Answer:
Using the current capital structure
Ke = Rf + β(Risk premium)
Ke = 5 + 1.60(6)
Ke = 5 + 9.60
Ke = 14.60
Weighted cost of equity
= 14.60(20/100)
= 2.92%
Using the new debt-equity ratio
Ke = 5 + 1.60(6)
Ke = 5 + 9.6
Ke = 14.60%
Weighted cost of equity
Ke = 14.60(60/100)
Ke = 8.76%
Difference in cost of equity
= 2.92% - 8.76%
= -5.8%
Explanation:
There is need to calculate the cost of equity based on capital asset pricing model where Rf represents risk-free rate, Rp denotes risk-premium and β refers to beta. Then, we will calculate the weighted cost of equity by multiplying cost of equity by the proportion of equity in the capital structure. We will also calculate the new weighted cost of equity by multiplying the cost of equity the new proportion of equity in the capital structure. Finally, we will deduct the new weighted cost of equity from the old weighted cost of equity.
Answer:
Longard Corp.
The money that Longard Corp. receives is:
= $75 million.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Number of shares issued = 5 million
Investment bank underwriter pays per share to Longard Corp = $15
Stock price to the public = $20 per share
Total amount received from the underwriter = $75 million ($15 * 5 million)
b) The calculations show that the investment bank will eventually receive $100 million ($20 * 5 million) from the public offer. It then charges $5 per share (representing a total underwriting fee of $25 million). This is why it remits only $75 million to Longard Corp.
Answer:
$81000
Explanation:
The calculation is simple. Bond interest is simply calculated by multiplying bond value with the assorted interest rate.
For example
A bond with $1000 value with 5% interest is simply 5% of $1000 = $50
Therefore,
$3,000,000 * 2.7% = $81000
(2.7 % = 0.027)
Hope that helps.
