Answer:
$4,500
Explanation:
depreciation expense
= [revised cost of asset - salvage value]/[remaining life of the assets]
= [$39,000 - $3,00]/[8 years]
= $4,500
Therefore, The Depreciation expense for Year 6 is $4,500.
Answer:
James will lose money, since his earnings will be lower than the interest that he must pay.
Explanation:
The capitalization (cap) rate is a ratio calculated by dividing the net operating income over the property asset value.
For example, if James is purchasing the property at $100,000, his net earning will be $7,500 per year (cap rate of 7.5%), but he will have to $8,000 in interests for the property. The interests are higher than the earnings, therefore the leverage is negative.
Answer:
8.76%
Explanation:
Using the CAPM formula:
Ke = Rf + Beta Factor * Risk premium
Here
Rf is 5%,
Beta Factor is 1.6
And
Risk Premium is 6%
By putting values, we have:
Ke = 5% + 1.6 * 6%
Ke = 14.6%
Now we will find new firm's cost of equity under 40% debt by simply multiplying it with the equity percentage:
Weighted Cost of Equity = 14.6% * 60% = 8.76%
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
The semiannual interest of 3.5%.
A) We need to calculate the nominal interest rate:
Nominal interest rate= 0.035/2= 0.0175
B) Real interest rate:
Real interest rate= (1.0175^2) - 1= 0.03531
It compounds interest twice a year. Therefore, is higher
C) Investment= $8,000
We will use the following formula:
FV= PV*(1+i)^n
n= 10
i= 0.175
PV= 8,000
FV= 8,000*(1.0175^10)
FV= $9,515.56
Answer:
c. $8.63
Explanation:
Missing word <em>"The forward LIBOR rate is 7%. All rates are compounded semiannually. A. $8.88
, B. $9.12
, C. $8.63
, D. $9.02"</em>
Principal = $1000, FRA Rate = 9 % per annum, LIBOR after 2 years = 7 % per annum, Compounding Frequency: Semi-Annual, Risk-Free Rate = 6 % per annum
The FRA matures 2 years or 24 months from now. Further, the Interest Rate that the FRA hedges will create an interest expense only at the end of the LIBOR loan period which is an additional 6 months after the 24 month period.
Hence, Exchange of Interest Expense at the end of 30 Months = (FRA Rate - LIBOR) x Principal (calculated on a semi-annual basis)
= (0.045 - 0.035) * 1000
= $10
Current Value of FRA = Present Value of Interest Expense at the end of the 30 Months Period
= 10 / [1+(0.06/2)]^(30/6)
= $8.6261
= $8.63
