Answer:
$6.
Explanation:
Holding stock of a Public company entitles you to a potential return on your investment which can be in the form of Capital Appreciation/Gain, that is buying at low and selling at high, or Dividends received. In the given question, we are not required to calculate total return rather capital gain, simply the difference between purchase price and selling price, so there is no need to account for dividends. The formula for Capital Gain is given below:
Capital Gain / Appreciation = Selling Price - Purchase Price
⇒ Capital Gain = 38 - 32 = $6.
Answer:
My savings
Explanation:
Savings for a month is the amount left after deducting all my expenditure from my monthly income
Savings = income - total expenditure
income = $2,000
total expenditure = $200 + $1,000 + $400 + $200 = $1,800
Savings = $2,000 - $1,800 = $200
False - because not every business plans work
Answer:
a) Pre-tax cost of debt is 8.45%
b) After tax cost of debt is 5.07%
Explanation:
a) Given:
Debt issue outstanding = $15.5 million
Semi-annual coupon rate = 0.063 / 2 = 0.0315
Assumed par value (FV) = $1,000
Coupon payment (pmt) = 0.0315 × 1000 = $31.5
Current bond price (PV) = 92% of $1,000 = $920
Time period (nper) = 5 × 2 = 10 periods
Calculate semi-annual rate using spreadsheet function =Rate(nper,pmt,PV,FV)
Semi-annual rate = 4.14%
Pmt and FV are negative as they are cash outflows.
YTM = 4.14 × 2 = 8.28%
Effective annual rate = 
= 
= 0.0845 or 8.45%
b) Tax rate is 40%
After tax cost of debt = Pre tax cost of debt × (1 - 0.4)
= 0.0845 × 0.6
= 0.0507 or 5.07%
