Filer Manufacturing has 7 million shares of common stock outstanding. The current share price is $73, and the book value per share is $8. Filer Manufacturing also has two bond issues outstanding. The first bond issue has a face value of $75 million, has a 8 percent coupon, and sells for 98 percent of par. The second issue has a face value of $55 million, has a 9 percent coupon, and sells for 107 percent of par. The first issue matures in 23 years, the second in 7 years.
The most recent dividend was $4.5 and the dividend growth rate is 8 percent. Assume that the overall cost of debt is the weighted average of that implied by the two outstanding debt issues. Both bonds make semiannual payments. The tax rate is 30 percent.

College playboy “Studley” Moore likes to throw lavish parties in his spacious Davis apartment. He has one quirk though. He insists that every guest, on their way in, play a game of “odd or even” with him. Each of the two sticks out one or two fingers, and Studley wins if the sum is even. Studley pays the guest $5 when the sum is odd (i.e., there are oneor three fingers showing), but he collects $6 when the sum is two and $4 when the sum is four. Suppose that Studley uses the strategy of sticking out one finger with probability 7/12 and two fingers with probability 5/12. Assume that each guest chooses one or two fingers with equal probability. Find the probability distribution for Studley's winnings W in a game of odd or even, and compute Studley's expected winnings in this game. Would always sticking out one finger be a better strategy for Studley (up until he gets found out)?

At the beginning of Year One, a company issues 40,000 shares of $2 par value common stock for $23 per share in cash. The company also issues 10,000 shares of $40 par value preferred stock that pays an annual dividend of 10 percent. No dividend is paid in Year One but a total dividend of $100,000 is distributed in Year Two.
a. If the preferred stock dividend is not cumulative, what is reported on the financial statements
about the dividend at the end of Year One?
b. If the preferred stock dividend is not cumulative, what amount of cash dividend does each share
of common stock receive in Year Two?
c. If the preferred stock dividend is cumulative, what is reported on the financial statements about
the dividend at the end of Year One?
d. If the preferred stock dividend is cumulative, what amount of cash dividend does each share of
common stock receive in Year Two?
