7 0

Answer:

See explaination

Explanation:

cost of debt, after-tax = (4.3% + 1.2%)*(1 - 26%) = 4.07%

cost of equity = 4.3% + 1.3*4% = 9.5%

market capitalization = 286130000 * 182 = 52075660000

total value of equity outstanding = market capitalization = 52075660000

Debt portion = 11532000000 / (11532000000 + 52075660000) = 0.18

Equity portion = 1 - 0.18 = 0.82

weighted average cost of capital = 0.18*4.07% + 0.82*9.5% = 8.52%

sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

Manson Industries

The total cost savings that Manson will realize by buying the assembly part instead of making it is:

($14,700), showing that more costs will be incurred.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

                                   Make       Buy

Variable cost per unit   $5            $6

Fixed cost per unit          2              2

Total cost per unit        $7            $8

Total units required 14,700       14,700

Total costs           $102,900   $117,600

Cost saving = ($14,700)

b) Based on the above calculations, it benefits Manson more to produce the part internally than to buy from an outside supplier.  There is a cost difference of $1 because the fixed costs will still be incurred whatever decision is taken.

Suppose the September Eurodollar futures contract has a price of 96.4. You plan to borrow $50m for 3 months in September at LIBO
bija089 [108]

Answer:

Explanation:

Definition of simple terminologies ;

  • A contractual agreement is an agreement which is made on future exchanges in order to buy or sell goods at a fixed price at a specified time period.
  • LIBOR stands for London interbank offered rate which is the rate at which  banks borrow money from other banks in london market. this rate is a fixed term by the british bankers association.

a) The implied LIBOR of the September Eurodollar futures of 96.4 is =  100 96.4 /400-=0.9%

(b) As we want to borrow money, it implies buying protection against high interest rates, which means low Eurodollar future prices. We will short the Eurodollar contract.

c) Number of contact to be entered into = One Eurodollar contract which is based on a $1 million 3-month deposit. As such, entering into hedge a loan of $50M, will automatically implies entering into 50 short contracts.

d) A true 3-month LIBOR of 1% means an annualized position (annualized by market conventions) of 1% x 4 = 4%. Therefore, our 50 short contracts will pay: [96.4 − (100 − 4) × 100 × $25] × 50 = $50,000.

The increased interest rate has  made the loan more expensive as such, the loss to exposure  will be compensated hence we have to pay the following amount ; ($50,000,000 x 0.01) - $50,000

= $450,000
