Chapter 1 Solutions

Answers to Review Questions 1. How is finance related to the disciplines of accounting and economics?

Financial management is essentially a combination of accounting and economics. First, financial managers use accounting information—balance sheets, income statements, and so on—to analyze, plan, and allocate financial resources for business firms. Second, financial managers use economic principles to guide them in making financial decisions that are in the best interest of the firm. In other words, finance is an applied area of economics that relies on accounting for input.

2. List and describe the three career opportunities in the field of finance.

Finance has three main career paths: financial management, financial markets and institutions, and investments. Financial management involves managing the finances of a business. Financial managers—people who manage a business firm's finances—perform a number of tasks. They analyze and forecast a firm's finances; assess risk, evaluate investment opportunities, decide when and where to find money sources and how much money to raise, and decide how much money to return to the firm's investors. Bankers, stockbrokers, and others who work in financial markets and institutions focus on the flow of money through financial institutions and the markets in which financial assets are exchanged. They track the impact of interest rates on the flow of that money. People who work in the field of investments locate, select, and manage income-producing assets. For instance, security analysts and mutual fund managers both operate in the investment field.

3. Describe the duties of the financial manager in a business firm.

Financial managers measure the firm's performance, determine what the financial consequences will be if the firm maintains its present course or changes it, and recommend how the firm should use its assets. Financial managers also locate external financing sources and recommend the most beneficial mix of financing sources, and they determine the financial expectations of the firm's owners. All financial managers must be able to communicate, analyze, and make decisions based on information from many sources. To do this, they need to be able to analyze financial statements, forecast and plan, and determine the effect of size, risk, and timing of cash flows.

4. What is the basic goal of a business?

The primary financial goal of the business firm is to maximize the wealth of the firm's owners. Wealth, in turn, refers to value. If a group of people owns a business firm, the contribution that firm makes to that group's wealth is determined by the market value of that firm.

6

5. List and explain the three financial factors that influence the value of a business.

The three factors that affect the value of a firm's stock price are cash flow, timing, and risk. The Importance of Cash Flow: In business, cash is what pays the bills. It is also what the firm receives in exchange for its products and services. Cash is therefore of ultimate importance, and the expectation that the firm will generate cash in the future is one of the factors that gives the firm its value. The Effect of Timing on Cash Flows: Owners and potential investors look at when firms can expect to receive cash and when they can expect to pay out cash. All other factors being equal, the sooner companies expect to receive cash and the later they expect to pay out cash, the more valuable the firm and the higher its stock price will be. The Influence of Risk: Risk affects value because the less certain owners and investors are about a firm's expected future cash flows, the lower they will value the company. The more certain owners and investors are about a firm's expected future cash flows, the higher they will value the company. In short, companies whose expected future cash flows are doubtful will have lower values than companies whose expected future cash flows are virtually certain.

6. Explain why accounting profits and cash flows are not the same thing.

Stock value depends on future cash flows, their timing, and their riskiness. Profit calculations do not consider these three factors. Profit, as defined in accounting, is simply the difference between sales revenue and expenses. It is true that more profits are generally better than less profits, but when the pursuit of short-term profits adversely affects the size of future cash flows, their timing, or their riskiness, then these profit maximization efforts are detrimental to the firm.

7. What is an agent? What are the responsibilities of an agent?

An agent is a person who has the implied or actual authority to act on behalf of another. The owners whom the agents represent are the principals. Agents have a legal and ethical responsibility to make decisions that further the interests of the principals.

8. Describe how society's interests can influence financial managers.

Sometimes the interests of a business firm's owners are not the same as the interests of society. For instance, the cost of properly disposing of toxic waste can be so high that companies may be tempted to simply dump their waste in nearby rivers. In so doing, the companies can keep costs low and profits high, and drive their stock prices higher (if they are not caught). However, many people suffer from the polluted environment. This is why we have environmental and other similar laws: So that society's best interests take precedence over the interests of individual company owners. When businesses take a long-term view, the interests of the owners and society often (but not always) coincide. When companies encourage recycling, sponsor programs for disadvantaged young people,

7

run media campaigns promoting the responsible use of alcohol, and contribute money to worthwhile civic causes, the goodwill generated as a result of these activities causes long-term increases in the firm's sales and cash flows, which translate into additional wealth for the firm's owners.

9. Briefly define the terms proprietorship, partnership, and corporation.

A proprietorship is a business owned by one person. Two or more people who join together to form a business make up a partnership. This can be done on an informal basis without a written partnership agreement, or a contract can spell out the rights and responsibilities of each partner. A limited liability company is a hybrid between a partnership and a corporation. Profits and losses pass through to the members. Members generally enjoy limited liability. Corporations are legal entities separate from their owners. To form a corporation, the owners specify the governing rules for the running of the business in a contract known as the articles of incorporation. They submit the articles to the government of the state in which the corporation is formed, and the state issues a charter that creates the separate legal entity.

10. Compare and contrast the potential liability of owners of proprietorships, partnerships (general

partners), and corporations.

The sole proprietor has unlimited liability for matters relating to the business. This means that the sole proprietor is responsible for all the obligations of the business, even if those obligations exceed the amount the proprietor has invested in the business. Each partner in a partnership is usually liable for the activities of the partnership as a whole. Even if there are a hundred partners, each one is technically responsible for all the debts of the partnership. If ninety-nine partners declare personal bankruptcy, the hundredth partner still is responsible for all the partnership's debts. A corporation is a legal entity that is liable for its own activities. Stockholders, the corporation's owners, have limited liability for the corporation's activities. They cannot lose more than the amount they paid to buy the corporation’s stock.

Answers to End-of-Chapter Problems 1. An accountant prepares financial statements while a financial analyst interprets them. 2. A financial manager’s role in a publicly traded company is to make financial decisions so as to

best serve the principal stockholders.

3. a. The value of the firm would go down due to the increase in the amount of time it takes to

receive the cash inflows. b. The value of the firm would go up due to the increase in expected cash inflows. c. If expected future cash flows do not change the value of the firm would go down due to the

increased riskiness of the firm. 4. This practice obviously takes advantage of people who are in a difficult financial situation. This

transaction is voluntary, however, and high risk loans have high interest rates.

5. LLCs have a small number of members like partnerships and each of these members is likely to have an active voice in the company like a partnership. The LLC is taxed like a partnership. Unlike a partnership, and more like a corporation, the owners generally enjoy limited liability.

Chapter 2 Solutions

Answers to Review Questions 1. What are financial markets? Why do they exist?

Financial markets are where financial securities are bought and sold. They exist primarily to bring deficit economic units (those needing money) and surplus economic units (those having extra money) together.

2. What is a security?

Securities are claims on financial assets. They can be described as “claim checks” that give their owners the right to receive funds in the future. Securities are traded in both the money and capital markets. Money market securities include Treasury bills, negotiable certificates of deposit,

commercial paper, and banker’s acceptances. Capital market securities include bonds and stock. 3. What are the characteristics of an efficient market?

The term market efficiency refers to the ease, speed, and cost of trading securities. In an efficient market, securities can be traded easily, quickly, and at low cost. Markets lacking these qualities are considered to be inefficient.

4. How are financial trades made on an organized exchange?

Each exchange-listed security is traded at a specified location on the trading floor called the post. The trading is supervised by specialists who act either as brokers (bringing together buyers and sellers) or as dealers (buying or selling the stock themselves). Prominent international securities exchanges include the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and major exchanges in Tokyo, London, Amsterdam, Frankfurt, Paris, Hong Kong, and Mexico.

5. How are financial trades made in an over-the-counter market? Discuss the role of a dealer in the OTC

market.

In contrast to the organized exchanges, which have physical locations, the over-the-counter market

has no fixed location, or more correctly, it is everywhere. The over-the-counter market, or OTC, is a network of dealers around the world who maintain inventories of securities for sale. If you wanted to buy a security that is traded OTC, you would call your broker, who would then shop among competing dealers who have the security in their inventory. After locating the dealer with the best price, your broker would buy the security on your behalf.

10

The role of dealers: Dealers make their living buying securities and reselling them to others. They operate just like car dealers who buy cars from manufacturers for resale to others. Dealers make money by buying securities for one price (called the bid price) and selling them for a higher price, (called the ask price). The difference, or spread, between the bid price and the ask price represents

the dealer’s fee. 6. What is the role of a broker in security transactions? How are brokers compensated?

Brokers handle orders to buy or sell securities. Brokers are agents who work on behalf of an investor. When investors call with an order, brokers work on their behalf to find someone to take the other side of the proposed trade. If investors want to buy, brokers find sellers. If investors want to sell, brokers

find buyers. Brokers are compensated for their services when the person whom they represent, the

investor, pays them a commission on the sale or purchase of securities. 7. What is a Treasury bill? How risky is it?

Treasury bills are short-term debt instruments issued by the U.S. Treasury that are sold at a discount and pay face value at maturity. They are very nearly risk-free as they are backed by the U.S. Government which could, if need by, print money to pay their holders at maturity.

8. Would there be positive interest rates on bonds in a world with absolutely no risk (no default risk,

maturity risk, and so on)? Why would a lender demand, and a borrower be willing to pay, a positive interest rate in such a no-risk world?

Yes, there would be a positive rate of interest in a risk-free world. This is because regardless of risk, lenders of money must postpone spending during the time the money is loaned. Lenders, then, lose the opportunity to invest their money for that period of time. To compensate for the cost of losing investment opportunities while they postpone their spending, lenders demand, and borrowers pay, a

basic rate of return, the real rate of interest.

Answers to End of Chapter Problems 2-1. a. Surplus economic units have income that exceeds their expenditures. Wealthy families in the

household sector and most states (which have balanced budget requirements) are surplus economic units.

b. Deficit economic units have expenditures that exceed their incomes. Home buyers and college

students are likely to be deficit economic units. 2.2. a. false b. false c. false d. false

b. The money market is dominated by large institutional traders and there is much competition. The New York Stock Exchange tends to have larger more actively traded stocks. The over-the-counter market tends to have smaller less actively traded securities. The real estate market has very high transaction costs and trades take months.

