Answer:

7.98%

Explanation:

For computing the market value capital structure we need to do following calculations which are shown below:

Market value of stock = 7,500,000 ×  $62 per share = $465,000,000

Cost of Equity = Risk Free rate + Beta × Market risk Premium

= 3.4% + 1.10 × 7.2%

= 11.32%

Market value of Bond = 108% × $2,000 × 160,000 bonds = $345,600,000

Coupon = 5.6% × 2000 ÷ 2 = 56

Number of Periods(n) = 18 × 2 = 36

Market value = $2000 × 1.08 = $2160

Cost of debt (YTM) using excel formula is

= RATE(36,56,$2,000,-$2,160)

= 4.92%

Market value of Preferred Stock = 275,000 × $94 = $25,850,000

Cost of Preferred Stock = 4.7%

Total value = $465,000,000 + $345,600,000 + $25,850,000

= $836,450,000

Equity ratio = $465,000,000 ÷  $836,450,000 = 0.5559

Debt ratio = $345,600,000 ÷ $836,450,000 = 0.4132

Preferred Stock ratio = $25,850,000 ÷ $836,450,000 = 0.0309

Now the market capital structure is

Cost of Project = Equity Ratio × Cost of Equity + Debt ratio × ( 1-Tax rate) × Cost of Debt + Preferred Stock ratio × Cost of Preferred stock

= 0.5559 × 11.32% + 0.4132 × (1 -24%) × 4.92% +  0.0309 × 4.7%

= 7.98%

lbvjy [14]

Answer:

The Project should be rejected.

The Net present value is lower than zero. Meaning the returns on the investment yields a loss, as we are not able to cover our initial investments.

Explanation:

The Present value of the inflow and outflow should be considered before deciding the viability of the project.

Using the Net Present Value approach, we will want to consider against the outflows and at a certain cost of capital/rate of return if this projects meets at least the minimum threshold of breaking even. At this point the net cash flow would be at least zero for the project to be accepted.

Kindly review the document attached for detailed workings.

The Chief Information Officer (CIO) and the Managing Director (MD) of Illustrious Limited recently had the following conversatio
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

Illustrious Limited

a) I sympathize with the MD.  He noted "We have been through these types of projects before, and what always ends up happening is that we do not get the new system we are promised. Instead, we get a modified version of the old system."  The implication of his assertion is that something is missing in the way the CIO and her team had been handling system development projects in the past.  Even the CIO acknowledged the MD's assertions by assuring "that this will not happen this time."  In the past, the system development team had neglected understanding "what is working well and what is not."  This should not be the case in any good system development.  Preliminary analysis or investigation should uncover users' requirements and then conduct a thorough system analysis before the design and other stages are carried out in an iterative process.

b) I would recommend SCRUM instead of the Waterfall methodology.  With Scrum, the system development project is teamwork.   The team is held accountable and SCRUM utilizes iteration to achieve well-defined goals.  The SCRUM framework "begins with a simple premise, starting with what can be seen or known before it tracks progress and tweaks as necessary," to achieve set goals defined by users' requirements.

Explanation:

a) System Development is a process that follows a system development life cycle (SDLC) methodology and involves these seven stages: requirement analysis, system analysis, system design, development or programming, testing, implementation and documentation, and evaluation and support.

b) SCRUM is a framework in SDLC which follows "a set of meetings, tools, and roles that work in concert to help teams structure and manage their work."  SCRUM has been described as "an agile way to manage a project," especially software development because of its "iterative and flexible approaches."

c)  Waterfall model, on the other hand, follows linear sequential phases of conception, initiation, analysis, design, construction, testing, deployment, and maintenance, and each stage depends on the deliverables of the previous stage.  This is why "in software development, it tends to be among the less iterative and flexible approaches, as progress flows in largely one direction ("downwards" like a waterfall) through the phases."

PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

$20,000

Explanation:

Since the cost is allocated equally, the depreciation expense on the purchased equipment will be calculated as:

                                                                 =  <u>Cost of equipment- Scrap value</u>

                                                                        Useful life

                                                                 =  <u>$100,000 - $0</u>

                                                                        5 years

                                                                = $20,000

Based on the above, the depreciation expense for the year that must be recognized by Noonan Company is $20,000.
