Answer:
B. Expected Return and Beta
Explanation:
The security market line displays the expected return of an individual asset as a function of it systematic risk (the diversifiable risk) as identified by beta if an asset is correctly priced it lies on the SML and if it lies above the SML it is undervalued because they yield a higher return for a given amount of risk and if it lies below the SML it is overvalued because for a given amount of risk it yield a lower return.

a. How much money will they have accumulated 30 years from now?
b. If the goal is to retire with $800,000 savings, how much extra do they need to save every year?
Answers
Answer:
a. $408,334.39
b. $3,457.40
Explanation:
r = rate per period = 8% = 0.08
P = Initial Value of Gift = $10,000
t = time = 30 - 5 = 25, As received after 5 years.
A = $10,000 x 6.8485
A = $68,484.75
P = Periodic Payment = $3,000
a.
n = number of periods = 30
FV of annuity = $3,000 x 113.2832
FV of annuity = $339,849.63
Accumulated value of money can be calculated as follows;
$68,484.75 + $339,849.63
$408,334.39
b.
If they wish to retire with $800,000 savings, they need to save additional amount of money every year to provide additional amount of money, as follows;
$800,000 - $68,484.75
$731,515.24
The extra annual savings can be calculated as follows;
$731,515.24 = P x 113.28
Divide the above equation by 113.28 we get;
P = $6,457.40
They are already paying $3,000, So the extra saving they need make every year is calculated as follows;
$6,457.40 - $3,000
$3,457.40
II The corporation's capitalization will decrease
III The market value of the common stock will increase
IV The market value of the common stock will decrease
Answers
Answer:
II and III
Explanation:
The best answer is ii and iii. If a corporation repurchases its debt, then its capitalization will decrease. Corporations repurchase debt to refinance at smaller interest rates so as to To increase the market value of the corporation's common stock. If corporation has less debt, the common stock would have more value and to reduce the corporation's earnings fluctuation's due to cyclical conditions. Corporate sales fall because of cyclical conditions, but fixed interest charges do not. This causes earnings for common shareholders to reduce in period of falling sales. To reduce this possibility, a corporation can repurchase its debt.
WACC Estimation
The table below gives the balance sheet for Travellers Inn Inc. (TII), a company that was formed by merging a number of regional motel chains.
Travellers Inn: December 31, 2012 (Millions of Dollars)
Cash $10 Accounts payable $10
Accounts receivable 20 Accruals 10
Inventories 20 Short-term debt 5
Current assets $50 Current liabilities $25
Net fixed assets 50 Long-term debt 30
Preferred stock 5
Common equity
Common stock $10
Retained earnings 30
Total common equity $40
Total assets $100 Total liabilities and equity $100
The following facts also apply to TII:
1. Short-term debt consists of bank loans that currently cost 8%, with interest payable quarterly. These loans are used to finance receivables and inventories on a seasonal basis, bank loans are zero in the off-season.
2. The long-term debt consists of 30-year, semiannual payment mortgage bonds with a coupon rate of 8%. Currently, these bonds provide a yield to investors of rd= 12%. If new bonds were sold, they would have a 12% yield to maturity.
3. TII's perpetual preferred stock has a $100 par value, pays a quarterly dividend of $2.50, and has a yield to investors of 11%. New perpetual preferred would have to provide the same yield to investors, and the company would incur a 3% flotation cost to sell it.
4. The company has 4 million shares of common stock outstanding. P0 = $20, but the stock has recently traded in price the range from $17 to $23. D0 = $1 and EPS0 = $2. ROE based on average equity was 26% in 2008, but management expects to increase this return on equity to 31%; however, security analysts and investors generally are not aware of management's optimism in this regard.
5. Betas, as reported by security analysts, range from 1.3 to 1.7; the T-bond rate is 10%; and RPM is estimated by various brokerage houses to be in the range from 4.5% to 5.5%. Some brokerage house analysts reports forecast dividend growth rates in the range of 10% to 15% over the foreseeable future.
6. TII's financial vice president recently polled some pension fund investment managers who hold TII's securities regarding what minimum rate of return on TII's common would make them willing to buy the common rather than TII bonds, given that the bonds yielded 12%. The responses suggested a risk premium over TII bonds of 4 to 6 percentage points.
7. TII is in the 35% federal-plus-state tax bracket.
8. TII's principal investment banker predicts a decline in interest rates, with rd falling to 10% and the T-bond rate to 6%, although the bank acknowledges that an increase in the expected inflation rate could lead to an increase rather than a decrease in interest rates.
Assume that you were recently hired by TII as a financial analyst and that your boss, the treasurer, has asked you to estimate the company's WACC under the assumption that no new equity will be issued. Your cost of capital should be appropriate for use in evaluating projects that are in the same risk class as the assets TII now operates. Do not round intermediate steps. Round your answer to two decimal places.

