Answer:

After cost of debt for a floatation cost of 2% is 6.62%

Explanation:

After tax cost of debt = Market interest × (1- tax rate)

We will get the cost of debt using the time value of money principle.

PV = -$1,000

Pmt = $1,000 × 9%

=$90

P/yr = 1

N = 20

FV =1,000

Tax rate = 25%

YTM

The market interest rate is 9% using financial calculator hence;

After-tax cost of debt = Market interest × (1-tax rate)

= 0.09 × (1 - 0.25)

= 0.0675 or 6.75%

If floatation cost is 2%, then

Net receipts after floatation cost = Cost × (1 - floatation rate)

= 0.0675 × (1- 0.02)

= 0.06615 or 6.62%

Naddik [55]

Answer:

7.6 percent

Explanation:

Vaughn should offer 7.6 percent on its commercial paper.

= 0.1 + 0.2 + 0.3 + 7

= 7.6

Based on this Vaughn would offer 7.6 percent on its commercial paper.

vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

The total cost of establishing the portfolio is $2054.95.

Explanation:

The present value of a bond is given as

PV=FV\times\dfrac{1}{(1+r)^n}

For 1 year zero-coupon bond is

  • FV is 500
  • r is 7% or 0.07
  • n is 1

So the value is

PV=FV\times\dfrac{1}{(1+r)^n}\\PV=500\times\dfrac{1}{(1+0.07)^1}\\PV=500\times\dfrac{1}{(1.07)}\\PV=500\times0.9346\\PV=\$ 467.29

Similarly, for 3 years zero-coupon bond is

  • FV is 2000
  • r is 8% or 0.07
  • n is 3

So the value is

PV=FV\times\dfrac{1}{(1+r)^n}\\PV=2000\times\dfrac{1}{(1+0.08)^3}\\PV=2000\times\dfrac{1}{(1.08)^3}\\PV=2000\times0.7938\\PV=\$ 1587.66

So the total cost is

Total Cost=Cost of  1-year zero-coupon bond+Cost of 3-years zero-coupon bond

Total Cost=$ 467.29+$ 1587.66

Total Cost= $ 2054.95

So the total cost of establishing the portfolio is $2054.95.

Dayton Corporation began the current year with a retained earnings balance of $18,180. During the year, the company corrected an
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

$24,431

Explanation:

Equity which represents the amount owed to the owners of the business includes retained earnings (which is the accumulation of the net income/loss over the years less dividends paid) and common shares.

If the company failed to record a depreciation expense of $3,686 on equipment, the retained earnings would have been overstated as a result of the overstatement of the net income.

the movement in the retained earnings may be expressed as

opening balance + net income - omitted expense - dividend declared = closing balance

hence the closing balance

= $18,180 - $3,686 +$14,406 - $4,469

= $24,431
