You are considering to buy a $250,000 property with a 80% LTV ratio and have two mortgage choices: a FRM or a FRM with an IO period. The lender offers the following two loans:

Loan 1: 30 year FRM, fully amortizing monthly payments; 4% interest

Loan 2: 30 year FRM with 4 year IO period, fully amortizing monthly payments; 4.15% interest

Check all the true statements:



If I want to save on interest payments, I would choose Loan 2



If I want to minimize the payments in the first few years, I would choose Loan 2



If I'd like to pay off the loan sooner, I'd choose Loan 1



If I want my payments to remain the same for the duration of the loan, I would pick Loan 1

The Fairmont Hotel in San Francisco needs to replace its air conditioning system. There are two alternatives, both of which can do the job equally well:

Machine name AC 1 AC 2
Purchase price $40,000 $60,000
Operating cost (end of each year) $17,000 $8,000
Useful life (years) 4 6
Straight line depreciation to zero over (years) 4 6
Salvage value at end of useful life $0 $0

The relevant discount rate is 10% and the marginal tax rate is 35%.

What is the operating cash flow for AC 1 per year?
What is the equivalent annual cost for AC 1 (in absolute terms)?
What is the operating cash flow for AC 2 per year?
What is the equivalent annual cost for AC 2 (in absolute terms)?

Jane’s utility function is U(x, y) = x + 2y, where x is her consumption of good X and y is her consumption of good Y. Her income is $2. The price of Y is $2. The cost per unit of X depends on how many units she buys. The total cost of x units of X is the square root of x.

  1. The bundle ( 1 4, 3 4 ) is Jane’ s utility maximizing choice, given her budget.

  2. The bundle (1, 1 2 ) is Jane’ s utility maximizing choice, given her budget.

  3. Given her budget, Jane would maximize her utility by spending all of her income on

    good X.

  4. Given her budget, Jane would maximize her utility by spending all of her income on

    good Y.

The current price of the shares of Company XYZ is $50. There are N = 1 million shares outstanding. Next year’s (year 1) earnings and dividends per share are $4 and $2, respectively. Investors expected perpetual dividend growth at g = 8% per year. The expected rate of return demanded by investors is r=12%.

Suppose that the company announces that it will increase its dividend from $2 per share to $4 per share next year (year1), and the extra cash needed will be financed by issuing new shares. However, the dividends after next year follow the old schedule, as in part a).

(d) What will be the price of the new shares that the firm issue in year 1? How many new shares will be issued?

(e) How much dividend will the old shareholders get in year 2?

(f) What should the current stock price be under the new policy?