2.4. a. A money market security is short term and actively traded. b. Treasury bills and commercial paper are both traded in the money market. 2-5. $66.25/$1,000 = 6 5/8 % coupon rate 2-6. The yield on a Bonds-R-Us bond:

Real rate of interest...................... 2% Inflation premium........................ 3% Default risk premium................... 1% Illiquidity risk premium............... 1% Maturity risk premium................. 1%

Total yield on Bonds-R-Us Bond: 8%

(reference figure 2-2)

2-7. Treasury Yield Curve:

Given: Treasury Security Yields: Maturity in Years (for Chart)

Three-month T-bills 4.50% 0.25

Six-month T-bills 4.75% 0.5

One-year T-notes 5.00% 1

Two-year T-notes 5.25% 2

Three-year T-bonds 5.50% 3

Five-year T-bonds 5.75% 5

Ten-year T-bonds 6.00% 10

Thirty-year T-bonds 6.50% 30

Chart: (see next page)

12

Implications:

a. For borrowers: Borrowers tend to look for the low point of the curve, which indicates the least expensive loan maturity. In this case the low point is 3 months, leading the borrower to seek a short-term loan. However, if a firm borrows long-term and obtains the higher interest rate, that rate is locked in for the life of the loan (30 years in this case). If interest rates rise the borrower may be glad he/she locked in the long-term rate. b. Lenders face the opposite situation. Granting short-term-term loans at relatively low interest rates may look unattractive now; but if short-term rates rise, the lenders will be able to roll over investments at higher and higher rates.

Chapter 3 Solutions

Answers to Review Questions 1. Define intermediation.

The financial system makes it possible for surplus and deficit economic units to come together, exchanging funds for securities, to their mutual benefit. When funds flow from surplus economic units to a financial institution to a deficit economic unit, the process is known as intermediation. The financial institution acts as an intermediary between the two economic units.

2. What can a financial institution often do for a surplus economic unit that it would have difficulty

doing for itself if the surplus economic unit (SEU) were to deal directly with a deficit economic unit (DEU)?

Surplus economic units do not usually have the expertise to determine whether deficit economic units can and will make good on their obligations, so it is difficult for them to predict when a would-be deficit economic unit will fail to pay what it owes. Such a failure is likely to be devastating to a surplus economic unit that has lent a proportionately large amount of money. In contrast, a financial institution is in a better position to predict who will pay and who won't. It is also in a better position, having greater financial resources, to occasionally absorb a loss when someone fails to pay. (This is just one example of the beneficial things financial institutions do for SEUs)

3. What can a financial institution often do for a deficit economic unit (DEU)that it would have

difficulty doing for itself if the DEU were to deal directly with an SEU?

SEUs typically want to supply a small amount of funds, while DEUs typically want to obtain a large amount of funds. Thus it is often difficult for surplus and deficit economic units to come together on their own to arrange a mutually beneficial exchange of funds for securities. A financial institution can step in and save the day. A bank, savings and loan, or insurance company can take in small amounts of funds from many individuals, form a large pool of funds, and then use that large pool to purchase securities from individual businesses and governments. (This is just one example of the beneficial things financial institutions do for DEUs)

4. What are a bank's primary reserves? When the Fed sets reserve requirements, what is its primary

goal?

Vault cash and deposits in the bank's account at the Fed are used to satisfy these reserve requirements; they are called primary reserves. These primary reserves are non-interest-earning assets held by financial institutions. The Federal Reserve requires all commercial banks to keep a minimum amount of reserves on hand to meet the withdrawal demands of its depositors and to pay other obligations as they come due.

14

Many would argue, however, that the reserve requirement is set more with monetary policy in mind than to ensure that banks meet their depositors' withdrawal requests.

5. Compare and contrast mutual and stockholder-owned savings and loan associations.

Some savings and loan associations are owned by stockholders, just as commercial banks and other corporations are owned by their stockholders. Other S&Ls, called mutuals, are owned by their depositors. When a person deposits money in an account at a mutual S&L, that person becomes a part owner of the firm. The mutual S&L's profits (if any) are put into a special reserve account from which dividends are paid from time to time to the owner/depositors.

6. Who owns a credit union? Explain.

Credit unions are owned by their members. When credit union members put money in their credit union, they are not technically "depositing" the money. Instead, they are purchasing shares of the credit union. In general, credit unions exist to pay interest on shares bought by, and collect interest on loans made to, the members.

7. Which type of insurance company generally takes on the greater risks: a life insurance company or a

property and casualty insurance company?

The risks protected against by property and casualty companies are much less predictable than are the risks insured by life insurance companies. Hurricanes, fires, floods, and trial judgments are all much more difficult to predict than the number of sixty-year-old females who will die this year among a large number in this risk class. This means that property and casualty insurance companies must keep more liquid assets than do life insurance companies.

8. Compare and contrast a defined benefit and a defined contribution pension plan.

In a defined benefit plan, retirement benefits are determined by a formula that usually considers the worker's age, salary, and years of service. The employee and/or the firm contribute the amounts necessary to reach the goal. In a defined contribution plan, the contributions to be made by the employee and/or employer are spelled out, but retirement benefits depend on the total accumulation in the individual's account at the retirement date.

9. Special security software is used such that customers who enter their identification and password information can keep sensitive information out of the hands of hackers.

Answers to End-of-Chapter Problems 3-1. a) If there were no financial institutions the SEUs and the DEUs would find that the amount of

money needed by a given DEU did not match the amount of money available by a given SEU. The money available would not be put to work and the economic activity that would have otherwise taken place would not.

b) If financial institutions were available in this society they could position themselves between the

SEUs and DEUs. The financial institution could pool the $1,000 available (100 SEUs times $10 each) and pass that money along in $100 increments to the DEUs. This could be done via either a debt or equity claim that the financial institution would accept from the DEU in return for the money.

3-2. a) .10 rate on loans made - .05 rate paid to depositors = .05 = 5% interest rate spread b) (.5 x .10) + (.5 x .12) = .11 = 11% weighted average loan rate (.5 x .05) + (.5 x .07) = .06 = 6% weighted average deposit rate 11% - 6% = 5% interest rate spread 3-3. ($60M-$11.5M)*.03) +$20M*0.0+$10M*0.0 = $1,455,000 3-4. a) The FOMC should buy government securities in the open market. This would increase the

reserves of the banking system and would put downward pressure on the federal funds rate. b) The Fed’s trader at the New York Federal Reserve Bank would contact various government

securities dealers and would buy the Treasury securities from them. Payment would be made by crediting the accounts at the Fed of these dealers. This would make more funds available and would tend to put downward pressure on the cost of these funds, the federal funds rate.

3-5. a) ($1,000,000 x .08) – ($1,000,000 x .07) = $10,000 a profit of $10,000 b) ($1,000,000 x .08) – ($1,000,000 x .09) = -$10,000 a loss of $10,000

Chapter 4 Solutions

Answers to Review Questions 1. Why do total assets equal the sum of total liabilities and equity? Explain.

Assets = Liabilities + Equity

Assets are the items of value a business owns. Liabilities are claims on the business by non-owners, and equity is the owners' claim on the business. The sum of the liabilities and equity is the total capital contributed to the business, which, by definition, equals the total value of the assets.

2. What are the time dimensions of the income statement, the balance sheet, and the statement of cash

flows? Hint: Are they videos or still pictures? Explain.

The income statement is like a video: It measures a firm's profitability over a period of time (which can be a week, a month, a year, or any other time period).

The balance sheet is like a still photograph. The balance sheet shows the firm's assets, liabilities, and equity at a given point in time.

This cash flow statement like the income statement, can be compared to a video: It shows how cash flows into and out of a company over a given period of time.

3. Define depreciation expense as it appears on the income statement. How does depreciation affect

cash flow?

Accounting depreciation is the allocation of an asset's initial cost over time. Depreciation expense on

an income statement is the amount of the asset=s initial cost allocated to the period covered by the income statement.

Depreciation expense is not a cash flow. Depreciation as an expense category affects cash flow, however, because it is tax-deductible. Depreciation expense lowers a company’s taxable income and, therefore its income tax liability. In this way depreciation reduces cash outflows..

4. What are retained earnings? Why are they important?

Retained earnings represents the sum of all the earnings available to common stockholders of a business during its entire history, minus the sum of all the common stock dividends which it has ever paid. Those earnings that were not paid out were, by definition, retained.

Retained earnings are important because they represent amounts reinvested in a company on behalf

of the company’s owners instead of being paid out in the form of dividends.

17

5. Explain how earnings available to common stockholders and common stock dividends paid from the current income statement affect the balance sheet item retained earnings.

The change in the retained earnings account from one balance sheet to the next equals net income less preferred stock dividends (which is the amount of earnings available to common stockholders) less common stock dividends.

6. What is accumulated depreciation?

Depreciation is the allocation of an asset's initial cost over time. Accumulated depreciation is the total of all the depreciation expense that has been recognized to date.

7. What are the three major sections of the statement of cash flows?

Cash flows from Operations Cash flows from investing activities Cash flows from financing activities Net change in cash balance Cash balance at beginning of period Cash balance at end of period

8. How do financial managers calculate the average tax rate?

Average tax rates are calculated by dividing tax dollars paid by earnings before taxes (EBT). 9. Why do financial managers calculate the marginal tax rate?

Financial managers use marginal tax rates to estimate the future after-tax cash flows from investments. Since they are interested in how much of the next dollar earned from new investments will have to be paid in taxes, they use the marginal tax rate (rather than the average tax rate) to calculate the tax liability.

10. Identify whether the following items belong on the income statement or the balance sheet.

Chapter 5 Solutions

Answers to Review Questions 1. What is a financial ratio?

A financial ratio is a number that expresses the value of one financial variable relative to another. Put more simply, a financial ratio is the result you get when you divide one financial number by another. Calculating an individual ratio is simple, but each ratio must be analyzed carefully to effectively measure a firm's performance.

2. Why do analysts calculate financial ratios?

Ratios are comparative measures. Because the ratios show relative value, they allow financial analysts to compare information that could not be compared in its raw form. For example, ratios may be used to compare one ratio to a related ratio, a firm's performance to management's goals, a firm's past and present performance, or a firm's performance to similar firms

3. Which ratios would a banker be most interested in when considering whether to approve an

application for a short-term business loan? Explain.

Bankers and other lenders use liquidity ratios to see whether to extend short-term credit to a firm. Liquidity ratios measure the ability of a firm to meet its short-term obligations. These ratios are important because failure to pay such obligations can lead to bankruptcy. Generally, the higher the liquidity ratio, the more able a firm is to pay its short-term obligations.

4. Which ratios would a potential long-term bond investor be most interested in? Explain.

Current and potential lenders of long-term funds, such as banks and bondholders, are interested in debt ratios. When a business's debt ratios increase significantly, bondholder and lender risk increases because more creditors compete for that firm's resources if the company runs into financial trouble.

5. Under what circumstances would market to book value ratios be misleading? Explain.

The Market to Book ratio is useful, but it is only a rough approximation of how liquidation and going concern values compare. This is because the Market to Book ratio uses accounting-based book values. The actual liquidation value of a firm is likely to be different than the book value. For instance, the assets of a firm may be worth more or less than the value at which they are currently carried on the company's balance sheet. In addition, the current market price of the company's bonds and preferred stock may also differ from the accounting value of these claims.

25

6. Why would an analyst use the Modified Du Pont system to calculate ROE when ROE may be calculated more simply? Explain.

