The total market value of the equity of ITM is $6 million, and the total value of its debt is $4

timofeeve [1]

Answer:

a. The required rate of return on Okefenokee stock is 16%.

b. WACC = 10.56%.

c. Estimate the discount rate for an expansion of the company's present business.

It should be the same as the WACC = 10.56%

d. The required rate of return on Okefenokee's new venture is Ke = 18 %.

Explanation:

Here the given is,

E = $6 million, D = $4 million, Beta = 1.2,

Rmp = the expected risk premium on the market =10%.

Rf = The Treasury bill rate = 4%

a. The required rate of return on Okefenokee stock,

$Ke = Rf + Beta \times Rmp = 4 + 1.2 \times 10 = 16%$ %.

b. Tax rate, T = 40%

The proportion of debt = $Wd = D / (D + E) = 4 / (6 + 4) = 0.4$

Proportion of equity, We = 1 - Wd = 1 - 0.4 = 0.6

Cost of debt, Kd = Risk-free rate as debt is free of default = 4%

$WACC = Wd \times Kd \times (1 - T) + We\times Ke\\\\ = 0.4 \times4\times (1 - 40) + 0.6 \times 16\\\\ = 10.56%$

WACC = 10.56%.

c. Estimate the discount rate for an expansion of the company's present business.

It should be the same as the WACC = 10.56%

d. Suppose the company wants to diversify into the manufacture of rose-colored glasses. The beta of optical manufacturers with no debt outstanding is 1.4. What is the required rate of return on Okefenokee's new venture? (You should assume that the risky project will not enable the firm to issue an additional debt)

$Ke = Rf + Beta \times Rmp\\\\Ke = 4 + 1.4 \times 10 = 18%$

Ke = 18 %.

polet [3.4K]

Answer:

The correct answer is B. personalization.

Explanation:

At present, consumers no longer like the idea of being seen as simple numbers by brands and companies, this implies that those who seek to reach these individuals should work harder to change the way they relate and direct to this, and one of the most effective methods today is through personalization, which implies a better understanding of consumers to become more relevant to them. Salesforce notes that by 2021, 51 percent of consumers would be waiting for companies to anticipate their needs and make relevant suggestions before a contact is established.

Therefore, we can talk about personalization as an increasing tactic, which is being well perceived by businesses and consumers. Particularly in the case of business, the benefits have been significant, Monetate notes that 79 percent of organizations that exceed their revenue goals have a documented personalization strategy.

Consider a risky portfolio. The end-of-year cash flow derived from the portfolio will be either $50,000 or $150,000, with equal

kvv77 [185]

Answer:

A. $86,956.52

B. 15%

C.$83,333.33

Explanation:

a) Calculation for how much will you be willing to pay for the portfolio

First step is to calculate the required rate of return on the portfolio using this formula

The required rate of return on the portfolio= Risk Free Return+Risk Premium

Let plug in the formula

The required rate of return on the portfolio=5%+10%

The required rate of return on the portfolio=15%

Second step is to calculate the Expected value of the portfolio

Expected value of the portfolio= 0.5*50,000+0.5*150,000

Expected value of the portfolio =$100,000

Assuming x is the amount you will be willing to pay for the portfolio which means that:

x*(1+15%)=100,000 OR x= $86,956.52

Therefore You would be willing to pay $86,956.52 for the portfolio.

b) Calculation for What will the expected rate of return on the portfolio be

Expected return on the portfolio= (100,000-86,956.52)/86,956.52

Expected return on the portfolio=15%

Therefore the Expected return on the portfolio will be 15%

c) Calculation for What is the price you will be willing to pay now

In a situation where the risk premium is 15%, which means that the required rate of return will be

Required rate of return=5%+15%

Required rate of return=20%

Therefore the price you will be willing to pay= 100,000/(1+20%)

Price=$83,333.33
