T-Bills are a security whose price can vary in the market where they are bought and sold after they are auctioned to the investi

ng public by the U.S. Treasury. This is much like stock prices -- their price varies over time (though, usually, bond prices are less volatile than stock prices). Say that you own a 1-year T-Bill that you purchased it 6 months ago and will hold it to maturity. Today, interest rates rose. Which one of the following is correct regarding the T-Bill that you own? A. What you earn on this security would decline as a result of the change in interest rates. B. What you earn on this security would rise as a result of the change in interest rates. C. What you earn on this security would not change as a result of the change in interest rates.

Answer:

C. What you earn on this security would not change as a result of the change in interest rates.

Explanation:

The increase in the interest rate will decrease the price of the T-Bill if you want to sell it to another investor, but what you will earn with the security will not change at all. Your earnings in dollars = interest rate paid by the T-Bill or any other type of bond.

If you buy and sell securities for a living, then a change in the interest rates can make you win or lose money, since the price of the securities will increase or decrease. If interest rates increase, the price decreases. But if you invest on a security to earn the coupon or interest rate that it pays, a change in the price will not affect you because you already own it. The opportunity cost of holding the security might change, but the accounting revenues will not.

Most economists believe that prices are:
BaLLatris [955]

Answer: Most economist believe that prices are flexible in the long run but many are sticky in the short run.

Explanation:

Prices are sticky in the short run because producers and buyers take time to adapt to new situations. If there is a shortage of butter, lets say, the economic theory says that the prices will rise because there is less butter ( ceteris paribus = all the other factors remain constant). Actually, buyers and suppliers need time to adapt to the new situation. However, in the long run buyers and suppliers have time to adapt to new situations so prices become more flexible.

You are given the following information for Cleen Power Co. Assume the company’s tax rate is 40 percent. Debt: 5,000 6.6 percent
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

    WACC   = 8.84%

Explanation:

Face value= $ 1000    (assume)

Current price = 1000* 109% = 1090

semianual interest =1000 *.066*6/12 = 33

semiannual months = 20 *2 = 40

Yield to maturity of bonds = [semiannual interest +(face value -current price) /months]/[(face value+price)/2]

                                            = [33 + (1000- 1090 )/40 ]/[(1000 +1090)/2]

                                            = [33 + (-90/40) ] / [2090 /2]

                                           = [33 - 2.25 ] /1045

                                          = 30.75 /1045

                                       = .0294 or 2.94% semiannually or (2.94*2) =5.88 % annually

After tax cost of debt = 5.88 (1- .40 ) = 3.528 %

Market value of bond = 1090 *5000 = $ 5450000

b)cost of equity =Rf +[beta*market premium ]

                           = 4.6 + [1.12 * 5]

                            = 4.6 + 5.6

                            = 10.20 %

market value of equity = 380000*56 =$ 21280000

Total market value of debt and equity =5450000 +21280000

                                                                  = $ 26730000

weight of debt = 5450000/26730000 = .2039

weight of equity = 21280000 /26730000 = .7961

WACC = (after tax cost of debt *WD)+(cost of equity *We)

            = (3.528 * .2039 )+(10.20 * .7961)

              = .7194 + 8.1202

              = 8.84%

Hyundai is considering opening a plant in two neighboring states.
Svetach [21]

Answer:

a. What is the after state taxes profit in the state with the 10% tax rate?

after state tax profit = $1,015,000 x (1 - state tax rate) = $1,015,000 x 0.90 = $913,500

b.  What is the after state taxes profit in the state with the 2% tax rate?

after state tax profit = $960,000 x (1 - state tax rate) = $960,000 x 0.98 = $940,800

Unlike federal corporate taxes which apply to all US corporations regardless of where they operate, state corporate taxes vary a lot depending on the state. Some states do not collect any tax at all (6 states) while others charge taxes that vary from 2.5% to 12%.
