Suppose the rate of return on a 10-year T-bond is 4.05%, the expected average rate of inflation over the next 10 years is 2.0%,

Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

1.15%.

Explanation:

This can be calculated as follows:

Yield be on a 10-year TIPS = Rate of return on the 10 year T-bond - Average Inflation - Market Risk Premium (MRP)

Therefore, we have:

Yield be on a 10-year TIPS = 4.05% - 2.0% - 0.9% = 1.15%

Therefore, the yield on a 10-year TIPS should be 1.15%.

$2.67

2.What is the dividend for the 2nd year?

$3.31

3.What is the dividend for the 3rd year?

$3.90

4.What is the dividend for the 4th year?

$4.60

5.What is the dividend for the 5th year?

$5.43

6.Compute the present value of these dividends if the required rate of return is 14 percent.

1. $2.34

2. $2.54

3. $2.63

4. $2.73

5. $2.82

Explanation:

Last Dividend paid = $2.15

Growth rate:

First two years = 24%

Following three years = 18%

FV of Dividend = PV ( 1 + g )^n

Dividend for the 1st year = $2.15 x ( 1 + 24% )^1 = $2.15 x ( 1 + 0.24 )^1 = $2.15 x ( 1.24 )^1 = $2.67

Dividend for the 2nd year = $2.15 x ( 1 + 24% )^2 = $2.15 x ( 1 + 0.24 )^2 = $2.15 x ( 1.24 )^2 = $3.31

Dividend for the 3rd year = $3.31 x ( 1 + 18% )^1 = $3.31 x ( 1 + 0.18 )^1 = $3.31 x ( 1.18 )^1 = $3.90

Dividend for the 4th year = $3.31 x ( 1 + 18% )^2 = $3.31 x ( 1 + 0.18 )^2 = $3.31 x ( 1.18 )^2 = $4.60

Dividend for the 5th year = $3.31 x ( 1 + 18% )^3 = $3.31 x ( 1 + 0.18 )^3 = $3.31 x ( 1.18 )^3 = $5.43

6.The present value of these dividends

Present value of dividends can be calculated by following formula:

PV = FV / ( 1 + r )^n

FV = Dividend for the year

r = rate of return = 14%

n = number of years

1. PV = $2.98 / ( 1 + 0.14 )^1 = $2.98 / ( 1.14 )^1 = $2.98 / 1.14 = $2.34

2. PV = $3.31 / ( 1 + 0.14 )^2 = $3.31 / ( 1.14 )^2 = $3.31 / 1.2996 = $2.54

3. PV = $3.90 / ( 1 + 0.14 )^3 = $3.90 / ( 1.14 )^3 = $3.90 / 1.481544 = $2.63

4. PV = $4.60 / ( 1 + 0.14 )^4 = $4.60 / ( 1.14 )^4 = $4.60 / 1.68896 = $2.73

5. PV = $5.43 / ( 1 + 0.14 )^5 = $5.43 / ( 1.14 )^5 = $5.43 / 1.925416 = $2.82

Douglas can afford 240$ a month for five years for a car loan. If the APR is 8.5%, how much can he afford to borrow to purchase

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

Douglas can afford 21697.88 to borrow to purchase a car.

Explanation:

As the formula for calculating present value is given as:

PV = PMT * ( (1-(1+r)^-n) / r )

As Douglas can afford 240$ a month for five years for a car loan so

it means that payment = 240 $

As the APR is 8.5% which means after dividing by 12 the rate per month = 8.5%/12

Total number of Months = 5*12

Total number of Months = 60

Putting these values into the above formula, we get

PV = PMT * ( (1-(1+r)^-n) / r )

PV = 240 * ( (1-(1+8.5%/12)^-60) / (8.5%/12) )

PV = 11697.88

As the down payment = 10,000 so the total value of car

= 11697.88+10000

= 21697.88

Douglas can afford 21697.88 to borrow to purchase a car.

The net income as shown on the common-size income statement of Omega industries for the past three years increased from 3% to 6%

vlada-n [284]

Answer:

See explanation section

Explanation:

Req. A & B

If there is an increase in the net income over the year, the company is in profitability condition. As Omega industries are getting increased net income, it suggests their profitability.

EVM or enterprise value multiplier allows a company to compare the capital structure that the company uses. It is commonly used for valuing a business.

Req. C, D & E

In a financial plan, if the sales increase, it should be because of increasing working capital and fixed assets. We know, additional assets can generate more revenues.

A firm can collect approximately 8% of its annual sales at any given time. It can be found through the following way-

since the days' sales in receivables for 30 days in a year, the percentage of annual sales = (30 ÷ 365) × 100 = 8.22% or 8%
