Suppose two cities are considering tearing down their stadiums to build new ones. In one city, the old stadium cost $5 million t
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

These are the options for the question:

A. They should be more willing to tear down the $5 million stadium, because it cost less to build.

B. They should be more willing to tear down the $50 million stadium, because it cost more to build.

C. The cost to build the old stadium shouldn’t be considered.

And this is the correct answer:

A. They should be more willing to tear down the $5 million stadium, because it cost less to build.

Explanation:

City A will likely be more willing to tear down its old stadium because it costed $5 million to build. City B, on the other hand, will have to think twice because a stadium that costed $50 billion to build could have more value than it seems, or the City could simply not have enough money to build a better new stadium (something that would probably cost more than $50 billion to do).

Mays Corp. reported free cash flows for 2018 of $491 million and investment in operating capital of $321 million. Mays Corp. inc
Anon25 [30]

Answer: $975 million

Explanation:

Given the above details, we can solve for Earnings Before Tax and Interest with the following formula,

Operating Cash Flow = EBIT – Taxes on EBIT + Depreciation

Making EBIT the subject would turn it to be,

EBIT = Operating Cash Flow + Taxes on EBIT - Depreciation

We have all of the above except the EBIT and Operating Cash Flow.

Luckily we can solve for the Operating Cash Flow with the details given using,

Operating cash flow = Free Cash Flow + Investment in operating capital

Therefore,

= $491 million + $321 million

= $812 million

Operating cash flow is $812 million

Plugging it into the original formula we have,

EBIT = Operating Cash Flow + Taxes on EBIT - Depreciation

EBIT = $812 million + $309 million - $146 million

EBIT = $975 million

Earnings before Taxes and Interest is $975 million.

MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

WACC = 0.08085  or  8.085% rounded off to 8.09%

Option c is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The WACC or weighted average cost of capital is the cost of a firm's capital structure that can contain one or more of the following components, namely debt, preferred stock and common equity. The formula to calculate the WACC is as follows,

WACC = wD * rD * (1-tax rate)  +  wP * rP  +  wE * rE

Where,

  • w represents the weight of each component
  • D, P and E represents debt, preferred stock and common equity respectively
  • r represents the cost of each component

We first need to calculate the weight of each stock. We know the basic accounting equation is,

Assets = Debt + Equity

We know the debt to equity ratio is 3. Then total assets will be,

Assets = 3 + 1

Assets = 4

Using the CAPM equation, we can calculate the cost of equity.

r = risk free rate  +  Beta  *  Market risk premium

r = 0.03  +  1.5  *  0.09

r = 0.165  or  16.5%

WACC = 3/4  *  0.08  *  (1 - 0.34)  +  1/4  *  0.165

WACC = 0.08085  or  8.085% rounded off to 8.09%
