Calculate the after-tax cost of debt using following bond information. A four year bond has a 7 percent coupon rate and a $1000 face value. If the market value of the bond is $788, assuming that the bond makes annual coupon payments and the tax rate is 35%.
a. 7.16 %
b. 14.32 %
c. 12.12 %
d. 9.31 %
e. 5.01 %
Answer:
d. 9.31 %
Explanation:
in order to solve this question you cannot use the approximate yield to maturity since it will yield an approximation, but not an exact answer:
approximate YTM = {70 + [(1,000 - 788)/4]} / [(1,000 - 788)/2] = 13.76%
after tax cost of debt = 13.76% x 0.65 = 8.94%, but that is not an option
we must determine the exact yield to maturity which is determined by the following formula:
$788 = $70/(1 + i) + $70/(1 + i)² + $70/(1 + i)³ + $1,070/(1 + i)⁴
the simplest way to solve this is by using a financial calculator since the math is complicated. The exact yield to maturity = 14.324%
after tax cost of debt = 14.324% x (1 - tax rate) = 14.324% x 0.65 = 9.31%
A few years ago the British government was considering retiring, or buying back from investors, some outstanding consols that had annual coupons of . A consol is:______
a. a coupon bond that pays a variable coupon rate and does not mature.
b. a coupon bond that pays a fixed coupon rate and has a fixed maturity date.
c. a coupon bond that pays a variable coupon and has a fixed maturity date.
d. a coupon bond that pays a fixed coupon rate and does not mature.
If the yield to maturity on other long-term British government bonds was 2.0%, the price the British government is likely to offer investors is £ _________
Answer: d. coupon bond that pays a fixed coupon rate and does not mature.
$3250
Explanation:
A consol is a coupon bond that pays a fixed coupon rate and does not mature. Consols are consolidated annuities that are perpetual. A steady amount of interest is paid for a consol even though they're not redeemable
Price of a consol will be gotten as fixed coupon amount divided by the rate of return. Let's assume that the fixed coupon amount is $65, then the price will be:
= 65/2%
= $3250
You can receive 400,000 five years from today or 1,000,000 thirty years from today. what interest rate makes them equivalent?
Answer:
3.73%
Explanation:
The computation of the rate of interest that makes the equivalent is shown below:
As we know that
Present value=Cash flow × Present value discounting factor ( interest rate% , time period)
Let us assume the interest rate be x
where,
Present value of $400,000 is
= $400,000 ÷ 1.0x ^5
And,
Present value of $1,000,000 be
= $1,000,000 ÷ 1.0x^30
Now eqaute these two equations
$400,000 ÷ 1.0x^5 = $1,000,000 ÷ 1.0x^30
(1.0x^30) ÷ (1.0x^5) = $1,000,000 ÷ $400,000
1.0x^(30 - 5)=2.5
1.0x^25=2.5
1.0x = (2.5)^(1 ÷ 25)
x =1.03733158 - 1
= 3.73%

The risk free rate is 4%, and the required return on the market is 12%. 1. What is the required return on an asset A with a beta of 1.5?2. What is the reward/risk ratio?3. What is the required return on a portfolio consisting of 40% of the asset above and the rest in an asset with an average amount of systematic risk?
Answer:
required return 16%
risk/reward 8%
portfolio return 13.60%
Explanation:
Required return=risk-free rate+beta*(market return-risk free rate)
risk-free rate=4%
beta=1.5
market return=12%
required return=4%+1.5*(12%-4%)=16.00%
Reward/risk ratio=market return-risk free rate
reward/risk ratio=12%-4%=8%
Portfolio return=weight of the asset* required return on asset+weight of the rest of the portfolio*market return
weight of the asset=40%
required return=16%
weight of the rest of the portfolio=1-40%=60%
market return=12%
portfolio return=(40%*16%)+(60%*12%)=13.60%
The risk-free rate is termed as the return that is associated with the investment with zero or no risk. It represents the number of investors that would expect a higher return from no-risk investment over a specified period of time.
The answers are:
required return 16%
risk/reward 8%
portfolio return 13.60%
[tex]\begin{aligned}\text{Required return}=\text{risk-free rate}+\text{beta}\times(\text{market return-risk free rate})\end{aligned}[/tex]

