. (#1 Form B) Business risk Answer: d Diff: E . (#2 Form B) Capital structure Answer: a Diff: E N . (#3 Form B) Capital structure, ROA, and ROE Answer: d Diff: E N Statements a and b are correct; therefore, statement d is the appropriate choice. ROA = NI/TA. If total assets remain the same, but NI decreases (because of the new interest payment), ROA will decrease. NI will fall, but not as much in comparison to the amount that common equity will fall, thus ROE = NI/CE will rise. BEP will remain the same. BEP = EBIT/TA, where TA and EBIT remain the same. . (#4 Form B) Optimal capital structure Answer: d Diff: M . (#5 Form B) Signaling theory predictions Answer: b Diff: M . (#6 Form B) Determining price Answer: e Diff: E EBIT = PQ - VQ - FC $95,000 = P(55,000) - (0.4)P(55,000) - $110,000 $205,000 = (0.6)(55,000)P $205,000 = 33,000P P = $6.21. . (#7 Form B) Breakeven price Answer: a Diff: E Total costs = $10,000 + $2(42,000) = $94,000. Price = $94,000/42,000 = $2.24. . (#8 Form B) New financing Answer: a Diff: M Old debt ratio = 0.3333; New debt ratio = 0.1667. = 7.5. TA = = $100,000. Debt = 0.3333($100,000) = $33,330. New TA = $100,000 + $100,000 = $200,000. New Debt = $200,000(0.1667) = $33,340. Altman's current debt of $33,330 represents approximately 16.67% of total assets following the expansion, thus the firm should finance with 100 percent equity. . (#9 Form B) Change in breakeven volume Answer: b Diff: M Calculate the old and new breakeven volumes using the old data and new projections: Old QBE = $120,000/($1.20 - $0.60) = $120,000/$0.60 = 200,000 units. New QBE = $240,000/($1.05 - $0.41) = $240,000/$0.64 = 375,000 units. Change in breakeven volume = 375,000 - 200,000 = 175,000 units. .
