The Corner Bakery has a bond issue outstanding that matures in 7 years. The bonds pay interest semi-annually. Currently, the bon
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

Ans. The after tax cost of this bond is 2.09%

Explanation:

Hi, first we need to establish the cash flow of the bond, so we can find the after tax cost of the bond. After we find the after tax cash flow of the bond, we must use the IRR function of MS Excel to find the semi-annual cost of this debt, but, all after tax debts should be presented in annual basis. Let me walk you through the process. First, let me show you how it should look.

Face Value      100  

price              101,4  

years                7 years  

Coupon                9%  

Coupon                4,5% semi-annually  

tax                      30%  

   

Per       Cash Flow After Tax  

0                 101,4 101,4  

1                   -4,5 -3,15  

2                   -4,5 -3,15  

3                   -4,5 -3,15  

4                   -4,5 -3,15  

5                   -4,5 -3,15  

6                   -4,5 -3,15  

7                   -4,5 -3,15  

8                   -4,5 -3,15  

9                  -4,5 -3,15  

10                  -4,5 -3,15  

11                  -4,5 -3,15  

12                  -4,5 -3,15  

13                  -4,5 -3,15  

14               -104,5 -73,15  

   

Cost of Debt 1,04% semi-annually

Cost of Debt 2,09% annually

Ok, now, as you can see, there are 14 periods, that is because the coupon is paid semi-annually, the way to find the cash flow (I mean, the bond´s coupon) is:

Coupon (semi-annual)=(Face Value)x\frac{0.09}{2} =4.5

At the end (period 14), we need to add the face value and the coupon, that is $100+$4.5=$104.5

Now, to find the value of the third column (after-tax cost), we do the following.

After-tax-Cost=Couponx(1-taxes)=4.5(1-0.3)=3.15\\

Now, consider this, you are receiving 101.4 for every 100 of debt, that means that you are receiving more money than the emission value, and paying interests over 100 instead of 101.4, that is why we have to use the IRR excel function to find out the semi-annual cost of debt. That is, 1.04%.

Now, to make this an effective annual rate, we calculate it like this.

EffectiveAnnualRate=(1+semi-annual Rate)^{\frac{1}{2} }  -1=(1+0.0104)^{\frac{1}{2} } -1=0.0209

Finally, the after-tax cost of this debt is = 2.09%

Best of luck.

The following information is taken from the production budget for the first quarter: Beginning inventory in units 1000 Sales bud
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is 408,000 units

Explanation:

Computing the finished goods units to be produced during quarter is as:

= Desire units - Beginning inventory units

where

Desire units is 3,000

Beginning inventory units is 1,000

So,

=3,000 units - 1,000 units

= 2,000 units

Now, computing the finished goods units as:

Finished goods units = 2,000 units + Sales budgeted for the quarter

Finished goods units = 2,000 units + 406,000 units

Finished goods units = 408,000 units

NOTE: It should be 408,000 not 40800.

Chelsea Fashions is expected to pay an annual dividend of $1.26 a share next year. The market price of the stock is $24.09 and t
Stells [14]

Answer:

a. 7.83 percent

Explanation:

This is calculated by using the Gordon growth model (GGM) formula as follows:

P = d / (r - g) ……………………………………… (1)

Where;

P =  market price of the stock = $24.09

d = next year annual dividend = $1.26

r = cost of equity = ?

g = dividend growth rate = 2.6%, or 0.026

Substituting the values into equation and solve for r, we have:

24.09 = 1.26 / (r - 0.026)

24.09 (r - 0.026) = 1.26

24.09r - 0.62634 = 1.26

24.09r = 1.26 + 0.62634

24.09r = 1.88634

r = 1.88634 / 24.09

r = 0.0783038605230386, or 7.83038605230386%

Rounding to 2 decimal places. we have:

r = 7.83%

Therefore, the correct option is a. 7.83 percent.

"identify each of the principles underlying aicpa auditing standards in the first column by selecting the letters corresponding
adoni [48]

Explanation:

Ray, the owner of a small corporation, ordered CPA Holmes to perform a record audit. Ray told Holmes that a loan application should include a prompt analysis of the audited financial statements of a bank. Holmes acknowledged the agreement unanimously and decided that an auditor's report should be given within 3 weeks. If the loan was granted, Ray accepted to pay Holmes a fixed fee plus a bonus.

Two accountant graduates were employed by Holmes to perform the audit and spent several hours saying exactly what to do. Holmes told the students to concentrate instead on providing accurate statistical facts in the documents and summing up a date that confirms Ray's financial statements that do not include footnotes, instead of testing the controls.

Holmes checked the documents and produced a report of the auditor without qualification. The article applies neither to the GAAPs nor to their consistent application.
