1. The beta for Eastman Kodak is 1.10. The current six-month treasury bill rate is 3.25%. Estimate the cost of equity for Eastma

Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

1) Cost of equity is 12.501%

2) Price of bond is $935.82

3) Price of semi-annual bond is $934.96

Explanation:

1) Given:

Beta = 1.1

Risk free rate (Rf) = 3.25%

Market risk premium (Rp) = 8.41%

Using CAPM to compute cost of equity:

Re = Rf + β (Rp)

= 3.25 + 1.1(8.41)

= 12.501%

2) Price of bond is present value of bond.

Face value (FV) = $1,000

Maturity (nper) = 10 years

Coupon rate = 8%

Coupon payment (PMT) = 0.08× 1000 = $80

Discount rate (rate) = 9% or 0.09

Using spreadsheet function =PV(rate,nper,pmt,FV)

Price of bond is $935.82. It is negative as it's cash outflow

3) Price of semi-annual bond is present value of bond.

Face value (FV) = $1,000

Maturity (nper) = 10×2 = 20 periods

Coupon rate = 8% ÷ 2 = 4%

Coupon payment (PMT) = 0.04× 1000 = $40

Discount rate (rate) = 9% ÷ 2 = 4.5% or 0.045

Using spreadsheet function =PV(rate,nper,pmt,FV)

Price of semi-annual bond is $934.96

Explain the nature of mergers and acquisitions and the reasons why they may be used as a form of strategy development.

Drupady [299]

Answer:

Mergers and acquisitions consist of either joining two or more firms, or having one firm acquire another firm.

The rationale behind a merger or acquisiton is always strategic: a merger or an acquisition is carried out with the goal of improving the economic position and performance of the firms involved.

Some business strategies that can be implemented by a merger or acquisition are:

Horizontal integration: companies that sell similar products merge in order to join forces and expand their market reach.
Vertical integration: companies in the same industry, but that sell different products (for example, one company sells cars and the other sells bikes) merge in order to expand their market share.
Conglomerate formation: companies in different industries join in order to expand their markets even more.

Suppose that technological advancements stimulate $20 billion in additional investment spending. If the MPC = 0.6, how much will

grin007 [14]

Answer:

option (D) $50 billion.

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Additional investment spending = $20 billion

MPC = 0.6

Now,

Increase in aggregate demand = [1 ÷ (1 - mpc) ] × Investment

Increase in aggregate demand = [1 ÷ (1 - 0.4) ] × $20 billion

Increase in aggregate demand = (1 ÷ 0.4) × $20 billion

Increase in aggregate demand = 2.5 × $20 billion

Increase in aggregate demand = $50 billion

Hence.

the correct answer is option (D) $50 billion.
