<h3>What is a risk?</h3>

Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

E. $63,401

Explanation:

gain on disposal = salvage value of plant - book value on date of sale

                            = $5,790 - $4,820

                            = $970

tax on disposal = $970*35%

                          = $339.50

after tax salvage value = $5,790 - $339.50

                                       = $5,450.50

total cash flow in 4 years

= annual operating cash flow + net working capital + after tax salvage value

= $53,500 + $4,450 + $5,450.50

= $63,401

Therefore, The Year 4 cash flow is $63,401.

Phillips Equipment has 80,000 bonds outstanding that are selling at par. Bonds with similar characteristics are yielding 7.5%. T
ollegr [7]

Answer:

A) 10.15%

Explanation:

Cost of equity (Re) = 14.06% or 0.1406

cost of preferred stock (Rp) = 7/65 = 0.10769

cost of bonds (Rb) = 7.5% or 0.075

 outstanding shares = 2.5 million shares x $42 = $105 million

bonds outstanding = $1,000 x 80,000 bonds = $80 million

preferred stock = $65 x 750,000 = $48.75 million

corporate tax rate = 38% or 0.38

total market value of equity + debt (in millions) = $105 + $48.75 + $80 = $233.75

WACC = [(outstanding shares / total market value) x Re] + [(preferred stock / total market value) x Rp] + {[(bonds outstanding / total market value) x Rb] x (1 - tax rate)}

WACC = [($105m / $233.75m) x 0.1406] + [($48.75m / $233.75m) x 0.10769] + {[($80m / $233.75m) x 0.075] x (1 - 0.38)}

WACC = 0.06316 + 0.02246 + 0.01591 = 0.10153 or 10.15%