Actually, an analyst would not use the Modified Du Pont equation to calculate ROE for precisely the reason stated above. What an analyst would use the Modified Du Pont equation for is to help analyze the factors that contribute to a firm's ROE. In other words, analysts use the Modified Du Pont system to “take apart” ROE to see what factors are influencing it.

7. Why are trend analysis and industry comparison important to financial ratio analysis?

Trend analysis helps financial managers and analysts see whether a company's current financial situation is improving or deteriorating. Cross-sectional analysis, or industry comparison, allows analysts to put the value of a firm's ratios in the context of its industry.

Answers to End-of-Chapter Problems 5-1. a) Gross Profit Margin = Gross Profit/Sales 20,000,000/35,000,000 = .5714 Gross Profit margin = 57.14%

b) Operating Profit Margin = EBIT/Sales 16,000,000/35,000,000 = .4571 Operating Profit Margin = 45.71%

c) Net Profit Margin = Net Income/Sales 8,100,000/35,000,000 = .2314 Net Profit Margin = 23.14%

5-2. Current Ratio = Total Current Assets/Total Current Liabilities

(5,000) / (500 +850 + 600) = 2.56 Current Ratio = 2.56

Quick Ratio = (Total Current Assets - Inventory)/Total Current Liabilities (5,000 – 900)/(500 + 850 + 600) = 2.10 Quick Ratio = 2.10

5-3. Average Daily Credit Sales = Annual credit sales/365

5,000,000/365 = $13,698.63

Average Collection Period = Accounts Receivable/Average Daily Credit Sales $500,000/13,698.63 = 36.5 Average Collection Period = 36.5 days

26

5-4. Inventory Turnover = Sales/Inventory 35,000,000/2,400,000 = 14.58 Inventory Turnover = 14.58 X Total Asset Turnover = Sales/Total Assets 35,000,000/(15,000,000 + 20,000,000) = 1 Total Asset Turnover = 1 X 5-5. a) Book Value per share

Book price per share = Common Stock Equity/Number of shares Outstanding $4,500,000/650,000 =$6.92 BPS = $6.92

b) Market to Book Value ratio

Market to book value ratio = Market price per share/Book value per share $25.00/$6.92 = 3.61 Market to book value ratio = 3.61 5-6. a) Gross Profit Margin: $47,378/$94,001 = 50.40%

b) Operating Profit Margin $12,941/$94,001 = 13.77% c) Net Profit Margin $8,620/$94,001 = 9.17% d) Return on Assets $8,620/$66,971 = 12.87% e) Return on Equity $8,620/$54,508 = 15.81%

While the Net Profit Margin is higher than the industry average, the Return on Assets is lower. Pinewood may consider increasing its debt to leverage profits. 5-7. a) Current Assets = $5,534 + $14,745 + $10,733 + $952 + $3,234 = $35,198

Current Ratio = $35,198/$10,074 = 3.494 b) Quick Ratio = ($35,198 - $10,733)/$10,074 = 2.429 Pinewood seems highly capable of paying off short-term debts.

5-8. a) Total Debt = $3,253 + $6,821 + $2,389 = $12,463

Debt to Total Assets = $12,463/$66,971 = 18.61% b) Times Interest Earned = $12,941/$48 = 270 times

Yes. The Pinewood has very low debt and its earnings are extremely high compared to its interest expense.

5-9. a. Average Collection Period $14,745/($94,001 / 365) = 57.25 days

b. Inventory Turnover $94,001/$10,733 = 8.76 c. Total Asset Turnover $94,001/$66,971 = 1.404

We would need to know the industry averages for these figures, and also know about Pinewood’s credit and inventory management practices to comment meaningfully on the above figures.

27

5-10. Modified Du Pont: ROE = Net Profit Margin X Total Asset Turnover X Assets over Equity = 0.0917 X 1.404 X $66,971/$54,508 = 15.82%

5-11. a) EVA = EBIT (1- tax rate) – (invested capital X investor’s required rate of return) EVA = $12,941,000 X (1 - 0.35) – ($77,389,000 X 0.10) = $672,750 b) Pinewood has a true economic profit of $672,750. This is the amount by which its

earnings exceed the returned expected by the firm’s investors. c) MVA = Total market value – invested capital MVA = ($75,000,000 + $2,389,000) – ($54,508,000 + $2,389,000) = $20,492,000 d) Pinewood has a total market value that is $20,492,000 greater that the amount of capital invested in the firm. 5-12. a) EVA = EBIT (1 – Tax Rate) – (invested capital X investors required rate of return)

EVA = $8,000 (.65) – ($33,000 X .12) = $5,200 – $3,960 EVA = $1,240

b) The economic value is positive; therefore, Eversharp earned a sufficient amount during the year to provide more than the expected rate of return from the investors and lenders who contributed to the capital of the company. c) MVA = Total market value – invested capital MVA = $33,000 - $21,000 = $12,000 d) Eversharp’s total market value exceeds its invested capital by $12,000.

5-13. EVA & MVA Calculation:

Income tax rate 35% Cost of Capital 12% Ka Stock Price (ref) $9 Number of shares outstanding (ref) 3,000 Market Value of Common Equity (ref) $27,000 Book Value of Common Equity $15,210 Debt Capital (ref) $6,630 (Notes payable + Long-Term Debt ) Total Invested Capital (ref) $33,630 (Debt + Common) EVA MVA

a. EVA $189 EBIT(1-Tr) - (Invested Capital X Ka)

b. Comment on EVA: This year T & J earned enough to exceed the return expected by the

contributors of the firm's capital by $189.

28

5-14. a. Du Pont: ROA = Net Profit Margin X Total Asset Turnover = (80/1,000) X (1,000/500) = 16%

Modified Du Pont: ROE = Net Profit Margin X Total Asset Turnover X Assets over Equity = ($80/$1,000) X ($1,000/$500) X (1/(1-0.5) = 32%

b. ROE = ($80/$1,000) X ($1,000/$500) X (1/(1-0.7) = 53.3%

c. ROE = ($80/$1,000) X ($1,000/$500) X (1/(1-0.9) = 160%

d. ROE = ($80/$1,000) X ($1,000/$500) X (1/(1-0.1) = 17.78%

Chapter 6 Solutions

Answers to Review Questions 1. Why do businesses spend time, effort, and money to produce forecasts? Explain.

Businesses succeed or fail depending on how well prepared they are to deal with the situations they confront in the future. Therefore they expend considerable sums making estimates (forecasts) of what the future situation is likely to be. Businesses develop new products, set production quotas, and select financing sources based on forecasts about the future economic environment and the firm's condition. If economists predict interest rates will be relatively high, for example, firms may plan to limit borrowing and defer expansion plans.

2. What is the primary assumption behind the experience approach to forecasting?

The experience approach to forecasting is based on the assumption that things will happen a certain way in the future because they happened that way in the past. For instance, if it has always taken you fifteen minutes to drive to the grocery store, then you will probably assume that it will take you about fifteen minutes the next time you drive to the store. Similarly, financial managers often assume sales, expenses, or earnings will grow at certain rates in the future because they grew at that rate in the past.

3. Describe the sales forecasting process.

Sales forecasting is a group effort. Sales and marketing personnel usually provide assessments of demand and the competition. Production personnel usually provide estimates of manufacturing capacity and other production constraints. Top management will make strategic decisions affecting the firm as a whole. Financial managers coordinate, collect, and analyze the sales forecasting information. Figure 6-1 in the text shows a diagram of the process.

4. Explain how the cash budget and the capital budget relate to pro forma financial statements.

The cash budget shows the projected flow of cash in and out of the firm for specified time periods. The capital budget shows planned expenditures for major asset acquisitions. Forecasters incorporate data from these budgets into pro forma financial statements under the assumption that the budget figures will, in fact, occur.

5. Explain how management goals are incorporated into pro forma financial statements.

Management sets a target goal, and forecasters produce pro forma financial statements under the assumption that the goal will be reached. For example, if management’s goal is to pay off all short-term notes during the coming year, forecasters would incorporate this into the pro forma balance sheet by setting Notes Payable to zero.

36

6. Explain the significance of the term additional funds needed.

When the pro forma balance sheet is completed, total assets and total liabilities and equity will rarely match. The discrepancy between forecasted assets and forecasted liabilities and equity results when either too little or too much financing is projected for the amount of asset growth expected. The discrepancy is called additional funds needed (AFN) when forecast assets exceed forecast liabilities and equity, and excess financing when forecast liabilities and equity exceed forecast assets.

7. What do financial managers look for when they analyze pro forma financial statements?

After the pro forma financial statements are complete, financial managers analyze the forecast to determine (1) what current trends suggest what will happen to the firm in the future, (2) what effect management's current plans and budgets will have on the firm, and (3) what actions to take to avoid problems revealed in the pro forma statements

8. What action(s) should be taken if analysis of pro forma financial statements reveals positive trends?

Negative trends?

When analyzing the pro forma statements, managers often see signs of emerging positive or negative conditions. If forecasters discover positive indicators, they will recommend that current plans be continued. If forecasters see negative indicators, they will recommend corrective action.

AFN is incorporated in L-T debt. If $1,466,000 of new L-T debt is issued the financing need will be met. Other financing sources could be used but we chose new L-T debt in this illustration. Question 2, Ratios:

Question 3, Comments on liquidity, asset productivity, debt management, and profitability: Liquidity is improving. Debt is high but stable. Inventory and overall asset utilization are stable. The net profit margin appears healthy. The return on assets ratio is much lower than the net profit margin because of the low asset turnover. The return on equity ratio is much higher than the return on assets because of the high debt load. Question 4, Recommendations: A 20% projected increase in sales is quite impressive. Management should prepare now, however, to raise the $1,466,000 that will be needed in 2013 to support the necessary new investments if the projected sales increase is to be achieved.

Chapter 7 Solutions

Answers to Review Questions 1. What is risk aversion? If common stockholders are risk averse, how do you explain the fact that they

often invest in very risky companies?

Risk aversion is the tendency to avoid additional risk. Risk-averse people will avoid risk if they can, unless they receive additional compensation for assuming that risk. In finance, the added compensation is a higher expected rate of return. People are not all are equally risk averse. For example, some people are willing to buy risky stocks, while others are not. The ones that do, however, almost always demand an appropriately high expected rate of return for taking on the additional risk.

2. Explain the risk–return relationship.

The relationship between risk and required rate of return is known as the risk–return relationship. It is a positive relationship because the more risk assumed, the higher the required rate of return most people will demand. Risk aversion explains the positive risk–return relationship. It explains why risky junk bonds carry a higher market interest rate than essentially risk-free U.S. Treasury bonds.

3. Why is the coefficient of variation often a better risk measure when comparing different projects than

the standard deviation?

