For managerial purposes, i.e., making decisions regarding the firm's operations, the standard financial statements as prepared by accountants under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) are often modified and used to create alternative data and metrics that provide a somewhat different picture of a firm's operations. Related to these modifications, which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. The standard statements make adjustments to reflect the effects of inflation on asset values, and these adjustments are normally carried into any adjustment that managers make to the standard statements. b. The standard statements focus on accounting income for the entire corporation, not cash flows, and the two can be quite different during any given accounting period. However, for valuation purposes we need to discount cash flows, not accounting income. Moreover, since many firms have a number of separate divisions, and since division managers should be compensated on their divisions' performance, not that of the entire firm, information that focuses on the divisions is needed. These factors have led to the development of information that is focused on cash flows and the operations of individual units. c. The standard statements provide useful information on the firm's individual operating units, but management needs more information on the firm's overall operations than the standard statements provide. d. The standard statements focus on cash flows, but managers are less concerned with cash flows than with accounting income as defined by GAAP. e. The best feature of standard statements is that, if they are prepared under GAAP, the data are always consistent from firm to firm. Thus, under GAAP, there is no room for accountants to "adjust" the results to make earnings look better.

Ch 02 Financial Statements, Cash Flow, and Taxes firm's net after-tax income and its net cash flow to change?

Change in depreciation Tax rate Reduction in net income = Change in Depr'n (1 − Tax rate) Increase in net cash flow = Change in Depr'n − reduction in NI

$725 35.00% −$471.25 $253.75

We can also get the answer the long way, which explains things in more detail:

Bonds Interest rate Tax rate Sales Operating costs excluding depr'n Depreciation Operating income (EBIT) Interest charges Taxable income Taxes Net income after taxes Net cash flow Check on NCF: ΔNCF = change in depreciation × tax rate

We like this problem because it illustrates that an increase in depreciation will decrease the firm's net income yet increase its net cash flow, and cash is king.

Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. The maximum federal tax rate on personal income in 2014 was 50%. b. Since companies can deduct dividends paid but not interest paid, our tax system favors the use of equity financing over debt financing, and this causes companies' debt ratios to be lower than they would be if interest and dividends were both deductible. c. Interest paid to an individual is counted as income for tax purposes and taxed at the individual's regular tax rate, which in 2014 could go up to 35%, but dividends received were taxed at a maximum rate of 15%. d. The maximum federal tax rate on corporate income in 2014 was 50%. e. Corporations obtain capital for use in their operations by borrowing and by raising equity capital, either by selling new common stock or by retaining earnings. The cost of debt capital is the interest paid on the debt, and the cost of the equity is the dividends paid on the stock. Both of these costs are deductible from income when calculating income for tax purposes.

One problem with ratio analysis is that relationships can be manipulated. For example, we know that if our current ratio is less than 1.0, then using some of our cash to pay off some of our current liabilities would cause the current ratio to increase and thus make the firm look stronger. a. True b. False ANSWER: False The key here is to recognize that if the CR is less than 1.0, then a given reduction in both RATIONALE: current assets and current liabilities would lead to a decrease in the CR. The reverse would hold if the initial CR were greater than 1.0. In the question, the initial CR is less than 1.0, so using cash to reduce current liabilities would lower the CR.

However, if A's quick ratio exceeds B's, then we can be certain that A's current ratio is also larger than that of B. a. True b.

Firms A and B have the same current ratio, 0.75, the same amount of sales and cost of goods sold, and the same amount of current liabilities. However, Firm A has a higher inventory turnover ratio than B. Therefore, we can conclude that A's quick ratio must be smaller than B's. a. True b. False ANSWER: False Firm A has the higher inventory turnover, so given the same cost of goods, it must have less RATIONALE: inventory. Thus, since the two firms have the same CR, then A must have the higher QR, not the lower one. Therefore, the statement is false.

Borrow using short-term notes payable and use the cash to increase inventories. c. Use cash to reduce accruals. d. Use cash to reduce accounts payable. e. Use cash to reduce short-term notes payable. ANSWER: b The key here is to recognize that if the CR is less than 1.0, then a given increase in both RATIONALE: current assets and current liabilities would lead to an increase in the CR. The reverse would hold if the initial CR were greater than 1.0. Here the initial CR is less than 1.0, so borrowing on a short-term basis to build inventories would increase the CR. For example:

Lofland's has $20 million in current assets and $10 million in current liabilities, while Smaland's current assets are $10 million versus $20 million of current liabilities. Both firms would like to "window dress" their end-of-year financial statements, and to do so each plans to borrow $10 million on a short-term basis and to then hold the borrowed funds in their cash accounts. Which of the statements below best describes the results of these transactions? a. The transaction would improve both firms' financial strength as measured by their current ratios. b. The transactions would raise Lofland's financial strength as measured by its current ratio but lower Smaland's current ratio. c. The transactions would lower Lofland's financial strength as measured by its current ratio but raise Smaland's current ratio. d. The transaction would have no effect on the firm' financial strength as measured by their current ratios. e. The transaction would lower both firm' financial strength as measured by their current ratios. ANSWER: c The key here is to recognize that if the CR is less than 1.0, then a given increase to both RATIONALE: current assets and current liabilities will increase the CR, while the reverse will hold if the initial CR is greater than 1.0. Thus, the transaction would make Smaland look stronger but Lofland look weaker. Here's an illustration:

The inventory turnover and current ratio are related. The combination of a high current ratio and a low inventory turnover ratio, relative to industry norms, suggests that the firm has an above-average inventory level and/or that part of the inventory is obsolete or damaged. a. True b. False ANSWER: True A high current ratio is consistent with a lot of inventory. A low inventory turnover is also RATIONALE: consistent with a lot of inventory. If the CR exceeds industry norms and the turnover is below the norms, then the firm has more inventory than most other firms, given its sales. It could just be carrying a lot of good inventory, but it might also have a normal amount of "good" inventory plus some "bad" inventory that has not been written off. So the statement is true.

Ch 03 Analysis of Financial Statements RATIONALE:

a. b. c. d. e.

Lengthening depreciable lives would lower depreciation, increase taxable income and taxes, and thus lower cash flow. Paying down accounts payable would use cash and thus reduce cash flow. Reducing the DSO would require collecting receivables faster, which would indeed increase cash flow. Decreasing accruals would lower cash flow. Reducing inventory turnover would mean increasing inventories, which would use cash.

Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. If two firms differ only in their use of debt⎯i.e., they have identical assets, sales, operating costs, and tax rates⎯but one firm has a higher debt ratio, the firm that uses more debt will have a higher profit margin on sales. b. If one firm has a higher debt ratio than another, we can be certain that the firm with the higher debt ratio will have the lower TIE ratio, as that ratio depends entirely on the amount of debt a firm uses. c. A firm's use of debt will have no effect on its profit margin on sales. d. If two firms differ only in their use of debt⎯i.e., they have identical assets, sales, operating costs, interest rates on their debt, and tax rates⎯but one firm has a higher debt ratio, the firm that uses more debt will have a lower profit margin on sales. e. The debt ratio as it is generally calculated makes an adjustment for the use of assets leased under operating leases, so the debt ratios of firms that lease different percentages of their assets are still comparable. ANSWER: d a is incorrect. The reverse is true. b is false, because the TIE also depends on the interest RATIONALE: rate and EBIT. c is false, because interest affects the profit margin. d is correct, because the more interest the lower the profits, hence the lower the profit margin. e is simply incorrect.

Suppose Firms A and B have the same amount of assets, pay the same interest rate on their debt, have the same basic earning power (BEP), and have the same tax rate. However, Firm A has a higher debt ratio. If BEP is greater than the interest rate on debt, Firm A will have a higher ROE as a result of its higher debt ratio. a. True b. False ANSWER: True The easiest way to think about this is to realize that you can borrow at a cost of 10% and RATIONALE: invest the proceeds to earn 11%, you'll earn a surplus. If you were previously earning an ROE of 10%, then after raising and investing additional funds, your income will be higher, your equity will be the same, and thus your ROE will increase. Similarly, if a firm earns more on assets than the interest rate, there will be a surplus after paying interest on the debt that will go to the equity, thus increasing the ROE. So, if BEP > rd, then the firm can increase its expected ROE by using more debt leverage. The answer can also be seen by working out an example. The one below shows that leverage increases ROE if BEP > rd, but it could be varied to show no difference in ROE if interest rates and BEP are the same, and a reduction in ROE if the interest rate exceeds the BEP.

An increase in the DSO, other things held constant, could be expected to increase the total assets turnover ratio. e. An increase in the DSO, other things held constant, could be expected to increase the ROE. ANSWER: a RATIONALE: More debt would mean more interest, hence a lower NI, given a constant

a. b. c. d. e.

EBIT. This would lower the profit margin = NI/Sales. Sales fluctuations would have more effects on the DSO and S/Inventory ratios. ROE = ROA × Equity multiplier, so more debt, higher ROE for given ROA. DSO = Receivables/Sales per day. With sales constant, an increase in DSO would mean an increase in receivables, hence a decline, not a rise, in the TATO. An increase in the DSO might increase or decrease ROE, depending on how it affected sales and costs.

Suppose firms follow similar financing policies, face similar risks, have equal access to capital, and operate in competitive product and capital markets. Under these conditions, then firms that have high profit margins will tend to have high asset turnover ratios, and firms with low profit margins will tend to have low turnover ratios. a. True b. False ANSWER: False Think about the DuPont equation: ROE = PM × TATO × Equity multiplier. Similar financing RATIONALE: policies will lead to similar Equity multipliers. Moreover, competition in the capital markets will cause ROEs to be similar, because otherwise capital would flow to industries with high ROEs and drive returns down toward the average, given similar risks. To have similar ROEs, firms with relatively high PMs must have relatively low TATOs, and vice versa. Therefore, the statement is false.

If a firm finances with only debt and common equity, and if its equity multiplier is 3.0, then its debt ratio must be 0.667. a. True b. False ANSWER: True Equity multiplier = Assets/Equity = 3.0, so Assets/Equity = 1/3.0 = 0.333. By definition, RATIONALE: Equity/Assets + Debt/Assets = 1.00, so 0.333 + Debt/Assets = 1.0. Therefore, Debt/Assets = 1.0 − 0.333 = 0.667. Thus, the statement is true.

You observe that a firm's ROE is above the industry average, but its profit margin and debt ratio are both below the industry average. Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. Its total assets turnover must equal the industry average. b. Its total assets turnover must be above the industry average. c. Its return on assets must equal the industry average. d. Its TIE ratio must be below the industry average. e. Its total assets turnover must be below the industry average. ANSWER: b Thinking through the DuPont equation, we can see that if the firm's PM and Equity multiplier RATIONALE: are below the industry average, the only way its ROE can exceed the industry average is if its equity multiplier exceeds the industry average. The following data illustrate this point:

Firm Industry

ROE 30% 25%

=

PM 9% 10%

×

TATO 2.0 1

×

Eq mult. 1.67 2.50

ROA 18% 10%

The above demonstrates that b is correct, and that makes e and a incorrect. Now consider the following: NI/Assets = NI/Sales × Sales/Assets ROA = PM × TATO If its ROA were equal to the industry average, then with its low debt ratio (hence low equity multiplier) its ROE would also be below the industry average. So c is incorrect. With its debt ratio below the industry average, its interest charges should also be low, which would increase its TIE ratio, making d incorrect.

Companies Heidee and Leaudy are virtually identical in that they are both profitable, and they have the same total assets (TA), Sales (S), return on assets (ROA), and profit margin (PM). However, Company Heidee has the higher debt ratio. Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. Company Heidee has a lower operating income (EBIT) than Company LD. b. Company Heidee has a lower total assets turnover than Company Leaudy. c. Company Heidee has a lower equity multiplier than Company Leaudy. d. Company Heidee has a higher fixed assets turnover than Company Leaudy. e. Company Heidee has a higher ROE than Company Leaudy. ANSWER: e Rule out all answers except e because they are false. Alternative answer explanation using RATIONALE:

the DuPont equation: ROE = PM × TATO × Eq mult. ROE = NI/S × S/TA × TA/Equity The first two terms are the same, but KB has higher equity multiplier, hence higher ROE.

Heidee would have the higher net income as shown on the income statement. b. Without more information, we cannot tell if Heidee or Leaudy would have a higher or lower net income. c. Heidee would have the lower equity multiplier for use in the DuPont equation. d. Heidee would have to pay more in income taxes. e. Heidee would have the lower net income as shown on the income statement. ANSWER: e More debt would mean more interest, hence a lower NI, given a constant EBIT, so e is RATIONALE: correct. Also, we can rule out b and a, and Heidee would also have the higher multiplier, which rules out c. And with more interest, Heidee would have to pay less taxes, not more.

Companies Heidee and Leaudy have the same tax rate, sales, total assets, and basic earning power. Both companies have positive net incomes. Company Heidee has a higher debt ratio and, therefore, a higher interest expense. Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. Company Heidee has a lower times interest earned (TIE) ratio. b. Company Heidee has a lower equity multiplier. c. Company Heidee has more net income. d. Company Heidee pays more in taxes. e. Company Heidee has a lower ROE. ANSWER: a Heidee has higher interest charges. Basic earning power equals EBIT/Assets, and since RATIONALE: assets are equal, EBIT must also be equal. TIE = EBIT/Interest. Therefore, Heidee higher interest charges means that its TIE must be lower. Thus, a is correct. All of the other statements are incorrect.

This is true regardless of the original life of the loan or the interest rate on the loan. a. True b. False ANSWER: False There is no reason to think that this statement would always be true. The portion of the RATIONALE: payment representing interest declines, while the portion representing principal repayment increases. Therefore, the statement is false. We could also work out some numbers to prove this point. Here's an example for a 3-year loan at a 10% and a 41.45% annual interest rate. The interest component is not equal to the principal repayment component except at the high interest rate.

A $250,000 loan is to be amortized over 8 years, with annual end-of-year payments. Which of these statements is CORRECT? a. The proportion of interest versus principal repayment would be the same for each of the 8 payments. b. The annual payments would be larger if the interest rate were lower. c. If the loan were amortized over 10 years rather than 8 years, and if the interest rate were the same in either case, the first payment would include more dollars of interest under the 8-year amortization plan. d. The proportion of each payment that represents interest as opposed to repayment of principal would be lower if the interest rate were lower. e. The last payment would have a higher proportion of interest than the first payment. ANSWER: d a, b, and e can be ruled out as incorrect by simple reasoning. c is also incorrect because RATIONALE:

interest in the first year would be Loan amount × interest rate regardless of the life of the loan, so the interest payment would be identical for the first payment. Think about the situation where r = 0%, statement d is the "most logical guess." One could also set up an amortization schedule and change the numbers to confirm that only d is correct.

Ch 04 Time Value of Money GO4W-NQNBEE 53. At the end of 10 years, which of the following investments would have the highest future value? Assume that the effective annual rate for all investments is the same and is greater than zero. a. Investment A pays $250 at the beginning of every year for the next 10 years (a total of 10 payments). b. Investment B pays $125 at the end of every 6-month period for the next 10 years (a total of 20 payments). c.

Ch 04 Time Value of Money d. An account that pays 7% nominal interest with daily (365-day) compounding. e. An account that pays 7% nominal interest with monthly compounding. ANSWER: a By inspection, we can see that a dominates b and c, and that d dominates e because, with RATIONALE: the same interest rate, the account with the most frequent compounding has the highest EFF%. Thus, the correct answer must be either a or d. Moreover, we can see by inspection that since a and d have the same compounding frequency yet a has the higher nominal rate, a must have the higher EFF%. You could also prove that a is the correct choice by calculating the EFF%s: 365−1 a.

b. c. d. e.

8.328% = (1 + 0.08/365) 8.300% = (1 + 0.08/12)12−1 8.000% = (1 + 0.08/1)1−1 7.250% = (1 + 0.07/365)365−1 7.229% = (1 + 0.07/12)12−1

Which of the following bank accounts has the lowest effective annual return? a. An account that pays 8% nominal interest with daily (365-day) compounding. b. An account that pays 8% nominal interest with monthly compounding. c. An account that pays 8% nominal interest with annual compounding. d. An account that pays 7% nominal interest with daily (365-day) compounding. e. An account that pays 7% nominal interest with monthly compounding. ANSWER: e By inspection, we can see that c must have a lower EFF% than either a or b because they all RATIONALE: pay the same nominal rate but c is compounded least frequently. Similarly, d and e pay the same rate, but e is compounded less frequently, hence e must have the lower EFF%. So, the correct answer must be either c or e. It is not obvious which of these two has the lower EFF%, so we must do a quick calculation to determine the correct response. As the following calculations show, e is the correct answer.

