If actual sales are $1,500,000 in 2009, what would be the forecasted sales for Lockit in 2010? 3. Explain why Larry Husky might prefer Equation 3 to Equation 2. 4. Explain the advantages and disadvantages of using Equation 4 to forecast sales.
Ratio analysis for TRI illustrates conservative debt levels and ability to service additional debt. By borrowing $17,450,000 to invest in production equipment and technologies, liquidity ratios change little. Similarly, solvency ratios change little except for the free cash flow ratio, affected by capital expenditures but not offset by loan proceeds in the calculation. Profitability ratios will realize improvements; gross profit ratios will increase from reduced labor costs. Net income ratios benefit from improved gross profit calculations but also include increased interest and depreciation expense from the new loan and equipment, lowering net income.
Profit Maximization is the process that a firm uses to establish where the best output and price levels are, in order to maximize its return. There are two primary methods that can be used to establish profit maximization. One method is the Marginal Revenue minus the Marginal Cost (MR-MC) method. When utilizing this method economists assume that profit would be at its highest when MR and MC are equal, which denotes that for every item made MP=MR-MC. When / if MR is higher than MC then MP would result in a profit for Company A.
Page 484 has formulas!! 6. When the firms maintains a target leverage ratio, we compute its levered value V^L as the present value of its free cash flows using the WACC, whereas its unlevered value V^U is the present value of its free cash flows using its unlevered cost of capital or pretax WACC. 15.3 Recapitalizing to Capture the Tax Shield 1. when securities are fairly priced, the original shareholders of a firm capture the full benefit of the interest tax shield from an increase in leverage 15.4 Personal
We could adjust the DCF to get a value closer to the true value of sequel rights by adjusting the WACC based on the success of the first film. You would require a higher WACC if the first film did not perform well. This calculation essentially creates a probability of a film being made, and will help create a more accurate DCF value. 3. Using the real options model, we estimated a per-film value of a sequel right to be $5.87 Million.
QUESTIONS 1. Table 1 contains the complete cash flow analysis based on GP Manufacturing’s basic information. Explain the inputs into 1) the net initial investment outlay at year 0, 2) the depreciation tax savings in each year of the project’s economic life, and 3) the project’s incremental cash flows? 1. Net initial investment outlay is $302,040.
The correlation between price and how much good/service is supplied to the market is known as supply relationship. In the case of Bodyline in Table 6, as the price goes up, the quantity of Californians would go down. This seems to be logically correct because as the price of a good goes up, people would naturally avoid buying a product that will force them to abstain expenditure of something else they value more. The data in Table 6 is plotted in the graph shown below. According to Price (£) vs. Demand of Californians graph, it shows the negative relationship between price and quantity demanded.
The result is this one: 0.082 (1-0.3879) = 0.05019. The other after tax costs are 0.050498 and 0.05738, respectively for $133 million bond and $100million bond. From the information taken above we conclude that the Cost of total debt = (0.05738 + 0.050498 + 0.05019) / 3 = 0.0526 (5.26%) Cost of the equity, we calculated on question nr 3, and it is 17.6525 %. To sum up, the cost of the capital is nothing more than the sum of the cost of equity and cost of debt, the calculation is this: Cost of capital = 17.6525 % + 5.26% = 22.91 % QUESTION 5: If Wonder Bar uses book value rather than market value to determine its capital structure, what is the impact of the cost of capital on its budgeting decisions? Market value is simply the amount of money that people are willing to pay for a stock.
