Answer:

a)

$50 = $2 / (16% - g)

16% - g = $2 / $50 = 4%

g = 16% - 4% = 12%

expected growth rate = 12%

b)

P₀ = $2 / (16% - 5%)

P₀ = $2 / 11%

P₀ = $18.18

c)

P/E ratio = share price / EPS

since the share price decreases from $50 to $18.18, the P/E ratio will decrease. When you are dividing a number, if the numerator decreases while the denominator remains still, the answer will decrease.

notka56 [123]

Answer: d. Sell 210 shares and loan out the proceeds at 8 percent

Explanation:

Because the Firm wants to use a Debt to Equity Capital structure instead of an All Equity structure, she can lend money out at the company interest rate to NEGATE the conversion.

She can do this by selling 35% of her portfolio and loaning it out at 8%

35 % of her Portfolio would be,

= 0.35 * 600

= 210 shares

So she can sell 210 shares and loan at the proceeds at 8% to offset the Company's conversion

Ghella [55]

Answer: True

Explanation:

As a result of the Accrual principle in accounting, transactions need to be recorded in the period that they occur in and not in the period they are paid for in.

The interest in Year 1 was incurred in year 1 and so will need to be recorded in year 1 for the period from issuance of the note to the last day of the accounting period.

This means that if the last day of the accounting period is December 31st, the interest for year 1 would have to be accrued from September to December of year 1 and recorded as year 1 interest.