ANSWER: e By inspection, we can see that e dominates b, c, and d because, with the same interest rate, RATIONALE: the account with the most frequent compounding has the highest EFF%. Thus, the correct answer must be either a or e. However, we cannot tell by inspection whether a or e provides the higher EFF%. We know that with one compounding period an EFF% is 6.1%, so we can calculate e's EFF%. It is 6.183%, so e is the correct answer. 12−1 a.

We can set up a table with an arbitrary initial deposit that grows at the inflation rate and is then compounded at the nominal rate for (N − t) years. The sum of the compounded amounts should total to $50,000. With an arbitrary initial amount the ending amount is not likely to be $50,000, so we use goal seek as shown in the completed dialog box to find the correct initial deposit. Inputs:

Your 75-year-old grandmother expects to live for another 15 years. She currently has $1,000,000 of savings, which is invested to earn a guaranteed 5% rate of return. If inflation averages 2% per year, how much can she withdraw (to the nearest dollar) at the beginning of each year and keep the withdrawals constant in real terms, i.e., growing at the same rate as inflation and thus enabling her to maintain a constant standard of living? a. $65,632 b. $72,925 c. $81,027 d. $89,130 e. $98,043 ANSWER: c RATIONALE: Inputs:

Number of years = 15 5% Nominal interest rate, rNOM = Available to invest = Portfolio = $1,000,000 Inflation rate = 2% Set up an "Amortization Table" to show exactly what's happening. We begin with $1 million. But we immediately make the first withdrawal, hence have less than $1 million to invest. We don't know how much we can withdraw initially, so we make a "guess" of Step 1. $50,000. We subtract the $50,000 from the initial portfolio and get $950,000, which is invested at 5% and thus earns $47,500. The earnings are added to the beginning balance, less the withdrawal, to produce the ending balance, which is carried forward to create the next beginning balance. This process is continued for 15 years. We want to end up with a $0.00 ending balance. With the $50,000 initial withdrawal, we see that we end with more than zero. Step 2. Therefore, we should make a larger initial withdrawal. We could just go through a series of trials and errors until we found an initial withdrawal that produced the zero ending balance.

Julian and Jonathan are twin brothers (and so were born on the same day). Today, both turned 25. Their grandfather began putting $2,500 per year into a trust fund for Julian on his 20th birthday, and he just made a 6th payment into the fund. The grandfather (or his estate's trustee) will make 40 more $2,500 payments until a 46th and final payment is made on Julian's 65th birthday. The grandfather set things up this way because he wants Julian to work, not be a "trust fund baby," but he also wants to ensure that Julian is provided for in his old age. Until now, the grandfather has been disappointed with Jonathan and so has not given him anything. However, they recently reconciled, and the grandfather decided to make an equivalent provision for Jonathan. He will make the first payment to a trust for Jonathan today, and he has instructed his trustee to make 40 additional equal annual payments until Jonathan turns 65, when the 41st and final payment will be made. If both trusts earn an annual return of 8%, how much must the grandfather put into Jonathan's trust today and each subsequent year to enable him to have the same retirement nest egg as Julian after the last payment is made on their 65th birthday? a. $3,726 b. $3,912 c. $4,107 d. $4,313 e. $4,528 ANSWER: a RATIONALE: Jonathan's retirement

A bond that is callable has a chance of being retired earlier than its stated term to maturity. Therefore, if the yield curve is upward sloping, an outstanding callable bond should have a lower yield to maturity than an otherwise identical noncallable bond. a. True b. False ANSWER: False The callable bond will be called if rates fall far enough below the coupon rate, but it will not be RATIONALE: called otherwise. Thus, the call provision can only harm bondholders. Therefore, callable bonds sell at higher yields than noncallable bonds, regardless of the slope of the yield curve.

You are considering 2 bonds that will be issued tomorrow. Both are rated triple B (BBB, the lowest investment-grade rating), both mature in 20 years, both have a 10% coupon, neither can be called except for sinking fund purposes, and both are offered to you at their $1,000 par values. However, Bond SF has a sinking fund while Bond NSF does not. Under the sinking fund, the company must call and pay off 5% of the bonds at par each year. The yield curve at the time is upward sloping. The bond's prices, being equal, are probably not in equilibrium, as Bond SF, which has the sinking fund, would generally be expected to have a higher yield than Bond NSF. a. True b. False ANSWER: False The sinking fund would give Bond SF a lower average maturity, and it would also lower its RATIONALE: risk. Therefore, Bond SF should have a lower, not a higher, yield.

Floating-rate debt is advantageous to investors because the interest rate moves up if market rates rise. Since floatingrate debt shifts interest rate risk to companies, it offers no advantages to issuers. a. True b.

Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. Most sinking funds require the issuer to provide funds to a trustee, who saves the money so that it will be available to pay off bondholders when the bonds mature. b. A sinking fund provision makes a bond more risky to investors at the time of issuance. c. Sinking fund provisions never require companies to retire their debt; they only establish "targets" for the company to reduce its debt over time. d. If interest rates have increased since a company issued bonds with a sinking fund, the company is less likely to retire the bonds by buying them back in the open market, as opposed to calling them in at the sinking fund call price. e.

The YTMs of three $1,000 face value bonds that mature in 10 years and have the same level of risk are equal. Bond A has an 8% annual coupon, Bond B has a 10% annual coupon, and Bond C has a 12% annual coupon. Bond B sells at par. Assuming interest rates remain constant for the next 10 years, which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. Since the bonds have the same YTM, they should all have the same price, and since interest rates are not expected to change, their prices should all remain at their current levels until maturity. b. Bond C sells at a premium (its price is greater than par), and its price is expected to increase over the next year. c. Bond A sells at a discount (its price is less than par), and its price is expected to increase over the next year. d. Over the next year, Bond A's price is expected to decrease, Bond B's price is expected to stay the same, and Bond C's price is expected to increase. e. Bond A's current yield will increase each year. ANSWER: c Note that Bond B sells at par, so the required return on all these bonds is 10%. B's price will RATIONALE: remain constant; A will sell initially at a discount and will rise, and C will sell initially at a premium and will decline. Note too that since it has larger cash flows from its higher coupons, Bond C would be less sensitive to interest rate changes; i.e., it has less interest rate risk. Perhaps it has less default risk.

If the yield to maturity of both bonds increases by the same amount, which of the following statements would be CORRECT? a. Both bonds would decline in price, but the 10-year bond would have the greater percentage decline in price. b. The prices of both bonds would increase by the same amount. c. One bond's price would increase, while the other bond's price would decrease. d. The prices of the two bonds would remain constant. e. The prices of both bonds will decrease by the same amount. ANSWER: a We can tell by inspection that b, c, d, and e are all incorrect. That leaves answer a as the RATIONALE: only possibly correct statement. Recognize that longer-term bonds, and ones where payments come late (like low coupon bonds) are most sensitive to changes in interest rates. Thus, the 10-year, 8% coupon bond should be more sensitive to a decline in rates. You could also do some calculations to confirm that a is correct.

Assume that a 10-year Treasury bond has a 12% annual coupon, while a 15-year T-bond has an 8% annual coupon. Assume also that the yield curve is flat, and all Treasury securities have a 10% yield to maturity. Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. If interest rates decline, the prices of both bonds will increase, but the 10-year bond would have a larger percentage increase in price. b. The 10-year bond would sell at a discount, while the 15-year bond would sell at a premium. c. The 10-year bond would sell at a premium, while the 15-year bond would sell at par. d. If the yield to maturity on both bonds remains at 10% over the next year, the price of the 10-year bond would increase, but the price of the 15-year bond would fall. e. If interest rates decline, the prices of both bonds will increase, but the 15-year bond would have a larger percentage increase in price.

Ch 05 Bonds, Bond Valuation, and Interest Rates b. $968.18 c. $993.01 d. $1,017.83 e. $1,043.28 ANSWER: RATIONALE:

c These two bonds should provide the same EFF%. Therefore, we can find the EFF% for the semiannual bond and then use it as the YTM for the annual payment bond. At the calculated price, the two bonds will have YTMs with the same EFF%. Note too that the semiannual payment bond must have a higher price than the annual bond because then it receives the same cash flow, but faster. Therefore Bond A must sell at a price below the $1,000 par value at which S sells.

d The par bond has a coupon rate of 10% and a periodic rate of 5%, and it sells at par. Therefore, the going nominal rate must be 10%. The OID bond must provide the same EFF%, because it is equally risky. Therefore, it must be evaluated with the parameters shown below to find its price, which is then used to find the number of bonds issued.

Even if a bond's YTC exceeds its YTM, an investor with an investment horizon longer than the bond's maturity would be worse off if the bond were called. c. A bond is likely to be called if its market price is equal to its par value. d. A bond is likely to be called if it sells at a discount below par. e. A bond is likely to be called if its coupon rate is below its YTM. ANSWER: b A bond would not be called unless the current rate was below the YTM. The investor would RATIONALE: get the funds, then reinvest at the new market rate. Thus, the investor would end up earning less than the YTM, even after receiving the call premium.

Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. A bond's current yield must always be either equal to its yield to maturity or between its yield to maturity and its coupon rate. b. If a bond sells at par, then its current yield will be less than its yield to maturity. c. If a bond sells for less than par, then its yield to maturity is less than its coupon rate. d. A discount bond's price declines each year until it matures, when its value equals its par value. e. Assume that two bonds have equal maturities and are of equal risk, but one bond sells at par while the other sells at a premium above par. The premium bond must have a lower current yield and a higher capital gains yield than the par bond. ANSWER: a Answer b is incorrect because a bond selling at par must have a current yield equal to its RATIONALE: YTM. Answer c is incorrect because a bond selling at below par must have a YTM > the coupon rate. Answer d is incorrect because a discount bond's price must rise over time. Answer e is incorrect because a premium bond must have a negative capital gains yield. That leaves Answer a as the only possibly correct answer. Note that YTM = Cur Yld +/− Cap gains Yld., so Cur Yld = YTM +/− Cap gain yld. The cap gains yld will be positive or negative depending on whether the coupon rate is above or below the YTM. That means that the Cur yld must either equal the YTM or be between the YTM and the coupon rate. a's correctness is also demonstrated below:

Cornwall Corporation is planning to raise $1,000,000 to finance a new plant. Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. If debt is used to raise the million dollars, but $500,000 is raised as first mortgage bonds on the new plant and $500,000 as debentures, the interest rate on the first mortgage bonds would be lower than it would be if the entire $1 million were raised by selling first mortgage bonds. b. If two tiers of debt are used (with one senior and one subordinated debt class), the subordinated debt will carry a lower interest rate. c. If debt is used to raise the million dollars, the cost of the debt would be lower if the debt were in the form of a fixed-rate bond rather than a floating-rate bond. d. If debt is used to raise the million dollars, the cost of the debt would be higher if the debt were in the form of a mortgage bond rather than an unsecured term loan. e. The company would be especially eager to have a call provision included in the indenture if its management thinks that interest rates are almost certain to rise in the foreseeable future. ANSWER: a On statement a, note that if only $500,000 of 1st mortgage bonds were secured by $1 million RATIONALE: of property, each of those bonds would be less risky than if there were $1 million of bonds backed by the $1 million of property. Note too that the cost of the total $1 million of debt would be an average of the cost of the mortgage bonds and the debentures, and that cost could be higher, lower, or the same as if only mortgage bonds or debentures were used.

Suppose International Digital Technologies decides to raise a total of $200 million, with $100 million as long-term debt and $100 million as common equity. The debt can be mortgage bonds or debentures, but by an iron-clad provision in its charter, the company can never raise any additional debt beyond the original $100 million. Given these conditions, which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. If the debt were raised by issuing $50 million of debentures and $50 million of first mortgage bonds, we could be certain that the firm's total interest expense would be lower than if the debt were raised by issuing $100 million of debentures. b. In this situation, we cannot tell for sure how, or whether, the firm's total interest expense on the $100 million of debt would be affected by the mix of debentures versus first mortgage bonds. The interest rate on each of the two types of bonds would increase as the percentage of mortgage bonds used was increased, but the result Cengage Learning Testing, Powered by Cognero

Page 48

Ch 05 Bonds, Bond Valuation, and Interest Rates might well be such that the firm's total interest charges would not be affected materially by the mix between the two. c. The higher the percentage of debentures, the greater the risk borne by each debenture, and thus the higher the required rate of return on the debentures. d. If the debt were raised by issuing $50 million of debentures and $50 million of first mortgage bonds, we could be certain that the firm's total interest expense would be lower than if the debt were raised by issuing $100 million of first mortgage bonds. e. The higher the percentage of debt represented by mortgage bonds, the riskier both types of bonds will be and, consequently, the higher the firm's total dollar interest charges will be. ANSWER: b The higher the percentage of mortgage bonds, the less the collateral backing each bond, so RATIONALE: the bonds' risk and thus required return would be higher. Also, the higher the percentage of mortgage bonds, the less free assets would be backing the debentures, so their risk and required return would also be higher. However, mortgage bonds are less risky than debentures, so mortgage bond rates are lower than rates on debentures. We end up with a situation where the greater the percentage of mortgage bonds, the higher the rate on both types of bonds, but the average cost to the company could be higher, lower, or constant. Note that we could draw a graph of the situation, with % mortgage on the horizontal axis and rates on the vertical axis, then the graph would look like the WACC graph in the cost of capital chapter.

Assuming all else is constant, which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. For any given maturity, a 1.0 percentage point decrease in the market interest rate would cause a smaller dollar capital gain than the capital loss stemming from a 1.0 percentage point increase in the interest rate. b. From a corporate borrower's point of view, interest paid on bonds is not tax-deductible. c. Price sensitivity as measured by the percentage change in price due to a given change in the required rate of return decreases as a bond's maturity increases. d. For a bond of any maturity, a 1.0 percentage point increase in the market interest rate (rd) causes a larger dollar capital loss than the capital gain stemming from a 1.0 percentage point decrease in the interest rate. e. A 20-year zero coupon bond has more reinvestment rate risk than a 20-year coupon bond. ANSWER: d It is relatively easy to eliminate b, c, and e. When choosing between a and d, think about the RATIONALE: graph that shows the relationship between a bond's price and the going interest rate. This curve is concave, indicating that at any interest rate, the decline in price from an increase in rates is less than the gain in price from a similar interest rate decline. It would be easy to confirm this statement with an example.

Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. If the maturity risk premium (MRP) is greater than zero, then the yield curve must have an upward slope. b. Because long-term bonds are riskier than short-term bonds, yields on long-term Treasury bonds will always be higher than yields on short-term T-bonds. c. If the maturity risk premium (MRP) equals zero, the yield curve must be flat. d. The yield curve can never be downward sloping. e. If inflation is expected to increase in the future, and if the maturity risk premium (MRP) is greater than zero, then the yield curve will have an upward slope. ANSWER: e The slope of the yield curve depends primarily on expected inflation and the MRP.

Someone who is risk averse has a general dislike for risk and a preference for certainty. If risk aversion exists in the market, then investors in general are willing to accept somewhat lower returns on less risky securities. Different investors have different degrees of risk aversion, and the end result is that investors with greater risk aversion tend to hold securities with lower risk (and therefore a lower expected return) than investors who have more tolerance for risk. a.

If you found a stock with a zero historical beta and held it as the only stock in your portfolio, you would by definition have a riskless portfolio. b. The beta coefficient of a stock is normally found by regressing past returns on a stock against past market returns.

