Answer:

Dividends would increase by $552500.

Explanation:

Original capital budget         $3,000,000

New capital budget              $2,150,000

Net income                            $3,500,000

% Debt                                          35%

                                                         Old                    New

% Debt                                                   35%                 35%

% Equity = 1 – %Debt                            65%                 65%

Capital budget                              $3,000,000            $2,150,000

Net income (NI)                         $3,500,000              $3,500,000

Equity needed to support

the capital budget =

%Equity * Capital budget               $1,950,000               $1,397,500

Dividends paid =                            $1,550,000               $2,102,500

NI - Equity needed

if positive.

Increase in dividends paid = $2,102,500 - $1,550,000 = $552500.

Answer:

Thus, the present value is $2045.52.

Explanation:

Use the below formula to find the present value:

Present value = FV ÷ (1 + r/4)^(n*4)

Present value :

=\frac{700}{(1 + \frac{0.08}{4} )^{1 \times 4} } + \frac{700}{(1 + \frac{0.08}{4} )^{2 \times 4} } + \frac{0}{(1 + \frac{0.08}{4} )^{3 \times 4} } +\frac{1100}{(1 + \frac{0.08}{4} )^{4 \times 4} } \\ \\= \frac{700}{1.0824}+\frac{700}{1.1716} +0+\frac{1100}{1.3727} \\= 2045.52

Thus, the present value is $2045.52.