Whenever we want to compare the risk of investments that have different means, we use the coefficient of variation (CV). The CV represents the standard deviation's percentage of the mean. Because the CV is a ratio, it adjusts for differences in means, while the standard deviation does not. therefore the CV provides a standardized measure of the degree of risk that can be used to compare alternatives.

4. What is the difference between business risk and financial risk?

Business risk refers to the uncertainty a company has with regard to its operating income (also known as earnings before interest and taxes or EBIT). Business risk is brought on by sales volatility and intensified by the presence of fixed operating costs. Financial risk is the additional volatility of net income caused by the presence of interest expense. Firms that have only equity financing have no financial risk because they have no debt on which to make fixed interest payments. Conversely, firms that operate primarily on borrowed money are exposed to a high degree of financial risk.

43

5. Why does the riskiness of portfolios have to be looked at differently than the riskiness of individual assets?

The riskiness of portfolios has to be looked at differently than the riskiness of individual assets because the weighted average of the standard deviations of returns of individual assets does not result in the standard deviation of a portfolio containing the assets. There is a reduction in the fluctuations of the returns of portfolios which is called the diversification effect.

6. What happens to the riskiness of a portfolio if assets with very low correlations (even negative

correlations) are combined?

How successfully diversification reduces risk depends on the degree of correlation between the two variables in question. When assets with very low or negative correlations are combined in portfolios, the riskiness of the portfolios (as measured by the coefficient of variation) is greatly reduced.

7. What does it mean when we say that the correlation coefficient for two variables is -1? What does it

mean if this value were zero? What does it mean if it were +1?

Correlation is measured by the correlation coefficient, represented by the letter r. The correlation coefficient can take on values between +1.0 (perfect positive correlation) to -1.0 (perfect negative correlation). The closer r is to +1.0, the more the two variables will tend to move with each other at the same time. The closer r is to -1.0, the more the two variables will tend to move opposite each other at the same time. An r value of zero indicates that the variables’ values aren't related at all. This is known as statistical independence.

8. What is nondiversifiable risk? How is it measured?

Unless the returns of one-half the assets in a portfolio are perfectly negatively correlated with the other half—which is extremely unlikely—some risk will remain after assets are combined into a portfolio. The degree of risk that remains is nondiversifiable risk, the part of a portfolio's total risk that can't be eliminated by diversifying.

Nondiversifiable risk is measured by a term called beta (β). The ultimate group of diversified assets, the market, has a beta of 1.0. The betas of portfolios, and individual assets, relate their returns to those of the overall stock market. Portfolios with betas higher than 1.0 are relatively more risky than the market. Portfolios with betas less than 1.0 are relatively less risky than the market. (Risk-free portfolios have a beta of zero.)

9. Compare diversifiable and nondiversifiable risk. Which do you think is more important to financial

managers in business firms?

Diversifiable risk can be dealt with by, of course, diversifying. Nondiversifiable risk is generally compensated for by raising one’s required rate of return. Both types of risk are important to financial managers.

44

10. How do risk-averse investors compensate for risk when they take on investment projects?

Because of risk aversion, people demand higher rates of return for taking on higher-risk projects.

11. Given that risk-averse investors demand more return for taking on more risk when they invest, how

much more return is appropriate for, say, a share of common stock, than is appropriate for a Treasury bill?

Although we know that the risk–return relationship is positive, the question of much return is appropriate for a given degree of risk is especially difficult. Unfortunately, no one knows the answer for sure. One well-known model used to calculate the required rate of return of an investment, given its degree of risk, is the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM).

12. Discuss risk from the perspective of the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM).

The Capital Asset Pricing Model, or CAPM, can be used to calculate the appropriate required rate of

return for an investment project given its degree of risk as measured by beta (β). A project's beta represents its degree of risk relative to the overall stock market. In the CAPM, when the beta term is multiplied by the market risk premium term, the result is the additional return over the risk-free rate that investors demand from that individual project. High-risk (high-beta) projects have high required rates of return, and low-risk (low-beta) projects have low required rates of return.

Chapter 8 Solutions

Answers to Review Questions 1. What is the time value of money?

The time value of money means that money you hold in your hand today is worth more than money you expect to receive in the future. Similarly, money you must pay out today is a greater burden than the same amount paid in the future.

2. Why does money have time value?

Positive interest rates indicate that money has time value. When one person lets another borrow money, the first person requires compensation in exchange for reducing current consumption. The person who borrows the money is willing to pay to increase current consumption. The required rate of return on an investment reflects the pure time value of money, an adjustment for expected inflation, and any risk premiums present.

3. What is compound interest? Compare compound interest to discounting.

Compound interest occurs when interest is earned on interest and on the original principal of an investment. Discounting is the inverse of compounding. Compound interest causes the value of a beginning amount to increase at an increasing rate. Discounting causes the present value of a future amount to decrease at a decreasing rate.

4. How is present value affected by a change in the discount rate?

Present value is inversely related to the discount rate. In other words, present value moves in the opposite direction of the discount rate. If the discount rate increases, present value decreases. If the discount rate decreases, present value increases.

5. What is an annuity?

An annuity is a series of equal cash flows, spaced evenly over time. 6. Suppose you are planning to make regular contributions in equal payments to an investment fund for

your retirement. Which formula would you use to figure out how much your investments will be worth at retirement time, given an assumed rate of return on your investments?

To figure out how much your investments will be worth at retirement time, given an assumed rate of return on your investments, you would use the future value of an annuity formula:

Future Value of an Annuity Formula

k

kPMTFVA

n 1)1(

where: FVA = Future Value of an Annuity PMT = Amount of each annuity payment k = Interest rate per time period n = Number of annuity payments 7. How does continuous compounding benefit an investor?

The effect of increasing the number of compounding periods per year is to increase the future value of the investment. The more frequently interest is compounded, the greater the future value. The smallest compounding period is used when we do continuous compounding--compounding that occurs every tiny unit of time (the smallest unit of time imaginable).

8. If you are doing PVA and FVA problems, what difference does it make if the annuities are "ordinary

annuities" or "annuities due"?

In FVA or a PVA of annuity due problems, annuity payments earning interest one period sooner than in ordinary annuity problems. So, higher FVA and PVA values result with an annuity due. The first payment occurs sooner in the case of a future value of an annuity due. In present value of annuity due problems, each annuity payment occurs one period sooner, so the payments are discounted less severely.

9. Which formula would you use to solve for the payment required for a car loan if you know the

interest rate, length of the loan, and the borrowed amount? Explain.

To solve for k when the known values are PVA, n, and PMT, start with the present value of an annuity formula, Equation 8-3b, as follows:

Present Value of an Annuity Formula, Table Method PVA = PMT X (PVIFAk,n) Next, rearrange terms and solve for (PVIFAk, n) as follows PVA / PMT = (PVIFAk,n)

Now refer to the PVIFA values in the text, Table IV. You know n, so find the n row corresponding to the number of periods in your problem on the left hand side of the table. You have also determined the PVIFA, so move across the n row until you find (or come close to) the value of PVIFA that you have solved for. The percent column in which the value is located is the interest rate.

Chapter 9 Solutions

Answers to Review Questions 1. Which is lower for a given company: the cost of debt or the cost of equity? Explain. Ignore taxes in

your answer. The cost of debt is always less than the cost of equity for a given firm. This is because the debt

investor is taking a lower risk than the equity investor and therefore the required rate of return is lower.

2. When a company issues new securities, how do flotation costs affect the cost of raising that capital? When a company issues new securities flotation costs increase the cost of raising the capital. The

company receives a smaller amount of the proceeds from the new issues, the greater the flotation costs.

3. What does the “weight” refer to in the weighted average cost of capital? The weight referred to in weighted average cost of capital refers to the portion of the total capital

raised by the firm that comes from a given source such as debt, preferred stock or equity. 4. How do tax considerations affect the cost of debt and the cost of equity? Because interest on debt is tax deductible to the issuing firm, the higher the tax rate the lower the

after tax cost of debt financing. Tax considerations do not enter into the cost of equity calculation since dividends paid to stockholders are not tax deductible to the firm.

5. If dividends paid to common stockholders are not legal obligations of a corporation, is the cost of

equity zero? Explain your answer. Although common stockholders do not have a contractual claim on dividends the funds supplied by

stockholders definitely have a cost. Equity investors are paid last and so they are taking the greatest risk among all the suppliers of capital. If the company does not earn a higher rate of return on equity funds to compensate for the higher risk taken by equity investors, the price of the stock will fall and therefore the value of the firm.

6. What is the investment opportunity schedule (IOS)? How does it help financial managers make

business decisions?

63

The investment opportunity schedule shows graphically proposed capital budgeting projects depicting the IRR and dollar amount of investment for each project. This helps the financial manager make business decisions since the investment opportunity schedule and the marginal cost of capital schedule can be plotted together, with those projects on the IOS schedule above the MCC being acceptable.

7. What is a marginal cost of capital schedule (MCC)? Is the schedule always a horizontal line?

Explain. The marginal cost of capital schedule is a graphic depiction of the weighted average cost of capital at

different levels of financing. The MCC schedule is not always a horizontal line. For many firms the MCC schedule increases, usually at discreet intervals, as the amount of funds to be raised increases.

8. For a given IOS and MCC, how do financial managers decide which proposed capital budgeting

projects to accept, and which to reject? For a given IOS and MCC, all independent projects that plot on the IOS above the MCC are

accepted. Those projects on the IOS below the MCC are rejected.

Chapter 10 Solutions

Answers to Review Questions 1. How do we calculate the payback period for a proposed capital budgeting project? What are the

main criticisms of the payback method? We calculate the payback period for a proposed project by adding a project’s positive cash flows, one

period at a time, until the sum equals the initial investment. The number of time periods it takes to cover this investment is the payback period. The main criticisms of the payback method are that cash flows after the payback period are ignored and the time value of money is not considered.

2. How does the net present value relate to the value of the firm? The net present value is the dollar amount of the change to the value of the firm if the project under

consideration is accepted. 3. What are the advantages and disadvantages of the internal rate of return method? The internal rate of return method is a discounted cash flow method and a number expressed as a

percentage. These are typically seen as advantages. The main disadvantage of the internal rate of return is that it is somewhat more difficult to calculate, although this is less true with the ready availability of financial calculators.

4. Provide three examples of mutually exclusive projects. Mutually exclusive projects are projects that compete against each other for our selection. If a firm

were considering the purchase of a new computer, needing only one computer, then the proposals made by the sales reps from Hewlett-Packard, Compaq, and Toshiba would be mutually exclusive projects vying for our selection.

5. What is the decision rule for accepting or rejecting proposed projects when using net present value? When using the net present value decision rule any project with a net present value greater than or

equal to zero would be acceptable. Any project with a negative net present value would be rejected. 6. What is the decision rule for accepting or rejecting proposed projects when using internal rate of

return? Whenever the internal rate of return is greater than or equal to the required rate of return, the hurdle

rate, the project is accepted. When the internal rate of return is less than this required rate of return, the project is rejected.

