Answer:

True.

Explanation:

Standard deviation can be defined as a quantity used to determine or measure how much a set of values differs from the mean value.

A high standard deviation generally means that the data points are widely scattered from the mean while a low standard deviation generally means that the data points are closely related to the mean or average value.

Hagelin Co. wants to issue new 15-year bonds for some much-needed expansion projects. The company currently has 8 percent coupon

Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

YTM 7.02%

Explanation:

we will calcualte the YTM of the current bonds to know the market rate.

Issuing the bonds at this rate will put them at par value.

The YTM is the one which mades the future coupon payment and maturity equal to the market price.

$C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\$

Coupon payment: 1,000 x 8%/2 = 40

time 30 (15 years x 2 payment)

$40 \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-30} }{r} = PV\\$

PV coupon

$\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV$

Maturity 1,000.00

time 30.00

$\frac{1000}{(1 + r)^{30} } = PV$

PV maturity 355.24

PV coupon + PV maturity = 1,090

For maths reason the only way to solve for rate is with trial and error

we can, however use excel to do it more quickly than by hand:

we write on A1 cell 0.1

en on B1 cell: =PV(A1,30,40)

on C1 cell= 1,000/power(1+A1;1/30)

on D1 =B1+C1

What we are doing is expressing the formulas on excel

then we use goal seek on D1

w e want it on 1090 cahnging the cell A1 which is the rate

this give us the semiannual rate of :

0.035100422

we multiply by 2 to get the annual rate:

0.070200843

YTM = 7.02%

we need to issue the bond at this rate.

Hardmon Enterprises is currently anâ all-equity firm with an expected return of 15.2%. It is considering a leveraged recapitaliz

Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

a. The expected return of equity is

= Expected return + debt to equity ratio × (expected return - debt cost to capital)

= 15.2% + 0.5 × (0.152 - 0.05)

= 20.3%

b. Now the debt cost of capital is 7%

So, the expected return of equity is

= Expected return + debt to equity ratio × (expected return - debt cost to capital)

= 15.2% + 0.5 × (0.152 - 0.07)

= 27.5%

c. As we know that if the investment has a higher return than of course it has high risk also or we can say it is compensated by high risk

So it would be best shareholder interest
