erastova [34]

Answer:

a.

WACC = 0.07961 or 7.961% rounded off to 7.96%

b.

After tax cost of debt = 0.0474 or 4.74%

Explanation:

a.

The weighted average cost of capital or WACC is the cost of a firm's capital structure. To calculate the WACC, we multiply the weight of each component of the capital structure by the cost of that component. The components of capital structure can be one or all of the following namely debt, preferred stock and common stock.

The formula for WACC is,

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

Where,

w represents the weight of each component

r represents the cost of each component

D, P and E represents debt, preferred stock and common stock respectively

WACC = 0.15 * 0.06 * (1 - 0.21) + 0.1 * 0.05 + 0.75 * 0.09

WACC = 0.07961 or 7.961% rounded off to 7.96%

b.

The after tax cost of debt is calculated by multiplying the cost of debt by (1 - tax rate) to adjust for the tax advantage provided by debt as interest payments on debt are tax deductible.

After tax cost of debt = 0.06 * (1 - 0.21)

After tax cost of debt = 0.0474 or 4.74%

Assume you have two projects with different lives. Project A is expected to generate present value cash flows of $5.2 million an

Alex787 [66]

Answer:

$1,033,190.69 ; better

Explanation:

Given:

Present value of cash flow of Project A (PV) = $5,200,000

Maturity (nper) = 7 years

Required return (rate) = 9%

Annual annuity (pmt) can be computed using spreadsheet function =pmt(rate,nper,PV,FV). Substituting the values, we get,

=pmt(0.09, 7, -5200000)

=$1,033,190.69

FV is 0. Present value is negative as it's cash outflow.

Annual annuity of Project A is $1,033,190.69

Project B:

Given:

Present value of cash flow of Project A (PV) = $3,800,000

Maturity (nper) = 5 years

Required return (rate) = 9%

Annual annuity (pmt) can be computed using spreadsheet function =pmt(rate,nper,PV,FV). Substituting the values, we get,

=pmt(0.09, 5, -3800000)

=$976,951.34

FV is 0. Present value is negative as it's cash outflow.

Annual annuity of Project B is $976,951.34

Annual annuity of Project is more than that of Project B, So Project A is better than Project B.

zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

By definition, open-market operations change the monetary base.

In this exercise, the Fed engages in open-market purchases, which means that the Fed expands the amount of money in the banking system. Therefore the monetary base will increase by an amount equal to the amount of open-market purchases.

So monetary base will increase by $3 billion.