69

7. What is capital rationing? Should a firm practice capital rationing? Why? Capital rationing is the practice of setting dollar limits on what will be invested in new capital

budgeting projects. Proprietorships, partnerships and private corporations are in a position to do whatever the owners wish. It can be argued, however, that for a publicly traded corporation capital rationing may not be consistent with maximizing the value of the firm. This is because some value adding projects may be rejected if they would cause the firm to exceed its self imposed capital rationing limit.

8. Explain how to resolve a “ranking conflict” between the net present value and the internal rate of

return. Why should the conflict be resolved as you explained? Whenever there is a ranking conflict between net present value and internal rate of return we

generally suggest that the project with the highest net present value be chosen. This is because the net present value method ties more directly with the primary financial goal of the firm, to maximize firm value.

9. Explain how to measure the firm risk of a capital budgeting project. The firm risk of a capital budgeting project measures the impact of adding a new project to the

existing projects of the firm. 10. Why is the coefficient of variation a better risk measure to use than the standard deviation when

evaluating the risk of capital budgeting projects? The coefficient of variation is a better risk measure than the standard deviation alone because the CV

adjusts for the size of the project. The CV measures the standard deviation divided by the mean and therefore puts the standard deviation into context. For example, a standard deviation of .05 may be considered large relative to a mean of .02 but would be considered a small value relative to a mean value of 8.

11. Explain why we measure a project’s risk as the change in the CV.

We measure a project’s risk as the change in the coefficient of variation because this focuses on the change in the riskiness of the firm’s existing portfolio.

12. Explain how using a risk-adjusted discount rate improves capital budgeting decision making

compared to using a single discount rate for all projects? The risk-adjusted discount rate improves capital budgeting decision making compared to the single

discount rate approach because the RADR allows us to set a higher hurdle for the high risk project and a lower hurdle for the low risk project thus aligning our capital budgeting decision making process more closely with the goal of maximizing the value of the firm.

Answers to End-of-Chapter Problems 10-1. Zombiebook: (5 mil) + 2mil + 2 mil + 2 mil + 2 mil --� 2.5 years Angry Rabbits: (5mil) + 1 mil + 1 mil + 1 mil + 20 mil --� 3.05 years Zombie has the lower payback period, 2.5 years versus 3.05 years so if we base our decision on the

basis of payback (choose the project with the lower payback) we would choose Zombiebook over Angry Rabbits. Making this choice, however, is cause for concern. Because the very large $20 million positive cash flow in year 5 for Angry Rabbit occurs after the payback it is ignored when applying the payback decision rule. It doesn’t seem right to ignore such a large positive cash flow. Ignoring this large cash flow after the payback period points out on out one of the weaknesses of the payback decision rule. NPV, IRR, and MIRR would not ignore this cash flow.

Comment: The project is unacceptable because it has a negative NPV. You would not accept it even if you had cash available.

Comment: According to the NPV profile, the discount rate would have to be less than about 8% in order for the project's NPV to be positive.

Comment: The IRR is that discount rate which produces an NPV of zero. Therefore, the IRR could be calculated to determine the "hurdle rate" below which the project's NPV would be positive (8% in this case).

Comment: Both projects have the same NPV at a discount rate of approximately 5.5%. At that discount rate the NPV of both projects is about $45,000.

d. Project selection at other WACCs:

Select Reason

i. WACC > 5.4% Project 2 Project 2's NPV is higher ii. WACC > 8.81% Project 2 Project 1's NPV is negative

iii. WACC > 14.39%

Neither project The NPV for both projects is negative

e) Look at the NPV profile. If the discount rate is 5%, this is to the left of the crossover point. Project 1 would have a higher NPV than Project 2. This would create a ranking conflict if the projects were mutually exclusive. Project 2 has a higher IRR (14.3% for Project 2 versus 8.81 percent for Project 1).

At a discount rate below 5.4%, NPV and IRR give conflicting ranking signals. At a discount rate of 5.4% or more, the ranking of the two projects is the same.

f) a. Both projects would be accepted at a 7.2% cost of capital.

Answers to Review Questions 1. Why do we focus on cash flows instead of profits when evaluating proposed capital budgeting

projects? We focus on cash flows instead of profits when evaluating proposed capital budgeting projects

because it is cash flow that changes the value of a firm. You can spend cash but you can not spend profit.

2. What is a sunk cost? Is it relevant when evaluating a proposed capital budgeting project? Explain. A sunk cost is a cash flow that has already occurred, or that will occur, whether a project is accepted

or rejected. It is irrelevant when evaluating a proposed project. 3. How do we estimate expected incremental cash flows for a proposed capital budgeting project? We estimate expected incremental cash flows for a proposed project by estimating the changes in

sales and expenses that are incremental to the project, adding back the incremental depreciation expense since depreciation expense is a non-cash expense.

4. What role does depreciation play in estimating incremental cash flows? Depreciation expense is a tax deductible expense and therefore affects cash flow through its effect on

taxes. Depreciation expense that is incremental to a proposed project therefore affects incremental cash flows.

5. How and why does working capital affect the incremental cash flow estimation for a proposed large

capital budgeting project? Explain. Many large projects require additional working capital. This investment in additional working

capital becomes part of the initial investment. This investment is recovered at the end of the project’s life. There may be some spontaneous increase in current liabilities associated with a project, but the change in net working capital, if any, is likely to be a positive value requiring an increase in the initial investment of that amount.

6. How do opportunity costs affect the capital budgeting decision-making process? Opportunity costs reflect the foregone benefits of the alternative not chosen when a capital budgeting

project is selected. Any decrease in the cash flows of the firm directly tied to the selection of a new project could be part of the opportunity cost value and included in our capital budgeting analysis.

81

7. How are financing costs generally incorporated into the capital budgeting analysis process? Financing costs are usually captured in the discount or hurdle rate when doing NPV or IRR analysis.

The operating cash flows usually do not include financing costs because this would be double counting.

Answers to Review Questions 1. Describe the general pattern of cash flows from a bond with a positive coupon rate.

Cash flows from a bond with a positive coupon rate consist of periodic interest payments and the face value payment at maturity. Coupon interest payments occur at regular intervals throughout the life of the bond. The face value payment occurs on the maturity date.

2. How does the market determine the fair value of a bond?

The fair value of a bond is the present value of the bond's coupon interest payments plus the present value of the face value payment at maturity, discounted at the market’s required rate of return for the bond in question. Equation 9-1 in the text is use to solve for the fair (present) value of a bond.

3. What is the relationship between a bond's market price and its promised yield to maturity? Explain.

A bond's market price depends on its yield to maturity (YTM). When a bond has a YTM greater than its coupon rate, it sells at a discount from its face value. When the YTM is equal to the coupon rate, the market price equals the face value. When the YTM is less than the coupon rate, the bond sells at a premium over face value.

4. All other things held constant, how would the market price of a bond be affected if coupon interest

payments were made semiannually instead of annually?

Most bonds issued in the United States pay interest semiannually (twice per year). With semiannual interest payments, we must adjust the bond valuation model (Equation 9-1 in the text) by multiplying n, the number of years to maturity, by two, and dividing k, the annual interest rate, by two.

5. What is the usual pattern of cash flows for a share of preferred stock? How does the market

determine the value of a share of preferred stock, given these promised cash flows?

Preferred stock has no maturity date, so it has no maturity value. Its future cash payments are dividend payments that are paid to preferred stockholders at regular time intervals for as long as they (or their heirs) own the stock. Cash payments from preferred stock dividends are scheduled to continue forever. To value preferred stock, we adapt the discounted cash flow model to reflect that preferred stock dividends are a perpetuity. See Equation 9-4 in the text.

6. Name two patterns of cash flows for a share of common stock. How does the market determine the value of the most common cash flow pattern for common stock?

95

Cash flows for a share of common stock consist of dividend payments and the price received for the eventual sale of the share. Common stock valuation is complicated by the fact that common stock dividends are difficult to predict compared to the interest and principal payments on a bond, or dividends on preferred stock. Indeed, corporations may pay common stock dividends irregularly, or not pay dividends at all. As with bonds and preferred stock, the market values common stock by estimating the present value of the expected future cash flows from the common stock. See Equation 9-6 in the text.

7. Define the P/E valuation method. Under what circumstances should a stock be valued using this

method?

The P/E ratio indicates how much investors are willing to pay for each dollar of a stock's earnings. A high P/E ratio indicates that investors believe the stock's earnings will increase, or that the risk of the stock is low, or both. Financial analysts often use a P/E model to estimate common stock value for businesses that are not public. First, analysts compare the P/E ratios of similar companies within an industry to determine an appropriate P/E ratio for companies in that industry. Second, analysts calculate an appropriate stock price for firms in the industry by multiplying each firm's earnings per share (EPS) by the industry average P/E ratio. See Equation 9-9 in the text.

8. Compare and contrast the book value and liquidation value per share for common stock. Is one

method more reliable? Explain.

The Book Value of a firm's common stock is found by subtracting the value of the firm's liabilities, and preferred stock, if any, as recorded on the balance sheet, from the value of its assets. The result is the book value or net worth of the company's common stock. To find the book value per share of common stock, divide the company's book value by the number of outstanding common stock shares. See Equation 9-10 in the text. The liquidation value and book value valuation methods are similar, except that the liquidation method uses the market values of the assets and liabilities, not book values. The market values of the assets are the amounts the assets would earn on the open market if they were sold (or liquidated). The market values of the liabilities are the amounts of money it would take to pay off the liabilities. Since it is based on market values, the liquidation value method is more reliable than the book value method. However, liquidation value is a worst-case valuation assessment. A company's common stock should be worth at least the amount generated per share at liquidation.

96

9. Answer the following questions about the discounted free cash flow model illustrated in Figure 12-4:

a. What are “free cash flows?”

Free cash flows represent the total cash flows from business operations that are available to be

distributed to the suppliers of a firm’s capital each year either in the form of interest to the debt holders, or dividends to the stockholders.

b. Explain the terminal value calculation at the end of the forecast period. Why is it necessary?

The firm whose business operation is being valued is not expected to suddenly cease operating at the end of the discrete forecasting period, but to continue operating indefinitely into the future as a going concern. The terminal value calculation estimates the values of the cash flows that occur in the year following the discrete forecasting period and beyond.

c. Explain the term “present value of the firm’s operations” (also known as Enterprise Value). What

does this number represent?

The present value of the company’s free cash flows represents the market value of the firm’s core income producing operations. In the world of finance and investing this is sometimes called the firm’s Enterprise Value. It is not the total market value of the entire company, however, or the total market value of the company’s assets, because the current, or non-operating assets of the company have not yet been accounted for.

d. Explain the adjustments necessary to translate enterprise value to the total present value of common

equity.

