Svetlanka [38]

Answer: The present value of the new drug is $19.33 million

We follow these steps to arrive at the answer:

Expected Revenues from the drug in year 1(P)   $2 million

Growth Rate (g)                                                        2% p.a.

No. of years  (n)                                                      17 years  

Discount rate (r)                                                        9% p.a.

Since the revenues are expected to grow at a constant rate of 2% p.a, we can treat this series of cash flows as a <u>growing annuity. </u>

We calculate the Present Value of a growing annuity with the following formula:

PV = \frac{P}{r-g}*\left [ 1- \left (\frac{1+g}{1+r}\right)^{n}\right]

Substituting the values we get,

PV = \frac{2}{0.09-0.02}*\left [ 1- \left (\frac{1+0.02}{1+0.09}\right)^{17}\right]

PV = \frac{2}{0.07}*\left [1- 0.323558233\right]

PV = 28.57142857 * 0.676441767

PV = 19.32690763

Luden [163]

Answer:

The price of tee times needs to be decreased by 6.67%.

Explanation:

The manager wants to increase the number of tee times sold by 10 percent.

The price elasticity of demand for tee times is –1.5.

Percentage change in price of tee times to increase the demand by 10%

Price elasticity of demand = \frac{\% \Delta Q}{\% \Delta P}

-1.5 = \frac{10 \%}{\% \Delta P}

\% \Delta P = \frac{10}{-1.5}\% \Delta P = -6.67 \%

Rollins Corporation is constructing its marginal cost of capital (MCC) schedule. Its target capital structure is 30 percent debt
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

The After Tax Cost of Debt = 0.072 or 7.2%

Explanation:

The question is to determine the After Tax Cost of Debt for Rolling Stone.

This is carried out as follows

Step 1: When we decide to calculate the Yield to Maturity, it should be noted that Market Value = Par Value

Therefore,

Coupon Rate which is the same as the Yield to Maturity (YTM) = 12%

Step 2: Based on this derivative, therefore,

After Tax Cost of Debt = Yield TO Maturity Rate (1-Marginal Tax Rate)

= 12% (1-40%)

= 0.12 (1-0.4)

The After Tax Cost of Debt = 0.072 or 7.2%
