Currently, Forever Flowers Inc. has a capital structure consisting of 20% debt and 80% equity. Forever's debt currently has an 7% yield to maturity. The risk-free rate (rRF) is 3%, and the market risk premium (rM - rRF) is 8%. Using the CAPM, Forever estimates that its cost of equity is currently 13.5%. The company has a 40% tax rate. What is Forever's current WACC

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

WACC = 11.6%

Explanation:

The weighted average cost of capital (WACC) is the average cost of all the various sources of long-term finance used by a business weighted according to the proportion which each source of finance bears to the the entire pool of fund.

To calculate the weighted average cost of capital, follow the steps below:  

Step 1: Calculate cost of individual source of finance

Cost of Equity= 13.5%  

After-tax cost of debt:

= (1- T) × before-tax cost of debt  

= 7%× (1-0.4)= 4.2%  

Step 2 : calculate the proportion or weight of the individual source of finance . (This already given)

Equity = 80%  

Debt= 20%

Step 3:Work out weighted average cost of capital (WACC)

WACC = ( 13.5%× 80%) + ( 4.2%× 20%) = 11.64%  

WACC = 11.6%

An industrial park is being planned for a tract of land near the river. To prevent flood damage to the industrial buildings that will be built on this low-lying land, an earthen embankment can be constructed. The height of the embankment will be determined by an economic analysis of the costs and benefits. The following data have been gathered: Embankment Height Above Roadway (m) Initial Cost 2.0 $100,000 2.5 165,000 3.0 300,000 3.5 400,000 4.0 550,000 Flood Level Above Roadway (m) Average Frequency That Flood Level Will Exceed Height in Col. 1 2.0 Once in 3 years 2.5 Once in 8 years 3.0 Once in 25 years 3.5 Once in 50 years 4.0 Once in 100 years The embankment can be expected to last 50 years and will require no maintenance. Whenever the flood water flows over the embankment, $300,000 of damage occurs. Determine which of the five heights above the roadway should be selected. The interest rate is 12%. (50 points)

Twins graduate from college together and start their careers. Twin 1 invests $1500 at the end of each year for 10 years only (until age 33) in an account that earns 7%, compounded annually. Suppose that twin 2 waits until turning 40 to begin investing. How much must twin 2 put aside at the end of each year for the next 25 years in an account that earns 7% compounded annually in order to have the same amount as twin 1 at the end of these 25 years (when they turn 65)

Answers

Answer:

Annual investment= $2,855.71

Explanation:

First, we will determine the future value of the investment of Twin 1 at the end of the firsts 10 years.

Twin 1:

Annual investment= $1,500

Number of periods= 10 years

Interest rate= 7%

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= annual deposit

FV= {1,500*[(1.07^10) - 1]} / 0.07

FV= $20,724.67

Now, the value of the account of Twin 1 after 32 years (65 - 33), if he leaves the money to gain interest:

FV= PV*(1+i)^n

FV= 20,724.67*(1.07^32)

FV= $180,621.11

Finally, the annual deposit that Twin 2 must make to equal the amount earned by Twin 1:

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= annual deposit

Isolating A:

A= (FV*i)/{[(1+i)^n]-1}

A= (180,621.11*0.07) / [(1.07^25) - 1]

A= $2,855.71

Twin 2 must make an annual deposit of $2,855.71 to match the amount earned by Twin 1, which is the annual investment.

How do you calculate the Annual investment of Twin 2?

First, we'll calculate the future value of Twin 1's investment at the conclusion of the first ten years.