One has a beta of 1.2 as determined in a regression analysis using data for the last 5 years, while the other has a beta of −0.6. The returns on the stock with the negative beta must have been negatively correlated with returns on most other stocks during that 5year period. b. Suppose you are managing a stock portfolio, and you have information that leads you to believe the stock market is likely to be very strong in the immediate future. That is, you are convinced that the market is about to rise sharply. You should sell your high-beta stocks and buy low-beta stocks in order to take advantage of the expected market move. c. You think that investor sentiment is about to change, and investors are about to become more risk averse. This suggests that you should re-balance your portfolio to include more high-beta stocks. d. If the market risk premium remains constant, but the risk-free rate declines, then the required returns on lowbeta stocks will rise while those on high-beta stocks will decline. e. Paid-in-Full Inc. is in the business of collecting past-due accounts for other companies, i.e., it is a collection agency. Paid-in-Full's revenues, profits, and stock price tend to rise during recessions. This suggests that Paidin-Full Inc.'s beta should be quite high, say 2.0, because it does so much better than most other companies when the economy is weak.

If the market risk premium increases but the risk-free rate remains unchanged, Dixon's required return will increase because it has a beta greater than 1.0 but Clark's required return will decline because it has a beta less than 1.0. b. Since Dixon's beta is twice that of Clark's, its required rate of return will also be twice that of Clark's. c. If the risk-free rate increases while the market risk premium remains constant, then the required return on an average stock will increase. d.

Portfolio AB was created by investing in a combination of Stocks A and B. Stock A has a beta of 1.2 and a standard deviation of 25%. Stock B has a beta of 1.4 and a standard deviation of 20%. Portfolio AB has a beta of 1.25 and a standard deviation of 18%. Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. Stock A has more market risk than Stock B but less stand-alone risk. b. Portfolio AB has more money invested in Stock A than in Stock B. c. Portfolio AB has the same amount of money invested in each of the two stocks. d. Portfolio AB has more money invested in Stock B than in Stock A. e. Stock A has more market risk than Portfolio AB. ANSWER: b b is correct. Beta P = %A(1.2) + %B(1.4) = 1.25. If 50% is in each stock, then we would have RATIONALE: Beta P = 0.5(1.2) + 0.5(1.4) = 1.3. But beta P < 1.3, so more money must be invested in the low beta stock, A.

Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. If investors become more risk averse but rRF does not change, then the required rate of return on high-beta stocks will rise and the required return on low-beta stocks will decline, but the required return on an averagerisk stock will not change. b. An investor who holds just one stock will generally be exposed to more risk than an investor who holds a portfolio of stocks, assuming the stocks are all equally risky. Since the holder of the 1-stock portfolio is exposed to more risk, he or she can expect to earn a higher rate of return to compensate for the greater risk. c. There is no reason to think that the slope of the yield curve would have any effect on the slope of the SML. d. Assume that the required rate of return on the market, rM, is given and fixed at 10%.

If Mutual Fund A held equal amounts of 100 stocks, each of which had a beta of 1.0, and Mutual Fund B held equal amounts of 10 stocks with betas of 1.0, then the two mutual funds would both have betas of 1.0. Thus, they would be equally risky from an investor's standpoint, assuming the investor's only asset is one or the other of the mutual funds.

DHF Company has a beta of 1.5 and is currently in equilibrium. The required rate of return on the stock is 12.00% versus a required return on an average stock of 10.00%. Now the required return on an average stock increases by 30.0% (not percentage points). Neither betas nor the risk-free rate change. What would DHF's new required return be? a. 14.89% b. 15.68% c. 16.50% d. 17.33% e. 18.19% ANSWER: c This problem requires some algebra: RATIONALE:

Now for the algebra: rStock = rRF + b(RPM) = rRF + 1.5(RPM) rMarket = rRF + b(RPM) = rRF + 1.0(RPM) Now insert known data and transpose: 12% = rRF + 1.5(RPM) >> 12% − rRF = 1.5(RPM) 10% = rRF + (RPM) >> 10% − rRF = 1.0(RPM) Now subtract the second equation from the first. rRF and one of the RPMs cancel, leaving: 2% = 0.5(RPM) Cengage Learning Testing, Powered by Cognero

If a company has a WACC = 12% and its free cash flow is expected to grow at a constant rate of 5%, this implies that the stock's dividend yield is also 5%. b. The free cash flow valuation model for constant growth, Vop = FCF1/(WACC − g), can be used to value firms whose free cash flows are expected to decline at a constant rate, i.e., to grow at a negative rate. c. The value of operations of a stock is the present value of all expected future free cash flows, discounted at the free cash flow growth rate. d. The constant growth model cannot be used for a zero growth stock, where free cash flows are expected to remain constant over time. e.

Based on the free cash flow valuation model, Bizzaro Co.'s value of operations is $300 million. The balance sheet shows $20 million of short-term investments that are unrelated to operations, $50 million of accounts payable, $90 million of notes payable, $30 million of long-term debt, $40 million of preferred stock, and $100 million of common equity. Bizzaro has 10 million shares of stock outstanding. What is the best estimate of the stock's price per share? a. $13.72 b. $14.44 c. $15.20 d. $16.00 e. $16.80 ANSWER: d RATIONALE: Value of operations: $300

Short-term investments: Notes payable: Long-term debt: Preferred stock Shares outstanding:

$20 $90 $30 $40 10

Assuming that the book value of debt is close to its market value, the total market value of the company is:

Total market value = Value of operations + Value of non-operating assets = $300 + $20 = $320. Value of Equity Stock price

= Total MV − Long- and Short-term debt and preferred = $160 = Value of Equity/Shares outstanding = $16.00

The book value of equity figures are irrelevant for this problem. Also, the working capital account numbers are not relevant because they were netted out when the FCF was calculated.

A stock is expected to pay a year-end dividend of $2.00, i.e., D1 = $2.00. The dividend is expected to decline at a rate of 5% a year forever (g = −5%). If the company is in equilibrium and its expected and required rate of return is 15%, which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. The company's dividend yield 5 years from now is expected to be 10%. b. The constant growth model cannot be used because the growth rate is negative. c. The company's expected capital gains yield is 5%. d. The company's expected stock price at the beginning of next year is $9.50. e. The company's current stock price is $20. ANSWER: d RATIONALE: Note that P0 = $2/(0.15 + 0.05) = $10. That price is expected to decline by 5% each year, so P1 must be $10(0.95) = $9.50. Therefore, answer d is correct, while the others are all false.

A B Price $25 $25 Expected growth (constant) 10% 5% Required return 15% 15% a. Stock A has a higher dividend yield than Stock B. b. Currently the two stocks have the same price, but over time Stock B's price will pass that of A. c. Since Stock A's growth rate is twice that of Stock B, Stock A's future dividends will always be twice as high as Stock B's. d. The two stocks should not sell at the same price. If their prices are equal, then a disequilibrium must exist. e. Stock A's expected dividend at t = 1 is only half that of Stock B. ANSWER: e Statement e is correct, because if both stocks have the same price and the same required RATIONALE: return, and A's growth rate is twice that of B, then A's dividend and dividend yield must be half that of B. This point is illustrated with the following example.

The required return for Williamson Heating's stock is 12%, and the stock sells for $40 per share. The firm just paid a dividend of $1.00, and the dividend is expected to grow by 30% per year for the next 4 years, so D4 = $1.00(1.30)4 = $2.8561. After t = 4, the dividend is expected to grow at a constant rate of X% per year forever.

Stock price = $40.00. Must equal $40. Change the forecasted growth rate till reach $40. We must solve for the long-run growth rate. We can forecast the dividends in Years 1-4, so they are inserted in the time line. We need a growth rate to find D5 and the TV. We begin with a guess of say 5.0%, which we insert in the forecast cell. We then find the PV of the forecasted CFs and sum them. If the sum equals the given price, then our growth rate would be correct. If not, we need to substitute in different g's until we find the one that works. We used Excel's Goal Seek function to simplify the process, but one could use trial and error.

Julia Saunders is your boss and the treasurer of Foster Carter Enterprises (FCE). She asked you to help her estimate the intrinsic value of the company's stock. FCE just paid a dividend of $1.00, and the stock now sells for $15.00 per share. Julia asked a number of security analysts what they believe FCE's future dividends will be, based on their analysis of the company. The consensus is that the dividend will be increased by 10% during Years 1 to 3, and it will be increased at a rate of 5% per year in Year 4 and thereafter. Julia asked you to use that information to estimate the required rate of return on the stock, rs, and she provided you with the following template for use in the analysis:

Julia told you that the growth rates in the template were just put in as a trial, and that you must replace them with the analysts' forecasted rates to get the correct forecasted dividends and then the estimated TV. She also notes that the estimated value for rs, at the top of the template, is also just a guess, and you must replace it with a value that will cause the Calculated Price shown at the bottom to equal the Actual Market Price. She suggests that, after you have put in the correct dividends, you can manually calculate the price, using a series of guesses as to the Estimated rs. The value of rs that causes the calculated price to equal the actual price is the correct one. She notes, though, that this trial-and-error process would be quite tedious, and that the correct rs could be found much faster with a simple Excel model, especially if you use Goal Seek. What is the value of rs? a. 11.84% b. 12.21% c. 12.58% d. 12.97% e. 13.36% ANSWER: d Finding the discount rate when we know the dividends and the actual stock price is RATIONALE: complicated if the growth rate is not constant, and an iterative solution is required.

The market value of an option depends in part on the option's time to maturity and also on the variability of the underlying stock's price. d. The potential loss on an option decreases as the option sells at higher and higher prices because the profit margin gets bigger. e. An option's value is determined by its exercise value, which is the market price of the stock less its striking price. Thus, an option can't sell for more than its exercise value.

The reason why reinvested earnings have a cost equal to rs is because investors think they can (i.e., expect to) earn rs on investments with the same risk as the firm's common stock, and if the firm does not think that it can earn rs on the earnings that it retains, it should distribute those earnings to its investors. Thus, the cost of reinvested earnings is based on the opportunity cost principle. a. True b.

Ch 09 The Cost of Capital GO4W-NQNBEE 24. When estimating the cost of equity by use of the CAPM, three potential problems are (1) whether to use long-term or short-term rates for rRF, (2) whether or not the historical beta is the beta that investors use when evaluating the stock, and (3) how to measure the market risk premium, RPM. These problems leave us unsure of the true value of rs. a. True b. False ANSWER: True Unfortunately, this is true.

If expectations for long-term inflation rose, but the slope of the SML remained constant, this would have a greater impact on the required rate of return on equity, rs, than on the interest rate on long-term debt, rd, for most firms. Therefore, the percentage point increase in the cost of equity would be greater than the increase in the interest rate on long-term debt. a. True b. False ANSWER: False Increased inflation results in a parallel upward shift in the SML, which means equal RATIONALE: percentage increases in the required return on debt and equity.

Other things held constant, this would lead to an increase in the use of debt and a decrease in the use of equity. However, other things would not stay constant if firms used a lot more debt, as that would increase the riskiness of both debt and equity and thus limit the shift toward debt. a. True b.

When working with the CAPM, which of the following factors can be determined with the most precision? a. The beta coefficient, bi, of a relatively safe stock. b. The most appropriate risk-free rate, rRF. c. The expected rate of return on the market, rM. d. The beta coefficient of "the market," which is the same as the beta of an average stock. e. The market risk premium (RPM). ANSWER: RATIONALE:

d By definition, both the market and an average stock have betas of 1.0. Since we know this to be the case, we can obviously determine beta for the market or an average stock with precision.

Since you believe that your firm's stock price is temporarily depressed, all additional capital funds required during the current year will be raised using debt. In this case, the appropriate marginal cost of capital for use in capital budgeting during the current year is the after-tax cost of debt. a. True b.

In general, firms should use their weighted average cost of capital (WACC) to evaluate capital budgeting projects because most projects are funded with general corporate funds, which come from a variety of sources. However, if the firm plans to use only debt or only equity to fund a particular project, it should use the after-tax cost of that specific type of capital to evaluate that project. a. True b. False ANSWER: False In general, this statement is false, because the firm should be viewed as an ongoing entity, RATIONALE: and using debt (or equity) to fund a given project will change the capital structure, and this factor should be recognized by basing the cost of capital for all projects on a target capital structure. Under some special circumstances, where a project is set up as a separate entity, then "project financing" may be used, and only the project's specific situation is considered. This is a specific situation, however, and not the "in general" case.

When estimating the cost of equity by use of the bond-yield-plus-risk-premium method, we can generally get a good idea of the interest rate on new long-term debt, but we cannot be sure that the risk premium we add is appropriate.

Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. When calculating the cost of preferred stock, companies must adjust for taxes, because dividends paid on preferred stock are deductible by the paying corporation. b. Because of tax effects, an increase in the risk-free rate will have a greater effect on the after-tax cost of debt than on the cost of common stock as measured by the CAPM. c. If a company's beta increases, this will increase the cost of equity used to calculate the WACC, but only if the company does not have enough reinvested earnings to take care of its equity financing and hence must issue new stock. d. Higher flotation costs reduce investors' expected returns, and that leads to a reduction in a company's WACC. e. When calculating the cost of debt, a company needs to adjust for taxes, because interest payments are deductible by the paying corporation. ANSWER: e Statement e is true; interest payments on debt are tax deductible. The other statements are RATIONALE: false.

Ch 09 The Cost of Capital a. We should use historical measures of the component costs from prior financings that are still outstanding when estimating a company's WACC for capital budgeting purposes. b. The cost of new equity (re) could possibly be lower than the cost of reinvested earnings (rs) if the market risk premium, risk-free rate, and the company's beta all decline by a sufficiently large amount. c. A firm's cost of reinvesting earnings is the rate of return stockholders require on a firm's common stock. d. The component cost of preferred stock is expressed as rp(1 − T), because preferred stock dividends are treated as fixed charges, similar to the treatment of interest on debt. e. In the WACC calculation, we must adjust the cost of preferred stock (the market yield) to reflect the fact that 70% of the dividends received by corporate investors are excluded from their taxable income.

Ch 09 The Cost of Capital 52. Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. A cost should be assigned to reinvested earnings due to the opportunity cost principle, which refers to the fact that the firm's stockholders would themselves expect to earn a return on earnings that were distributed rather than retained and reinvested. b. No cost should be assigned to reinvested earnings because the firm does not have to pay anything to raise them. They are generated as cash flows by operating assets that were raised in the past; hence, they are "free." c. Suppose a firm has been losing money and thus is not paying taxes, and this situation is expected to persist into the foreseeable future. In this case, the firm's before-tax and after-tax costs of debt for purposes of calculating the WACC will both be equal to the interest rate on the firm's currently outstanding debt, provided that debt was issued during the past 5 years. d. If a firm has enough reinvested earnings to fund its capital budget for the coming year, then there is no need to estimate either a cost of equity or a WACC. e. The component cost of preferred stock is expressed as rp(1 − T). This follows because preferred stock dividends are treated as fixed charges, and as such they can be deducted by the issuer for tax purposes.

Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. The after-tax cost of debt that should be used as the component cost when calculating the WACC is the average after-tax cost of all the firm's outstanding debt. b. Suppose some of a publicly-traded firm's stockholders are not diversified; they hold only the one firm's stock. In this case, the CAPM approach will result in an estimated cost of equity that is too low in the sense that if it is used in capital budgeting, projects will be accepted that will reduce the firm's intrinsic value. c. The cost of equity is generally harder to measure than the cost of debt because there is no stated, contractual cost number on which to base the cost of equity. d. The bond-yield-plus-risk-premium approach is the most sophisticated and objective method for estimating a firm's cost of equity capital. e.

Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. The dividend growth model is generally preferred by academics and financial executives over other models for estimating the cost of equity. This is because of the dividend growth model's logical appeal and also because accurate estimates for its key inputs, the dividend yield and the growth rate, are easy to obtain. b. The bond-yield-plus-risk-premium approach to estimating the cost of equity may not always be accurate, but it has the advantage that its two key inputs, the firm's own cost of debt and its risk premium, can be found by using standardized and objective procedures. c. Surveys indicate that the CAPM is the most widely used method for estimating the cost of equity. However, other methods are also used because CAPM estimates may be subject to error, and people like to use different methods as checks on one another. If all of the methods produce similar results, this increases the decision maker's confidence in the estimated cost of equity. d. The dividend growth model model is preferred by academics and finance practitioners over other cost of capital models because it correctly recognizes that the expected return on a stock consists of a dividend yield plus an expected capital gains yield. e. Although some methods used to estimate the cost of equity are subject to severe limitations, the CAPM is a simple, straightforward, and reliable model that consistently produces accurate cost of equity estimates. In particular, academics and corporate finance people generally agree that its key inputs⎯beta, the risk-free rate, and the market risk premium⎯can be estimated with little error.

Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. If the calculated beta underestimates the firm's true investment risk⎯i.e., if the forward-looking beta that investors think exists exceeds the historical beta⎯then the CAPM method based on the historical beta will produce an estimate of rs and thus WACC that is too high. b. Beta measures market risk, which is, theoretically, the most relevant risk measure for a publicly-owned firm that seeks to maximize its intrinsic value. This is true even if not all of the firm's stockholders are well diversified. c. An advantage shared by both the dividend growth model and CAPM methods when they are used to estimate the cost of equity is that they are both "objective" as opposed to "subjective," hence little or no judgment is required. d. The specific risk premium used in the CAPM is the same as the risk premium used in the bond-yield-plus-riskpremium approach. e.

Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. The WACC is calculated using a before-tax cost for debt that is equal to the interest rate that must be paid on new debt, along with the after-tax costs for common stock and for preferred stock if it is used. b. An increase in the risk-free rate is likely to reduce the marginal costs of both debt and equity. c. The relevant WACC can change depending on the amount of funds a firm raises during a given year. Moreover, the WACC at each level of funds raised is a weighted average of the marginal costs of each capital component, with the weights based on the firm's target capital structure. d. Beta measures market risk, which is generally the most relevant risk measure for a publicly-owned firm that seeks to maximize its intrinsic value. However, this is not true unless all of the firm's stockholders are well diversified. e. The bond-yield-plus-risk-premium approach to estimating the cost of common equity involves adding a risk premium to the interest rate on the company's own long-term bonds. The size of the risk premium for bonds with different ratings is published daily in The Wall Street Journal. ANSWER: c Statement c is true⎯the WACC will increase if the firm raises more funds than can be RATIONALE: supported by reinvested earnings.

Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. Since its stockholders are not directly responsible for paying a corporation's income taxes, corporations should focus on before-tax cash flows when calculating the WACC. b. An increase in a firm's tax rate will increase the component cost of debt, provided the YTM on the firm's bonds is not affected by the change in the tax rate.

Ch 09 The Cost of Capital c. When the WACC is calculated, it should reflect the costs of new common stock, reinvested earnings, preferred stock, long-term debt, short-term bank loans if the firm normally finances with bank debt, and accounts payable if the firm normally has accounts payable on its balance sheet. d. If a firm has been suffering accounting losses that are expected to continue into the foreseeable future, and therefore its tax rate is zero, then it is possible for the after-tax cost of preferred stock to be less than the aftertax cost of debt. e. Since the costs of internal and external equity are related, an increase in the flotation cost required to sell a new issue of stock will increase the cost of reinvested earnings. ANSWER: d Statement d is true. The firm would receive no tax savings on interest, so its cost of debt RATIONALE: would not be reduced by the tax factor. However, corporate investors would be able to deduct 70% of the preferred dividends they receive, which would make them willing to accept a lower before-tax yield on preferred stock than on bonds. Put another way, the market yield on this firm's preferred could be lower than the interest rate on its debt because of the 70% exclusion; however, with a zero tax rate there would be no reduction in the firm's cost of debt.

Firm J's earnings and stock price tend to move up and down with other firms in the S&P 500, while Firm F's earnings and stock price move counter cyclically with J and other S&P companies. Both J and F estimate their costs of equity using the CAPM, they have identical market values, their standard deviations of returns are identical, and they both finance only with common equity. Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. J and F should have identical WACCs because their risks as measured by the standard deviation of returns are identical. b. If J and F merge, then the merged firm MW should have a WACC that is a simple average of J's and F's WACCs. c. Without additional information, it is impossible to predict what the merged firm's WACC would be if J and F merged. d. Since J and F move counter cyclically to one another, if they merged, the merged firm's WACC would be less than the simple average of the two firms' WACCs. e.

Ch 09 The Cost of Capital ANSWER: RATIONALE:

b Statement b is true. The merged firm would have a beta that is a simple average of J's and F's betas, and that would result in a cost of equity that is an average of the two firms' costs of equity. Since they are financed only with equity, their WACCs could also be averaged to find the merged firm's WACC.

All else equal, an increase in a company's stock price will increase its marginal cost of new common equity, re. c. Since the money is readily available, the after-tax cost of reinvested earnings (not newly issued stock) is usually much lower than the after-tax cost of debt. d. If a company's tax rate increases but the YTM on its noncallable bonds remains the same, the after-tax cost of its debt will fall. e. When calculating the cost of preferred stock, a company needs to adjust for taxes, because preferred stock dividends are deductible by the paying corporation. ANSWER: d RATIONALE: Statement d is true, because the after-tax cost of debt is rd(1 − T). So, if rd remains constant but T increases, rd(1 − T) will decline. The other statements are false.

If a firm is privately owned, and its stock is not traded in public markets, then we cannot measure its beta for use in the CAPM model, we cannot observe its stock price for use in the dividend growth model, and we don't know what the risk premium is for use in the bond-yield-plus-risk-premium method. All this makes it especially difficult to estimate the cost of equity for a private company. a. True b. False ANSWER: True True, but data on comparable publicly owned firms can often be obtained and used as RATIONALE: proxies for private firms.

Firms raise capital at the total corporate level by retaining earnings and by obtaining funds in the capital markets. They then provide funds to their different divisions for investment in capital projects. The divisions may vary in risk, and the projects within the divisions may also vary in risk. Therefore, it is conceptually correct to use different risk-adjusted costs of capital for different capital budgeting projects. a. True b.

With its current financial policies, Flagstaff Inc. will have to issue new common stock to fund its capital budget. Since new stock has a higher cost than reinvested earnings, Flagstaff would like to avoid issuing new stock. Which of the following actions would REDUCE its need to issue new common stock? a. Increase the percentage of debt in the target capital structure. b. Increase the proposed capital budget. c. Reduce the amount of short-term bank debt in order to increase the current ratio. d. Reduce the percentage of debt in the target capital structure. e. Increase the dividend payout ratio for the upcoming year.

Weatherall Enterprises has no debt or preferred stock⎯it is an all-equity firm⎯and has a beta of 2.0. The chief financial officer is evaluating a project with an expected return of 14%, before any risk adjustment. The risk-free rate is 5%, and the market risk premium is 4%. The project being evaluated is riskier than an average project, in terms of both its beta risk and its total risk. Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. The project should definitely be rejected because its expected return (before risk adjustment) is less than its required return. b. Riskier-than-average projects should have their expected returns increased to reflect their higher risk. Clearly, this would make the project acceptable regardless of the amount of the adjustment. c. The accept/reject decision depends on the firm's risk-adjustment policy. If Weatherall's policy is to increase the required return on a riskier-than-average project to 3% over rS, then it should reject the project. d. Capital budgeting projects should be evaluated solely on the basis of their total risk. Thus, insufficient information has been provided to make the accept/reject decision. e. The project should definitely be accepted because its expected return (before any risk adjustments) is greater than its required return. ANSWER: c RATIONALE: Statement c is correct. Here is the proof: rs = 5% + 4%(2.0) = 5% + 8% = 13%. Required return for risky projects = 13% + 3% = 16%. Project return = 14% < adjusted rs = 16%. Thus, the project should be rejected.

The company will take on too many low-risk projects and reject too many high-risk projects. b. Things will generally even out over time, and, therefore, the firm's risk should remain constant over time. c. The company's overall WACC should decrease over time because its stock price should be increasing. d. The CEO's recommendation would maximize the firm's intrinsic value. e. The company will take on too many high-risk projects and reject too many low-risk projects. ANSWER: e Low-risk projects will tend to have low expected returns and vice versa for high-risk projects RATIONALE: due to competition in the economy. By not adjusting the cost of capital for project risk, the firm will tend to reject low-risk projects even though they earn higher returns than their riskadjusted costs of capital, and vice versa for high-risk projects. In addition, as the firm takes on more high-risk projects, its correct WACC will increase over time. Therefore, statement e is correct.

The Tierney Group has two divisions of equal size: an office furniture manufacturing division and a data processing division. Its CFO believes that stand-alone data processor companies typically have a WACC of 9%, while stand-alone furniture manufacturers typically have a 13% WACC. She also believes that the data processing and manufacturing divisions have the same risk as their typical peers. Consequently, she estimates that the composite, or corporate, WACC is 11%. A consultant has suggested using a 9% hurdle rate for the data processing division and a 13% hurdle rate for the manufacturing division. However, the CFO disagrees, and she has assigned an 11% WACC to all projects in both divisions. Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. The decision not to adjust for risk means, in effect, that it is favoring the data processing division. Therefore, that division is likely to become a larger part of the consolidated company over time. b. The decision not to adjust for risk means that the company will accept too many projects in the manufacturing division and too few in the data processing division. This will lead to a reduction in the firm's intrinsic value over time. c. The decision not to risk-adjust means that the company will accept too many projects in the data processing business and too few projects in the manufacturing business. This will lead to a reduction in its intrinsic value over time. d. The decision not to risk-adjust means that the company will accept too many projects in the manufacturing business and too few projects in the data processing business. This may affect the firm's capital structure but it will not affect its intrinsic value. e. While the decision to use just one WACC will result in its accepting more projects in the manufacturing division and fewer projects in its data processing division than if it followed the consultant's recommendation, this should not affect the firm's intrinsic value. ANSWER: b By not making the risk adjustment, the firm will accept too many projects in the manufacturing RATIONALE: division and too few in the data processing division.

Careco Company and Audaco Inc are identical in size and capital structure. However, the riskiness of their assets and cash flows are somewhat different, resulting in Careco having a WACC of 10% and Audaco a WACC of 12%. Careco is considering Project X, which has an IRR of 10.5% and is of the same risk as a typical Careco project. Audaco is considering Project Y, which has an IRR of 11.5% and is of the same risk as a typical Audaco project. Now assume that the two companies merge and form a new company, Careco/Audaco Inc. Moreover, the new company's market risk is an average of the pre-merger companies' market risks, and the merger has no impact on either the cash flows or the risks of Projects X and Y. Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. If evaluated using the correct post-merger WACC, Project X would have a negative NPV. b.

Which of the following statements is CORRECT? Assume that the firm is a publicly-owned corporation and is seeking to maximize shareholder wealth. a. If a firm's managers want to maximize the value of their firm's stock, they should, in theory, concentrate on project risk as measured by the standard deviation of the project's expected future cash flows. b. If a firm evaluates all projects using the same cost of capital, and the CAPM is used to help determine that cost, then its risk as measured by beta will probably decline over time. c. Projects with above-average risk typically have higher than average expected returns. Therefore, to maximize a firm's intrinsic value, its managers should favor high-beta projects over those with lower betas. d. Project A has a standard deviation of expected returns of 20%, while Project B's standard deviation is only 10%. A's returns are negatively correlated with both the firm's other assets and the returns on most stocks in the economy, while B's returns are positively correlated. Therefore, Project A is less risky to a firm and should be evaluated with a lower cost of capital. e. If a firm has a beta that is less than 1.0, say 0.9, this would suggest that the expected returns on its assets are negatively correlated with the returns on most other firms' assets. ANSWER: d The fact that A's returns are negatively correlated means that it serves as a sort of insurance RATIONALE: policy to the firm. The fact that its SD is high is actually good, because the negative correlation will cause the project's beta versus the market and also with the firm's other assets to be relatively low, denoting a low risk and thus justifying a relatively low cost of capital. This answer is theoretically always true, and it is especially true if the firm is large, has many projects, and Project A is not a "bet the company" project.

When considering two mutually exclusive projects, the firm should always select the project whose internal rate of return is the highest, provided the projects have the same initial cost. This statement is true regardless of whether the projects can be repeated or not. a. True b. False ANSWER: False Think about the following equally risky projects. The cost of capital is WACC = 10% RATIONALE:

0 S −1,000 −1,000 L IRRS = 40.0% IRRL = 30.0%

1 2 3 1,400 378.34 378.34 378.34 NPVS = $272.73 NPVL = $647.77

S has the higher IRR, but L has a much higher NPV and is therefore preferable. If the project could be repeated, though, S would turn out to be better⎯it would have both a higher NPV and IRR.

Last month, Standard Systems analyzed the project whose cash flows are shown below. However, before the decision to accept or reject the project took place, the Federal Reserve changed interest rates and therefore the firm's cost of capital (r). The Fed's action did not affect the forecasted cash flows. By how much did the change in the r affect the project's forecasted NPV? Note that a project's expected NPV can be negative, in which case it should be rejected.

The IRR of normal Project X is greater than the IRR of normal Project Y, and both IRRs are greater than zero. Also, the NPV of X is greater than the NPV of Y at the cost of capital. If the two projects are mutually exclusive, Project X should definitely be selected, and the investment made, provided we have confidence in the data. Put another way, it is impossible to draw NPV profiles that would suggest not accepting Project X. a. True b. False ANSWER: False Project X may have a negative NPV if r > IRR. The NPV profile line crosses the horizontal RATIONALE: axis, and the NPV at the cost of capital is in the lower right quadrant.

One defect of the IRR method versus the NPV is that the IRR does not take proper account of differences in the sizes of projects. e. One defect of the IRR method versus the NPV is that the IRR does not take account of cash flows over a project's full life. ANSWER: d The IRR would rank a project that cost $100 and had a 100% IRR ahead of a project that RATIONALE: cost $1,000,000 and had an IRR of 90%. The larger project would increase the firm's value more, as the NPV would demonstrate.

One defect of the IRR method is that it does not take account of the cost of capital. c. One defect of the IRR method is that it values a dollar received today the same as a dollar that will not be received until sometime in the future. d. One defect of the IRR method is that it assumes that the cash flows to be received from a project can be reinvested at the IRR itself, and that assumption is often not valid. e. One defect of the IRR method is that it does not take account of cash flows over a project's full life. ANSWER: d The IRR assumes reinvestment at the IRR, and that is generally not as valid as assuming RATIONALE: reinvestment at the WACC, as with the NPV.

Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. If the cost of capital declines, this lowers a project's NPV. b. The NPV method is regarded by most academics as being the best indicator of a project's profitability; hence, most academics recommend that firms use only this one method. c. A project's NPV depends on the total amount of cash flows the project produces, but because the cash flows are discounted at the cost of capital, it does not matter if the cash flows occur early or late in the project's life. d. The NPV and IRR methods may give different recommendations regarding which of two mutually exclusive projects should be accepted, but they always give the same recommendation regarding the acceptability of a normal, independent project. e. The NPV method was once the favorite of academics and business executives, but today most authorities regard the MIRR as being the best indicator of a project's profitability. ANSWER: d Statement e is correct. The others are false. If you draw an NPV profile for one project, you RATIONALE: will see that if the WACC is less than the IRR, the NPV will be positive.

Projects A and B have identical expected lives and identical initial cash outflows (costs). However, most of one project's cash flows come in the early years, while most of the other project's cash flows occur in the later years. The two NPV profiles are given below:

Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. More of Project B's cash flows occur in the later years. b. We must have information on the cost of capital in order to determine which project has the larger early cash flows. c. The NPV profile graph is inconsistent with the statement made in the problem. d. The crossover rate, i.e., the rate at which Projects A and B have the same NPV, is greater than either project's IRR. e. More of Project A's cash flows occur in the later years. ANSWER: e Statement e is true and the other statements are false. Distant cash flows are more severely RATIONALE: penalized by high discount rates, so if the NPV profile line has a steep slope, this indicates that cash flows occur relatively late.

Projects S and L are both normal projects with an initial cost of $10,000, followed by a series of positive cash inflows. Project S's undiscounted net cash flows total $20,000, while L's total undiscounted flows are $30,000. At a cost of capital of 10%, the two projects have identical NPVs. Which project's NPV is more sensitive to changes in the cost of capital? a. Project L. b. Both projects are equally sensitive to changes in the cost of capital since their NPVs are equal at all costs of capital. c. Neither project is sensitive to changes in the discount rate, since both have NPV profiles that are horizontal. d. The solution cannot be determined because the problem gives us no information that can be used to determine the projects' relative IRRs. e. Project S. ANSWER: a Statement a is true, while the other statements are false. Since Project L's undiscounted CFs RATIONALE: are larger, they must occur in the more distant future, and since distant cash flows are impacted more by changes in the discount rate, L's NPV profile must be steeper. One can also see this in an NPV profile graph like the one in Question 50. The higher Y-axis intercept indicates more undiscounted CFs, and for the profiles to cross, the one with the higher intercept must be steeper.

