Last year Swensen Corp. had sales of $303,225, operating costs of $267,500, and year-end assets of $163,000. The debt-to-total-assets ratio was 27%, the interest rate on the debt was 8.2%, and the firm's tax rate was 37%. The new CFO wants to see how the ROE would have been affected if the firm had used a 45% debt ratio. Assume that sales and total assets would not be affected, and that the interest rate and tax rate would both remain constant. By how much would the ROE change in response to the change in the capital structure? Select the correct answer. a. 3.27% b. 4.47% c. 4.17% d. 3.87% e. 3.57%

3. A firm has the following three projections of revenue estimates:
Current Year1 Year 2 Year 3
Revenue $1,500 $1,650 $1,815 $2,000
EAT $95 $106 $117 $130
The company also receives a royalty net after taxes of $10 million per year. It is expected that the cash flows equal to depreciation will have to be reinvested to keep the firm operating. Further, capital expenditures equal to 60 percent of the net cash flow will need to be invested to keep the firm growing. Other items on the balance sheet remain unchanged. The CFO believes that it will just forecast for the first three years and then simply assume a 6 percent annual growth rate after the third year.

A 5-year Treasury bond has a 4.7% yield. A 10-year Treasury bond yields 6.15%, and a 10-year corporate bond yields 8.05%. The market expects that inflation will average 2.25% over the next 10 years (IP10 = 2.25%). Assume that there is no maturity risk premium (MRP = 0) and that the annual real risk-free rate, r*, will remain constant over the next 10 years. (Hint: Remember that the default risk premium and the liquidity premium are zero for Treasury securities: DRP = LP = 0.) A 5-year corporate bond has the same default risk premium and liquidity premium as the 10-year corporate bond described.
What is the yield on this 5-year corporate bond? Round your answer to two decimal places.
