You want to save $98,000 to buy an boat by making an equal, end of year payment into a brokerage account for the next 9 years. If you expect to earn an annual interest rate of 7.75% on your account, how much do you need to deposit each year into your account?

Answers

Answer:

Annual deposit= $7,930.11

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

FV= $98,000

n= 9 years

i= 0.0775

To calculate the annual deposit, we need to use the following formula:

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= annual deposit

Isolating A:

A= (FV*i)/{[(1+i)^n]-1}

A= (98,000*0.0775) / [(1.0775^9) - 1]

A= $7,930.11

Answer: $7,930

Explanation:

The payments are to be equal so this is an annuity. The expected value is to be $98,000 in 9 years so this is a future value of an Annuity.

The formula is;

FV = [tex]P * \frac{[1 + i]^n-1}{i}[/tex]

98,000 = [tex]P * \frac{[1 + 0.075]^9-1}{0.075}[/tex]

98,000 = P * 12.3581

P = 98,000/12.3581

P = $7,930

Hankins, Inc., is considering a project that will result in initial aftertax cash savings of $5.3 million at the end of the first year, and these savings will grow at a rate of 3 percent per year indefinitely. The firm has a target debt-equity ratio of .52, a cost of equity of 13.2 percent, and an aftertax cost of debt of 6.6 percent. The cost-saving proposal is somewhat riskier than the usual project the firm undertakes; management uses the subjective approach and applies an adjustment factor of 1 percent to the cost of capital for such risky projects.Required:a. Calculate the WACC.b. What is the maximum cost the company would be willing to pay for this project?

Answers

Answer:

a.

WACC - Company = 10.94%

WACC - Project = 11.94%

b.

The maximum that the company will be willing to pay for this project is $61.0626 million

Explanation:

a.

To calculate the maximum cost that the company will be willing to pay today, we first need to find out the company and project WACC.

The WACC or weighted average cost of capital is the cost of a company's capital structure. It is calculated as follows,

WACC = wD * rD * (1 - tax rate)  +  wP * rP  +  wE * rE

Where,

d, p and e represents debt, preferred stock and common equityw represents the weight of each componentr represents the cost of each component

Weightage of  debt and equity

Total assets = debt + equity

Total assets = 0.52 + 1  = 1.52

wD = 0.52/1.52

wE = 1/1.52

WACC - Company = 0.52/1.52 * 0.066  +  1/1.52 * 0.132

WACC - Company = 0.1094 or 10.94%

WACC of project is 1% more than WACC of company. So WACC of project is 10.94% + 1%  =  11.94%

b.

The maximum that must be paid for this project can be calculated by calculating the present value of the cash flows provided in form of saving by this project.

Using the constant growth model of cash flow approach,

Present value = 5.3 * (1+0.03) / (0.1194 - 0.03)

Present value = $61.0626 million

A bond pays a semiannual coupon, and the last coupon was paid 61 days ago. If the annual coupon payment is $75, what is the accrued interest

Answers

Answer:

$12.57

Explanation:

Calculation for the accrued interest

Using this formula

Accrued interest =(Annual coupon payment/2) * (The numbers of days the last coupon was paid/182)

Note that Semiannual means the that annual coupon payment happened twice in a year which is from January to June and from July to December and Secondly let assumed that we have $182 days in the 6 months period.

Let plug in the formula

Accrued interest=(75/2) × (61/182)

Accrued interest=37.5*0.33516

Accrued interest=$12.57

Therefore the Accrued interest will be $12.57

The problem with average-cost pricing regulation is that once it is in place, there is a tendency for the:________


a. ATC curve to shift upward.

b. MR curve to shift leftward.

c. D curve to shift leftward.

d. ATC curve to shift downward.

e. D curve to shift rightward.

Answers

Answer:

a.  ATC curve to shift upward

Explanation:

Average cost pricing is a form of pricing that appears as one of the ways in which the government operates a monopoly market. The government, however, may utilize average cost pricing as a tool to oversee prices monopolists may charge.

In other words, this implies that Monopolists always incline to produce less than the optimal amount boosting the prices up.

Hence, the problem with average-cost pricing regulation is that once it is in place, there is a tendency for the: "Average Total Cost curve to shift upward." This can be a result of an increase in output and reduction price

Craig's Car Wash Inc. is considering a project that has the following cash flow and WACC data. What is the project's discounted payback?
WACC: 10.00%
Year : Cash flows
0 : -$900
1 : $500
2 : $500
3 : $500

Answers

Answer:

Discounted payback period= 2 years 1 month

Explanation:

The discounted payback period is the estimated length of time in years it takes  the present value of net cash inflow from a project to equate the net cash the initial cost  

To work out the discounted payback period, we will compute present value of the cash inflow and then determine how long it will take for the sum to be equal to the initial cost. This is done as follows:

Year          Cash flow    DF             Present value                

0              900    ×          1        =     900                

1               500     ×      1.1^(-1)   =     454.55

2             500     ×      1.1^(-2)    =    413.22

2             500     ×      1.1^(-3)   =      375.66

Total PV for 2 years = 454.55  +  413.22 = 867.77

Balance of cash flow remaining to equal 900 = 900 -867.77  = 32.23

Discounted payback period = 32.23 /375.66 × 12 months

                                               = 2 years 1 month

Discounted payback period= 2 years 1 month

Bailey and Sons has a levered beta of 1.10, its capital structure consists of 40% debt and 60% equity, and its tax rate is 40%. What would Bailey's beta be if it used no debt, i.e., what is its unlevered beta? a. 0.79 b. 0.67 c. 0.71 d. 0.64 e. 0.75

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 project has an initial cost of $60,000, expected net cash inflows of $14,000 per year for 7 years, and a cost of capital of 13%. What is the project's discounted payback period

Answers

Answer:

Discounted payback period = 6.68 years

Explanation:

Year Cash inflow$   Discounted cash     Cumulative discounted

                                          inflow$                      cash inflow$

1          14,000                    12,389                            12,389

2         14,000                    10,964                             23,353

3         14,000                     9,703                              33,056  

4         14,000                     8,586                              41,643    

5         14,000                     7,599                              49,241    

6         14,000                      6,724                             55,966    

7         14,000                      5,951                              61,917

Discounted cash inflow is calculated by discounting cash inflow at 13%. For example, discounted cash-flow in year 1 = 14,000 / (1+13%)^1 = 12,389.

Similarly, discounted cash-flow in year 2 = 14,000 / (1+13%)^2 = 10,964. And so on.

Cumulative cash-flows are sum of all cashflows till that year. For example, year 2 cumulative cashflow = 12,389 + 10,964 = 23,353.

Similarly, year 3 cumulative cash-flow = 23,353 + 9,703 = 33,056.

This cumulative cash-flow crosses 60,000 in year 7, so discounted payback period = 6 + (60,000-55,966) / 5,951

Discounted payback period = 6.68 years
