The stock price is mathematically given as

P=$57.64

<h3>What is the stock price?</h3>

Generally, the equation for is Value after year mathematically given as

$V=\frac{(FCF for year 5*Growth rate)}{(WACC-Growth rate)}\\\\V = \frac{(55.4*1.05)}{(0.09-0.05)}$

V= $1454.25

Hence, the current value is mathematically given as

I=Discounting factor equal to the future cash flows multiplied by their present value

$I=\frac{-22.76}{1.09} + \frac{38.8}{1.09^2}+ \frac{43.4}{1.09^3}+\frac{52.3}{1.09^4}+\frac{55.4}{1.09^5}+\frac{1454.25}{1.09^5}$

I=$1063.508769

current value for ordinary stock

I'=$1037.508769million

In conclusion, the stock price is

P=(1037.508769/18)

P=$57.64

Credit Bonds Payable $640,000

To record the issuance of the bonds at a discount.

2. Total bond interest expense to be recognized over the bonds' life:

= $287,160

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

January 1, 2019

Face value of bonds issued = $640,000

Price of bonds = $570,443

Bonds discount = $69,557 ($640,000 - $570,443)

Coupon interest rate = 8.5%

Market interest rate = 12%

Maturity period = 4 years

Interest payment = semiannual on June 30 and December 31

With straight-line amortization of bonds discount, the semiannual amortization will be = $8,695

Semi-annual interest payment = $27,200 ($640,000 * 4.25%)

Semi-annual interest expense = $35,895 ($27,200 + $8,695)

Annual interest expense = $71,790

1. Transaction Analysis

January 1:

Cash $570,443 Bonds Discount $69,557 Bonds Payable $640,000

2. Total bond interest expense to be recognized over the bonds' life:

You want to invest $50,000 in a portfolio with a beta of no more than 1.4 and an expected return of 12.4%. Bay Corp. has a beta

IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

Assume the weight to be invested in Bay Corp is x. That means (1 - x) will be the weight for City Inc. The expression for the expected return will be;

(x * 11.2%) + ( (1 - x) * 14.8%) = 12.4%

0.112x + 0.148 - 0.148x = 0.124

-0.036x = -0.024

x = 0.67

Portfolio beta is;

= 0.67 * 1.2 + ( 1 - 0.67) * 1.8

= 1.398 so beta condition is satisfied.

Amount in Bay Corp.;

= 0.67 * 50,000

= $33,500

Amount in City Inc.;

= 50,000 - 33,500

= $16,500

Answer:

Cost of equity will be 12.96 %

Explanation:

We have given current price of the stock = $32.45

Expected dividend $D_1=$2.35$ in one year

Growth rate $g=5.72%=0.0572$

We have to find the cost of equity

Cost of equity is given by

Cost of equity $=\frac{expected\ dividend}{current\ price\ of\ the \ stock}+growth\ rate=\frac{2.35}{32.45}+0.0572=0.1296$ = 12.96 %
