Answer:

The new portfolio beta is 1.31 rounded off to two decimal places.

Explanation:

The portfolio beta is a function of the sum of the weighted average betas of the individual stock's that form up the portfolio. The portfolio beta is calculated using the following formula,

Portfolio beta = wA * Beta of A + wB * Beta of B + ... + wN * Beta of N

Where,

  • w is the weightage of each stock in the portfolio

The beta of the portfolio when one stock with a beta of 1 is sold is,

The sum of individual stock betas for 19 stocks is = 20 * 1.31  -  1 * 1  = 25.2

The new portfolio beta when one stock with a beta of 0.97 is added is,

Portfolio beta = (25.2 + 0.97) / 20

Portfolio beta = 1.3085 rounded off to 1.31

Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

Dinklage Corp.

a. The company's capital structure by book value:

Weights:

Equity = 9.84%

Debt = 90.16%

b. The company's capital structure by market value:

Weights:

Equity = 64.55%

Debt = 35.45%

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Outstanding common stock = 6 million shares

Current share price = $84

Book value per share = $5

Total equity book value = $30 million (6,000,000 * $5)

Total equity market value = $504 million (6,000,000 * $84)

First bond's face value = $145 million

Coupon rate = 5%

Selling price = 95% of par

Market value of first bond = $145 * 95% = $137.75 million

Second bond's face value = $130 million

Coupon rate = 4%

Market value = $130 * 107% = $139.1 million

Total market value of bonds = $276.85 million ($137.75 + $139.1)

Book value of bonds = $275 million ($145 + $130)

a. The company's capital structure by book value:

Equity = $30 million

Debt = $275 million

Total firm's value = $305 million

Weights:

Equity = $30/$305 * 100 = 9.84%

Debt = $275/$305 * 100 = 90.16%

b. The company's capital structure by market value:

Equity = $504 million

Debt = $276.85 million

Total firm's value = $780.85 million

Weights:

Equity = $504/$780.85 * 100 = 64.55%

Debt = $276.85/$780.85 * 100 = 35.45%