To obtain the value of the company’s common stock, add the value of the firm’s current assets to the enterprise value (this produces the value of the firm’s total assets). Next, subtract the values of current liabilities, long-term debt, and preferred stock. The result is the present value of common equity.

10. Explain the difference between the discounted free cash flow model as it is applied to the valuation of common equity and as it is applied to the valuation of complete businesses.

The Free Cash Flow Model values the complete business as a part of the procedure to value common equity. The value of a complete business is the sum of the values of the operating, or income-producing assets, plus the value of the non-operating, or current assets. All that is necessary to use the Free Cash Flow Model to value a complete business, then, is to add the value of the company’s operations to the value of the company’s current assets.

11. Why is the replacement value of assets method not generally used to value complete businesses?

The replacement value of assets method is not often applied to complete business valuations because it is frequently very difficult to locate similar assets for sale on the open market, and because some of a business’s assets are difficult to define and quantify.

Answers to Review Questions 1. What is the operating leverage effect and what causes it? What are the potential benefits and

negative consequences of high operating leverage? The operating leverage effect is the phenomenon whereby a small change in sales triggers a relatively

large change in operating income. It is caused by the presence of fixed operating costs. The potential benefits are that if sales are rising operating income will rise more quickly. The negative consequences are that falling sales will cause operating income to fall more quickly, including negative values.

2. Does high operating leverage always mean high business risk? Explain. High operating leverage does not always mean high business risk. If the companies sales are quite

stable then the variation in operating income would be small even if the degree of operating leverage were large.

3. What is the financial leverage effect and what causes it? What are the potential benefits and negative

consequences of high financial leverage? Financial leverage is the additional volatility of net income caused by the presence of fixed-cost

funds. The potential benefits are that if operating income is rising net income will rise more quickly. The negative side is that if operating income is falling net income will fall more quickly, including possibly negative values.

4. Give two examples of types of companies likely to have high operating leverage. Find examples

other than those cited in the chapter. Long distance telephone companies and electricity generating companies are likely to have operating

leverage. These two types of companies have very high fixed costs, because they are capital intensive, and have relatively low variable costs.

5. Give two examples of types of companies that would be best able to handle high debt levels.

Companies that handle local telephone service and those that handle natural gas delivery to consumers would be expected to comfortably be able to handle high debt levels. This is because the sales of these two types of companies tend not to react very much to the business cycle. Their sales tend to grow with the population. They are often regulated and protected from competition, although this is not so much true as it was a few years ago.

6. What is an LBO? What are the risks for the equity investors and what are the potential rewards? A leveraged buyout is a purchase of a publicly owned corporation by a small group of investors using

a large amount of borrowed money. The risks for the equity investors are those that exist whenever a high degree of financial leverage exists. So too are the rewards, where small returns become large returns because of leverage.

7. If an optimal capital structure exists, what are the reasons why too little debt is as undesirable as is

too much debt? Too little debt may be as undesirable as too much debt because if a firm has a very conservative

capital structure it may be losing the opportunity to reap the positive benefits of financial leverage. A company with a bright future is probably not maximizing shareholder wealth if it has a very small amount of debt in its capital structure. A more aggressive capital structure may create more value for the owners.

e) Howard Beal Co., having higher fixed costs, and a lower variable cost per unit, has a higher profit potential once they break-even. However, they have a greater loss potential, and need to achieve a higher sales level to break even, because of the high fixed costs. 13-7.

Percentage change in sales = ($92,400 - $84,000)/$84,000 = 10% b) Due to presence of fixed costs a given percentage change in sales gives a higher percentage change in

Answers to Review Questions 1. How does a mortgage bond compare to a debenture? A mortgage bond is a secured bond while a debenture is an unsecured bond. 2. How does a sinking fund function in the retirement of an outstanding bond issue? A sinking fund is where a company puts payments that are then used to buy back outstanding bonds. 3. What are some examples of restrictive covenants that might be specified in a bond’s indenture? An indenture might include limitations on future borrowings, restrictions on dividend payments,

and/or requirements that working capital be maintained at least at some minimum level. 4. Define the following terms that relate to a convertible bond: conversion ratio, conversion value, and

straight bond value. The conversion ratio is the number of shares of common stock that would be obtained if a convertible

bond were converted. The conversion value is the total value of the common stock that would be obtained. The straight bond is the value a convertible bond would have without the conversion feature.

5. If a convertible bond has a conversion ratio of 20, a face value of $1,000, a coupon rate of 8 percent,

and the market price for the company’s stock is $15 per share, what is the convertible bond’s conversion value?

The conversion value would equal the conversion ratio of 20 times the $15 market price of the stock

or $300. 6. What is a callable bond? What is a putable bond? How do each of these features affect their

respective market interest rates? A callable bond can be retired early at the discretion of the issuer. A putable can be retired early at

the discretion of the investor. A call provision increases the market interest rate and a put provision decreases it.

Answers to Review Questions 1. What are some of the government requirements imposed on a public corporation that are not imposed

on a private, closely held corporation? Public corporations must submit audited financial statements to the government for release to the

public. Private corporations can keep their financial information confidential. 2. How are the members of the board of directors of a corporation chosen and to whom do these board

members owe their primary allegiance? Members of a corporation’s board of directors are elected by the common stockholders and owe their

allegiance to these stockholders 3. What are the advantages and the disadvantages of a new stock issue? A new stock issue raises funds and decreases the riskiness of the firm. It also tends to send a

negative signal to the market since many investors believe a company would only sell new stock if future financial prospects were dim.

4. What does an investment banker do when underwriting a new security issue for a corporation? When underwriting a new security issue an investment banker buys it and then resells it to investors. 5. How does a preemptive right protect the interests of existing stockholders? A preemptive right protects the interests of existing stockholders by giving them the opportunity to

preempt other investors in the purchase of new shares. If these rights are exercised, existing shareholders would maintain their same percentage of ownership after the new stock issue as before.

6. Explain why warrants are rarely exercised unless the time to maturity is small? Warrants are rarely exercised until the time to expiration is small because the market price of the

warrant is greater than the exercise value. The holder of the warrant would therefore sell it in the secondary market instead of exercising it if he or she wanted to cash in.

7. Under what circumstances is a warrant’s value high? Explain.

122

A warrant’s value would be high when the stock price, time to expiration, and/or expected stock price volatility are high.

Answers to End-of-Chapter Problems 15-1. Original Ownership = 20,000/1,000,000 = 2%

Diluted Ownership = 20,000 /1,500,000 = 1.33% 15-2. 1. Book Value Approach: (200mil. - 150mil.)/5mil. = $10 per share

2. Liquidation Value Approach: (250 - 150)/5 = $20 per share 3. Replacement Value Approach: (400 - 150)/5 = $50 per share 4. Dividend Growth Model: $2/(0.13 - 0.08) = $40 per share

Ms. Phinlay should buy the stock as the share is selling at a price ($20) which is lower than what she is prepared to pay ($40) to get her required rate of return. 15-3. a) .45(2,500,000) = 1,125,000 [(1,125,000 - 1) X (5 + 1)] / 2,500,000 = 2.669 2 directors b) .55(2,500,000) = 1,375,000 [(1,375,000 – 1) X (5 + 1)] / 2,500,000 = 3.299 3 directors 15-4. a) [(1 X 2,500,000) / (5 + 1)] + 1 = 416,667 b) [(3 X 2,500,000) / (5 + 1)] + 1 = 1,250,001 c) [(5 X 2,500,000) / (5 + 1)] + 1 = 2,083,334 15-5. a) .35 (2,500,000) = 875,000 [(875,000 – 1) (5 + 1)] / 2,500,000 = 2.1 2 directors b) [(2 X 2,500,000)/ (5 + 1)] + 1 = 833,334 15-6.

The minority group can elect 1 of their people to the board out of the 4 to be elected.

123

15-8. NUM VOTING SHARES NEEDED = [(1 X 200,000)/(7 + 1)] + 1 = 25,001. Since Ms. O'Niel holds more shares than required, she can elect herself to the board.

15-9. a) How many directors can the young stockholders elect under

(i) cumulative voting procedure

NUM DIR = (600,000 X 0.30-1) X (13 + 1)/600,000 = 4.2 rounded down to 4

(ii) majority rule: NONE

b) What percentage of voting shares and/or proxies the dissident group must have to be able to elect 7 out of the 13 board members?

NUM VOTING SHARES NEEDED=[(7 X 600,000)/(13 + 1)] + 1=300,001

Percentage of voting shares and/or proxies = 300,001/600,000 ≈ 50% (slightly greater than 50%) 15-10. Number of rights required to buy a share = 500,000/50,000 = 10 15-11. N = 2,000,000/500,000 = 4

Approx. Market Value of a Right = R = (65 - 55)/(4 + 1) = $2 15-12. Market Price of stocks selling ex-rights = 65 - 2 = $63

Approx. Market Value of a Right = R = (63 - 55)/(4) = $2 15-13. N = 7

Approx. Market Value of a Right = R = (77 - 65)/(7 + 1) = $1.50 Market Price of stocks selling ex-rights = 77 - 1.5 = $75.50

15-14. a) Approx. Market Value of a Right = R = (72 - 60)/(4 + 1) = $2.40

b) Maximum number of new shares that Johnny can buy = 700/4 = 175

c) Amount Johnny would spend = 175 X 60 = $10,500

d) Selling price of all of Johnny's rights = 700 X 2.40= $1,680 15-17. a) Approx. Market Value of a Right = R = (62 - 50)/(4 + 1) = $2.40

b) Ex-rights price = $62 - $2.40 = $59.60 per share Diluted price after issue of new stock = $59.6 X 4/5 = $47.68

124

Option I: Sell rights and hold stocks at diluted value:

Amount obtained by selling rights = $2.40 X 60 = $144.00 Value of stocks held at diluted price = 60 X $47.68 = $2,860.80 Unused Cash = $750.00

Net worth from Option I = $3,784.80

Option II: Buy new shares:

Number of shares Selena can buy = 60/4 = 15 Amount to be spent to buy 15 shares = $50 X 15 = $750. So, Selena can buy all the 15 new shares with her available cash.

Diluted price of stocks = $47.68

Net worth from Option II = $47.68 X (60 + 15) = $3,576.00

So, Selena should go for Option I, that is, Sell rights and hold her stocks at diluted value. 15-18. XV = (100 - 85) X 5 = $75 What happens to the exercise value of the warrant if the stock price changes to

a) $110 : XV = (110 - 85) X 5 = $125 b) $80 : XV = $0

Answers to Review Questions 1. Explain the role of cash and of earnings when a corporation is deciding how much, if any, cash

dividends to pay to common stockholders. In the long-run earnings are necessary to maintain dividend payments, but at the time an actual

dividend payment is made, adequate cash is necessary. 2. Are there any legal factors that could restrict a corporation in its attempt to pay cash dividends to

common stockholders? Explain. A firm may be legally restricted as to the dividends it can pay by existing bond indentures or loan

agreements. It may also be restricted as to the payment of common stock dividends is scheduled preferred stock dividends have not been paid.

