Olsen Outfitters Inc. believes that its optimal capital structure consists of 70% common equity and 30% debt, and its tax rate is 40%. Olsen must raise additional capital to fund its upcoming expansion. The firm will have $4 million of retained earnings with a cost of r_s = 10%. New common stock in an amount up to $7 million would have a cost of r_e = 11.5%. Furthermore, Olsen can raise up to $3 million of debt at an interest rate of r_d = 11% and an additional $6 million of debt at r_d = 14%. The CFO estimates that a proposed expansion would require an investment of $7.9 million. What is the WACC for the last dollar raised to complete the expansion? Round your answer to two decimal places.

The manufacturer of hardness testing equipment uses​ steel-ball indenters to penetrate metal that is being tested.​ However, the manufacturer thinks it would be better to use a diamond indenter so that all types of metal can be tested. Because of differences between the two types of​ indenters, it is suspected that the two methods will produce different hardness readings. The metal specimens to be tested are large enough so that two indentions can be made.​ Therefore, the manufacturer uses both indenters on each specimen and compares the hardness readings. Construct a​ 95% confidence interval to judge whether the two indenters result in different measurements.

​Note: A normal probability plot and boxplot of the data indicate that the differences are approximately normally distributed with no outliers.

Specimen   Steel ball   Diamond
1 50 52
2 57 55
3 61 63
4 70 74
5 68 69
6 54 55
7 65 68
8 51 51
9 53 56

Construct a​ 95% confidence interval to judge whether the two indenters result in different​ measurements, where the differences are computed as​ 'diamond minus steel​ ball'.

1. Membrane-associated translocators are responsible for importing polypeptides into both mitochondria and peroxisomes. The processes in the two organelles are different because _______________.

   		mitochondria have only one membrane translocator complex and peroxisomes have two
   		polypeptides are unfolded during translocation into mitochondria but not peroxisomes
   		mitochondrial polypeptides bind to cytosolic receptors or chaperones and peroxisomal polypeptides do not
   		peroxisome import requires signal sequences while mitochondrial import does not

Transfer pricing company is a two division firm, consisting of a manufacturing division and a distribution division. Manufacturing division produces a single product, called product X. The cost of producing product X consists of a variable cost of $50 per unit, and a fixed cost of $100 per unit. This fixed cost per unit is calculated assuming that Manufacturing runs at its capacity of 10,000 units. Assume there is an external customer that contracts with Manufacturing to buy up to 4,000 units of product X for $200 per unit. More precisely, assume that the external customer will pay $200 per unit for any number of units that Manufacturing ships to it, up to 4,000 units, but it will not buy more than 4,000 units.

Q1. The distribution division wants 8,000 units of product X from the manufacturing division. Calculate the transfer price for the internal transfer of 8,000 units of product X according to the general transfer pricing rule.

Q2. The distribution division wants 10,000 units of product X from the manufacturing division. Calculate the transfer price for the internal transfer of 10,000 units of product X according to the general transfer pricing rule.

Q3. Compute the payback period of a project that requires an initial investment of $500,000 in year zero and pays back $100,000, $300,000, $400,000, and $200,000 in years 1 through 4.

Q4. Compute the discounted payback period of a project that requires an initial investment of $500,000 in year zero and pays back $100,000, $300,000, $400,000, and $200,000 in years 1 through 4. Assume that 10% is the appropriate discount rate of the project

B.) FIN3100 issued bonds with a 15-year maturity two year ago. The bonds have a 7% coupon, make one payment per year, and sold at their $1,000 par value. Market rate at the time was 7%. Now, two year later, the market rate has declined from 7% to 4%. At what price should FIN3100's bonds now sell?

C.)

FIN3100’s bonds have a 15-year maturity, a 12% quarterly coupon ($30 coupon payments are made every three months), a face value of $1,000, and cannot be called. The going nominal annual interest rate (rd) for similar quarterly payment bonds of equivalent risk is 8%. What is the bond's price?