Answer:
Explanation:
(1) Cost of short-term debt after tax : 8% ( 1 – tax rate)
= 8% ( 1 – 35%)
= 8% (65%)
= 5.2%
Market value of Short term debt ( in million $) = 5
(2) Cost of long-term debt after tax: 8% ( 1 – tax rate)
= 8% ( 1 – 35%)
= 8% (65%)
= 5.2%
Market value of long term debt ( in $ million) = ( par value of Debt * coupon rate) / Yield
= (30 * 8%) / 12%
= 2.4 / 12%
= 20
(3) Market price of preferred stock = annual Dividend / Yield to investor
= ($2.50*4) / 0.11
= $ 10 / 0.11
= $ 90.909
Cost of new preferred stock = Annual dividend / Current market price – floatation cost
= ($2.50*4) / $ 90.909 – ( 3% * $ 90.909)
= $ 10 / $ 90.909 – $ 2.727
= $ 10 / $ 88.182
= 0.1134
= 11.34%
Market value of Preferred stock ($ millions) = Par value of Preferred * Annual Dividend rate / Yield
= 5 * ( $ 10 / $ 100) / 0.11
= 5 * 0.1 / 0.11
= 0.5 / 0.11
= 4.545454
(4) Market value of Common stock ($ millions) = No of common stock outstanding * Current market price
= 4 * 20
= 80
Retention ratio = (1 – dividend pay-out ratio)
= (1 – $1 / $ 2)
= (1 – 0.5)
= 0.5
= 50%
Growth rate = return on equity * retention ratio
= 26% * 0.5
= 13%
Cost of common stock (Alternative 1) = (Dividend for next year / Current market price) + growth rate
= [1 ( 1+ 0.13) / 20 ] + 13%
= [1 ( 1.13) / 20 ] + 13%
= [1.13 / 20 ] + 13%
= 5.65% + 13%
= 18.65%
Cost of common stock (alternative 2) = Risk free rate + Beta (Market risk premium)
= 10% + [(1.3 + 1.7)/2] [(4.5% + 5.5%) /2]
= 10% + [(1.3 + 1.7)/2] [(4.5% + 5.5%) /2]
= 10% + (1.5)( 5%)
=10% + 7.5%
= 17.5%
Cost of Common stock (Alternative 3) = Yield on TII Bond + Average Risk premium
= 12% + (4% + 6%) / 2
= 12% + (10%) / 2
= 12% + 5%
= 17%
Cost of common stock = Highest of Alternative 1, Alternative 2 & Alternative 3
= Highest of (18.65%, 17.5% and 17%)
= 18.65%

Answer:
Journal entry to record depletion expense
Depreciation expense $280,000 (debit)
Accumulated depreciation $280,000 (credit)
Explanation:
The coal mine is an economic resource controlled (ownership of risks and benefits) by Last year, Mountain Top, Inc as a result of past event (purchase transaction) from which economic benefits are expected to flow into the business (cash from sale of minerals).Therefore the coal mine is an asset!
The asset is being depleted as it is being used. This is called depreciation.
Depreciation expense in this case is calculated as :
Depreciable Account × Current harvest as a percentage of total estimated tons available
(900000-100000)× 70000/200000 = $280,000
Answer:
(Debit) Depletion expense 280,000
(Credit) Accumulated depletion 280,000
Explanation:
The coal mine is an economic resource controlled (ownership of risks and benefits) by Mountain Top, Inc as a result of past event (purchase transaction) from which economic benefits are expected to flow into the business (cash from sale of minerals).We need to record the DEPLETION of what was mined this year.
The asset is being depleted as it is being used. This is called DEPLETION.
(Cost of Asset - Salvage Value) × Current Units / Estimated Units = Depletion Amount
(900000-100000)× 70000/200000 = $280,000