3. What are some of the factors that common stockholders consider when deciding how much, if any,

cash dividends they desire from the corporation in which they have invested? Common stockholders would consider the company’s investment opportunity, their need for income,

and their tax bracket when deciding on their desire for dividends. 4. What is the Modigliani and Miller theory of dividends? Explain. The Modigliani-Miller theory of dividends says that dividend theory is irrelevant. They claim that it

is the income produced by assets that is important, not how funds are distributed. 5. Do you believe an increased common stock cash dividend can send a signal to the common

stockholders? If so, what signal might it send? An increase in cash dividends is often seen as a positive signal. A company would be unlikely to

increase its dividend if it did not believe its future prospects were good enough to sustain the higher level of dividends. This is because the market usually frowns upon a cut in dividends.

6. Explain the bird in the hand theory of cash dividends. The bird in the hand dividends theory says that dividends received now are better than a promise of

future dividends. Uncertainty is resolved when a dividend is paid.

126

7. What is the effect of stock (not cash) dividends and stock splits on the market price of common stock? Why do corporations declare stock splits and stock dividends?

Stock splits and stock dividends decrease the price per share of the common stock but should not

increase the total market value of all common stock outstanding unless other positive things are perceived to occur. Many companies believe that a stock split or stock dividend makes their stock more affordable and therefore more attractive to a wider range of potential investors.

16-10. 20% Stock Dividend ($000s)

Increase in number of shares = 0.2 X $2 million = 400 thousand Increase in common stock account = 400 X $1 = $400 Increase in capital in excess of par account = 400 X $30 = $12,000 Total increase = $12,000 + $400 = $12,400

This increase is greater than the Retained Earnings of $10,000. Hence it is not possible to pay a 20% stock dividend.

10% Stock Dividend($000s) Increase in number of shares = 0.1 X $2 million = 200 thousand Increase in common stock account = 200 X $1 = $200 Increase in capital in excess of par account = 200 X $30 = $6,000 Total increase = $6,000 + $200 = $6,200

This increase can be covered by a matching decrease in the retained earning account keeping the total equity capital unchanged. The new retained earning will be 10,000 - 6,200 = $3,800. Hence it is possible to pay a 10% stock dividend.

16-20. Comprehensive Problem:

a) Expected Dividend per share = $3,000,000 X 0.5/500,000 = $3 Repurchase Price = $47 + $3 = $50 per share

b) Number of shares that could be repurchased = $3,000,000/$50 = 60,000

c) Before Repurchase of Stock

($ 000s) Common Stock (500,000 shares, $3 par) 1,500 Capital in excess of par ($7/share) 3,500 Retained Earnings 5,000 Total Common Equity 10,000

After Repurchase of Stock

($ 000s) Common Stock (440,000 shares, $3 par) 1,320 Capital in excess of par = 7 X 440 = 3,080 Retained Earnings = 5,000 + (1,500 - 1,320)

+ (3,500 - 3,080) = 5,600 Total Common Equity 10,000

d) If net income next year is expected to be $4 million, what would be the EPS next year with and without the repurchase?

EPS (without repurchase) = $4,000,000/500,000 = $8 EPS (with repurchase) = $4,000,000/440,000 = $9.09

e) If you own 50 shares of common stock of the company, would you like the company's decision of buying back the stocks instead of paying a dividend?

Without Repurchase:

Dividend Earning Last Year = $3/Share X 50 shares = $ 150 Value of stock = $47/share X 50 shares = $2,350

Total = $2,500

131

With Repurchase:

Price of stock = $50/share X 500/440 = $56.82 per share Value of stock = $56.82 X 50 = $2,841.00

The decision to buy back instead of paying a dividend would be preferred if the stock price were to

increase to $56.82 per share with the repurchase. The taxes that may be owed on the $150 in dividends under the no repurchase scenario would decrease further the attractiveness of this alternative.

Answers to Review Questions 1. What is working capital? Working capital consists of the current assets of the firm. 2. What is the primary advantage to a corporation of investing some of its funds in working capital? By investing in working capital a firm gets the liquidity it needs helping it to pay its bills. The risk of

the firm is therefore reduced. 3. Can a corporation have too much working capital? Explain. A firm can have too much working capital if it is losing the opportunity to invest in high returning

fixed assets and if it goes beyond the amount of working capital needed for reasonable liquidity needs.

4. Explain how a firm determines the optimal level of current assets. The optimal level of working capital is determined by finding the amount that balances the need for

liquidity and for profitability. 5. What are the risks associated with using a large amount of short-term financing for working capital? Using a large amount of short-term financing generally allows funds to be raised at a lower cost but

increases the firm’s risk. 6. What is the matching principle of working capital financing? What are the benefits of following this

principle? The matching principle is when short-term financing is used for temporary current assets while long-

term financing is used for permanent current assets and fixed assets. The main benefit of this approach is that as temporary current assets are sold off the proceeds can be used to pay off the short-term debt.

7. What are the advantages and disadvantages of the aggressive working capital financing approach? An aggressive working capital financing approach usually results in a lower cost of funds for a firm

but a higher level of risk.

133

8. What is the most conservative type of working capital financing plan a company could implement? Explain.

An all equity capital structure would be the most conservative type of working capital financing plan

approach. The more long-term financing used the more conservative the financing plan, and equity is permanent financing.

Answers to End-of-Chapter Problems 17-1. a) ($150,000 + $120,000 + $80,000) = $350,000

17-2. Firm 1:

$10,000 + $3,000 + $2,500 = $15,500 (working capital) $15,500 - $7,500 - $4,000 = $4,000 (net working capital) Current ratio = $15,500 / ($7,500 + $4,000) = 1.35 Quick ratio = ($15,500 - $3,000) / $11,500 = 1.09 Firm 2: $8,000 + $6,000 + $3,500 = $17,500 (working capital) $17,500 - $3,500 - $11,000 = $3,000 (net working capital) Current ratio = $17,500 / ($3,500 + $11,000) = 1.21 Quick ratio = ($17,500 - $6,000) / $14,500 = 0.79 Firm 1 is more liquid due to its higher liquidity ratios.

17-3. Company A: NWC = ($1,000 + $400) - $900 = $500 Company B: NWC = ($80 + $880) - $600 = $360

Company A has the higher net working capital and would therefore generally be considered the more liquid company. Although Company A has a slightly smaller current ratio value (1.56 for A and 1.6 for B) Company A has a much higher percentage of cash in its current assets, so would likely be considered by most analysts the more liquid firm.

17-4. a) CA = $30,000 + $15,000 + $130,000 = $175,000

b) CL = $100,000 + $60,000 = $160,000

c) NWC = $175,000 - $160,000 = $15,000

d) 160/(175 X .5) or 183.86% of TCA is financed by CL. This is an aggressive approach since all TCA and most of PCA are being financed with riskier short-term funds.

134

17-5. a) CA = $30,000 + $15,000 + $130,000 = $175,000

b) CL = $30,000 + $20,000 = $50,000

c) NWC = $175,000 - $50,000 = $125,000

d) 50/(175 X .5) or 57.14% of TCA is financed by CL. This is a relatively conservative approach. Long-term financing of $625,000 exceeds the total of fixed assets and permanent current assets, $587,500, by $37,500. Only $50,000 of the $87,500 in temporary current assets is being financed with short-term funds.

17-6. a) CA = $50 + $0 + $40 + $70 = $160

b) CL = $80 + $90 = $170 NWC = $160 - $170 = ($10)

c) All of LuLu Belle’s current assets, and some of the fixed assets, are financed with short-term

funds (current liabilities). This is an aggressive approach.

d) Reduce short-term debt, increase long-term debt and equity and invest in marketable securities. This will increase net working capital and the current ratio.

17-7.

Permanent assets, net fixed assets and a small portion of temporary assets are financed with long-term debt and equity. This is using a very conservative approach. Your exact numbers are likely to be different, but the point is that long-term debt and equity financing are emphasized. 17-8.

Answers to Review Questions 1. What are the primary reasons that companies hold cash? Companies hold cash to make necessary payments, to take advantage of opportunities as they arise,

and to cover unforeseen emergencies. 2. Explain the factors affecting the choice of a minimum cash balance amount. The minimum cash balance amount is determined by how easy it is to raise funds when needed, how

predictable the cash flows are, and how risk averse managers are. 3. What are the negative consequences of a company holding too much cash? A company holding too much cash would be giving up the opportunity to invest more in income

producing assets 4. Explain the factors affecting the choice of a maximum cash balance amount. The maximum cash balance amount is determined by available investment opportunities, the

expected return on investments, and the transaction cost of making investments. 5. What is the difference between pro forma financial statements and a cash budget? Explain why pro

forma financial statements are not used to forecast cash needs. Pro forma income statements deal with revenues and expenses that are not always cash flows while

cash budgets deal only with projected cash inflows and outflows. 6. What are the benefits of “collecting early” and how do companies attempt to do this? Money has time value. The sooner cash is collected, the better. Companies use regional collection

centers and lock boxes to facilitate this. 7. What are the benefits of “paying late” (but not too late) and how do companies attempt to do this? Because money has time value, the later cash is paid, but not too late, the better. Companies use

remote disbursement banks to facilitate holding onto funds longer.

8. Refer to the Bulldog battery company’s cash budget in Table 18-7. Explain why the company would probably not issue $1 million worth of new common stock in January to avoid all short-term borrowing during the year.

Common stock financing is long-term financing so it would probably not be used to meet this short-

term financing need.

Answers to Review Questions 1. Accounts receivable are sometimes not collected. Why do companies extend trade credit when they

could insist on cash for all sales? Extending trade credit almost always leads to more sales. If the incremental cashflows, including the

investment in accounts receivable give a positive NPV, the decision to extend trade credit would increase the value of the firm.

2. Inventory is sometimes thought of as a necessary evil. Explain. Inventory ties up funds and these funds are not earning an explicit return. Some inventory is often

necessary, however, as companies try to hold the lowest acceptable amount. 3. What are the primary variables being balanced in the EOQ inventory model? Explain The primary variables being balanced in the EOQ model are carrying costs and ordering costs. The

more frequent orders are placed the lower the firm’s carrying costs and the higher its ordering costs. 4. What are the benefits of the JIT inventory control system? The just-in-time (JIT) inventory control system lowers inventory carrying costs and tends to increase

quality. 5. What are the primary requirements for a successful JIT inventory control system? For a JIT system to be successful the supplier must be willing and able to deliver materials

immediately and the quality of delivered materials must be high. 6. Can a company have a default rate on its accounts receivable that is too low? Explain. A company could have a default rate on AR that would be considered too low if by liberalizing credit

terms a significant increase in sales revenue and cash inflows were to result. If the increase in the default rate is more than offset by the increase in sales revenue, after all incremental cash flows are considered a positive NPV could result.

