Answer: 8.3

Explanation:

The times interest earned is used to estimate the ability of a company to pay its debt payments using income from operations.

It is calculated by the formula:

= Earnings before interest and tax / Interest expense

Earnings before interest and tax:

= Earnings before tax + Interest expense

= 730,000 + 100,000

= $830,000

Times interest earned:

= 830,000 / 100,000

= 8.3

lesya692 [45]

Answer:

A) Qualcomm's enterprise value= $95 billion

B) Asset Beta of Qualcomm’s business = 1.29

C) Qualcomm's WACC= 7.931%

Explanation:

The question relates to Capital asset pricing model (CAPM) which is used to calculate the required return from an investment given the level of risk associated with the investment. Now there are many risk that the level of cash flows and hence the required return from an investment such as systematic and unsystematic risks, business and finance risks etc.

The requirements of the question are as follows:

a)What is Qualcomm’s enterprise value?

b)What is the beta of Qualcomm’s business assets?

c)What is Qualcomm’s WACC?

The first two requirements will help us compute requirement C so we begin solving it form A as follows:

A) Qualcomm's enterprise value= ve- vd +va

ve= value of equity

vd= value of debt

va= value of asset

Qualcomm's enterprise value= $87b - $13b +$21b

Qualcomm's enterprise value= $95 billion

B) Beta of Qualcomm’s business assets:

Now beta is an index used to measure systematic risks (risks posed by macro-economic factors such as tax, interest rates etc). There are two beta indexes, asset beta and equity beta. Asset beta measures business risks only and equity beta measures both business and finance risks. In the question we already have equity beta so we need to calculate asset beta in order to compute Qualomm's WACC.

ba = be× ve/enterprise value

ba = asset beta

be= equity beta

ba= 1.41× $87÷$95

Beta of Qualcomm's business= 1.29

C) Qualcomm’s WACC:

The formula is as follows:

Ke= Rf + (market premium)× ba

ke = WACC

Rf= risk free rate of interest

ba= asset beta

ke= 2.9% + (3.9% ×1.29)

ke/WACC= 7.931%

A student deposits $1,642 in the bank that pays 6.2% interest yearly (using yearly compounding). After 5 years he withdraws the

tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

the perpetuity will pay the student 166.36 dollar per years

Explanation:

First, we solve for the amount of the original investment after 5 years:

$Principal \: (1+ r)^{time} = Amount$

Principal 1,642.00

time 5.00

rate 0.06200

$1642 \: (1+ 0.062)^{5} = Amount$

Amount 2,218.17

<u>Then, this goes into a perpetual annuity at 7.5%</u>

2,218.17 x 0.075 = 166.3630983 = 166.36

the perpetuity will pay the student 166.36 dollar per years
