Pacific Inc. has EBIT of $50m per year in perpetuity. The cost of capital of unlevered firm is 10%. Pacific's current market values of debt and equity are $100mm and $260mm respectively. Its corporate tax rate is 30%. What is the decrease in the firm's value due to expected financial distress costs?
Answer:
$20 mm
Explanation:
Calculation for What is the decrease in the firm's value due to expected financial distress costs
First step is to calculate the Value of unlevered firm using this formula
Value of unlevered firm = EBIT x (1 - tax) / Cots of capital
Let plug in the formula
Value of unlevered firm = 50 x (1 - 30%) / 10%
Value of unlevered firm= $350 mm
Now let calculate expected financial distress costs
Using this formula
Market Value of equity = Value of unlevered firm + Tax shield - Debt - Expected Financial Distress
Let plug in the formula
260mm= 350 mm+ 30% x 100mm - 100mm - Expected Financial Distress
260mm= 350 mm+ 30mm - 100mm - Expected Financial Distress
260mm= 280mm-Expected Financial Distress
Expected Financial Distress = $20 mm
Therefore the decrease in the firm's value due to expected financial distress costs will be $20 mm

A stock had returns of 5.10%, 31.60%, and -21.20% in each of the past three years. Over the past four years, the arithmetic average annual return for the stock was 4.75%. What was the geometric annual return for the stock over the past four years?a. 2.91% (plus or minus 0.02 percentage points)b. 3.06% (plus or minus 0.02 percentage points)c. 3.37% (plus or minus 0.02 percentage points)d. 5.07% (plus or minus 0.02 percentage points)e. None of the above is within 0.02 percentage points of the correct answer
Answer:
The correct option is c. 3.37% (plus or minus 0.02 percentage points).
Explanation:
Note that since we are asked to find the geometric annual return for the stock over the past four years but we are only given the stock returns for each of the past three years, this implies that the stock return to be used for the first year of the past four years will be the arithmetic average annual return for the stock over the past four years.
Therefore, the geometric annual return for the stock over the past four years can now be computed using the following formula:
Geometric average return = {[(1 + r1) * (1 + r2) * (1 + r3) * (1 + r4)]^(1/4)} - 1 ....... (1)
Where;
r1 = Stock return in year 1 = arithmetic average annual return = 4.75%, or 0.0475
r2 = Stock return in year 2 = 5.10%, or 0.0510
r3 = Stock return in year 3 = 31.60%, or 0.3160
r4 = Stock return in year 4 = -21.20%, or -0.2120
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
Geometric average return = {[(1 + 0.0475) * (1 + 0.0510) * (1 + 0.3160) * (1 - 0.2120)]^(1/4)} - 1
Geometric average return = 1.14166543988^(1/4) - 1
Geometric average return = 1.03367666813442 - 1
Geometric average return = 0.03367666813442, or 3.367666813442%
Rounding to 2 decimal places, we have:
Geometric average return = 3.37%
Therefore, the correct option is c. 3.37% (plus or minus 0.02 percentage points).
You have been managing a $5 million portfolio that has a beta of 1.05 and a required rate of return of 9.775%. The current risk-free rate is 4%. Assume that you receive another $500,000. If you invest the money in a stock with a beta of 0.75, what will be the required return on your $5.5 million portfolio
Answer:
9.62%
Explanation:
Re = Rf + (B x Rp)
Re = cost of equity = 9.775%
Rf = risk free rate = 4%
B = beta = 1.05
Rp = risk premium = ?
Rp = (Re - Rf) B = (9.775% - 4%)/1.05 = 5.5%
Re portfolio = Rf + {Rp x [(B₁ x $5/$5.5) + (B₂ x $0.5/$5.5)]}
Re portfolio = 4% + {5.5% x [(1.05 x $5/$5.5) + (0.75 x $0.5/$5.5)]}
Re portfolio = 4% + {5.5% x [0.9545 + 0.0682]}
Re portfolio = 4% + 5.6249% = 9.62%