7. How does accounts receivable factoring work? What are the benefits to the two parties involved?

What are the risks?

149

Factoring is when one firm sells accounts receivable (AR) to another. The purchasing firm is called a factor. The factor makes a profit by purchasing the AR at a discount. Its risk is that some of the AR may default. The selling firm gets the cash it needs.

Answers to End-of-Chapter Problems 19-1. Accounts Receivable, ACP:

Accounts Receivable = ACP X Sales/365 = 22 X $8,030,000/365 = $484,000 19-2. Accounts Receivable, ACP:

Accounts Receivable = ACP X Sales/365 = 26 X $7,600,000/365 = $541,369.86

The company appears to have relaxed its credit policy since accounts receivable increased as did the average collection period.

19-3. Accounts Receivable, ACP, Credit Policy:

(a) ACP = 0.4 X 15 + 0.57 X 60 + 0.03 X 100 = 43.2 days (b) AR = 43.2 X $730,000/365 = $86,400

19-4. Accounts Receivable, ACP, Credit Policy:

ACP = 0.4 X 10 + 0.58 X 30 + 0.02 X 100 = 23.4 days AR = 23.4 X $657,000/365 = $42,120

19-5. (0.25 X 10) + (0.60 X 20) + (0.15 X 30) =

2.5 + 12 + 4.5 = 19 days

19-6. (0.32 X 10) + (0.67 X 30) + (0.01 X 45) = 3.2 + 20.1 + 0.45 = 23.75 days No, the new policy should not be implemented because the ACP would increase.

EOQ = √[2 X 500 X $250/$300] = 28.87 units ≈ 29 units

Number of orders per year = 500/29 = 17.24 orders ≈ 17 orders Ordering Cost = 17 X $250 = $4,250

19-11. Economic Order Quantity:

EOQ = √[2 X 500 X $250/$330] = 27.52 units ≈ 28 units

Number of orders per year = 500/28 = 17.86orders ≈ 18 orders Ordering cost = 18 X $250 = $4,500

19-12. a) √ (2 X 1,200 X $250) / $100 =

√ 6,000 = 77.46 units per order

b) 1200 / 78 = 15.38 orders per year 19-13. Sales (2010) = 200 X (1 + 0.25) = 250 units

Carrying Costs = $150 X (1 + 0.10) = $165 Ordering Costs = $50 X (1 + 0.10) = $55 √ (2 X 250 X $55) / $165 = √ 166.66 = 12.91 units

Comments: All three proposed inventory policy changes have positive NPVs, and would therefore be acceptable at the firm's cost of capital of 13%. Policy #2, inventory level of 90 units, has the highest NPV, so it should be the alternative selected.

Answers to Review Questions 1. Companies with rapidly growing levels of sales do not need to worry about raising funds from

outside the firm. Do you agree or disagree with this statement? Explain. Disagree. Rapidly growing firms need more assets to accommodate the increasing sales. Such firms

are more likely, not less, to seek outside financing. Internal funds are often insufficient. 2. Banks like to make short-term, self-liquidating loans to businesses. Why? Banks like to be able to see where the funds are likely to come from such that the borrower is able to

use to make the required loan payments. Short term, self-liquidating loans do this since the borrowed funds are used to purchase assets that generate the needed funds.

3. What are compensating balances and why do banks require them from some customers? Under what

circumstances would banks be most likely to impose compensating balances? Compensating balances are funds that a bank requires a customer to maintain in a non-interest

bearing account until the loan is retired. Banks sometimes impose compensating balance requirements so as to increase the bank’s return on a loan. Compensating balances are most likely to be used when the stated interest rate on a loan is below the bank’s required rate of return.

4. What happens when a bank charges discount interest on a loan? When a bank charges discount interest on a loan the required interest payment is subtracted from the

loan proceeds at the time the loan is made. This makes the effective interest rate greater than the stated rate.

5. What is trustworthy collateral from the lenders’ perspective? Explain whether accounts receivable

and inventory are trustworthy collateral. Assets that are readily marketable, of stable value, and not likely to “disappear” make for trustworthy

collateral. Accounts receivable and inventory could meet this test depending upon their particular characteristics.

6. Trade credit is free credit. Do you agree or disagree with this statement? Explain. Trade credit is not free. It has a cost. Who bears that cost depends on the terms of the transaction

between the grantor and the recipient of the trade credit.

7. What are the pros and cons of commercial paper relative to bank loans for a company seeking short-term financing?

Commercial paper is usually a cheaper source of short-term financing for a firm, compared to bank

loans. Also, a larger amount of funds can often be raised by issuing commercial paper. Bank loans are usually a more flexible source of short-term financing and establishing an on-going business relationship with a bank may prove beneficial when money is tight.

Answers to End-of-Chapter Problems 20-1. a) at the end of the year $1,600/$20,000 = 8%

b) at the beginning of the year (discount loan) $1,600/($20,000 - $1,600) = 8.696% 20-2. Effective annual interest = $2,400/($40,000 - $2,400 - $40,000 X 0.10)

= $2,400/$33,600 = 7.143% 20-3. a) Effective annual interest = 1,800/20,000 = 9%

b) Interest = $20,000 X 0.08 = $1,600 Effective annual interest = 1,600/(20,000-1,600) = 1,600/18,400 = 8.70% c) Interest = $20,000 X 0.075 = $1500 Compensating balance = $20,000 X 0.10 = $2,000 Effective annual interest = $1,500/($20,000 - $2,000) = 1,500/18,000 = 8.33%

(i) Which alternative is best for Ralph from minimum effective interest rate point of view?

Alternative c

(ii) Let B be the amount Ralph should borrow

So, X - 0.1 X B = $20,000 Solving, B = $22,222.22 So, Ralph should borrow $22,222.22 and Interest payment = 22,222.22 X .075 = $1,666.67

20-4. Interest = 14,000 X (0.16/4) = $560

Compensating Balance = 14,000 X 0.10 = $1400 Effective annual interest = {1 + [560/(14,000 - 1,400 - 560)]}4 - 1 = 19.94%

20-5. Duration of loan = 2 weeks = 1/26 year

Interest = 10,000 X (0.07/26) = $26.92 Compensating Balance = 10,000 X 0.10 = $1,000 Effective annual interest = [1 + 26.92/(10,000 - 1,000 - 26.92)]26 - 1 = 8.10%

166

20-6. a) Discount = 0.06 X $1,000,000 X 60/360 = $10,000 b) Price = $1,000,000 - $10,000 = $990,000 c) Effective annual interest rate = [$1,000,000/$990,000]365/60 - 1 = 6.305%

20-7. Discount = 0.04 X $2,000,000 X 60/360 = $13,333.33

Price = $2,000,000 - $13,333.33 = $1,986,666.67 Effective annual interest rate = [$2,000,000/$1,986,666.67]365/60 - 1 = 4.15%

20-8. [1 + 2/98]365/(45 - 15) - 1 = 27.86% 20-9. a) 3/10, n 60 [1 + 3/97]365/(60 - 10) - 1 = 24.90%

b) 2/15, n 30 [1 + 2/98]365/(30 - 15) - 1 = 63.49% Re-calculate the costs assuming payments were made on the 40th day in each of the above cases. Compare your results.

a) 3/10, n 60 [1 + 3/97]365/(40 - 10) - 1 = 44.86% (Higher)

b) 2/15, n 30 [1 + 2/98]365/(40 - 15) - 1 = 34.31% (Lower)

20-10. k = [1 + (3 / (100 – 3)) (365 / (45 –15))] – 1

k = .4486 = 44.86% 20.11. a) (.038 X $2,000,000 X 90) / 360 = $19,000

b) $2,000,000 - $19,000 = $1,981,000 c) ($2,000,000 / $1,981,000)(365/90) – 1 = .03947 = 3.95%

20-12. $20,000 X 0.065 = $1,300 (interest)

$1,300 / ($20,000 - $1,300) = .0695 = 6.95% 20-13. $30,000 X 0.10 = $3,000

$30,000 X 0.13 = $3,900 $3,000 / ($30,000 - $3,900) = .1149 = 11.5%

20-14. a) 1.00512 – 1 = 0.0617 = 6.17%

b) 1.00612 – 1 = 0.0744 = 7.44% c) 1.0075 12 – 1 = 0.0938 = 9.38% d) 1.008 12 – 1 = 0.1003 = 10.03%

167

20-15. a) [1 + 1/99]365/(45 - 10) - 1 =11.05% (Lower)

b) Interest = $100,000 X 0.10 = $10,000 Effective annual interest = $10,000/($100,000 - $10,000) = 11.11%

a is the better source since 11.11% is higher than 11.05%.

20-16. a) [1 + 1/99]365/(60 - 15) - 1 = 8.49%

b) Interest = $100,000 X 0.10 = $12,000 Compensating Balance = $100,000 X 0.12 = $12,000 Effective annual interest = $10,000/($100,000 - $10,000 - $12,000) = 12.82%

a is still the better source.

Answers to Review Questions 1. What does it mean when the U.S. dollar weakens in the foreign exchange market? When the U.S. dollar weakens in the foreign exchange market one U.S. dollar buys fewer units of

another country’s currency. It costs more U.S. dollars to buy a given quantity of another country’s currency.

2. What kinds of U.S. companies would benefit most from a stronger dollar in the foreign exchange

market? Explain. U.S. companies that import goods from other countries would benefit from a stronger dollar. More

units of a foreign currency could be purchased for a given number of dollars. Other things equal, this would lower the cost of foreign goods for the U.S. importer.

3. Under what circumstance would the U.S. dollar and the Canadian dollar be said to have achieved

purchasing power parity? The U.S. dollar and the Canadian dollar would be considered to have achieved purchasing power

parity when the exchange rate reflects the relative prices of a market basket of traded goods and services at the current exchange rate. There would be no incentive to convert U.S. dollars to Canadian dollars nor to convert Canadian dollars to U.S. dollars and purchase goods or services in the other country.

4. What are some of the primary advantages when a corporation has operations in countries other than

its home country? What are some of the risks? Foreign operations may reduce a company’s labor or material costs, and may increase its sales.

Risks include possible seizure of company assets by a foreign government, possible cultural blunders that lead to lost sales, and exchange rate risks.

5. What is GATT, and what is its goal? GATT is the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade. It is a treaty that seeks to reduce trade

barriers among participant nations.
