Cost of Debt. Micro Spinoffs Inc. issued 20-year debt a year ago at par value with a coupon rate of 8%, paid annually. Today, th
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

5.925%

Explanation:

For computing the cost of debt, first we have to determine the YTM by using the Rate formula that is shown in the attachment

Given that,  

Present value = $1,050

Assuming figure - Future value or Face value = $1,000  

PMT = 1,000 × 8%  = $80

NPER = 20 year - 1 year = 19 year

= Rate(NPER;PMT;-PV;FV;type)  

The present value come in negative  

So, after solving this,  

1. The pretax cost of debt is 7.50%

2. And, the after tax cost of debt would be

= Pretax cost of debt × ( 1 - tax rate)

= 7.50% × ( 1 - 0.21)

= 5.925%

Buffalo National Corp. (BNC) is currently an all-equity firm worth $320 million with 50 million common shares outstanding. BNC p
balu736 [363]

Answer:

The solution as per the given problem is provided below throughout the explanation portion below.

Explanation:

The given values are:

Debt issued,

= 120

Pretax earnings,

= 80

Tax,

= 35%

All equity firm,

= $320

Number of common stock,

= 50

(a)

Balance sheet before the debt issue's announcement will be:

<u>Assets </u><u>                                 320</u>

<u>Debt   </u><u>                                    0</u>

<u>Equity  </u><u>                                 320</u>

then,

The total will be "320".

(b)

The per share price will be:

= \frac{Equity}{Number \ of \ common \ stock}

= \frac{320}{50}

= 6.40

or,

After tax, the net income will be:

= EBIT(1-t)

= 80(1-0.35)

= 80\times 0.65

= 52

(c)

The return on equity will be:

= \frac{Net \ income \ after \ taxes}{Value \ of \ equity}

= \frac{52}{320}

= 0.1625

or,

= 16.25 (%)