Project C has a higher NPV if the cost of capital is less than 12%, whereas Project D has a higher NPV if the cost of capital exceeds 12%. Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. Project D is probably larger in scale than Project C. b. Project C probably has a faster payback. c. Project C probably has a higher IRR. d. The crossover rate between the two projects is below 12%. e. Project D probably has a higher IRR. ANSWER: e The NPV profiles cross at 12%. To the left, or at lower discount rates, C has the higher NPV, RATIONALE: so its slope is steeper, causing its profile to hit the X-axis sooner. This means that C has the lower IRR; hence, D has the higher IRR.

Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. To find the MIRR, we first compound cash flows at the regular IRR to find the TV, and then we discount the TV at the cost of capital to find the PV. b. The NPV and IRR methods both assume that cash flows can be reinvested at the cost of capital. However, the MIRR method assumes reinvestment at the MIRR itself. c. If two projects have the same cost, and if their NPV profiles cross in the upper right quadrant, then the project with the higher IRR probably has more of its cash flows coming in the later years. d. If two projects have the same cost, and if their NPV profiles cross in the upper right quadrant, then the project with the lower IRR probably has more of its cash flows coming in the later years. e. For a project with normal cash flows, any change in the cost of capital will change both the NPV and the IRR.

Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. One advantage of the NPV over the IRR is that NPV assumes that cash flows will be reinvested at the cost of capital, whereas IRR assumes that cash flows are reinvested at the IRR. The NPV assumption is generally more appropriate. b. One advantage of the NPV over the MIRR method is that NPV takes account of cash flows over a project's full life whereas MIRR does not. c. One advantage of the NPV over the MIRR method is that NPV discounts cash flows whereas the MIRR is based on undiscounted cash flows. d. Since cash flows under the IRR and MIRR are both discounted at the same rate (the cost of capital), these two methods always rank mutually exclusive projects in the same order. e. One advantage of the NPV over the IRR is that NPV takes account of cash flows over a project's full life whereas IRR does not. ANSWER: a Statement a is correct, and the others are false. Cash flows from a project can be used to RATIONALE: replace funds that would be raised in the market at the WACC, so the WACC is the opportunity cost for reinvested cash flows. Since the NPV assumes reinvestment at the WACC while the IRR assumes reinvestment at the IRR, NPV is generally the better method.

Ch 10 The Basics of Capital Budgeting: Evaluating Cash Flows b. If the cost of capital is 13%, Project S will have the lower NPV. c. If the cost of capital is 10%, both projects will have a negative NPV. d. Project S's NPV is more sensitive to changes in cost of capital than Project L's. e. If the cost of capital is 10%, both projects will have positive NPVs. ANSWER: e The easiest way to think about this question is to begin by drawing an NPV profile as shown RATIONALE: below, then using it to decide which statement is correct. Statement e is true, because both projects have an IRR greater than the WACC and thus will have a positive NPV. Statement a is false, because at 6%, the WACC is less than the crossover rate and Project L has a higher NPV than S. Statement b is false, because at 13% the WACC is greater than the crossover rate and S would have a higher NPV than L. Statement c is false, because of reasons mentioned in statement a. Statement d is false, because Project L's NPV profile is steeper, which means Project L's NPV is more sensitive to changes in WACC than Project S's NPV.

You are considering two mutually exclusive, equally risky, projects. Both have IRRs that exceed the cost of capital. Which of the following statements is CORRECT? Assume that the projects have normal cash flows, with one outflow followed by a series of inflows. a. If the cost of capital is greater than the crossover rate, then the IRR and the NPV criteria will not result in a conflict between the projects. The same project will rank higher by both criteria. b. If the cost of capital is less than the crossover rate, then the IRR and the NPV criteria will not result in a conflict between the projects. The same project will rank higher by both criteria. c. For a conflict to exist between NPV and IRR, the initial investment cost of one project must exceed the cost of the other. d. For a conflict to exist between NPV and IRR, one project must have an increasing stream of cash flows over time while the other has a decreasing stream. If both sets of cash flows are increasing or decreasing, then it would be impossible for a conflict to exist, even if one project is larger than the other. e. If the two projects' NPV profiles do not cross, then there will be a sharp conflict as to which one should be selected. ANSWER: a Again, it is useful to draw NPV profiles that fit the description given in the question. Any RATIONALE: numbers that meet the criteria will do. Statement a is true. Statement b is false. Statement c is false because a conflict can result from differences in the timing of the cash flows. Statement d is false because scale differences can result in profile crossovers and thus conflicts. Statement e is false, because if the profiles do not cross, then one will dominate the other, with both a higher IRR and a higher NPV at every discount rate.

You are on the staff of O'Hara Inc. The CFO believes project acceptance should be based on the NPV, but Andrew O'Hara, the president, insists that no project should be accepted unless its IRR exceeds the project's risk-adjusted cost of capital. Now you must make a recommendation on a project that has a cost of $15,000 and two cash flows: $110,000 at the end of Year 1 and −$100,000 at the end of Year 2. The president and the CFO both agree that the appropriate cost of capital for this project is 10%. At 10%, the NPV is $2,355.37, but you find two IRRs, one at 6.33% and one at 527%, and a MIRR of 11.32%. Which of the following statements best describes your optimal recommendation, i.e., the analysis and recommendation that is best for the company and least likely to get you in trouble with either the CFO or the president? a. You should recommend that the project be rejected because, although its NPV is positive, it has an IRR that is less than the cost of capital. b. You should recommend that the project be accepted because (1) its NPV is positive and (2) although it has two IRRs, in this case it would be better to focus on the MIRR, which exceeds the cost of capital. You should explain this to the president and tell him that the firm's value will increase if the project is accepted. c. You should recommend that the project be rejected. Although its NPV is positive it has two IRRs, one of which is less than the cost of capital, which indicates that the firm's value will decline if the project is accepted. d. You should recommend that the project be rejected because, although its NPV is positive, its MIRR is less than the cost of capital, and that indicates that the firm's value will decline if it is accepted. e. You should recommend that the project be rejected because its NPV is negative and its IRR is less than the cost of capital. ANSWER: b Statement b is true, while the other statements are false. It is not necessary to calculate the RATIONALE: two IRRs and the MIRR as the data in the problem are correct, but we show the Excel calculations below.

Consider projects S and L. Both have normal cash flows, and the projects have the same risk, hence both are evaluated with the same cost of capital, 10%. However, S has a higher IRR than L. Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. If Project S has a positive NPV, Project L must also have a positive NPV. b. If the cost of capital falls, each project's IRR will increase. c. If the cost of capital increases, each project's IRR will decrease. d. If Projects S and L have the same NPV at the current cost of capital, 10%, then Project L, the one with the lower IRR, would have a higher NPV if the cost of capital used to evaluate the projects declined. e. Project S must have a higher NPV than Project L. ANSWER: d Refer to the NPV profile below. Statement a is false, because if the WACC is greater than RATIONALE: IRRL but less than IRRS then Project S will have a positive NPV and Project L's NPV will be negative. Statements b and c are false, because IRR is independent of WACC. Statement d is true, because Project S has the higher IRR, so Project L's NPV profile is above Project S's when the WACC is less than the crossover rate. Statement e is false, because you do not know which project has the higher NPV unless you know the WACC.

Clifford Company is choosing between two projects. The larger project has an initial cost of $100,000, annual cash flows of $30,000 for 5 years, and an IRR of 15.24%. The smaller project has an initial cost of $50,000, annual cash flows of $16,000 for 5 years, and an IRR of 16.63%. The projects are equally risky. Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. Since the smaller project has the higher IRR, the two projects' NPV profiles will cross, and the larger project will look better based on the NPV at all positive values of the cost of capital. b. If the company uses the NPV method, it will tend to favor smaller, shorter-term projects over larger, longerterm projects, regardless of how high or low the cost of capital is. c.

Martin Manufacturing is considering two normal, equally risky, mutually exclusive, but not repeatable projects. Martin's cost of capital is 10%. The two projects have the same investment costs, but Project A has an IRR of 15%, while Project B has an IRR of 20%. Assuming the projects' NPV profiles cross in the upper right quadrant, which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. Since the projects are mutually exclusive, the firm should always select Project B. b. If the crossover rate is 8%, Project B will have the higher NPV. c. Only one project has a positive NPV. d. If the crossover rate is 8%, Project A will have the higher NPV. e. Each project must have a negative NPV. ANSWER: b Statement b is true, while the other statements are false. If we draw an NPV profile graph, we RATIONALE: would see that A must have the steeper slope. If the crossover is 8% and the WACC is 10%, then B will have the higher NPV.

Projects A and B are mutually exclusive and have normal cash flows. Project A has an IRR of 15% and B's IRR is 20%. The company's cost of capital is 12%, and at that rate Project A has the higher NPV. Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. Assuming the timing pattern of the two projects' cash flows is the same, Project B probably has a higher cost (and larger scale). b. Assuming the two projects have the same scale, Project B probably has a faster payback than Project A. c. The crossover rate for the two projects must be 12%. d. Since B has the higher IRR, then it must also have the higher NPV if the crossover rate is less than the cost of capital of 12%. e. The crossover rate for the two projects must be less than 12%. ANSWER: b Consider the following NPV profile graph: RATIONALE: We can see that statements c, d, and e are incorrect. Statement a is also incorrect, because if the projects have the same timing pattern, then A must have the higher cost. That leaves statement b as being correct, and that conclusion is confirmed by noting that since A have the steeper slope, its cash flows must come in slower; hence, B's cash flows come in more quickly and thus has the faster payback.

Current Design Co. is considering two mutually exclusive, equally risky, and not repeatable projects, S and L. Their cash flows are shown below. The CEO believes the IRR is the best selection criterion, while the CFO advocates the NPV. If the decision is made by choosing the project with the higher IRR rather than the one with the higher NPV, how much, if any, value will be forgone, i.e., what's the chosen NPV versus the maximum possible NPV? Note that (1) "true value" is measured by NPV, and (2) under some conditions the choice of IRR vs. NPV will have no effect on the value gained or lost. r: 7.50% Year 0 1 2 3 4 −$1,100 $550 $600 $100 $100 CFS −$2,700 $650 $725 $800 $1,400 CFL a. $138.10 b. $149.21 c. $160.31 d. $171.42 e. $182.52 ANSWER: a First, recognize that NPV makes theoretically correct capital budgeting decisions, so the RATIONALE: highest NPV tells us how much value could be added. We calculate the two projects' NPVs, IRRs, and MIRRs, but the MIRR information is not needed for this problem. We then see what NPV would result if the decision were based on the IRR (and the MIRR). The difference between the NPVs is the loss incurred if the IRR criterion is used. Of course, it's possible that IRR could choose the correct project.

In other words, what's the NPV of the chosen project versus the maximum possible NPV? Note that (1) "true value" is measured by NPV, and (2) under some conditions the choice of IRR vs. MIRR will have no effect on the value lost. r =7.00% Year 0 1 2 3 4 −$1,100 $550 $600 $100 $100 CFS −$2,750 $725 $725 $800 $1,400 CFL a. $185.90 b. $197.01 c. $208.11 d. $219.22 e. $230.32 ANSWER: a First, recognize that NPV makes theoretically correct capital budgeting decisions, so the RATIONALE: higher NPV tells us how much value could be added. We calculate the two projects' NPVs, IRRs, and MIRRs. We then see what NPV would result if the decision were based on the IRR and the MIRR. Under some conditions, MIRR will choose the project with the higher NPV while the IRR chooses the lower NPV project. Then, the difference between the NPVs is the loss incurred if the IRR criterion is used. Of course, it's possible that both the MIRR and the IRR could choose the wrong project; with this set of cash flows, that happens at 8.62133% < WACC < 10.53093%.

A project's MIRR is always less than its regular IRR. b. If a project's IRR is greater than its cost of capital, then the MIRR will be less than the IRR. c. If a project's IRR is greater than its cost of capital, then the MIRR will be greater than the IRR. d. To find a project's MIRR, we compound cash inflows at the IRR and then discount the terminal value back to t = 0 at the cost of capital. e. A project's MIRR is always greater than its regular IRR. ANSWER: b One could prove that (1) if the IRR is equal to the WACC, then the MIRR and the IRR will be RATIONALE: equal, (2) if the IRR is greater than the WACC, the MIRR will be less than the IRR, and (3) the MIRR will be greater than the IRR if the IRR is less than the WACC. This situation exists because the MIRR assumes reinvestment at the WACC and therefore compounds at that rate, while the IRR assumes reinvestment at the IRR itself and therefore compounds at the IRR. Therefore, if the IRR exceeds the WACC, the TV found under the IRR method will be larger, and vice versa. The IRR and the MIRR are found as the rate that causes the PV of the TV to equal the cost. Therefore, if the IRR exceeds the WACC, causing the IRR's TV to be larger, then the IRR will exceed the MIRR, and vice versa. As a result, statement b is Cengage Learning Testing, Powered by Cognero

Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. The discounted payback method recognizes all cash flows over a project's life, and it also adjusts these cash flows to account for the time value of money. b. The regular payback method was, years ago, widely used, but virtually no companies even calculate the payback today. c. The regular payback is useful as an indicator of a project's liquidity because it gives managers an idea of how long it will take to recover the funds invested in a project. d. The regular payback does not consider cash flows beyond the payback year, but the discounted payback overcomes this defect. e. The regular payback method recognizes all cash flows over a project's life. ANSWER: c Statement d is true. The payback does indicate how long it should take to recover the RATIONALE: investment; hence, it is a measure of liquidity.

Ch 10 The Basics of Capital Budgeting: Evaluating Cash Flows b. The firm will accept too many projects in all economic states because a 4-year payback is too low. c. The firm will accept too few projects in all economic states because a 4-year payback is too high. d. If the 4-year payback results in accepting just the right set of projects under average economic conditions, then this payback will result in too few long-term projects when the economy is weak. e. It will accept too many short-term projects and reject too many long-term projects (as judged by the NPV). ANSWER: d Statement d is correct. In a weak economy, the interest rates and the WACC are likely to be RATIONALE: low, and these conditions favor long-term projects. But the constant 4-year payback would not recognize this situation.

Suppose a firm's CFO thinks that an externality is present in a project, but that it cannot be quantified with any precision⎯estimates of its effect would really just be guesses. In this case, the externality should be ignored⎯i.e., not considered at all⎯because if it were considered it would make the analysis appear more precise than it really is. a. True b. False ANSWER: False If the externality is potentially important, it should not be ignored, because then a large error RATIONALE: might be made. At the very least, it should be discussed, and possibly the analysis should be done using several scenarios of the possible effects of the externality.

While developing a new product line, Cook Company spent $3 million two years ago to build a plant for a new product. It then decided not to go forward with the project, so the building is available for sale or for a new product. Cook owns the building free and clear⎯there is no mortgage on it. Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. If the building could be sold, then the after-tax proceeds that would be generated by any such sale should be charged as a cost to any new project that would use it. b. This is an example of an externality, because the very existence of the building affects the cash flows for any new project that Rowell might consider. c. Since the building was built in the past, its cost is a sunk cost and thus need not be considered when new projects are being evaluated, even if it would be used by those new projects. d. If there is a mortgage loan on the building, then the interest on that loan would have to be charged to any new project that used the building. e. Since the building has been paid for, it can be used by another project with no additional cost. Therefore, it should not be reflected in the cash flows for any new project.

Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. In a capital budgeting analysis where part of the funds used to finance the project would be raised as debt, failure to include interest expense as a cost when determining the project's cash flows will lead to a downward bias in the NPV. b. The existence of any type of "externality" will reduce the calculated NPV versus the NPV that would exist without the externality. c. If one of the assets to be used by a potential project is already owned by the firm, and if that asset could be sold or leased to another firm if the new project were not undertaken, then the net after-tax proceeds that could be obtained should be charged as a cost to the project under consideration. d. If one of the assets to be used by a potential project is already owned by the firm but is not being used, then any costs associated with that asset is a sunk cost and should be ignored. e. In a capital budgeting analysis where part of the funds used to finance the project would be raised as debt, failure to include interest expense as a cost when determining the project's cash flows will lead to an upward bias in the NPV. ANSWER: c Regarding e and a, note that since interest should not be considered, exclusion will not lead RATIONALE: to any type of bias, positive or negative.

