The Outlet needs to raise $3.2 million for an expansion project. The firm wants to raise this money by selling zero coupon bonds

Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

14,783.33 bonds

Explanation:

Given

Par value FV = $1000

n =20 * 2 =40

R= 7.80/2 = 3.90%

Price per bond:

price per bond : $PV = \frac{FV/}{(1+r)^n}$

$= \frac{000}{(1+0.039)^{40}}$

$= \frac{1000}{4.619786467}$

= 216.46

No. of bonds to be issued = $\frac{amount to raise}{ price per bond}$

$= \frac{3,200,000}{216.46}$

= 14,783.33 bonds

Two mutually exclusive projects have 3-year lives and a required rate of return of 10.5 percent. Project A costs $75,000 and has

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

Both projects should be rejected

Explanation:

The internal rate of return is the discount rate that equates the after tax cash flows from an investment to the amount invested.

IRR can be calculated using a financial calculator:

For project A,

Cash flow in year zero = $75,000

Cash flow in year one = $18,500

Cash flow in year two = $42,900

Cash flow in year three = $28,600

IRR = 9.12%

For project B,

Cash flow in year zero = $-72,000

Cash flow in year one = $22,000

Cash flow in year two = $38,000

Cash flow in year three = $26,500

IRR = 9.48%

The decision rule on if to invest or not is if IRR > r

For both investments IRR is less than rate of return

9.12% < 10.50%

9.48% < 10.50%

To find the IRR using a financial calacutor:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. After inputting all the cash flows, press the IRR button, and the compute button.
