Answer:

The trade in value is higher than the book value by $ 205

Explanation:

Computation of Book value

In a double declining balance method of depreciation, the rate of depreciation is double the straight line rate and is depreciated on a declining balance.

Cost of Equipment                                                                            $ 37,000

Estimated useful life ( Recovery Period)                                             5 years

Straight Line Depreciation rate                                                            20 %

Double declining Method depreciation  rate                                      40 %

Cost                                                                                                     $ 37,000

Depreciation for year 1   at 40 %                                                        <u>$(14,800)</u>

Depreciable basis for year 2                                                              $ 22,200

Depreciation for year 2   at40 %                                                       <u>$ ( 8,880)</u>

Depreciable basis for year 3                                                              $  13,320

Depreciation for year 3   at 40 %                                                        <u>$ (5,328)</u>

Depreciable basis for year 4                                                               $   7,992

Depreciation for year 4   at 40 %                                                        <u>$    3,197) </u>

Depreciable basis for year 5                                                                $  4,795

The depreciable basis for year 5 is the net book value after 4 years

The trade value is                                                                                  $ 5,000

The trade in value is higher by                                                             $     205

Charisma, Inc., has debt outstanding with a face value of $6 million. The value of the firm if it were entirely financed by equi
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

$660,000

Explanation:

According to M & M proportion I with taxes, the value of the levered firm is:

V (Firm) = V (Equity) + V (Debt)

             = $28,400,000 + 0.25(6,000,000)

             = $28,400,000 + $1,500,000

             = $29,900,000

Total market value of the firm:

= Market value of the debt + Market value of equity

= $6,000,000 + stock outstanding × Selling price per share

= $6,000,000 + 415,000 × $56 per share

= $29,240,000

With non-marketed claims, such as bankruptcy costs, we would expect the two values to be the same.

The differences are the non-marketed claims:

Expected bankruptcy costs = $29,900,000 - $29,240,000

                                              = $660,000

kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

5.4%

Explanation:

Several years ago the Haverford Company sold a $1,000 par value bond that now has 25 years to maturity and an 8.00% annual coupon that is paid quarterly. The bond currently sells for $900.90, and the company’s tax rate is 40%. What is the component cost of debt for use in the WACC calculation

Face value of bond = coupon amount / interest rate

1000 = 80 / 8%

Therefore 900.9 = 80 / revised interest rate

multiply both sides by the 'revised interest rate

revised interest rate x 900.9 = 80

Hence, revised interest rate = 80  / 900.9 = 9%

Secondly if the company’s tax rate is 40%, the component cost of debt for use in the WACC calculation = kd (1 - t)

where:

kd = Cost of debt

t = tax rate

Therefore cost of debt for use in the WACC calculation = 9% (1-0.4) = 5.4%
