Answer:
a. If the interest rate was 8%, how much would you have been prepared to bid for the prize?
this is an ordinary annuity:
annual payment = $9,420,713 / 20 = $471,035.65
number of periods = 19 periods
interest rate = 8%
therefore, the present value annuity factor = 9.6036
the present value of the annuity = $471,035.65 x 9.6036 = $4,523,637.97 ≈ $4,523,638
b. Enhance Reinsurance Company was reported to have offered S4.2 million. Use Excel to find the return that the company was looking for.
using the IRR function in Excel, the return that Enhance was looking for was 9.05%
Answer: $8.81
Explanation:
To solve this, add the present values of the dividends from years 3, 4 and 5 and then add the present value of the terminal value of the stock at year 5.
Year 3 dividend = $0.50
Year 4 dividend = 0.50 * (1 + 49%) = $0.745
Year 5 dividend = 0.745 * 1.49 = $1.11005
= Dividend in year 3 / (1 + required rate of return)³ + Dividend in year 4 / (1 + required rate of return)⁴ + Dividend in year 5 / (1 + required rate of return)⁵ + (Dividend in year 5 * (1 + growth rate) / ( required rate of return - growth rate ) ) / (1 + required rate of return)⁵
= 0.5 / 1.16³ + 0.745/1.16⁴ + 1.11005/1.16⁵ + ( 1.11005 / (16% - 9%)) / 1.16⁵
= $8.81
Answer:
Perfect Tender Rule
A. True
Explanation:
The Uniform Commercial Code's Article 2 recognizes the legal right of a buyer of goods to demand precise conformity of the goods to the product description in quality, quantity, and delivery manner. Therefore, the buyer may reject goods offered by the seller which do not conform to the earlier product descriptions. This rule is called the Perfect Tender Rule. An exception to this rule will be if the seller has a reason to believe that non-conforming goods will be acceptable to the buyer.
Answer:
10.02%
Explanation:
The computation of the WACC is shown below. The formula of WACC is shown below:
= (Weightage of debt × cost of debt) + (Weightage of preferred stock) × (cost of preferred stock) + (Weightage of common stock) × (cost of common stock)
= 27% × 7.6% × (1 - 0.40) + 9% × 5.9% + 64% × 12.9%
= 2.052% × (1 - 0.40) + 0.531% + 8.256%
= 10.02%