[tex]\text{Twin 1}:\\\text{Annual investment}= $1,500\\\text{Number of periods= 10 years}\\\text{Interest rate= 7} \text{percent}\\FV= {A\text{x}[(1+i)^n-1]}/i\\\text{A= annual deposit}FV= {1,500 \text{x} [(1.07^{10} ) - 1]} / 0.07FV= $20,724.67[/tex]

The following is the worth of Twin 1's account after 32 years (65 - 33), assuming he leaves the money to earn interest:

[tex]\text{FV= PV} \text{x}(1+i)^n\\FV= 20,724.67\text { x }(1.07^{32})\\FV= 180,621.11[/tex]

Finally, Twin 2 must make an annual deposit equivalent to the amount generated by Twin 1:

[tex]\text{FV}= {\text{A} \text{x}{[(1+i)^n-1]}/\text{i}\\\text{A= annual deposit}[/tex]

[tex]\text{Isolating A}:\\A= (FV \text{x} i)/{[(1+i)^n]-1}\\A= (180,621.11 \text{x} 0.07) / [(1.07^{25} ) - 1]\\A= 2,855.71[/tex]

Answer:

Under the retrospective approach to accounting for changes in accounting principles,

a journal is made to adjust the firm's Retained earnings balance to reflect the cumulative effect of the accounting principle change.

Explanation:

A change in an accounting principle refers to a change in the accounting method.  An example is using a different depreciation method (straight-line instead of double-declining method) or switching between Weighted-Average to LIFO inventory valuation method.  Where there is a change in accounting principle, the change is applied retrospectively to the earliest period when financial statements are presented.  The purpose is to ensure that the comparative financial statements reflect the new application of the accounting principle just as the current financial statements do.  However, this cannot be done if it were impractical.

The Dividend Valuation Model(DVM) is a technique used to value the worth of an asset. According to this model, the value of an asset is the sum of the present values of the future cash flows would that arise from the asset discounted at the required rate of return.

If dividend is expected to grow at a given rate , the value of a share is calculated using the formula below:

D0× (1+g)/Po × (1-F) + g

Do - dividend in the following year, K- requited rate of return , g- growth rate , F= Floatation cost in %

DATA:

D0- 3.68

g- 5%

P=67

K- ?

Po×(1-F)= 67-3.68=$63.32

Ke = 3.68× 1.05/ 63.32   + 0.05 =0.109

Cost of equity = 0.109× 100= 10.9%

Stock Y has a beta of 1.8 and an expected return of 18.2 percent. Stock Z has a beta of .8 and an expected return of 9.6 percent. If the risk-free rate is 5.2 percent and the market risk premium is 6.7 percent, the reward-to-risk ratios for Stocks Y and Z are and percent, respectively. Since the SML reward-to-risk is percent, Stock Y is and Stock Z is :__________. (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answers as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

Answers

Answer:

The reward-to-risk ratios for Stocks Y and Z are 7.22 and 5.50 percent, respectively. Since the SML reward-to-risk is 6.70 percent, Stock Y is undervalued and Stock Z is overvalued.

Explanation:

Market risk premium is 6.7%

Reward-to-risk ratio of Stock = (Expected return of the Stock - Risk-free rate) / Beta of the Stock

Using equation (1), we therefore have:

Reward-to-risk ratio of Stock Y = (18.2% - 5.2%) / 1.8 = 7.22%

Reward-to-risk ratio Stock Z = (9.6% - 5.2%) / 0.8 = 5.50%

Since the β of the market is one, it implies that SML reward-to-risk is 6.70 perecent.

Therefore, we have:

The reward-to-risk ratios for Stocks Y and Z are 7.22 and 5.50 percent, respectively. Since the SML reward-to-risk is 6.70 percent, Stock Y is undervalued and Stock Z is overvalued.

Name a product or a company that you are familiar with. Discuss how environmental forces (social, economic, technological, competitive, and regulatory) will impact that product/company over the next five years.

Answers

Answer:

The name of the product is Coke and this is a Pestel Analysis.

PESTEL is short for Political, Economic, Social, Technological, Environmental, and Legal. All representing factors that can and will impact the operations of any business.

Explanation:

Coca-Cola is a global company with is in the business of providing refreshments to its customers by the sale of Soda or soft drinks. Because of the nature of the product, the industry in which they play is heavily regulated and they must use the best technology in order to stay relevant, competitive, and dominant in the market.  