Flagstaff Company has budgeted July production of 8,200 units. Variable factory overhead is $1.2 per unit. Budgeted fixed factory overhead is $20,500, which includes $3,300 of factory equipment depreciation. Compute the total budgeted overhead for July.
Answer:
Allocated MOH= $30,340
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Flagstaff Company has budgeted July production of 8,200 units. Variable factory overhead is $1.2 per unit.
Budgeted fixed factory overhead is $20,500
To calculate the allocated overhead, we need to use the following formula:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Allocated MOH= (1.2*8,200) + 20,500
Allocated MOH= $30,340
Suppose it takes $1.05 to buy 1 euro, the U.S. price level is 120, and the European price level is 125. A. Calculate the real exchange rate for the U.S. against the euro.B. Suppose the U.S. price level rises to 130. Calculate the real exchange rate again and explain why it has risen or fallen.
Answer:
0.914
0.990
Explanation:
Real Exchange rate= e * P/P
where
e = nominal exchange rate
P = Domestic Price Level
P* = Domestic Price Level
On that basis, we calculate that
a.)
$1/$1.05 = 0.9523
0.9523 * 120/125 =
0.9523 * 0.96 =
0.914
b)
$1/$1.05 = 0.9523
0.9523 * 130/125 =
0.9523 * 1.04 =
0.990
Also, there is going to be a change in the domestic price level. This change will then go on to affect the real exchange rate
Elizabeth Brown is looking to invest in a three-year bond that makes semi-annual coupon payments at a rate of 5.675 percent. If these bonds have a market price of $977.11, what yield to maturity can she expect to earn?
Answer:
The yield to maturity is 6.53%
Explanation:
The computation of the yield to maturity is shown below:
Given that
Assume future value be $1,000
The Present value is $977.11
PMT = $1,000 × 5.675% ÷ 2 = $28.375
NPER = 3 × 2 = 6
The formula is given below:
= RATE(NPER;PMT;-PV;FV;TYPE)
The present values comes in negative
After applying the above formula, the yield to maturity is
= 3.263% × 2
= 6.53%
Assuming that the standard fixed overhead rate is based on full capacity, the cost of available but unused productive capacity is indicated by the: _________
a. factory overhead cost controllable variance
b. factory overhead cost volume variance
c. factory overhead direct labor variance
d. standard capacity utlization variance
Answer:
B)factory overhead cost volume variance
Explanation:
From the question, there was an an assumption that the standard fixed overhead rate is based on full capacity, in this case the cost of available but unused productive capacity is indicated by the factory overhead cost volume variance. Factory overhead cost volume variance can be regarded as the difference that exist between the fixed overhead that is associated to those good/ service from the firm on production volume and the budgeted amount that is associated to goods) services that are been produced. fixed overhead costs
could be Factory rent and others.
Parkway Void Co. issued 16-year bonds two years ago at a coupon rate of 8.5 percent. The bonds make semiannual payments. If these bonds currently sell for 109 percent of par value, what is the YTM? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Answer:
The annual YTM will be = 0.07518796992 or 7.518796992% rounded off to 7.52%
Explanation:
The yield to maturity or YTM is the yield or return that an investor can earn on the bond if the bond is purchased today and is held till the bond matures. The formula to calculate the Yield to maturity of a bond is as follows,
YTM = [ ( C + (F - P / n)) / (F + P / 2) ]
Where,
C is the coupon payment
F is the Face value of the bond
P is the current value of the bond
n is the number of years to maturity
Lets assume the par value is 1000.
Current value = 1000 * 109% = 1090
Coupon payment = 1000 * 0.085 * 6/12 = 42.5
Number of periods remaining till maturity = 14 * 2 = 28
semi annual YTM = [ (42.5 + (1000 - 1090 / 28)) / (1000 + 1090 / 2)
semi annual YTM = 0.03759398496 or 3.759398496% rounded off to 3.76%
The annual YTM will be = 0.03759398496 * 2 = 0.07518796992 or 7.518796992% rounded off to 7.52%

The computation of the current price is shown below:
Current price is
= Current year dividend ÷ (Required rate of return - growth rate)
= ($2.55 × (1 + 0.039) ÷ (10.4% - 3.9%)
= $2.6495 ÷ (0.104 - 0.039)
= $2.6495 ÷ 0.065
= $40.76
Hence, the current price of the stock is $40.76

The cost that varies depending on the values of the decision variables is a: ____________
a. dual cost.
b. sunk cost.
c. relevant cost.
d. reduced cost.
Answer:
The cost that varies depending on the values of the decision variables is a: ____________
c. relevant cost.
Explanation:
The relevant cost affects a decision outcome. It is not like the sunk cost, which is fixed in total, no matter the decision being made. A relevant cost is also known as a differential or incremental cost, because it makes a different under some decision alternatives. Relevant costs are important to consider whenever a business entity is making a buy or make decision. Relevant costs have their unit costs fixed while the total costs vary according to the alternatives.
