Answer: Short term is less costly
Explanation:
Total interest cost under long term financing = 800,000 × 12% × 2
= 800000 × 0.12 × 2
= $192,000
Total interest cost under short term financing = (800,000 × 7% ×1)+ (800,000 × 13.95% × 1) =
= (800000×0.07×1) + (800,000×0.139×1)
= $167,600
Based on the above solution, Short term financing is less costly.
Answer:
(a) $10 million
(b) $1 per share
(c) $49
(d) 25 %
Explanation:

Dividend payout = Dividends paid ÷ Net Income
= 50%
Dividends paid = $10 × 50%

lion
Per share dividend = Dividend paid ÷ Shares outstanding
= $5 million ÷ 5 million
= $1 per share
(c) The expected price of the stock (assuming the P/E ratio is 24.5 times earnings).
Earnings per share:
= Net income ÷ shares outstanding
= $10 million ÷ 5 million
= $2 per share
P/E Ratio = Price per share ÷ Earnings per share
Price per share = $2 × 24.5
= $49
(d) The expected holding period return (latest stock price: $40 per share).
= (Final price - Initial price + Dividend) ÷Initial Price
= ($49 - $40 + $1) ÷ $40
= 25%
