Answer:
Payout ratio =1- 12.96%*45%*9/1.4 = 0.6252 or 62.52%
Explanation:
WACC = Weight of Equity * Cost of Equity + Weight of Debt * (1-Tax rate) * Cost of Debt
16% = 45%* Cost of Equity + 55%*(1-40%)*9%
16%-55%*(1-40%)*9% = 45%*Cost of Equity
Cost of Equity = 28.9556%
Current price of Stock = D1/(Cost of Equity - Growth)
25 = 4/(28.9556%-Growth)
Growth = 28.9556%-4/25 = 12.96%
ROE = Net income/Equity = 1.4/(45%*9)
Growth rate = (1- Payout ratio)*ROE
12.96% = (1-Payout ratio)* 1.4/(45%*9)
Payout ratio =1- 12.96%*45%*9/1.4 = 0.6252 or 62.52%
Answer:
$1,260,000
Explanation:
Given that,
Annual depreciation expense = $3.6 million
Marginal corporate tax rate = 35%
Average corporate tax rate = 30%
The reason to use marginal tax shield is that the firm would save additional amount it would have paid in taxes.
Value of the depreciation tax shield:
= Marginal corporate tax rate × Annual depreciation expense
= 35% × $3,600,000
= $1,260,000
Therefore, the value of the depreciation tax shield on the company's new project is $1,260,000.
Answer:
Many people's wealth is held in stocks and as the price of stocks collapsed, they lost wealth.
Imagine that this happened to you. One day you are rich and that affects your spending habits. In a matter of few days or weeks, you lose a large portion of your wealth. So now, you are less rich or even poor. So your spending habits will be altered, i.e. you will spend less.
If you consider the economy as a whole, aggregate demand will fall, resulting in a decrease of aggregate supply, and an overall decrease of the GDP.
