Answer:
The answer is:
10% fixed rate = Company X's external borrowing (rate);
11.8% fixed rate = Company Y's payment to X (rate);
LIBOR + 1.5% = Company X's payment to Y (rate);
LIBOR + 1.5% = Company Y's external borrowing rate.
Explanation:
First, X will borrow at 10% fixed and Y will borrow at LIBOR + 1.5% floating; both at notational principal of $10 million.
Then; they will enter into a interest swap where:
- X will pay to the swap the interest rate of Libor +1.5% and receive from the swap the fixed interest rate of 11.8%. Thus, X interest income and interest expenses will be: Borrowed at fixed 10% and payment at Libor+1.5% to the swap; Receipt of 11.8% from the Swap=> Net effect: X borrowed at LIBOR - 0.3% ( saving of 0.3%).
- Y will pay to the swap the fixed interest rate 11.8% and receive from the swap LIBOR +1.5%. Thus, Y interest income and interest expenses will be: Borrowed at LIBOR +1.5 and payment 11.8% fixed to the swap; Receipt of Libor + 1.5% from Bthe Swap=> Net effect: Y borrowed at 11.8% fixed ( saving of 0.2%).
Answer:
Clarissa needs to fund the growing perpetuity by $166666.67
Explanation:
A perpetuity is an investment that will give a future series of infinite payments so if the perpetuity gives you a periodic growth rate then you find the difference between the interest rate and the growth rate then use the perpetuity formula which is:
Pv = C/(i-g)
where Pv is the present value of the perpetuity which will be the initial investment.
C is the periodic payments that will be received in future in this case $5000
i is the interest rate given for the perpetuity which is 8%
g is the growth rate per fixed period which is 5%
thereafter we substitute on the above mentioned formula:
Pv= $5000/(8%-5%) then compute
Pv = $166666.67 which will be the initial investment for Clarissa to be paid $5000 per year until she dies.
There are two different options I would give her:
1) You can use your credit card now if you know that within the 30 days of purchasing the T.V. (or how ever many days until interest accrues if sooner) you will have enough money to properly pay your card off so that you aren't charged interest. Once you add interest, the T.V. becomes a much larger expense overtime due to paying the interest. Also, if it's a card that you get cash back for, you can 'make money' essential on your purchase because you'll get cash back.
2) Wait for the raise, what if the raise doesn't happen? What if something unexpected happens and you've used all your funds for a T.V. that isn't a necessity. There are so many reason to wait and pay cash for something. In this situation I probably wouldn't use all of my appropriated emergency funds for a T.V. and save the extra money from the raise.
