The beta of an all equity firm is 2.3. If the firm changes its capital structure to 50% debt and 50% equity using 8% debt financing, what will be the equity beta of the levered firm? The beta of debt is 0.2. (Assume no taxes.) Provide your answer with 2 digits after the comma.

Answer:

4.40

Explanation:

Equity beta, is a term in business or economics, which is.oftemr referred to as Levered beta, which measures the risk of a firm in respect to debt and equity in its capital structure to the volatility of the stock market.

Therefore, Formula for equity beta is giving as = βE = equity firm + (debt/equity)(equity firm - beta of debt)

Given that, equity firm = 2.3

Capital structure to debt = 50% = 0.5

Capital structure to equity = 50% = 0.5

Beta of debt = 0.2

βE = 2.3 + (0.5/0.5)(2.3 - 0.2) =

2.3 + (0.5/0.5)(2.3 - 02) =

= 2.3 + (1)(2.1)=

2.3 + 2.1= 4.40

Hence, the final is 4.40

Clampett, Incorporated, has been an S corporation since its inception. On July 15, 2021, Clampett, Incorporated, distributed $50
statuscvo [17]

Answer:the total amount of income J.D. recognizes related to Clampett, Incorporated, in 2021 =$5,000

Explanation:

Income  of J.D related to Clampett = Ordinary income + Capital gain

Given that Basis distribution = $50,000

                   Basis stock = $45,000

                  Ordinary income = $10,000

But Capital gain  = Basis distribution -( Basis stock  + Ordinary income)

Capital gain = $50,000 - ($45,000 +$10,000)

Capital gain =  $50,000 - $55,000

Capital gain =  = - $5,000

Therefore J.D. income related to Clampett = Ordinary income + Capital gain =$10,000 +(- $5,000)

=$10,000 - $5,000

=$5,000

Joseph buys a Hummer for $59,000, financing it with a five-year 7.60% APR loan paid monthly. He decides to pay an extra $50 per
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

57.07 months.

Joseph must decide whether the 57th payment was $1,327, or he can pay a 58th payment of just $92.

Explanation:

The easiest way to calculate a monthly payment is using a payment calculator:

  • principal = 59,000
  • n = 60
  • APR = 7.6%

Monthly payments = $1,185.04

Since Joseph will pay an extra $50 each month, his payment = $1,235.04

By paying that extra amount Joseph will reduce his payments by almost 3 months to 57.07 months

After the 57th payment, Joseph' balance = $91.43, so he can decide to pay a little on the 57th payment or just pay $92 next month.
