You have the following financial statement data for a corporation: Revenue = 10,000,000
Operating income = 7,500,000 interest = 2,500,000
Net Income = 4,000,000 Current Assets = 10,000,000 Total Assets = 100,000,000 Current Liabilities = 8,000,000 Long-term Debt = 50,000,000
Total Common Equity = 42,000,000
You also have the following information: Total Dividends Paid = 1,000,000 Common shares outstanding = 2,000,000
Current share price = $27
The long-term debt consists of one bond issue that has 6 years remaining until maturity. Each bond has a par value of $1,000 and pays an annual coupon. The current yield-to-maturity on the bond issue is 8%.
The firm is considering a capital budgeting project that will require an initial outlay of $1,000,000 that is expected to produce net cash inflow of $200,000 each year for the next 7 years, at which time the project will end. The project under consideration is considered to be of equal risk as the firm's typical project. The firm has not made a decision as to how it will finance the project, if necessary. If it issues new equity to finance the project, it could sell new common equity at the current market price, while incurring total flotation cost of 5%.
The current risk-free rate of return for the market 2%, and the market risk-premium is estimated to stand at 7.5%. You know nothing about the firm's expected dividend policy, but you do know that the firm's equity Beta is 1.8
Based on the information you have, answer the following questions about the firm (You must show work for each question and answer each question separately in order to earn full credit):
a. firm's profit margin = Net income/revenues/sales = 4,000,000/10,000,000 = 0.4 or 40%
b. firm's equity multiplier = Total assets/common equity = 100,000,000/42,000,000 = 2.38
c. firm's P/E ratio = Stock price/earnings per share
Earnings per share = earnings/no. of shares outstanding = 4,000,000/2,000,000 = 2
firm's P/E ratio = 27/2 = 13.5
d. firm's current ratio = current assets/current liabilities = 10,000,000/8,000,000 = 1.25
e. firm's capital structure according to book value = book value of debt/total capital and book value of equity/total capital
book value of debt = 50,000,000; book value of equity = 42,000,000
Total capital = 50,000,000 + 42,000,000 = 92,000,000
book value weight of debt = 50,000,000/92,000,000 = 0.54 or 54%
book value weight of equity = 42,000,000/92,000,000 = 0.46 or 46%
firm's capital structure according to book value is 54% debt and 46% equity.
f. market value of the firm's equity = no. of shares outstanding*market price per share = 2,000,000*27 = 54,000,000
