Answer:

a. Compute the cost of retained earnings (Ke)

$60 = $3 / (Ke - 8%)

Ke - 8% = $3 / $60 = 5%

Ke = 13%

b. If a $5 flotation cost is involved, compute the cost of new common stock (Kn).

$60 (1 - $5/$60) = $3 / (Kn - 8%)

$55 = $3 / (Kn - 8%)

Kn - 8% = $3 / $55 = 5.45%

Kn = 13.45%

Flotation costs reduce the amount of money that the company receives for every new stock that it issues, therefore, it increases the cost of new stocks.

Duffert Industries has total assets of $940,000 and total current liabilities (consisting only of accounts payable and accruals)
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

ROE = 13.04%

ROIC = 7.83%

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Total assets = $940,000

Total current liabilities = $130,000

Interest rate on its debt = 8%

Tax rate = 40%

The firm's basic earning power ratio = 14%

Debt-to capital rate = 40% = 0.40

Now,

Basis earning power = EBIT ÷ Total Assets

or

EBIT = Basis earning power × Total assets

= 14% × $940,000

= $131,600

Total Assets  = Total Debt + Total Equity + Total Current Liabilities

$940,000 = Total Debt + Total equity + $130,000

Debt + Equity  = $940,000 - $130,000

= $810,000

Debt to capital ratio = Debt ÷ [ Debt + Equity ]

0.40 = Debt ÷ $810,000

or

Total Debt = $324,000

Thus,

Debt + Equity  = $810,000

or

$324,000 + Equity = $810,000

or

Equity = $810,000 - $324,000

= $486,000

Interest = 8% of Debt

= 0.08 × $324,000

= $25,920

Taxes = 40% of [ EBIT - Interest ]

= 0.40 × ($131,600 - $25,920 )

= $42,272

Therefore,

ROE = [ EBIT - interest - Taxes ] ÷  Equity

= [$131,600 - $25,920 - $42,272 ] ÷ $486,000

= 0.1304

= 13.04%

ROIC = [ EBIT - interest - Taxes ] ÷ Total capital

= [$131,600 - $25,920 - $42,272 ] ÷ [Debt + Equity]

= [$131,600 - $25,920 - $42,272 ] ÷ $810,000

= 0.0783 = 7.83%

9 . Implied interest rate and period Consider the case of the following annuities, and the need to compute either their expected
vodomira [7]

Answer:

IRR 6% for Jabob

His friend will need 12 years saving cash to obtain their collegue funds.

Explanation:

We will solve for the rate being the annuity of 3 payment of 800

and the present value 2,138.41

C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\  

C 800

time 3

PV 2,138.41

rate ?

800 \times \frac{1-(1+x)^{-3} }{x} = 2,138.41\\  

To solve we can use excel, a financial calculator or trial and error

For excel we will do the following:

write the list of cash through the loan life:

-2,138.41

+800

+800

+800

then we write in the empy cell

=IRR(

select the values and press enter

This will give the IRR which is 6%

For the second assignment:

we need to solve for time:

C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\  

C    3,800

time            n  

rate            0.06

PV $31,897

3800 \times \frac{1-(1+0.06)^{-n} }{0.06} = 31,897\\  

 We work out the formula:

(1+0.06)^{-n} = \frac{31,897\times 0.06}{3,800}

Now we solve the right side and apply logarithmic properties

-n = \frac{log0.503636842&#10;}{log1.06}

-n = -11.77128325

n = 11.77

It will take 12 years to obtain their target amount