 

Political factors

One of the regulators to whom Coca-cola must dance to its tune is the Food and Drugs Administration (FDA) a Federal Agency of the Department of Health and Human Services in the US. All Coca-cola product must meet their requirements as stipulated by law. If the laws enforced by FDA changes it could adversely affect the distribution, taxes, accounting, and all other operations of Coca-Cola.  

 

Economical factors

Some economic factors that may affect a business like Coca-cola are:

Interest rates, exchange rates, recession, Inflation, Taxes, Demand / Supply.

One critical factor in this group which the company must be on the lookout for always is changes in taste and demand. Consumers are making a shift globally towards more healthy alternatives to soda. This is because, as the world becomes more sedentary due to shifts in global economic patterns as induced by the pandemic, risk factors relating to health care on the increase. Hence consumers want to ensure that they cut down on foods and beverages that increase their predisposition to conditions such as obesity, cancer, high blood pressure, etc.

To stay relevant and competitive, the company has to seek out healthy drinks that speak to all the various localities (which are over 200 countries).

Social factors

Examples of social factors that can affect a business are:

e-commerce adaptation, purchasing habits, ease of adoption of technology, changes in customer service expectation, the education level of consumers.

The purchasing habit for Coca-cola is changing in lots of countries. People are becoming more predisposed to buying products online. How will that affect the demand for the company's products? Will it increase as online food orders increase? can the company position itself to take advantage of the trend? If yes, then it is making taking advantage of its changing social environment.

Technological factors

Adoption of best-in-class machinery is one of the strategies that has enabled Coca-Cola to achieve higher quality and quantity of its products. Speed of delivery, processes that are optimized for the lowest costs and highest outputs are now being made possible with advances in technology. Coca-cola is taking advantage of technology especially in regions such as Europe.  

Legal factors

Product liability, third-party liability, employer-employee (labor) relations, compliance, and regulatory factors are all within the scope of Coca-Cola's legal universe.  Constantly managing this space of its operations will keep it from experiencing avoidable erosion of its bottom line and brand equity.

Environmental factors

Companies no longer compete on the basis of profitability alone. Global companies are the target of onslaughts from those who campaign against the degradation of the environment. One way they do so is to discourage the consumption of the goods of a company whose activities are harming the environment.

So companies all over the world are not competing based on the triple bottom line criteria: People, Planet, Profit.

This answers the questions whether

Coca-cola is in compliance with international best practices as far as labor law is concerned;How does the company handle its effluents and wastes? is it just discharging them into the earth without treatment? or is it creatively converting them into economic products? how responsible is the company socially?then of course there is the issue of keeping the books in the black

The Cole Beverage Company (CBC) has a soft drink product that has a constant annual demand of 3,600 cases per year. A case of this soft drink product from Supplier A costs CBC $4 and carrying cost is charged at 25% of purchase cost (that is, $1 per case per year). Ordering costs are estimated to be $32 per order placed. Based on these information, the Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) for this soft drink product is a. 480 b. 240 c. 120 d. Not enough information given to answer this question

Answers

Answer:

a. 480

Explanation:

The computation of the economic order quantity is given below:

[tex]EOQ = \sqrt{\frac{2\times annual \ demand \times ordering\ cost }{carrying \ cost}} \\\\= \sqrt{\frac{2\times 3600\times \$32}{\$1} }[/tex]

= 480 units

The carrying cost could be determined below:

= $4 × 25%

= $1

hence, the carrying cost is $1

Therefore the economic order quantity is 480

Thus, the correct option is a.

The Elmo Company purchased equipment on January 1, Year 1 at a cost of $26,000. The equipment was estimated to last for 8 years and have a salvage value of $2,000. At the end of Year 5, it was determined that the total useful life of the equipment was really 11 years, and the salvage value was expected to remain unchanged. The firm uses the straight-line method of depreciation.
a. What amount of depreciation was recorded for the equipment in year 1?
b. What was the amount of the depreciation expense recorded in year 6?

