Being Human, Inc., recently issued new securities to finance a new TV show. The project cost $14.1 million, and the company paid

$735,000 in flotation costs. In addition, the equity issued had a flotation cost of 7.1 percent of the amount raised, whereas the debt issued had a flotation cost of 3.1 percent of the amount raised. If the company issued new securities in the same proportion as its target capital structure, what is the company’s target debt-equity ratio? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 4 decimal places, e.g., .1616.)

Answer:

The company’s target debt-equity ratio is 1.16 : 1

Explanation:

Percentage flotation costs = 1 - (14100000/14100000 + 735000)

                                             = 1 - (14100000/14835000)

                                             = 4.95%

We know that:

(1 + Debt/Equity)*4.95%  = 0.071 + 0.031*(Debt/Equity)(Percentage flotation cost equation)

0.0495 + 0.0495*(Debt/Equity) = 0.071 + 0.031*(Debt / Equity)

0.049545*(Debt/Equity) - 0.031*(Debt/Equity) = 0.071 - 0.0495

0.018545*(Debt/Equity) = 0.021455

Debt/Equity = 0.021455/0.018545

Debt / Equity = 1.16 : 1

Therefore, The company’s target debt-equity ratio is 1.16 : 1

Amanda [17]
Sum of the year's digits is 5 + 4 + 3 + 2 +1 = 15 years. 
Depreciation base: 32,000 - 2,000 = 30,000
The depreciation applied in any year is the depreciation base times (number of years remaining divided by 15). The first year has the highest depreciation, and the fifth year has the lowest. 
Depreciation:
1st Year: Dep Base x 5/15
2nd Year: Dep Base x 4/15
3rd Year: Dep Base x 3/15
4th Year: Dep Base x 2/15 = 30,000 x 2/15 = 4,000
5th Year: Dep Base x 1/15

Answer is $4,000
