Suppose that you are purchasing a house (loan amount = $200,000) and inquire about the terms for a 30-year fixed-rate mortgage.

LOAN A:

• annual interest rate of 3.75% with monthly payments and compounding
• no discount points
• origination fee of 0.75%
• $928 in third-party closing costs

What is the Effective Borrowing Cost for loan A assuming no prepayment? What is the EBC for the loan if we prepay at the end of the third year?

12. a. How is “bond risk” measured?

b. If a bond has modified duration of 5, how will a 1% increase in interest rates affect the price?

ExxonMobil has historically had a very low debt-to-equity ratio within the oil industry, but it recently issued $12 billion in new debt to raise capital to buy up distressed rivals. The cost of this debt turns out to have been around 2%. In this problem we'll calculate how this bond issuance may have affected ExxonMobil's cost of capital.

For the sake of this problem, assume that ExxonMobil was an unlevered firm prior to this debt issuance (at the time of the above mentioned debt issuance the debt-to-equity ratio of ExxonMobil was just over 0.1, so ExxonMobil was pretty unlevered at the time). The equity beta of ExxonMobil is 0.85, the risk-free rate of return is 0.5% and the market risk premium is 4%. The EBIT for ExxonMobil is $15 billion, which you can assume will remain constant in perpetuity. The tax rate is 35%, and earnings after taxes are paid out entirely as dividends.

Your task in this problem is to calculate the WACC for ExxonMobil before and after the bond issuance.

how can investors use common stock valuation method and interpret the subjective aspect of it.

What are the problems in undertaking policy evaluation?

The company is considering the introduction of a new product that is expected to reach sales of $10 million in its first full year and $13 million of sales in the second and third years. Thereafter, annual sales are expected to decline to two-thirds of peak annual sales in the fourth year and one-third of peak sales in the fifth year. No more sales are expected after the fifth year. The CGS is about 60% of the sales revenues in each year. The GS&A expenses are about 23.5% of the sales revenue. Tax on profits is to be paid at a 40% rate. A capital investment of $0.5 million is needed to acquire production equipment. No salvage value is expected at the end of its five-year useful life. This investment is to be fully depreciated on a straight-line basis over five years. In addition, working capital is needed to support the expected sales in an amount equal to 27% of the sales revenue. This working capital investment must be made at the beginning of each year to build up the needed inventory and implement the planned sales program. Furthermore, during the first year of sales activity, a one-time product introductory expense of $200,000 is incurred. Approximately $1.0 million has already been spent promoting and test marketing the new product.

a. Formulate a multiyear income statement to estimate the cash flows throughout its five-year life cycle.

b. Assuming a 20% discount rate, what is the new product’s NPV?

c. Should the company introduce the new product?

Conch Republic Electronics

Conch Republic Electronics is a mid sized electronics manufacturer located in Key West, Florida. The company president is Shelley Couts, who inherited the company. When it was founded over 70 years ago, the company originally repaired radios and other household appliances. Over the years, the company expanded into manufacturing and is now a reputable manufacturer of various electronic items. Jay McCanless, a recent MBA graduate, has been hired by the company's finance department.

One of the major revenue-producing items manufactured by Conch Republic is a personal digital assistant (PDA). Conch Republic currently has one PDA model on the market, and sales have been excellent. The PDA is a unique item in that it comes in a variety of tropical colors and is preprogrammed to play Jimmy Buffett music. However, as with any electronic item, technology changes rapidly, and the current PDA has limited features in comparison with newer models. Conch Republic developed a prototype for a new PDA that has all the features of the existing PDA but adds new features such as cell phone capability. The company has performed a marketing study to determine the expected sales figures for the new PDA.

Conch Republic can manufacture the new PDA for $200 each in variable costs. Fixed costs for the operation are estimated to run $4.5 million per year. The estimated sales volume is 70,000, 80,000, 100,000, 85,000, and 75,000 per each year for the next five years, respectively. The unit price of the new PDA will be $340. The necessary equipment can be purchased for $16.5 million and will be depreciated on a 5 year straight-line schedule.

Net working capital investment for the PDAs will be $6,000,000 the first year of operations. Of course NWC will be recovered at the projects end. Conch Republic has a 35 percent corporate tax rate and a 12 percent required return.

Shelly has asked Jay to prepare a report that answers the following questions:

1. What is the IRR of the project?
2. What is the NPV of the project, based on the required rate of return of 12%?
