Please Answer Question 2 Only:

You have the following initial information on CMR Co. on which to base your calculations and discussion for questions 1) and 2):
• Current long-term and target debt-equity ratio (D:E) = 1:4
• Corporate tax rate (TC) = 30%
• Expected Inflation = 1.75%
• Equity beta (E) = 1.6385
• Debt beta (D) = 0.2055
• Expected market premium (rM – rF) = 6.00%
• Risk-free rate (rF) = 2.15%


1) The CEO of CMR Co., for which you are CFO, has requested that you evaluate a potential investment in a new project. The proposed project requires an initial outlay of $7.15 billion. Once completed (1 year from initial outlay) it will provide a real net cash flow of $575 million in perpetuity following its completion. It has the same business risk as CMR Co.’s existing activities and will be funded using the firm’s current target D:E ratio.
a) What is the nominal weighted-average cost of capital (WACC) for this project?
b) As CFO, do you recommend investment in this project? Justify your answer (numerically).

Please Answer Question 2 Only:

2) Assume now a firm that is an existing customer of CMR Co. is considering a buyout of CMR Co. to allow them to integrate production activities. The potential acquiring firm’s management has approached an investment bank for advice. The bank believes that the firm can gear CMR Co. to a higher level, given that its existing management has been highly conservative in its use of debt. It also notes that the customer’s firm has the same cost of debt as that of CMR Co. Thus, it has suggested use of a target debt-equity ratio of 2:6 when undertaking valuation calculations.
a) What would the required rate of return for BFS Co.’s equity become if the proposed gearing structure were adopted following acquisition by the customer?
b) Would the above project described in 1) be viable for the new owner of BFS Co.? Justify your answer (numerically).

Please Only answer Question 2: Question 1 has been given for context of the question

Please advise us on which company to use as our orange distributor. Three highly recommended distributors have provided us with statistical data on the weekly prices for one load of Valencia oranges per week for a ten-week period last year. Prices fluctuate according to availability, and we would like to use the company with the lowest overall price and the least amount of fluctuation. We would like your written report showing your results and a detailed recommendation as to which company we should choose.

  2. The Fruit Guys Sunny Oranges Tree Groves
    Mean 327 318 317.9
    Median 327.5 315 315

    Range 65 60 69
    Frequency 3270 3180 3179
    Relative Frequency 355 350 359
  3. You need to decide which statistics to compare to determine the overall lowest price and the least fluctuation. Create and include at least two charts that will be useful to best support your conclusions. (PLEASE DRAW THE CHARTS, THANK YOU!)
  4. Write a brief informative letter in response to the request from ABC Grocery answering their request. Be sure to include:
    1. A very detailed explanation of the data and the conclusions you came to. You should use the statistics you calculated to make this decision. (HELPPPPP PLEASEEEE! THANK YOU******)
    2. Charts to support your explanation.
  5. Attach copies of the Excel pages or embed the Excel work in your letter of response.

Carlton Goods Co. makes household appliances at a single manufacturing facility. The expected demand for one of these appliances during the next four months is shown in the table below along with the expected production costs and the expected capacity for producing these items.

Carlton estimates that it costs $2.50 per month for each unit of this appliance carried in inventory, estimated by averaging the beginning and ending inventory levels for each month. For instance, if the beginning inventory of one month is 180 and the ending inventory is 220, the “average” inventory for that month will be (180+220)/2 = 200 and therefore inventory cost will be 2.5 × 200 = 500.

Currently, Carlton has 120 units in inventory on hand for this product. To maintain a level workforce, Carlton wants to produce at least 350 units in each month. It also wants to maintain a safety stock of at least 60 units at the end of each month. Carlton wants to know how many appliances to manufacture during each of the next 4 months to meet expected demand at the lowest cost.  

a)    Formulate the problem as a linear program. Clearly define your decision variables and write the objective function and all constraints in algebraic form.

b)    Create a spreadsheet model for this problem in Excel and solve it with Solver. Attach three snapshots of your setup:  Final view, Formula view, and Solver setup.

c)     What is the optimal solution? What is the total cost of this production plan?

RCA has developed five alternative album covers for the new Clay Aiken cd. On cover one, Clay is surrounded by kitties. On cover two, Clay is surrounded by beautiful women in revealing swimwear. On cover three, Clay’s face has been painted to look like Peter Criss of the rock & roll band “Kiss.” On cover four, Clay is pictured playing miniature golf with his friend Ruben. On cover five, all the viewer sees is a close-up of Clay’s freshly-ironed hair. 20 subjects are shown cover 1 and asked a 5-point (1=strongly agree to 5=strongly disagree) Likert question “I want to buy this CD”, with a mean response of 4.4. 20 subjects are shown cover 2 and asked the same question, with a mean response of 2.05. 20 subjects are shown cover 3 and asked the same question with a mean response of 2.95. 20 subjects are shown cover 4 and asked the same question with a mean response of 3.20. Finally, 20 subjects are shown cover 5 and asked the same question with a mean response of 1.95. The grand mean response across all covers was 2.91.

REWORD THE TEXT TO 6TH GRADE LEVEL DO NOT USE ONLINE SOURCES PLEASE

  • Obama was expected to give his keynote speech on Tuesday night 27 July. Before his presentation, some Obama advisors were worried, because it was the first time he had used a teleprompter.Obama soon went into a brief autobiographical session talking about his grand-dad made a living by working as a servant for the British, to his own dad who had got a scholarship so that he could come to the United States. Then talked about his mother's family, explaining his grandfather fighting in World War II under Patton while his grandmother was working and taking care of his mom..  

  • He spoke about the simple librety enunciated in the Declaration of Independence, and he said in the 2004 election he thought was a time to reassure these values and remember that "We have more work to do." He then went on to mention several Americans he met who weren’t doing good with jobs, healthcare, and education, saying that "they don't expect the government to fix all their problems, but they hope, deep in their hearts, that with just a small change in priorities, we can ensure that every child in America has a fair shot at life and that the doors in opportunity remain open to all.In the next piece of his speech, Obama addressed John Kerry, stating his core principles and convictions on a variety of topics, interrupted by a tale of a young Marine he had met and affirmed that when military action is conducted, the families and soldiers involved must be looked after and that there is a duty to never go to war without adequate troops to win the war, secure peace and gain world respect. "Obama subsequently returned to Kerry and expressed his determination to keep America safe. Obama then discussed the notions of community and cohesion in America that individuals suffering elsewhere affects us even though we are not directly involved in it.
