Answer:

$321,600

Explanation:

debt equity ratio = debt / equity

since the debt to equity is 0.8, that means that for every $ invested from equity, $0.80 will be borrowed. If the new project requires an initial cash outlay of $300,000:

  • then $300,000 / $1.80 = $166,667 will be new equity
  • and $133,333 will be new debt

total cost of initial outlay including flotation costs = ($166,667 x 1.09) + ($133,333 x 1.0495) = $181,667 +  $139,933 = $321,600

flotation costs include all the costs associated with issuing new stocks or taking new debt.

Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

A. $20,000

B. $17,234.18

C.Option (b)

Explanation:

Obviously, the option with lower Present Value would be the best option to buy the car. The Present Value of the options can find out as following

REQUIREMENT A

Price of car = $24,600  

Rebate = $4,600

Present value of the payments for option  = Price of the car – rebate  

Present value of the payments for option (a) = $24,600 - $4,600

Present value of the payments for option = $20,000

REQUIREMENT B

We can use the following Present Value of an Annuity formula to calculate the present value of the payments

PV of the payments for option  = PMT * [1-(1+i) ^-n)]/i

PV of the payments for option (b) (PV) =?

Monthly payment PMT =$410 per month

Number of payments n = 5 years *12 months = 60

Monthly interest rate i=1.25% per month or 0.0125

PV of the payments for option  = $410 x [1- (1+0.0125) ^-60]/0.0125

PV of the payments for option  = $17,234.18

REQUIREMENT C.

Which is the better deal?

Option (b) is better deal as the present value of payments ($17,234.18) is less than Present value of the payments for option (a); $20,000.
