Bruce & Co. expects its EBIT to be $185,000 every year forever. The firm can borrow at 9 percent. Bruce currently has no deb

t, and its cost of equity is 16 percent. If the tax rate is 35 percent, what is the value of the firm? What will the value be if Bruce borrows $135,000 and uses the proceeds to repurchase shares (based on the MM Proposition)? (Assume that the debt is perpetual in the 2nd question.)

Answer:

$751,562.50 and $837,203.125

Explanation:

The formula to compute the value of the firm under the MM proposition approach is shown below:

In first case

= {EBIT × ( 1 - tax rate)} ÷ WACC

= {$185,000 × ( 1 - 0.35)} ÷ 16%

= $120,250 ÷ 16%

= $751,562.50

Since no debt is there which means the firm is unlevered firm and computation is done accordingly.

All other information which is given is not relevant. Hence, ignored it

In second case

= {EBT× ( 1 - tax rate)} ÷ WACC

= {$172,850 × ( 1 - 0.35)} ÷ 16%

= $112,352.50 ÷ 16%

= $702,203.125

EBT = $185,000 - $135,000 × 9%

       = $185,000 - $12,150

       = $172,850

So, the value of firm would be

= $702,203.125 + $135,000

= $837,203.125

g On January 1, 2021, Sealed Air had 100,000 shares of common stock outstanding. The following transactions occurred during 2021
leonid [27]

Answer:

$3.10

Explanation:

Outstanding on Jan 1 = 100,000*12/12 = 100,000

Less: Treasury Stock 3,900*10/12 = (3,250)

Add: Sold Treasury Shares 3,900*3/12 = 975

Add: New Shares Sold 12,900*1/12 = 1075

Weighted Average of Equity Shares = 100,000 - 3,250 + 975 + 1,075

Weighted Average of Equity Shares = 98,800

Basic Earnings per Share = Net Income/Weighted Average of Equity Shares outstanding

Basic Earnings per Share = $306,750/98,800 shares

Basic Earnings per Share = $3.10475709

Basic Earnings per Share = $3.10

So, Sealed Air's basic earnings per share for the year ended December 31, 2021 is $3.10.

According to the quantity theory of money, a 5 percent increase in money growth increases inflation by ___ percent. According to
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

both blanks can be filled by <u>5%</u>

Explanation:

The quantity theory of money states that there is a proportional relationship between the money supply and the general level of prices. An increase in the money supply will increase the general level of prices in the same proportion (called inflation).

The Fisher equation measures the relationship between nominal and real interest rates. Real interest rate = nominal interest rate - inflation rate.

So if inflation increases, the nominal inflation rate will increase to keep the real interest rate the same.
