How much will be accumulated from the coupons received and reinvested? d. Putting the answers from b and c above together, how much does the investor have at the end of 4 years?

Stevens Textile Corporation's 2016 financial statements are shown below:

Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2016 (Thousands of Dollars)

Income Statement for January 1 - December 31, 2016 (Thousands of Dollars)

1. Suppose 2017 sales are projected to increase by 25% over 2016 sales. Use the forecasted financial statement method to forecast a balance sheet and income statement for December 31, 2017. The interest rate on all debt is 6%, and cash earns no interest income. Assume that all additional debt in the form of a line of credit is added at the end of the year, which means that you should base the forecasted interest expense on the balance of debt at the beginning of the year. Use the forecasted income statement to determine the addition to retained earnings. Assume that the company was operating at full capacity in 2016, that it cannot sell off any of its fixed assets, and that any required financing will be borrowed as a line of credit. Also, assume that assets, spontaneous liabilities, and operating costs are expected to increase by the same percentage as sales. Determine the additional funds needed. Round your answers to the nearest dollar. Do not round intermediate calculations.

Consider a project with a 4-year life. The initial cost to set up the project is $100,000. This amount is to be linearly depreciated to zero over the life of the project and there is no salvage value. The required return is 13% and the tax rate is 34%.

You have just been offered a contract worth $ 1.07 million per year for 7 years.​ However, to take the​ contract, you will need to purchase some new equipment. Your discount rate for this project is 12.3 %. You are still negotiating the purchase price of the equipment. What is the most you can pay for the equipment and still have a positive NPV​? The most you can pay for the equipment and achieve the 12.3 % annual return is ​_ million.

For this question start fresh, do not carry over data from earlier questions. You are analyzing the prospects of installing cost saving machinery. You have the following information:

• The machine costs $84,000. Depreciation is calculated straight line (equal amounts) over 4 years.

• Every year the machine increases cash flows by an amount 40,000. (Taxes, Opportunity Cost etc. have all been accounted for in this number. There is no Net Working Capital.)

• After 3 years (when the machine has only been depreciated for 3 years and therefore the book value is not zero) the machine is sold for $30,000. This, therefore, is a 3-year project.

• The rate of discount is 8%.

• The tax rate is 36%.

• (Hint: Here you have to consider the income due to the salvage sale of the machinery and the taxes on this sale.)

What is the NPV of installing the machinery?

Laura Drake wishes to estimate the value of an asset expected to provide cash inflows of $1,800 for each of the next 4 years and $8,356 in 5 years. Her research indicates that she must earn 4% on low-risk assets, 8% on average-risk assets, and 13% on high-risk assets.

1. Determine what is the most Laura should pay for the asset if it is classified as (1) low-risk (2) average-risk (3) high-risk.
2. Suppose Laura is unable to assess the risk of the asset and wants to be certain she’s making a good deal. On the basis of your findings in part a, what is the most she would pay? Why?
3. All else being the same, what effect does increasing risk have on the value of the asset? Explain in light of your findings in part a.

1. Consider a US company that imports German goods. What effect will a sudden depreciation of the dollar relative to the euro have on the P/E ratio of the U.S. company? Discuss the effect both the possibilities—the company being able to completely pass through the dollar depreciation to its customers and the company being unable to completely pass through the dollar depreciation to its customers.

You are constructing a portfolio of two assets, Asset A and Asset B. The expected returns of the assets are 8 percent and 13 percent, respectively. The standard deviations of the assets are 30 percent and 38 percent, respectively. The correlation between the two assets is 0.43 and the risk-free rate is 5.6 percent. What is the optimal Sharpe ratio in a portfolio of the two assets? What is the smallest expected loss for this portfolio over the coming year with a probability of 5 percent? (A negative value should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your Sharpe ratio answer to 4 decimal places and the z-score value to 3 decimal places when calculating your answer. Enter your smallest expected loss as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places.)
