a) Briefly describe the differences among international bond, bank and equity markets.

b) Would you support an MNC that favors financing through bonds issues or would you rather support one that favors financing through stock issues?

Solution:

All three terms are related to raising funds, lending or borrowing to raise the capital for some government or for any company.

Let's start with International Bonds first.

International Bonds : In this globalized world, a company can raise its capital through getting debt in the form of international bonds from international institutions over the assets value of the company. For example: XYZ company has a asset value of 10 million dollars, so it can get international bonds accordingly.

International Equity markets: Again due to interlinked world, companies and institutions all over the world can invest their funds in any company around the globe. And through equity markets companies can sell their shares to raise its capital depending upon the asset value of the company.

International Banks: International banks are international institutions which raise capital in particular country and have branches all over the world. It can lend funds to companies on particular interest rates. Furthermore, all those bonds are generated in these banks as well.

b) Supporting an MNC that favors financing through bonds issues or through equity markets or stock issues will depend on the debt/equity ratio of the company. If it is low, company should go for debt or bond issues. If it is high then it should opt for stock issues.

Brewster's is considering a project with a life of 5 years and an initial cost of $120,000. The discount rate for the project is

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

Net present value 27.792‬

Explanation:

<u>Sales</u> 2.100 units x 20 net cash flow =<em> $ 42,000 cash flow per year</em>

<u>Present value of the first three years:</u>

$C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\$

C 42,000

time 3 years

discount rate: 0.12

$42000 \times \frac{1-(1+0.12)^{-3} }{0.12} = PV\\$

PV $100,876.9133

For year 4 and 5 we need to check for the expected cashflow

<u>We will multiply each outcome by their probability:</u>

1,400 units x $20 per unit x 0.5 chance = 14,000

2,500 units x $20 per unit x 0.5 chance = 25,000

expected return: <em>39,000</em>

<u>present value of these years:</u>

$\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV$

Maturity $39,000.0000

time 4 end of year 4th

rate 0.12

$\frac{39000}{(1 + 0.12)^{4} } = PV$

PV 24,785.21

$\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV$

Maturity $39,000.0000

time 5 end of year 5th

rate 0.12

$\frac{39000}{(1 + 0.12)^{5} } = PV$

PV 22,129.65

<u>Net present value</u> will be the present value of the cash flow less the investment.

100,877 + 24,785 + 22,130 - 120,000 = 27.792‬