Answer:
The after-tax cost of debt is 8.22%
Explanation:
The cost of debt is the actual cost of a business to raise debt finance. Yield to maturity is the cost of debt of a bond.
calculate the YTM as follow
Coupon = $1000 x 7.25% x 6/12 = $36.25
Number of periods = 9 yeas x 12/6 = 18 periods
Use the financial calculator as below
2nd I/Y 2, FV 1000, PMT 36.25, PV -754.08, N 18, CPT I/Y
Yield to maturity = 11.7499%
Now calculate the after tax YTM
YTM ( after tax ) = 11.7499% x ( 1 - 30% )
YTM ( after tax ) = 8.22%
An increase in income:________. A. changes relative prices of goods the consumer buys. B. shifts the budget constraint outward. C. shifts the budget constraint inward. D. leads to the substitution effect.
Answer: B. shifts the budget constraint outward
Explanation:
An increase in the income of a consumer will bring about an outward shift of the budget constraint. This is because when the income of a consumer rises, such consumer can buy more goods and services.
Also, a decrease in income will result into an inward shift of the budget constraint. This is because lesser goods are purchased.
Mary's Baskets Company expects to manufacture and sell 30,000 baskets in 2019 for $5 each. There are 4,000 baskets in beginning finished goods inventory with target ending inventory of 9.000 baskets. The company keeps no work-in- process inventory. What amount of sales revenue will be reported on the 2019 budgeted income statement? A) $175,000 B) $150,000 C) $125,000 D) $55,000
Answer:
C $125,000
Explanation:
With regards to the above information, we know that the beginning and ending target inventory is the same, hence the units sold by Mary's baskets will remain at 30,000.
Sales in unit = Opening inventory in units + Production - Closing inventory
Sales in unit = 4,000 + 30,000 - 9,000
Sales in unit = 25,000
We do know that revenue is a function of sales multiplied by the selling price, which is given as $5 each.
Sales revenue = Sales in unit × Selling price
Sales revenue = 25,000 × $5
Sales revenue = $125,000
Therefore, the amount of sale revenue that would be reported on the 2019 budget income statement is $125,000

Which type of supply chain collaboration includes collaborative processes across the supply chain using a set of processes and technology models including a joint business plan, sales forecasting, order planning and forecasting, order generation, and order fulfillment?
Answer:
Collaborative Planning, Forecasting and Replenishment (CPFR)
Explanation:
Supply chain management can be defined as the effective and efficient management of the flow of goods and services as well as all of the production processes involved in the transformation of raw materials into finished products that meet the insatiable want and need of the consumers. Generally, the supply chain management involves all the activities associated with planning, execution and supply of finished goods and services to the consumers.
The fundamental principle of supply chain management is basically a collaboration between multiple firms. These multiple firms include a company that is saddled with the responsibility of manufacturing, a wholesaler, and a retailer who typically sells the products to the customers or consumers.
Basically, these three (3) firms or individuals are required to collaborate with each other so as to meet the needs of the customers in a timely manner or fashion and at a fair price too.
Collaborative Planning, Forecasting and Replenishment (CPFR) is a type of supply chain collaboration which includes collaborative processes across the supply chain using a set of processes and technology models including a joint business plan, sales forecasting, order planning and forecasting, order generation, and order fulfillment.
In a local NFP elementary school’s statement of cash flows, a contribution restricted for use on a new building project would be reported as:_________.A. A capital and related financing activity. B. A financing activity. C. An investing activity. D. An operating activity.
Answer: B. A financing activity.
Explanation:
A Financing activity is one that involves the provision of capital to the company or project being built which is why long term liabilities and equity will fall under this category.
This contribution that has been earmarked for use on the construction of a new building will therefore be treated as a financing activity because it represents capital being provided for the elementary school.

Using emails to communicate asynchronously is not a good idea for all of the reasons below except ________.
a) email threads are organized.
b) too much freedom.
c) difficult to find particular emails.
d) it is easy to hide from email.
e) difficulty in finding attachments.
Answer:
The correct answer is A. Using emails to communicate asynchronously is not a good idea for all of the reasons below except email threads are organized.
Explanation:
Communication via email is very efficient for exchanging non-instantaneous messages, that is, in those in which information is transmitted that does not require constant exchange, such as a chat or a phone call. Therefore, in the case of asynchronous communication, the exchange of emails can cause some part of the communication to be lost, or the messages may be misinterpreted because they are out of order. This provided that the thread of the messages is not ordered, otherwise this misunderstanding could be avoided.
Paunch Burger has a beta of 1.2 and just paid a dividend of $2.30 that is expected to grow at 3.2%. If the risk-free rate is 3% and the market risk premium is 6%, what should be the price of the stock
Answer:
P0 = $33.9085 rounded off to $33.91
Explanation:
Using the constant growth model of dividend discount model, we can calculate the price of the stock today. The DDM values a stock based on the present value of the expected future dividends from the stock. The formula for price today under this model is,
P0 = D0 * (1+g) / (r - g)
Where,
D0 is the dividend paid recently
D0 * (1+g) is dividend expected for the next period /year
g is the growth rate
r is the required rate of return or cost of equity
First we need to calculate the required rate of return or r using the CAPM.
Using the CAPM, we can calculate the required/expected rate of return on a stock. This is the minimum return required by the investors to invest in a stock based on its systematic risk, the market's risk premium and the risk free rate.
The formula for required rate of return under CAPM is,
r = rRF + Beta * rpM
Where,
rRF is the risk free rate
rpM is the market risk premium
r = 0.03 + 1.2 * 0.06
r = 0.102 or 10.2%
Now using the formula for P0 under the constant dividend growth model,
P0 = 2.3 * (1+0.032) / (0.102 - 0.032)
P0 = $33.9085 rounded off to $33.91
