This week, let's talk about investments andinvestment risk. In class with you today are individuals with various experience in investing - some may be seasoned professionals, while others may have very little experience. Either case is perfect okay because we all approach investing, risk, and return differently.
When you invest your money, you have to consider a basic risk-return tradeoff. The risk-return tradeoff is the balance between the desire for the lowest possible risk and the highest possible returns. In general, low levels of uncertainty (low risk) are associated with low potential returns and high levels of uncertainty (high risk) are associated with high potential returns (link).

DELSING CANNING COMPANY IS CONSIDERING AN EXPANSION OF ITS FACILITIES. ITS CURRENT INCOME STATEMENT IS AS FOLLOWS:
SALES............................................................................
7,100,100
VARIABLE COSTS (50% OF
SALES).............................3,550,000
FIXED
COSTS.................................................................2,010,000

SHARES COMMON
STOCK..............................................410,000
EPS...........................................................................................1.57
The company is currently financed with 50% debt and 50% equity
(common stock, par value of $10). In order to expand the
facilities, Mr. Delsing estimates a need for $4.1 million in
additional financing. His investment banker has laid out three
plans for him to consider:
1) Sell $4.1 million of debt at 11%
2) Sell $4.1 million of common stock at $20 per share
3) Sell $2.05 million of debt at 10% and $2.05 million of common
stock at $25 per share.
Variable costs are expected to stay at 50% of sales, while fixed expenses will increase to $2,510,000 per year. Delsing is not sure how much this expansion will add to sales, but he estimates sales will rise by $2.05 million per year for the next 5 years.
Delsing is interested in a thorough analysis of his expansion plans and methods of financing. He would like you to analyze the following:
a. The break-even point for operating expenses before and after expansion (in sales dollars). ENTER YOUR ANSWERS IN DOLLARS NOT IN MILLIONS, I.E. $1,234,567.
| BREAK-EVEN POINT | |
| BEFORE EXPANSION | |
| AFTER EXPANSION |
b. The degree of operating leverage before and after
expansion. Assume sales of $7.1 million before expansion, and $8.1
million after expansion. Use the formula
DOL = (S - TVC) / (S - TVC - FC). ROUND YOUR ANSWERS TO 2
DECIMAL PLACES.
| DEGREE OF OPERATING LEVERAGE | |
| BEFORE EXPANSION | |
| AFTER EXPANSION |
c. The degree of financial leverage before expansion. ROUND YOUR ANSWERS TO 2 DECIMAL PLACES.
d. The degree of financial leverage for all three methods after expansion. Assume sales of $8.1 million for this question. ROUND YOUR ANSWERS TO 2 DECIMAL PLACES.
| DEGREE OF FINANCIAL LEVERAGE | |
| 100 % DEBT | |
| 100% EQUITY | |
| 50% DEBT & 50% EQUITY |
e. Compute EPS under all three methods of financing the expansion at $8.1 million in sales (first year) and $11.0 million in sales (last year). ROUND ANSWERS TO 2 DECIMAL PLACES.