Accelerated depreciation has an advantage for profitable firms in that it moves some cash flows forward, thus increasing their present value. On the other hand, using accelerated depreciation generally lowers the reported current year's profits because of the higher depreciation expenses. However, the reported profits problem can be solved by using different depreciation methods for tax and stockholder reporting purposes. Cengage Learning Testing, Powered by Cognero

Ch 11 Cash Flow Estimation and Risk Analysis 42. Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. Under current laws and regulations, corporations must use straight-line depreciation for all assets whose lives are 3 years or longer. b. If firms use accelerated depreciation, they will write off assets slower than they would under straight-line depreciation, and as a result projects' forecasted NPVs are normally lower than they would be if straight-line depreciation were required for tax purposes. c. If they use accelerated depreciation, firms can write off assets faster than they could under straight-line depreciation, and as a result projects' forecasted NPVs are normally lower than they would be if straight-line depreciation were required for tax purposes. d. If they use accelerated depreciation, firms can write off assets faster than they could under straight-line depreciation, and as a result projects' forecasted NPVs are normally higher than they would be if straight-line depreciation were required for tax purposes. e. Since depreciation is not a cash expense, and since cash flows and not accounting income are the relevant input, depreciation plays no role in capital budgeting.

To increase productive capacity, a company is considering a proposed new plant. Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. Since depreciation is a non-cash expense, the firm does not need to deal with depreciation when calculating the operating cash flows. b. When estimating the project's operating cash flows, it is important to include both opportunity costs and sunk costs, but the firm should ignore the cash flow effects of externalities since they are accounted for in the discounting process. c. Capital budgeting decisions should be based on before-tax cash flows. d. The cost of capital used to discount cash flows in a capital budgeting analysis should be calculated on a before-tax basis. e. In calculating the project's operating cash flows, the firm should not deduct financing costs such as interest expense, because financing costs are accounted for by discounting at the cost of capital.

Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. Only incremental cash flows are relevant in project analysis, the proper incremental cash flows are the reported accounting profits, and thus reported accounting income should be used as the basis for investor and managerial decisions. b. It is unrealistic to believe that any increases in net working capital required at the start of an expansion project can be recovered at the project's completion. Working capital like inventory is almost always used up in operations. Thus, cash flows associated with working capital should be included only at the start of a project's life. c. If equipment is expected to be sold for more than its book value at the end of a project's life, this will result in a profit. In this case, despite taxes on the profit, the end-of-project cash flow will be greater than if the asset had been sold at book value, other things held constant. d. Changes in net working capital refer to changes in current assets and current liabilities, not to changes in longterm assets and liabilities. Therefore, changes in net working capital should not be considered in a capital budgeting analysis. e. If an asset is sold for less than its book value at the end of a project's life, it will generate a loss for the firm, hence its terminal cash flow will be negative.

Weston Clothing Company is considering manufacturing a new style of shirt, whose data are shown below. The equipment to be used would be depreciated by the straight-line method over its 3-year life and would have a zero salvage value, and no new working capital would be required. Revenues and other operating costs are expected to be constant over the project's 3-year life. However, this project would compete with other Weston's products and would reduce their pretax annual cash flows. What is the project's NPV? (Hint: Cash flows are constant in Years 1-3.)

Sylvester Media is analyzing an average-risk project, and the following data have been developed. Unit sales will be constant, but the sales price should increase with inflation. Fixed costs will also be constant, but variable costs should rise with inflation. The project should last for 3 years, it will be depreciated on a straight-line basis, and there will be no salvage value. This is just one of many projects for the firm, so any losses can be used to offset gains on other firm projects. The marketing manager does not think it is necessary to adjust for inflation since both the sales price and the variable costs will rise at the same rate, but the CFO thinks an adjustment is required.

Tallant Technologies is considering two potential projects, X and Y. In assessing the projects' risks, the company estimated the beta of each project versus both the company's other assets and the stock market, and it also conducted thorough scenario and simulation analyses. This research produced the following data: Expected NPV Standard deviation (σNPV) Project beta (vs. market)

Project X $500,000 $200,000 1.4

Project Y $500,000 $250,000 0.8

Correlation of the project cash flows with cash flows from currently existing projects. Cash flows are not correlated with the cash flows from existing projects. Cash flows are highly correlated with the cash flows from existing projects. Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. Project X has more corporate (or within-firm) risk than Project Y. b. Project X has more market risk than Project Y. c. Project X has the same level of corporate risk as Project Y. d. Project X has less market risk than Project Y.

Ch 11 Cash Flow Estimation and Risk Analysis e. Project X has more stand-alone risk than Project Y. ANSWER: b Statement b is true, while the other statements are false. Stand-alone risk is measured by RATIONALE: standard deviation. Therefore, since Y's standard deviation is higher than X's, Y has higher stand-alone risk than X. Statement a is false because corporate risk is affected by the correlation of project cash flows with other company cash flows, and since Y's cash flows are more highly correlated with the cash flows of existing projects than X's, Y has more corporate risk than X. Market risk is measured by beta. Therefore, since X's beta is greater than Y's, statement b is true.

Wansley Enterprises is considering a new project. The company has a beta of 1.0, and its sales and profits are positively correlated with the overall economy. The company estimates that the proposed new project would have a higher standard deviation and coefficient of variation than an average company project. Also, the new project's sales would be countercyclical in the sense that they would be high when the overall economy is down and low when the overall economy is strong. On the basis of this information, which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. The proposed new project would increase the firm's corporate risk. b. The proposed new project would increase the firm's market risk. c. The proposed new project would not affect the firm's risk at all. d. The proposed new project would have less stand-alone risk than the firm's typical project. e. The proposed new project would have more stand-alone risk than the firm's typical project. ANSWER: e Statement e is true because the project has a relatively high standard deviation and thus RATIONALE: more stand-alone risk than average. The project's revenues would be countercyclical to the rest of the firm's and to other firms' revenues, hence its within-firm and market risks would be relatively low.

Spot-Free Car Wash is considering a new project whose data are shown below. The equipment to be used has a 3-year tax life, would be depreciated on a straight-line basis over the project's 3-year life, and would have a zero salvage value after Year 3. No new working capital would be required. Revenues and other operating costs will be constant over the project's life, and this is just one of the firm's many projects, so any losses on it can be used to offset profits in other units.

Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. In comparing two projects using sensitivity analysis, the one with the steeper lines would be considered less risky, because a small error in estimating a variable such as unit sales would produce only a small error in the project's NPV. b. The primary advantage of simulation analysis over scenario analysis is that scenario analysis requires a relatively powerful computer, coupled with an efficient financial planning software package, whereas simulation analysis can be done efficiently using a PC with a spreadsheet program or even with just a calculator. c. Sensitivity analysis is a type of risk analysis that considers both the sensitivity of NPV to changes in key input variables and the probability of occurrence of these variables' values.

Which of the following procedures does the text say is used most frequently by businesses when they do capital budgeting analyses? a. Differential project risk cannot be accounted for by using "risk-adjusted discount rates" because it is highly subjective and difficult to justify. It is better to not risk adjust at all. b. Other things held constant, if returns on a project are thought to be positively correlated with the returns on other firms in the economy, then the project's NPV will be found using a lower discount rate than would be appropriate if the project's returns were negatively correlated. c. Monte Carlo simulation uses a computer to generate random sets of inputs, those inputs are then used to determine a trial NPV, and a number of trial NPVs are averaged to find the project's expected NPV. Sensitivity and scenario analyses, on the other hand, require much more information regarding the input variables, including probability distributions and correlations among those variables. This makes it easier to implement a simulation analysis than a scenario or a sensitivity analysis, hence simulation is the most frequently used procedure. d. DCF techniques were originally developed to value passive investments (stocks and bonds). However, capital budgeting projects are not passive investments⎯managers can often take positive actions after the investment has been made that alter the cash flow stream. Opportunities for such actions are called real options. Real options are valuable, but this value is not captured by conventional NPV analysis. Therefore, a project's real options must be considered separately. e. The firm's corporate, or overall, WACC is used to discount all project cash flows to find the projects' NPVs. Then, depending on how risky different projects are judged to be, the calculated NPVs are scaled up or down to adjust for differential risk. ANSWER: d Cengage Learning Testing, Powered by Cognero

Ch 12 Financial Planning and Applications to Corporate Valuation terms held equal). d. The company discovers that it has excess capacity in its fixed assets. e. A sharp increase in its forecasted sales. ANSWER: e RATIONALE: Answer e is obviously correct. A switch to a just-in-time inventory system and outsourcing production would lower the firm's capital intensity ratio, which would lower AFN. Note that with a longer credit period (and all other terms held equal) offered by the new supplier, accounts payable will either go up or remain the same, but definitely not go down. Therefore, changing to the new supplier will not increase AFN.

Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. Suppose a firm is operating its fixed assets at below 100% of capacity, but it has no excess current assets. Based on the AFN equation, its AFN will be larger than if it had been operating with excess capacity in both fixed and current assets. b. If a firm retains all of its earnings, then it cannot require any additional funds to support sales growth. c. Additional funds needed (AFN) are typically raised using a combination of notes payable, long-term debt, and common stock. Such funds are non-spontaneous in the sense that they require explicit financing decisions to obtain them. d. If a firm has a positive free cash flow, then it must have either a zero or a negative AFN. e. Since accounts payable and accrued liabilities must eventually be paid off, as these accounts increase, AFN as calculated by the AFN equation must also increase.

Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. The AFN equation for forecasting funds requirements requires only a forecast of the firm's balance sheet. Although a forecasted income statement may help clarify the results, income statement data are not essential because funds needed relate only to the balance sheet.

Ch 12 Financial Planning and Applications to Corporate Valuation b. Dividends are paid with cash taken from the accumulated retained earnings account, hence dividend policy does not affect the AFN forecast. c. A negative AFN indicates that retained earnings and spontaneous liabilities are far more than sufficient to finance the additional assets needed. d. If the ratios of assets to sales and spontaneous liabilities to sales do not remain constant, then the AFN equation will provide more accurate forecasts than the forecasted financial statements method. e. Any forecast of financial requirements involves determining how much money the firm will need, and this need is determined by adding together increases in assets and spontaneous liabilities and then subtracting operating income.

Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. If a firm's assets are growing at a positive rate, but its retained earnings are not increasing, then it would be impossible for the firm's AFN to be negative. b. If a firm increases its dividend payout ratio in anticipation of higher earnings, but sales and earnings actually decrease, then the firm's actual AFN must, mathematically, exceed the previously calculated AFN. c. Higher sales usually require higher asset levels, and this leads to what we call AFN. However, the AFN will be zero if the firm chooses to retain all of its profits, i.e., to have a zero dividend payout ratio. d. Dividend policy does not affect the requirement for external funds based on the AFN equation. e. The sustainable growth rate is the maximum achievable growth rate without the firm having to raise external funds. In other words, it is the growth rate at which the firm's AFN equals zero.

Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. The first, and perhaps the most critical, step in forecasting financial requirements is to forecast future sales. b. Forecasted financial statements, as discussed in the text, are used primarily as a part of the managerial compensation program, where management's historical performance is evaluated. c. The capital intensity ratio gives us an idea of the physical condition of the firm's fixed assets. d. The AFN equation produces more accurate forecasts than the forecasted financial statement method, especially if fixed assets are lumpy, economies of scale exist, or if excess capacity exists. e.

Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. When fixed assets are added in large, discrete units as a company grows, the assumption of constant ratios is more appropriate than if assets are relatively small and can be added in small increments as sales grow. b. Firms whose fixed assets are "lumpy" frequently have excess capacity, and this should be accounted for in the financial forecasting process. c. For a firm that uses lumpy assets, it is impossible to have small increases in sales without expanding fixed assets. d. There are economies of scale in the use of many kinds of assets. When economies occur the ratios are likely to remain constant over time as the size of the firm increases. The Economic Ordering Quantity model for establishing inventory levels demonstrates this relationship. e.

Ch 14 Distributions to Shareholders: Dividends and Repurchases 1. Which of the following statements is correct? a. One advantage of dividend reinvestment plans is that they enable investors to postpone paying taxes on the dividends credited to their account. b. Stock repurchases can be used by a firm that wants to increase its debt ratio. c. Stock repurchases make sense if a company expects to have a lot of profitable new projects to fund over the next few years, provided investors are aware of these investment opportunities. d. One advantage of an open market dividend reinvestment plan is that it provides new equity capital and increases the shares outstanding. e. One disadvantage of dividend reinvestment plans is that they increase transactions costs for investors who want to increase their ownership in the company.

Which of the following statements is correct? a. One nice feature of dividend reinvestment plans (DRIPs) is that they reduce the taxes investors would have to pay if they received cash dividends. b. Empirical research indicates that, in general, companies send a negative signal to the marketplace when they announce an increase in the dividend, and as a result share prices fall when dividend increases are announced. The reason is that investors interpret the increase as a signal that the firm has relatively few good investment opportunities. c. If a company wants to raise new equity capital rather steadily over time, a new stock dividend reinvestment plan would make sense. However, if the firm does not want or need new equity, then an open market purchase dividend reinvestment plan would probably make more sense. d. Dividend reinvestment plans have not caught on in most industries, and today about 99% of all companies with DRIPs are utilities. e. Under the tax laws as they existed in 2008, a dollar received for repurchased stock must be taxed at the same rate as a dollar received as dividends.

Which of the following statements is correct? a. If a company uses the residual dividend model to determine its dividend payments, dividends payout will tend to increase whenever its profitable investment opportunities increase. b. The stronger management thinks the clientele effect is, the more likely the firm is to adopt a strict version of the residual dividend model. c. Large stock repurchases financed by debt tend to increase earnings per share, but they also increase the firm's financial risk. d. A dollar paid out to repurchase stock is taxed at the same rate as a dollar paid out in dividends.

Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. Back before the SEC was created in the 1930s, companies would declare reverse splits in order to boost their stock prices. However, this was determined to be a deceptive practice, and it is illegal today. b. Stock splits create more administrative problems for investors than stock dividends, especially determining the tax basis of their shares when they decide to sell them, so today stock dividends are used far more often than stock splits. c. When a company declares a stock split, the price of the stock typically declines⎯by about 50% after a 2-for-1 split⎯and this necessarily reduces the total market value of the equity. d. If a firm's stock price is quite high relative to most stocks⎯say $500 per share⎯then it can declare a stock split of say 10-for-1 so as to bring the price down to something close to $50. Moreover, if the price is relatively low⎯say $2 per share⎯then it can declare a "reverse split" of say 1-for-25 so as to bring the price up to somewhere around $50 per share. e. When firms are deciding on the size of stock splits⎯say whether to declare a 2-for-1 split or a 3-for-1 split, it is best to declare the smaller one, in this case the 2-for-1 split, because then the after-split price will be higher than if the 3-for-1 split had been used.

Blueline Publishers is considering a recapitalization plan. It is currently 100% equity financed but under the plan it would issue long-term debt with a yield of 9% and use the proceeds to repurchase common stock. The recapitalization would not change the company's total assets, nor would it affect the firm's basic earning power, which is currently 15%. The CFO believes that this recapitalization would reduce the WACC and increase stock price. Which of the following would also be likely to occur if the company goes ahead with the recapitalization plan? a. The company's earnings per share would decline. b. The company's cost of equity would increase. c. The company's ROA would increase. d. The company's ROE would decline. Cengage Learning Testing, Powered by Cognero

Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. There is no reason to think that changes in the personal tax rate would affect firms' capital structure decisions. b. A firm with high business risk is more likely to increase its use of financial leverage than a firm with low business risk, assuming all else equal. c. If a firm's after-tax cost of equity exceeds its after-tax cost of debt, it can always reduce its WACC by increasing its use of debt. d. Suppose a firm has less than its optimal amount of debt. Increasing its use of debt to the point where it is at its optimal capital structure will decrease the costs of both debt and equity financing. e. In general, a firm with low operating leverage also has a small proportion of its total costs in the form of fixed costs.

Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. A change in the personal tax rate should not affect firms' capital structure decisions. b. "Business risk" is differentiated from "financial risk" by the fact that financial risk reflects only the use of debt, while business risk reflects both the use of debt and such factors as sales variability, cost variability, and operating leverage. c. The optimal capital structure is the one that simultaneously (1) maximizes the price of the firm's stock, (2) minimizes its WACC, and (3) maximizes its EPS. d. If changes in the bankruptcy code make bankruptcy less costly to corporations, then this would likely reduce the debt ratio of the average corporation. Cengage Learning Testing, Powered by Cognero

Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. The capital structure that minimizes a firm's weighted average cost of capital is also the capital structure that maximizes its stock price. b. The capital structure that minimizes the firm's weighted average cost of capital is also the capital structure that maximizes its earnings per share. c. If a firm finds that the cost of debt is less than the cost of equity, increasing its debt ratio must reduce its WACC. d. Other things held constant, if corporate tax rates declined, then the Modigliani-Miller tax-adjusted tradeoff theory would suggest that firms should increase their use of debt. e. A firm can use retained earnings without paying a flotation cost. Therefore, while the cost of retained earnings is not zero, its cost is generally lower than the after-tax cost of debt.

40% 0% 10% 1.00× $3.20

The company has no growth opportunities (g = 0), so the company pays out all of its earnings as dividends (EPS = DPS). The consultant believes that if the company moves to a capital structure financed with 20% debt and 80% equity (based on market values) that the cost of equity will increase to 11% and that the pre-tax cost of debt will be 10%. If the company makes this change, what would be the total market value (in millions) of the firm? a. $3,200 b. $3,600 c. $4,000 d. $4,200 e. $4,800 ANSWER: e RATIONALE: Step 1: Find the new WACC:

WACC = wcrs + wd(1 − T)rd = (0.8(0.11)) + (0.2(1 − 0.4)0.10) = 0.10. Step 2:

Find the free cash flow: Because there is no growth, there is no investment in capital, hence FCF is equal to NOPAT: FCF = NOPAT − Investment in capital = EBIT(1 − T) −0 = $800(1 − 0.4) = $480 million.

Step 3: Find the new value of the firm: V = FCF/(WACC − g) = $480/0.10 = $4,800 million. POINTS:

The risk-free rate is 6% and the market risk premium, rM − rRF, is 5%. Currently the company's cost of equity, which is based on the CAPM, is 12% and its tax rate is 40%. What would be Cartwright's estimated cost of equity if it were to change its capital structure to 50% debt and 50% equity? a. 13.00% b. 13.64% c. 14.35% d. 14.72% e. 15.60% ANSWER: c RATIONALE: Facts given: rs = 12%; D/E = 0.25; rRF = 6%; RPM = 5%; T = 40%.

Step 1: Find the firm's current levered beta using the CAPM: rs= rRF + RPM(b) 12%= 6% + 5%(b) b= 1.2. Step 2: Find the firm's unlevered beta using the Hamada equation: b= bU[1 + (1 − T)(D/E)] 1.2= bU[1 + (0.6)(0.25)] 1.2= 1.15bU 1.0435= bU. Step 3:

Find the new levered beta given the new capital structure using the Hamada equation: b= bU[1 + (1 − T)(D/E)] = 1.0435[1 + (0.6)(1)] = 1.6696.

LeCompte Learning Solutions is considering making a change to its capital structure in hopes of increasing its value. The company's capital structure consists of debt and common stock. In order to estimate the cost of debt, the company has produced the following table: Percent financed with debt (wd) 0.10 0.20 0.30 0.40 0.50

Percent financed with equity (wc) 0.90 0.80 0.70 0.60 0.50

Debt-to-equity ratio (D/S) 0.10/0.90 = 0.11 0.20/0.80 = 0.25 0.30/0.70 = 0.43 0.40/0.60 = 0.67 0.50/0.50 = 1.00

Bond Rating AAA AA A BBB BB

Before-tax cost of debt 7.0% 7.2 8.0 8.8 9.6

The company uses the CAPM to estimate its cost of common equity, rs. The risk-free rate is 5% and the market risk premium is 6%. LeCompte estimates that if it had no debt its beta would be 1.0. (Its "unlevered beta," bU, equals 1.0.) The company's tax rate, T, is 40%. On the basis of this information, what is LeCompte's optimal capital structure, and what is the firm's cost of capital at this optimal capital structure? a. wc = 0.9; wd = 0.1; WACC = 14.96% b. wc = 0.8; wd = 0.2; WACC = 10.96% c. wc = 0.7; wd = 0.3; WACC = 7.83% d. wc = 0.6; wd = 0.4; WACC = 10.15% e. wc = 0.5; wd = 0.5; WACC = 10.18% ANSWER:

Ch 15 Capital Structure Decisions RATIONALE:

rRF = 5%; rM − rRF = 6%. rs = rRF + (rM − rRF)b. WACC = rd × wd × (1 − T) + rs × wc. You need to use the D/E ratio given for each capital structure to find the levered beta using the Hamada equation. Then, use each of these betas with the CAPM to find the rs for that capital structure. Use this rs and rd for each capital structure to find the WACC. The optimal capital structure is the one that minimizes the WACC.

b = bU[1 + (1 − T)(D/E)] 0.11 1.0667 0.25 1.1500 0.43 1.2571 0.67 1.4000 1.00 1.6000 For example, if the D/E is 0.11: (D/E)

rs = rRF + (rM − WACC wc rd wd rRF)b 11.4005% 0.9 7.0% 0.1 10.68% 11.9000 0.8 7.2 0.2 10.38 12.5429 0.7 8.0 0.3 10.22 13.4000 0.6 8.8 0.4 10.15 14.6000 0.5 9.6 0.5 10.18 b = 1.0[1 + (1 − T)(D/E)] = 1.0[1 + (1 − 0.4)(0.1111)] = 1.0667. rs = rRF + (rM − rRF)b = 5% + 6%(1.0667) = 11.40%.

The weights are given at 0.9 and 0.1 for equity and debt, respectively, and the rd for that capital structure is given as 7%.

WACC

= rd × wd × (1 − T) + rs × wc = 7% × 0.1 × (1 − 0.4) + 11.40% × 0.9 = 10.68%.

Do the same calculation for each of the capital structures and find each WACC. The optimal capital structure is the one that minimizes the WACC, which is 10.15%. Therefore, the optimal capital structure is 40% debt and 60% equity.

The company would issue new bonds and use the proceeds to buy back shares of its common stock. The company's CFO thinks the plan will not change total assets or operating income, but that it will increase earnings per share (EPS). Assuming the CFO's estimates are correct, which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. If the plan reduces the WACC, the stock price is also likely to decline. b. Since the plan is expected to increase EPS, this implies that net income is also expected to increase. c. If the plan does increase the EPS, the stock price will automatically increase at the same rate. d. Under the plan there will be more bonds outstanding, and that will increase their liquidity and thus lower the interest rate on the currently outstanding bonds. e. Since the proposed plan increases Daylight's financial risk, the company's stock price still might fall even if EPS increases.

Its earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) are $100,000, and it is a zero growth company. AJC's current cost of equity is 8.8%, and its tax rate is 40%. The firm has 10,000 shares of common stock outstanding selling at a price per share of $60.00. 80. Refer to the data for the Anson Jackson Court Company (AJC). Now assume that AJC is considering changing from its original capital structure to a new capital structure that results in a stock price of $64 per share. The resulting capital structure would have a $336,000 total market value of equity and a $504,000 market value of debt. How many shares would AJC repurchase in the recapitalization? a. 4,250 b. 4,500 c. 4,750 d. 5,000 e. 5,250 ANSWER: c RATIONALE: First, find the number of shares remaining: n = S/P = $336,000/$64 = 5,250.

Ch 15 Capital Structure Decisions 81. Refer to the data for the Anson Jackson Court Company (AJC). Now assume that AJC is considering changing from its original capital structure to a new capital structure with 50% debt and 50% equity. If it makes this change, its resulting market value would be $820,000. What would be its new stock price per share? a. $58 b. $59 c. $60 d. $61 e. $62 ANSWER: e RATIONALE: Step 1. Find the new value of equity and debt after the recapitalization: S = wcV = 0.5($820,000) = $410,000. D = wdV = 0.5($820,000) = $410,000. Step 2.

Find the new price per share after the recapitalization: P= [S+ (D − D0)]/n0 = [$410,000 + ($410,000 − $200,000)]/10,000 = $62.

In managing a firm's accounts receivable, it is possible to increase credit sales per day yet still keep accounts receivable fairly steady, provided the firm can shorten the length of its collection period (its DSO) sufficiently. b. Because of the costs of granting credit, it is not possible for credit sales to be more profitable than cash sales. c. Since receivables and payables both result from sales transactions, a firm with a high receivables-to-sales ratio must also have a high payables-to-sales ratio. d. Other things held constant, if a firm can shorten its DSO, this will lead to a higher current ratio. e.

Which of the following statements is CORRECT? a. Conservative firms generally use no short-term debt and thus have zero current liabilities. b. A short-term loan can usually be obtained more quickly than a long-term loan, but the cost of short-term debt is normally higher than that of long-term debt. c. If a firm that can borrow from its bank at a 6% interest rate buys materials on terms of 2/10 net 30, and if it must pay by Day 30 or else be cut off, then we would expect to see zero accounts payable on its balance sheet. d. If one of your firm's customers is "stretching" its accounts payable, this may be a nuisance but it will not have an adverse financial impact on your firm if the customer periodically pays off its entire balance. e. Under normal conditions, a firm's expected ROE would probably be higher if it financed with short-term rather than with long-term debt, but using short-term debt would probably increase the firm's risk.

Financial calculator solution: Calculate the required payments in Mexican pesos: Inputs: N = 4; I/YR = 5; PV = −5,750,000; FV = 0. Output: PMT = 1,621,568 MP. 1,621,568 Mexican pesos are needed on each payment date. At the initial exchange rate of 5.75 pesos/US$, the payments are approximately US $282,012. Payment in U.S. dollars after conversion = 1,621,568 pesos/(5.75 FF/US$) = $282,011.83. However, at an exchange rate of 5.10 pesos/US$, the cost to the firm in US$ increases to 1,621,568/5.10 = $317,954.51 ≈ $317,955. Calculate nominal annual interest rate on loan: Inputs: N = 4; PV = −1,000,000; PMT = 317,955; FV = 0. Output: I/YR = 10.36% semiannual rate. Annual nominal rate = 10.36(2) = 20.72%.

The firm forecasts total cash inflows of $4 million per year for 2 years, $6 million for the next 2 years, and then a possible terminal value of $8 million. In addition, due to political risk factors, Tashakori believes that there is a 50% chance that the gross terminal value will be only $2 million and a 50% chance that it will be $8 million. However, the government of the host country will block 20% of all cash flows. Thus, cash flows that can be repatriated are 80% of those projected.

Suppose 90-day investments in Britain have a 6% annualized return and a 1.5% quarterly (90-day) return. In the U.S., 90-day investments of similar risk have a 4% annualized return and a 1% quarterly (90-day) return. In the 90-day forward market, 1 British pound equals $1.65. If interest rate parity holds, what is the spot exchange rate? a. 1 pound = $1.8000 b. 1 pound = $1.6582 c. 1 pound = $1.0000 d. 1 pound = $0.8500 e. 1 pound = $0.6031 ANSWER: b RATIONALE: From the interest rate parity formula it follows that e0 = (ft)(1 + rf)/(1 + rh) = (1.65 dollars/pound)(1.015)/(1.01) = 1.6582 dollars/pound. Another way to think of this is $1 invested today in the United States yields $1.01 90 days from now. Alternatively, investors could put their money in British securities. In this case, the investor would exchange today $1 for (1/1.6582) or 0.6031 pounds in the spot market. This money could be invested in Britain and after 90 days this investment would be worth 0.6031(1.015) = 0.6121 pounds. Given the forward exchange rate, 0.6121 pounds is worth $1.01 90 days from now (0.6121 × 1.65 = $1.01).

Suppose 1 U.S. dollar equals 1.60 Canadian dollars in the spot market. 6-month Canadian securities have an annualized return of 6% (and thus a 6-month periodic return of 3%). 6-month U.S. securities have an annualized return of 6.5% and a periodic return of 3.25%. If interest rate parity holds, what is the U.S. dollar-Canadian dollar exchange rate in the 180-day forward market? a. 1 U.S. dollar = 0.6235 Canadian dollars b. 1 U.S. dollar = 0.6265 Canadian dollars c. 1 U.S. dollar = 1.0000 Canadian dollars d. 1 U.S. dollar = 1.5961 Canadian dollars e. 1 U.S. dollar = 1.6039 Canadian dollars ANSWER: d From the interest rate parity formula it follows that RATIONALE:

ft

= (eo)(1 + rh)/(1 + rf) = (0.6250 U.S. dollars/Canadian dollar)(1.0325)/(1.03) = 0.6265 U.S. dollars/Canadian dollar, or 1.5961 Canadian dollars per U.S. dollar.

Another way to think of this is $1 invested today in the United States yields $1.0325 six months from now. Alternatively, investors could put their money in Canadian securities. In this case, the investor would exchange $1 today for 1.6 Canadian dollars. This money could be invested in Canada and after 6 months this investment would be worth 1.6480 Canadian dollars[(1.6)(1.03)]. At a forward exchange rate of 1 U.S. dollar equals 1.5961 Canadian dollars, 1.6480 Canadian dollars would be worth $1.0325 in the U.S. Since the 2 investments produce the same return, interest rate parity holds.

In its negotiations with its investment bankers, Patton Electronics has reached an agreement whereby the investment bankers receive a smaller fee now (6% of gross proceeds versus their normal 10%) but also receive a 1-year option to purchase an additional 200,000 shares at $5.00 per share. Patton will go public by selling $5,000,000 of new common stock. The investment bankers expect to exercise the option and purchase the 200,000 shares in exactly one year, when the stock price is forecasted to be $6.50 per share. However, there is a chance that the stock price will actually be $12.00 per share one year from now. If the $12 price occurs, what would the present value of the entire underwriting compensation be? Assume that the investment banker's required return on such arrangements is 15%, and ignore taxes. a. $1,235,925 b. $1,300,973 c. $1,369,446 d. $1,441,522 e. $1,517,391 ANSWER: e RATIONALE: Gross funds: $5,000,000 Current price: $5.00

The term "equity carve-out" refers to the situation where a firm's managers give themselves the right to purchase new stock at a price far below the going market price. Since this dilutes the value of the public stockholders, it "carves out" some of their value. a. True b. False ANSWER: False False. An equity carve-out occurs when there is only a partial public offering. In other words, RATIONALE: the public is sold equity in a wholly owned subsidiary but the parent retains full control of the subsidiary by retaining the majority of the subsidiary's common stock.

Which of the following statements concerning common stock and the investment banking process is NOT CORRECT? a. If a firm sells 1,000,000 new shares of Class B stock, the transaction occurs in the primary market. b. Listing a large firm's stock is often considered to be beneficial to stockholders because the increases in liquidity and reputation probably outweigh the additional costs to the firm. c. Stockholders have the right to elect the firm's directors, who in turn select the officers who manage the business. If stockholders are dissatisfied with management's performance, an outside group may ask the stockholders to vote for it in an effort to take control of the business. This action is called a tender offer. d. The announcement of a large issue of new stock could cause the stock price to fall.

To finance its ongoing construction project, Bowen-Roth Inc. will need $5,000,000 of new capital during each of the next 3 years. The firm has a choice of issuing new debt or equity each year as the funds are needed, or issue only debt now and equity later. Its target capital structure is 40% debt and 60% equity, and it wants to be at that structure in 3 years, when the project has been completed. Debt flotation costs for a single debt issue would be 1.6% of the gross debt proceeds. Yearly flotation costs for 3 separate issues of debt would be 3.0% of the gross amount. Ignoring time value effects, how much would the firm save by raising all of the debt now, in a single issue, rather than in 3 separate issues? a. $79,425 b. $83,606 c. $88,006 d. $92,406 e. $97,027 ANSWER: c RATIONALE: Flotation%, 3 issues: 3.0% Flotation %, 1 issue: 1.6% Total funds needed = 3 × $5,000,000 = $15,000,000 Total debt needed = 40% × $15,000,000 = $6,000,000 Debt/year if use 3 separate issues = Total debt/3 = $2,000,000 Grossed-up debt if use a single issue = Net debt needed/(1 − F) = $6,000,000/(1 − 0.016) = $6,097,561 Cengage Learning Testing, Powered by Cognero

Suppose a company issued 30-year bonds 4 years ago, when the yield curve was inverted. Since then long-term rates (10 years or longer) have remained constant, but the yield curve has resumed its normal upward slope. Under such conditions, a bond refunding would almost certainly be profitable. a. True b. False ANSWER: False RATIONALE: False. Since long-term rates have not fallen, the yield on new bonds would be the same as the coupon rate on the old bonds, hence there would be no interest savings to offset the call premium and the new flotation costs.

