Complete question:
Today is January 1, 2009. The state of Iowa has offered your firm a subsidized loan. It will be in the amount of $10,000,000 at an interest rate of 5 percent and have ANNUAL (amortizing) payments over 3 years. The first payment is due today and your taxes are due January 1 of each year on the previous year's income. The yield to maturity on your firm's existing debt is 8 percent. What is the APV of this subsidized loan? If you rounded in your intermediate steps, the answer may be slightly different from what you got. Choose the closest.
A. -$3,497,224.43 B. $417,201.05 C.$840,797 D. None of the above
Answer:
$840,797 is the APV of this subsidized loan
Solution:
Input the loan in a financial equation first and resolve the payment:
PV=10,000,000
N= 3I = 5%
PMT = 3,672,085
Now, find the APV of the loan:
CF0 = $10,000,000
CF1= -$3,502,085
= -$3,172,085 - .66 * $500,000CF2
= -$3,556,011CF3
= -$3,612,632I
= 8%
APV = $840,797
Answer:
D) Stock prices of companies that announce increased earning in January tend to outperform the market in February.
Explanation:
The above is consistent with the Efficient Market Hypothesis. All others are a direct contravention.
<em>The efficient market hypothesis (EMH), also known as the efficient market theory, is a hypothesis that states that the prices of shares contain all information and that consistent alpha generation is impossible.</em>
According to the hypothesis, stocks always trade at their fair value on exchanges, making it impossible for investors to purchase undervalued stocks or sell stocks for inflated prices.
This means that it should not be possible to outperform the overall market through professional stock selection or market timing.
The only way according to EMH that an investor can obtain better returns is by purchasing riskier investments.
By implication, this also means that it is not possible to "beat the market" consistently on a risk-adjusted basis since market prices should only react to new information.
You would note that in the option D, earning (which is a key driver for demand of stock) is announced in one month. The natural reaction would be for the demand for that stock to surge in the next month.
Answer:
Bond Price = $616.6938765 rounded off to $616.69
Explanation:
To calculate the quote/price of the bond today, we will use the formula for the price of the bond. Assuming the bond is a semi annual bond, the semi coupon payment, number of periods and semi annual YTM will be,
Coupon Payment (C) = 1000 * 0.032 * 6/12 = $16
Total periods (n) = 16 * 2 = 32
r or YTM = 0.073 * 6/12 = 0.0365 or 3.65%
The formula to calculate the price of the bonds today is attached.
Bond Price = 16 * [( 1 - (1+0.0365)^-32) / 0.0365] + 1000 / (1+0.0365)^32
Bond Price = $616.6938765 rounded off to $616.69
Answer:
- How many shares of common stock are outstanding?
C. 3,000
