Rollins Corporation is estimating its WACC. Its target capital structure is 20% debt, 20% preferred stock, and 60% common equity

. Its bonds have a 7.5% coupon, paid semi-annually, a current maturity of 20 years, and sell for $1,105.78. The firm could sell, at par, $100 preferred stock which pays a 8% annual dividend, but flotation costs of 5 percent would be incurred. Rollins' beta is 1.8, the risk-free rate is 2.45%, and the market risk premium is 5%. The firm's marginal tax rate is 40 percent.

Answer:

A. What is the company's cost of preferred equity?

  • 8.42%

B. What is the company's cost of common equity?

  • 11.45%

C. What is the company's WACC?

  • 9.31%

Explanation:

20% debt ⇒ after tax cost of debt 3.76%

20% preferred stock ⇒ 8.42%

60% common equity ⇒ 11.45%

in order to determine the after tax cost of debt we must first determine the yield to maturity of debt:

approximate YTM = {37.5 +[(1,000 - 1,150.78)/40]} / [(1,000 + 1,150.78)/2] = 33.7305 / 1,075.39 = 3.3166% x 2 = 6.2732%

after tax cost of debt = 6.2732% x 0.6 = 3.76%

cost of preferred stocks = 8 / (100 x 0.95) = 8 / 95 = 8.42%

cost of equity (Re) = 2.45% + (1.8 x 5%) = 2.45% + 9% = 11.45%

WACC = (60% x 11.45%) + (20% x 8.42%) + (20% x 3.76%) = 6.87% + 1.684% + 0.752% = 9.306% = 9.31%

The average time (in minutes) Americans spend commuting to work is: 26.9 minutes.

<h3>How to calculate the average time Americans spend commuting to work?</h3>

To calculate the average time we must add all the values and then divide the result by the number of values. for example:

1 + 2 + 3 = 6 6 ÷ 3 = 2

Based on the above, the operation to find the average time Americans spend commuting to work is:

23,3 + 28,3 + 24,6 + 32,1 + 31,7 + 25,8 + 38,1 + 24,9 + 26,8 + 23,4 + 28,5 + 28,1 + 29,3 + 24,4 + 23,0 + 24,8 + 26,2 + 23,4 + 28,4 + 20,1 + 32,2 + 21,4 + 23,8 + 30,7 + 24,8 + 23,6 + 25,3 + 31,7 + 43,8 + 22,0 + 27,1 + 34,2 + 28,3 + 25,0 + 26,4 + 23,6 + 23,4 + 25,8 + 20,2 + 26,1 + 24,8 + 32,6 + 28,5 + 27,3 + 26,8 + 24,0 + 20,1 + 32,8 = 1291,5

Then we must divide this result by the number of values.

1291,5 ÷ 48 = 26,9

tekilochka [14]

Answer:

Option (C) is correct.

Explanation:

Total expenses:

= mortgage interest + property tax + utilities and maintenance + Depreciation expense

= $5,000 + $600 +  $900 + $3,500

= $10,000

Proportionate rental expenses = Total expenses × \frac{36\ days}{(36 + 14) days}

Proportionate rental expenses = 10,000 × \frac{36\ days}{(36 + 14) days}

= $7,200

Rental Loss = Rental Income - Proportionate rental expenses

                   = $4,000 - $7,200

                   = -($3,200)

(a) Where the parent company does not hold 100 percent equity of the subsidiary company, what portion of the intra-group transac
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

Follows are the solution to this question:

Explanation:

In point a:

If the parent firm doesn't hold the conglomerate's equity stake, depreciation expense acknowledged by the parent company's owner and expenditures shall be removed throughout the consolidated statement of financial position. Its combined cash flow deletes debts previously recognized as assets for both the parent corporation and as debts for all the subsidiaries to offer a real and equal view. All the intragroup balance should be removed to avoid double-counting of financial assets resulting from payments in between the group's members.

In point b:

If a parent company has a stake in a subsidiary that is called noncontrolling interest over 50%, but less than 99 percent. Its parent company shall report a different non-controlling interest line on the income statement and revenue report to reveal its noncontrolling interest.

In point c:

Its Group of non - management Concerns may not claim responsibility mostly on a share of a benefit, doesn't have any influence from over parent's decision. Intra-group payments in a word-level shall be removed.

In point d:

Its NCI share of the opening in net assets of the subsidiary + NCI share of even an amortization fair value + NCI profits due to NCI - (dividend payable to the noncontrolling shareholder) = unlawful interest at the date of the merger is three steps for the calculation of total the uncontrol value.

How can you best uncover challenges and constraints that employees deal with in their daily work.
Westkost [7]

Answer:

Assumptions and expectations are the root causes of workplace constraints.

Explanation:

To avoid workplace conflicts one needs detailed information and clarity. If we train ourselves to think in a positive way and act without anger will do wonders. Our conduct in a situation is going to be really different if we take some time to look at good intentions instead of immediately reacting. It's much more productive to turn a bunch of assumptions into a shared understanding of the information.
