Assume that you are an intern with the Brayton Company, and you have collected the following data: The yield on the company's outstanding bonds is 7.75%; its tax rate is 40%; the next expected dividend is $0.65 a share; the dividend is expected to grow at a constant rate of 6.00% a year; the price of the stock is $15.00 per share; the flotation cost for selling new shares is 10%, and the target capital structure is 45% debt and 55% common equity. What is the firm's WACC, assuming?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The firm's WACC will be "8.04%".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Yield of maturity,

= 7.75%

Rate of tax,

= 40%

Next year's dividend,

= $o.65

Growth,

= 6%

Share price,

= $15

Flotation cost,

= 10%

[tex]w_d=45 \ percent[/tex]

[tex]w_s=55 \ percent[/tex]

Now,

= [tex]r_d(1-Rate \ of \ tax)[/tex]

On substituting the values, we get

= [tex]7.75(1-0.40)[/tex]

= [tex]4.65 \ percent[/tex]

The [tex]r_e[/tex] will be:

= [tex]\frac{D1}{p}\times (1-F)+G[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{0.65}{15}\times (1-0.1)+6[/tex]

= [tex]4.81+6[/tex]

= [tex]10.81 \ percent[/tex]

hence,

The firm's WACC will be:

= [tex]w_d(r_d)(1-T)+w_s(r_s)[/tex]

= [tex]0.45\times 4.65+0.55\times 10.81[/tex]

= [tex]2.0925+5.9455[/tex]

= [tex]8.04[/tex]%

Tamarisk, Inc. purchased a delivery truck for $29,200 on January 1, 2020. The truck has an expected salvage value of $2,200, and is expected to be driven 100,000 miles over its estimated useful life of 8 years. Actual miles driven were 16,100 in 2020 and 12,800 in 2021.
1. Calculate depreciation expense per mile under units-of-activity method.
2. Compute depreciation expense for 2020 and 2021 using (1) the straight-line method, (2) the units-of-activity method, and (3) the double- declining-balance method.
3. Prepare the journal entry to record 2020 depreciation.
4. Assume that Marigold uses the straight-line method. Show how the truck would be reported in the December 31, 2020, balance sheet.

Answers

Answer:

1. Depreciation expense per mile = $0.27 per mile

2-1. The straight-line method

We have:

Depreciation expense for 2020 = $3,375

Depreciation expense for 2021 = $3,375

2-2. Units-of-activity method

We have:

Depreciation expense for 2020 = $4,347

Depreciation expense for 2021 = $3,456

2-3. The double-declining-balance method

We have:

Depreciation expense for 2020 = $7,300

Depreciation expense for 2021 = $5,475

3. See the journal entries below.

4. Net book value = $25,825

Explanation:

1. Calculate depreciation expense per mile under units-of-activity method.

Depreciation expense per mile = (Purchase price delivery truck - Expected salvage value) / Expected driven miles = ($29,200 - $2,200) / 100,000 = $0.27 per mile

2. Compute depreciation expense for 2020 and 2021 using (1) the straight-line method, (2) the units-of-activity method, and (3) the double- declining-balance method.

2-1. The straight-line method

Annual depreciation expense = (Purchase price of the delivery truck - Expected salvage value) / Estimated useful life = ($29,200 - $2,200) / 8 = $3,375

Therefore, we have:

Depreciation expense for 2020 = Annual depreciation expense = $3,375

Depreciation expense for 2021 = Annual depreciation expense = $3,375

2-2. Units-of-activity method

Depreciable amount = Purchase price of the delivery truck - Expected salvage value = $29,200 - $2,200 = $27,000

Therefore, we have:

Depreciation expense for 2020 = Depreciable amount * (Actual miles driven in 2020 / Expected driven miles) = $27,000 * (16,100 / 100,000) = $4,347

Depreciation expense for 2021 = Depreciable amount * (Actual miles driven in 2021 / Expected driven miles) = $27,000 * (12,800 / 100,000) = $3,456

2-3. The double-declining-balance method

Straight-line method depreciation rate = 1 / Estimated useful life = 1 / 8 = 0.1250, or 12.50%

Double-declining-balance method depreciation rate = Straight-line method depreciation rate * 2 = 12.50% * 2 = 25%

Therefore, we have:

Depreciation expense for 2020 = Purchase price of the delivery truck * Double-declining-balance method depreciation rate = $29,200 * 25% = $7,300

Depreciation expense for 2021 = (Purchase price of the delivery truck - Depreciation expense for 2020) * Double-declining-balance method depreciation rate = ($29,200 - $7,300) * 25% = $5,475

3. Prepare the journal entry to record 2020 depreciation.

The management of Penfold Corporation is considering the purchase of a machine that would cost $270,000, would last for 5 years, and would have no salvage value. The machine would reduce labor and other costs by $60,000 per year. The company requires a minimum pretax return of 12% on all investment projects. The net present value of the proposed project is closest to:______.
a. $(11,700).
b. $(53,700).
c. $(269,997).
d. $(113,700).

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is B.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Initial investment= $270,000

Cash flow= $60,000

Number of years= 5

Discount rate= 12%

To calculate the net present value (NPV), we need to use the following formula:

NPV= -Io + ∑[Cf/(1+i)^n]

∑[Cf/(1+i)^n]:

Cf1= 60,000/1.12= 53,571.43

Cf2= 60,000/1.12^2= 47,831.63

.....

Cf5= 60,000/1.12^5= 34,045.61

∑[Cf/(1+i)^n]= 216,286.57

Now, the NPV:

NPV= -270,000 + 216,286.57

NPV= -53,713.43

Boenisch Corporation produces and sells a single product with the following characteristics: The company is currently selling 8,000 units per month. Fixed expenses are $406,000 per month. Management is considering using a new component that would increase the unit variable cost by $3. Since the new component would increase the features of the company's product, the marketing manager predicts that monthly sales would increase by 400 units. What should be the overall effect on the company's monthly net operating income of this change

Answers

Answer: Increase by $2,000

Explanation:

Current net operating income is:

= Contribution margin - Fixed costs

= (68 * 8,000) - 406,000

= $138,000

If component is added, Variable cost increases by $3 to $105. New contribution margin is:

= 170 - 105

= $65

Units sold increases by 400 to 8,400.

Net operating income becomes:

= (65 * 8,400) - 406,000

= $140,000

Net operating income increased by:

= 140,000 - 138,000

= $2,000
