The present value of a perpetual tax shield increases as the firm's tax rate ________ and as the amount of the debt ________.
enyata [817]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

The value of tax shield is simply given as corporate tax rate times the cost of debt times the market value of debt.

If the debt is constant and perpetual, the company’s tax shield depends only on the corporate tax rate and the value of debt. Then the present value of tax shield equals the discounted value of debt

Crank

Answer:

Current Liabilities

Federal Income Taxes Payable $336,000

Advances on Magazine Subscriptions $1,593,750

Total Current Liabilities $1,929,750

Explanation:

Federal Income Taxes Payable

This is a current Liability as it falls under a period of a year. As March ends the first quarter, the quarterly tax is;

= 840,000 x 40%

= $336,000

Advances on Magazine Subscriptions

They are to deliver monthly subscriptions for 12 months to the tune of 25,000 copies which they have already been paid for. Under the Accrual system they cannot recognize this as revenue until they have fulfilled their obligation to deliver the magazines and until then, they are current Liabilities. As of end of March, they have fulfilled their obligations for 3 months leaving 9 in the year.

= 25,000 x $85 x 9/12

=$1,593,750

Stech Co. is issuing $9 million 12% bonds in a private placement on July 1, 2017. Each $1,000 bond pays interest semi-annually o
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

Expected selling price =$ 1,271.81

Explanation:

<em>The price of a bond is the present value (PV) of the future cash inflows expected from the bond discounted using the yield to maturity.</em>

<em>These cash flows include interest payment and redemption value</em>

The price of the bond can be calculated as follows:

Step 1

<em>PV of interest payment</em>

coupon rate - 12%, yield - 8%, years to maturity- 10 years

Semi-annual coupon rate = 12%/2 = 6%

Semi-annual Interest payment =( 6%×$1000)= $60

Semi annual yield = 8%/2 = 4%

PV of interest payment

= A ×(1- (1+r)^(-n))/r

A- interest payment, r- yield - 4%, n- no of periods- 2 × 10 = 20periods

= 60× (1-(1.04)^(-10×2))/0.04)

= 60× 13.59032634

=$815.41

Step 2

<em>PV of redemption value (RV)</em>

PV = RV × (1+r)^(-n)

RV - redemption value- $1000, n- 2×10 r- 4%

= 1,000 × (1+0.04)^(-2×10)

= $456.38

Step 3

<em>Price of bond = PV of interest payment + PV of RV</em>

= $815.41 + $456.38

= $ 1,271.81

Expected selling price =$ 1,271.81