Which of the following statements is most CORRECT? a. The key benefits associated with refunding debt are the reduction in the firm's debt ratio and the creation of more reserve borrowing capacity. b. The mechanics of finding the NPV of a refunding decision are fairly straightforward. However, the decision of when to refund is not always clear because it requires a forecast of future interest rates. c. If a firm with a positive NPV refunding project delays refunding and interest rates rise, the firm can still obtain the entire NPV by locking in a low coupon rate when the rates are low, even though it actually refunds the debt after rates have risen. d. Suppose a firm is considering refunding and interest rates rise during time when the analysis is being done.

Ignore tax considerations⎯assume that the firm's tax rate is zero. The company's decision of whether to call the bonds depends critically on the current interest rate on newly issued bonds. What is the breakeven interest rate, the rate below which it would be profitable to call in the bonds? a. 9.57% b. 10.07% c. 10.60% d. 11.16% e. 11.72% ANSWER: d RATIONALE: Call premium: $50 Old rate: 12.0%

Flotation cost per bond: Amount of issue: Par value of bonds:

$10 $5,000,000 $1,000

Years to maturity: Number of bonds:

Cost of refunding:

Call premium per bond × number of bonds = Flotation cost = $10 × Number of bonds issued = Total investment outlay: Interest on old bond per year = Old rate × Amount =

$250,000 $ 50,000 $300,000 $600,000

If the company does not call the bonds, it will have to pay $600,000 per year for 15 years, plus $5,000,000 at Year 15. If it goes ahead and calls the bonds, it will have to pay $300,000 + $5,000,000 = $5,300,000 today. We can find the discount rate that equates these cash flows. Here is the time line:

If you enter these cash flows in the cash flow register of a calculator and then press the IRR key, you will get the breakeven rate, which is 11.1583%, rounded to 11.16%. You can do the same thing with Excel. Note that the annual savings at this lower rate would be (0.12 − 0.111583) × $5,000,000 = $42,084.78. The PV of that amount, discounted back for 15 years at 11.16%, is $300,000.

NWW is now considering refunding these bonds. It has been amortizing $3 million of flotation costs on these bonds over their 30-year life. The company could sell a new issue of 25-year bonds at an annual interest rate of 11.67% in today's market. A call premium of 14% would be required to retire the old bonds, and flotation costs on the new issue would amount to $3 million. NWW's marginal tax rate is 40%. The new bonds would be issued when the old bonds are called. 24. Refer to the data for NorthWest Water (NWW).

To finance some manufacturing tools it needs for the next 3 years, Waldrop Corporation is considering a leasing arrangement. The tools will be obsolete and worthless after 3 years. The firm will depreciate the cost of the tools on a straight-line basis over their 3-year life. It can borrow $4,800,000, the purchase price, at 10% and buy the tools, or it can make 3 equal end-of-year lease payments of $2,100,000 each and lease them. The loan obtained from the bank is a 3-year simple interest loan, with interest paid at the end of the year. The firm's tax rate is 40%. Annual maintenance costs associated with ownership are estimated at $240,000, but this cost would be borne by the lessor if it leases. What is the net advantage to leasing (NAL), in thousands?

Delamont Transport Company (DTC) is evaluating the merits of leasing versus purchasing a truck with a 4-year life that costs $40,000 and falls into the MACRS 3-year class. If the firm borrows and buys the truck, the loan rate would be 10%, and the loan would be amortized over the truck's 4-year life, so the interest expense for taxes would decline over time. The loan payments would be made at the end of each year. The truck will be used for 4 years, at the end of which time it will be sold at an estimated residual value of $10,000. If DTC buys the truck, it would purchase a maintenance contract that costs $1,000 per year, payable at the end of each year. The lease terms, which include maintenance, call for a $10,000 lease payment (4 payments total) at the beginning of each year. DTC's tax rate is 40%. What is the net advantage to leasing?

Carmichael Cleaners needs a new steam finishing machine that costs $100,000. The company is evaluating whether it should lease or purchase the machine. The equipment falls into the MACRS 3-year class, and it would be used for 3 years and then sold, because the firm plans to move to a new facility at that time. The estimated value of the equipment after 3 years is $30,000. A maintenance contract on the equipment would cost $3,000 per year, payable at the beginning of each year. Alternatively, the firm could lease the equipment for 3 years for a lease payment of $29,000 per year, payable at the beginning of each year. The lease would include maintenance. The firm is in the 20% tax bracket, and it could obtain a 3year simple interest loan, interest payable at the end of the year, to purchase the equipment at a before-tax cost of 10%. If there is a positive Net Advantage to Leasing the firm will lease the equipment. Otherwise, it will buy it. What is the NAL?

Ch 20 Hybrid Financing: Preferred Stock, Warrants, and Convertibles 29. Which of the following statements concerning warrants is correct? a. Warrants are long-term put options that have value because holders can sell the firm's common stock at the exercise price regardless of how low the market price drops. b. Warrants are long-term call options that have value because holders can buy the firm's common stock at the exercise price regardless of how high the stock's price has risen. c. A firm's investors would generally prefer to see it issue bonds with warrants than straight bonds because the warrants dilute the value of new shareholders, and that value is transferred to existing shareholders. d. A drawback to using warrants is that if the firm is very successful, investors will be less likely to exercise the warrants, and this will deprive the firm of receiving any new capital. e. Bonds with warrants and convertible bonds both have option features that their holders can exercise if the underlying stock's price increases. However, if the option is exercised, the issuing company's debt declines if warrants were used but remains the same if it used convertibles.

Which of the following statements is most CORRECT? a. One important difference between warrants and convertibles is that convertibles bring in additional funds when they are converted, but exercising warrants does not bring in any additional funds. b. The coupon rate on convertible debt is normally set below the coupon rate that would be set on otherwise similar straight debt even though investing in convertibles is more risky than investing in straight debt. c. The value of a warrant to buy a safe, stable stock should exceed the value of a warrant to buy a risky, volatile stock, other things held constant. d. Warrants can sometimes be detached and traded separately from the debt with which they were issued, but this is unusual. e. Warrants have an option feature but convertibles do not. ANSWER: b Answer b is correct; convertibles do normally have a relatively low coupon because the RATIONALE: opportunity for capital gains provides part of their expected total return. The other responses Cengage Learning Testing, Powered by Cognero

Using the compressed adjusted present value model, what will Glassmaker's value of equity be if it successfully implements its planned changes in operations and capital structure? (Round your answer to the closest thousand dollars.) a. $16,019,000 b. $17,111,000 c. $18,916,000 d. $22,111,000 e. $22,916,000 ANSWER: b RATIONALE: Because the cash flows are all discounted at the same rate, we don't need to separately calculate the unlevered value of operations and the value of the tax shield. We can simply enter the sum of the tax shields and free cash flows and their horizon values for each year into the financial calculator: Time line: (In millions) Financial calculator solution: Inputs: CF0 = 0; CF1 = 4,000,000; Nj = 3; CF2 = 19,000,000; I/YR = 11.29. Output: PVInflows = $22,111,708 = Vops. Value of equity = Vops − Debt = $22.111 − $5 = $17.111 million. Alternately, some students will calculate separately the unlevered value of operations and the value of the tax shield: Inputs: CF0 = 0; CF1 = 3,000,000; Nj = 3; CF2 = 13,000,000; I/YR = 11.29. Output: PVInflows = $15,768,917 = Value of unlevered operations. Inputs: CF0 = 0; CF1 = 1,000,000; Nj = 3; CF2 = 6,000,000; I/YR = 11.29. Output: PVInflows = $6,342,792 = Value of tax shield. Adding these together gives the value of operations above, and subtracting the debt gives the value of equity above.

Which of the following statements is most CORRECT? a. The smaller the synergistic benefits of a particular merger, the greater the scope for striking a bargain in negotiations, and the higher the probability that the merger will be completed. b. Since mergers are frequently financed by debt rather than equity, a lower cost of debt or a greater debt capacity are rarely relevant considerations when considering a merger. c. Managers who purchase other firms often assert that the new combined firm will enjoy benefits from diversification, including more stable earnings. However, since shareholders are free to diversify their own holdings, and at what's probably a lower cost, diversification benefits is generally not a valid motive for a publicly held firm. d. Operating economies are never a motive for mergers. e. Tax considerations often play a part in mergers. If one firm has excess cash, purchasing another firm exposes the purchasing firm to additional taxes. Thus, firms with excess cash rarely undertake mergers.

A parent holding company sells shares in its subsidiary such that the parent now owns only 65% of the subsidiary and, thus, the tax returns of the parent and its subsidiary can't be consolidated. The parent receives annual dividends from the subsidiary of $2,500,000. If the parent's marginal tax rate is 34% and if the exclusion on intercompany dividends is 70%, what is the effective tax rate on the intercompany dividends, and how much net dividends are received? a. 10.2%; $2,245,000 b. 10.2%; $2,135,000 c. 23.8%; $1,905,000 d. 10.2%; $1,750,000 e. 34.0%; $1,650,000 ANSWER: a RATIONALE: Effective tax rate = (1 − Exclusion)(Tax rate)

= (1 − 0.70)(0.34) = 10.2%. Net dividends

= Gross dividends − Tax = $2,500,000 − $2,500,000(1 − 0.70)(0.34) = $2,500,000 − $255,000 = $2,245,000.

Which of the following statements is most CORRECT? a. Financial theory says that the choice of how to pay for a merger is really irrelevant because, although it may affect the firm's capital structure, it will not affect its overall required rate of return. b. The basic rationale for any financial merger is synergy and, thus, the estimation of pro forma cash flows is the single most important part of the analysis. c. In most mergers, the benefits of synergy and the premium the acquirer pays over the market price are summed and then divided equally between the shareholders of the acquiring and target firms. d. The primary rationale for most operating mergers is synergy. e. The acquiring firm's required rate of return in most horizontal mergers will not be affected, because the 2 firms will have similar betas.

Holland Auto Parts is considering a merger with Workman Car Parts. Workman's market-determined beta is 0.9, and the firm currently is financed with 20% debt, at an interest rate of 8%, and its tax rate is 25%. If Holland acquires Workman, it will increase the debt to 60%, at an interest rate of 9%, and the tax rate will increase to 35%. The risk-free rate is 6% and the market risk premium is 4%. What will Workman's required rate of return on equity be after it is acquired? a. 7.4% b. 8.9% c. 9.3% d. 9.6% e. 9.7% ANSWER: e RATIONALE: Calculate the current required return to Workman's equity: rK = rRF + b(RPM) = 6% + (0.9)4% = 9.6%. Calculate Workman's unlevered cost of equity: rsU = wdrd + wsrs = 0.20(8%) + 0.80(9.6%) = 9.28%. Calculate Workman's levered cost of equity at the new capital structure with the new cost of debt: rsL = rsU + (rsU − rd)(D/S) = 9.28% + (9.28% − 9%)/(0.6/0.4) = 9.7%.

Raymond Supply, a national hardware chain, is considering purchasing a smaller chain, Strauss & Glazer Parts (SGP). Raymond's analysts project that the merger will result in the following incremental free cash flows, tax shields, and horizon values: Year 1 2 3 4 Free cash flow $1 $3 $3 $7 Unlevered horizon value 75 Tax shield 1 1 2 3 Horizon value of tax shield 32 Assume that all cash flows occur at the end of the year. SGP is currently financed with 30% debt at a rate of 10%. The acquisition would be made immediately, and if it is undertaken, SGP would retain its current $15 million of debt and issue enough new debt to continue at the 30% target level. The interest rate would remain the same. SGP's pre-merger beta is 2.0, and its post-merger tax rate would be 34%. The risk-free rate is 8% and the market risk premium is 4%. Using the compressed adjusted present value approach, what is the value of SGP to Raymond? a. $53.40 million b. $61.96 million c. $64.64 million d. $76.96 million e. $79.64 million ANSWER: b RATIONALE: rsL = rRF + b(RPM) = 8% + 2.0(4%) = 16%. rsU = wdrd + wsrs = 0.30(10%) + 0.70(16%) = 14.2%. Since all of the cash flows are to be discounted at the same rate, we don't need to separately calculate the values of the tax shield and unlevered value of operations. We can simply add the tax shields and free cash flows together each year to input in the financial calculator: Time line: (In millions) Financial calculator solution: (In millions) Inputs: CF0 = 0; CF1 = 2; CF2 = 4; CF3 = 5; CF4 = 117; I/YR = 14.2. Output: NPV = $76.96 million = Value of operations. Value of equity = Value of operations − Value of debt = $76.96 − 15 = $61.96 million. Some students will calculate separately the value of the tax shield and the unlevered value of operations and add them together. In that case, the separate calculations are: Unlevered value of operations: Inputs: CF0 = 0; CF1 = 1; CF2 = 3; CF3 = 3; CF4 = 75 + 7 = 82; I/YR = 14.2. Output: NPV = $53.40 million = Unlevered value of operations. Value of tax shields: Inputs: CF0 = 0; CF1 = 1; CF2 = 1; CF3 = 2; CF4 = 3 + 32 = 35; I/YR = 14.2. Output: NPV = $23.56 million = Value of tax shields. Value of operations = Value of tax shields + Unlevered value of operations = $53.40 + $23.56 = $76.96 million.

Ch 23 Enterprise Risk Management c. Enter into a short hedge where the bank agrees to sell interest rate futures. d. Sell some of the bank's floating-rate loans and use the proceeds to make fixed-rate loans. e. Buying inverse floaters. ANSWER: c Given its interest rate exposure, the bank needs a strategy which is profitable whenever RATIONALE: interest rates rise. If designed correctly, the profits from this strategy can partially, or in some cases, completely offset the losses the bank realizes from its basic operations whenever rates rise. Of the 5 strategies, only the short hedge is profitable when rates rise⎯all the other strategies would make sense if the bank were looking for extra profits when rates dropped.

Ch 25 Portfolio Theory and Asset Pricing Models ANSWER:

ABCDE = feasible set. BCDE = efficient set of risky assets. rRFD = efficient set including riskless asset. The table below shows the returns and standard deviations for various portfolios of Securities A and B.

a. Percent of Portfolio in Security A (x) 100 75 50 25 0

Percent of Portfolio Expected Portfolio Standard Deviation of Portfolio in Security B Return Return (1 − x) 0 25 50 75 100

σp (%) 10.00 8.39 9.01 11.52 15.00

rr (%) 10.0 11.0 12.0 13.0 14.0

Calculations: rp = xrA + (1 − x)rB. . rA = 10%; σA = 10%; rB = 14%; σB = 15%; rAB = 0%. For x = 0.5: rp = 0.5(10%) + 0.5(14%) = 0.05 + 0.07 = 0.12 = 12%.

rp and σp for other combinations of Securities A and B in the portfolio were similarly calculated. b. Cengage Learning Testing, Powered by Cognero

If the correlation coefficient were positive, then the CML would have a less steep slope. The riskiness of the portfolio would increase. If the correlation Page 4

Ch 25 Portfolio Theory and Asset Pricing Models coefficient were negative, then the CML would be steeper.

c.

This would not represent a stable equilibrium, because no one would want to hold the riskless asset. In a stable equilibrium, all securities must be priced so that they will be held in portfolios. Therefore, the price of the riskless asset will fall, and its rate of return, rRF, will rise. This will produce a new tangency point and cause a new CML to be created. However, at the new tangency point we have a new market portfolio. This will probably lead to a repricing of stocks, hence to a change in the efficient set. The final results will include (1) a higher rRF, (2) a CML that is less steep than the present one, (3) some change in the efficient set, (4) a rebalancing of portfolios, with some investors (those who are most risk averse) holding portfolios that contain some of the riskless asset and some of the market portfolio, and (5) an equilibrium situation in which all securities were held in portfolios and there was no general desire to change portfolio compositions.
