Answer: The $4.05 market price
Explanation: Air-tite can buy or sell Hydrol at $4.05. If they decide to accept the order, there has to be a higher return on the use of Hydrol in the return than they would get from selling Hydrol as is.
There may also be an opportunity cost to using the product for this special order if there is an order that would yield higher returns for the use of Hydrol.
The quantity that would remain after making the special order does not have any impact on the decision making process, as they are considering just one order that requires Hydrol.
The purchase price is not relevant as they cannot purchase Hydrol at that price in the present. The total quantity is not relevant either as they have enough for the order.
C. prototyping, does it makes sense now.
Answer:
Existing Equity = 20 million
Existing debt = 60 million
Total capital = 20 million + 60 million = 80 million
a. Given company issued 30 million of equity to retire debt
Equity after raise = $20 million + $30 million = $50 million
Debt = $60 million - $30 million = $30 million
Total capital size remain at $80 million
Capital structure, Equity = $50 million/$80 million = 0.625 = 62.50%
Debt = (1-0.625) = 0.375 = 37.50%
b. The market would welcome the new issue as the risk of the firm would be reduced.
Answer:
The expected return on the portfolio is:
10.31% ($3,331.40)
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Portfolio investments: Expected Returns % Expected Returns $
Stock M = $13,400 8.50% $1,139
Stock N = $18,900 11.60% $2,192.40
Total $32,300 10.31% $3,331.40
Total expected returns in percentage is Expected Returns $/Total Investments * 100
= $3,331.40/$32,300 * 100
= 10.31%
b) The expected returns on the portfolio is derived by calculating the expected returns for each investment and summing up. Then dividing the expected portfolio returns by the portfolio investment. This yields 10.31% percentage value.