Answers

Answer:

The Elmo Company

a. The amount of the depreciation expense recorded in year 1 = $3,000

b. The amount of the depreciation expense recorded in year 6 = $1,500

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Cost of equipment on January 1, Year 1 = $26,000

Estimated useful life = 8 years

Salvage value = $2,000

Depreciable amount = $24,000 ($26,000 - 2,000)

Annual depreciation expense = $3,000 ($24,000/8)

Accumulated depreciation after 5 years = $15,000 ($3,000 * 5)

Net book value after 5 years = $11,000

Sixth year appraisals:

Remaining useful life = 6 years

Salvage value = unchanged at $2,000

Depreciable value = $9,000 ($11,000 - 2,000)

Annual depreciation expense = $1,500 ($9,000/6)

Why is efficiency an important economic goal?

Answers

Explanation:

Efficiency reduces hunger and malnutrition because goods are transported farther and quicker. Also, advances in efficiency allow greater productivity in a shorter amount of time. Efficiency is an important attribute because all inputs are scarce.

Efficiency is an important Economic goal because it reduces the cost of production, gives highest output with less input and aims at minimum wastage of resources which in return reduces cost of goods and services for consumers.

What is Efficiency?

Efficiency is the maximum level of performance that requires the fewest inputs and produces the greatest amount of output.

Economic efficiency is the distribution or allocation of all goods and factors of production in an economy to their most valued uses while reducing or eliminating waste.

In an article about the financial problems of USA Today, Newsweek reported that the paper was losing about $20 million a year. A Wall Street analyst said that the paper should raise its price from 50 cents to 75 cents, which he estimated would bring in an additional $65 million a year. The paper's publisher rejected the idea, saying that circulation could drop sharply after a price increase, citing The Wall Street Journal's experience after it increased its price to 75 cents. What implicit assumptions are the publisher and the analyst making about price elasticity

Answers

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

The implicit assumptions that is masde by the publisher is that price elasticity is elastic. This implies that a change in price has a large impact on the quantity demanded. In this case, an increase in price will bring about a large reduction in demanded.

On the other hand, the analyst believee the price elasticity is inelastic. This means price change will have a little or no change in the quantity demanded.

You are conducting a discounted cash flow analysis (DCF). You purchased an asset for $400,000 at time point zero. The asset was depreciating using straight line depreciation over a ten year schedule. When you initially placed the asset into service, you expected the asset to have a disposal / salvage value of $0. At the end of year seven the project is suddenly cancelled due to a change in technology and the asset is sold in the open market for $110,000. Prior to this transaction, the firm was forecasted to earn $1,000,000 profit after tax in year seven and the tax rate for the firm is 20%. What is the cash flow, in time period seven, as a result of this transaction

Answers

Answer: $112000

Explanation:

First, we calculate the book value in year 7 which will be:

= Depreciation × Balance life

= $400,000 × 3/10

= $120,000

Then, the cash flow as a result of the transaction will be:

= Asset sale - (Asset - Book value) × Tax rate

= 110000 - [(110000 - 120000) × 20%]

= 110000 - (-2000)

= 110000 + 2000

= 112000

Cash flow is the determination of inflow and outflow of cash due to business or non-business activities. The cash flow for a particular year is determined by preparing the cash flow statement. There are two methods for cash flow statements those are: direct and indirect methods.

The cash flow for the transaction is $112,000

Computation:

The cash flow in the time period of seven years is determined as follows:

[tex]\begin{aligned}\text{Cash Flow}&=\text{Sale Value of Asset}-[\left(\text{Asset-Book Value}\right)\times\text{Tax Rate}]\\&=\$110,000-[\left(\$110,000-\$120,000 \right )\times20\%]\\&=\$110,000-\left(-\$2,000 \right )\\&=\$112,000 \end{aligned}[/tex]

Working  Note:

The calculation of the book value of the asset at the 7th year:

[tex]\begin{aligned}\text{Book Value}&=\text{Depreciation}\times\dfrac{\text{Remaining Life of Asset}}{\text{Estimate Useful Life of the Asset}}\\&=\$400,000\times\dfrac{3}{10}\\&=\$120,000\end{aligned}[/tex]
