 x ( 1 + 5% )_________ $2.7004
Calculate the present value of each years dividend
Year _________________________ present value
1 _____( $1.9440 / ( 1 + 12% )^1 __________ $2.1773
2_____$1.1664 / ( 1 + 12% )^2___________ $0.9298
3_____$2.2675 / ( 1 + 12% )^3___________$0.7118
4_____$2.4262 / ( 1 + 12% )^4___________$1.5419
5_____$2.5718 / ( 1 + 12% )^5___________ $1.4593
6_____$2.7004 / ( 12% - 5% ) / ( 1 + 12% )^5_$21.8897
Total _____________________________ $28.7098
Hence priec of the stock is $28.71
2.
First calculate dividend of Year 6
Dividend = EPS x Payout ratio = 23 x 80% = $18.40
Present value = $18.4 / ( 12% - 5% ) / ( 1 + 12% )^5 = $149.15

A company purchased an asset for $2,850,000 that will be used in a 3-year project. The asset is in the 3-year MACRS class. The depreciation percentage each year is 33.33%, 44.45%, and 14.81%, respectively. What is the book value of the equipment at the end of the project?
A) $211,185.B) $0.C) $633,270.D) $1,900,095.E) $2,638,815.
Answer:
A) $211,185
Explanation:
The computation of the book value of the equipment at the end of the project is as follows;
Depreciation in Year 1 is
= Asset Price × 33.33%
= $2,850,000 × 33.33%
= $949,905
Depreciation in Year 2 is
= Asset Price × 44.45%
= $2,850,000 × 44.45%
= $1,266,825
And, Depreciation in Year 3 is
= Asset Price × 14.81%
= $2,850,000 × 14.81%
= $422,085
Now
Total Accumulated Depreciation is
= $949,905 + $1,266,825 + $422,085
= $2,638,815
And, finally
Book Value of the equipment is
= $2,850,000 - $2,638,815
= $211,185
Therefore the correct option is a.
