If Marriott used a single corporate hurdle rate for evaluating investment opportunities in each of its lines of business, what w

jolli1 [7]3 years ago

Answer:

Explanation:

If a company(Marriott in this case) uses a single hurdle rate to decide whether an investment should be undertaken or not, some projects that need to be accepted would end up being rejected and vice versa. For example,

if Marriott's hurdle rate is 10% and it's evaluating

project A with a 15% cost of capital &

project B with a 6% cost of capital .

Evaluation:

Project A would probably lead to a negative NPV because the cost of capital is higher (meaning it is riskier than the firm) hence could be rejected, but using the company hurdle rate of 10% to evaluate it could make its NPV positive. This would ignore the actual additional risk of the project.

Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

c.12%

Explanation:

PVF of  12% for 6 years is 4.11

PVFof 11% for 6 years is 4.23

Present value of cash inflows, 12% = 7251*4.11

Present value of cash inflows, 12% = 29801.61

Present value of cash inflows, 11% = 7251*4.23

Present value of cash inflows, 11% = 30671.73

Internal rate of return = 11% + (30671.73 - 30000)/(30671.73-29801.61)

Internal rate of return = 11.7719969659%

Internal rate of return = 11.772%

Even though most corporate bonds in the United States make coupon payments semiannually, bonds issued elsewhere often have annua
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

Price of bond = $ 924.50

Explanation:

<em>The value of the bond is the present value(PV) of the future cash receipts expected from the bond. The value is equal to present values of interest payment plus the redemption value (RV).  </em>

Value of Bond = PV of interest + PV of RV  

The price of the bond can be worked out as follows:  

Step 1  

PV of interest payments  

annul interest payment = 6.4 % × 1,000 = 64

Annual yield = 7.5%

Total period to maturity (in years) =10

PV of interest =  

64 × (1- (1.075)^(-10)/)/0.075= 439.30

Step 2  

PV of Redemption Value  

= 1,000× (1.075)^(-10) =   485.19

Step 3

Price of bond  

439.30 + 485.19 =$924.49

Price of bond = $ 924.50
