A 20-year loan of 150,000 is negotiated with the borrower agreeing to repay principal and interest at 5%. A level payment of 9,000 will apply during the first ten years and a higher level payment will apply during the remaining ten years. Each time the lender receives a payment from the borrower, he will deposit the portion representing the principal into a sinking fund with an annual effective interest rate of 4%. (Assume that the interest portion remains level throughout these 20 years and assume that all but the interest portion is deposited into the sinking fund.) This scheme will replace the lender’s capital.

Find the lender’s yield on this investment.

A 5-year project requires a $300,000 investment in a machine that is expected to worth $50,000 when the project ends. Operating expenses are expected to be $75,000 in the first year and are expected to increase 3% per year over the life of the project. The appropriate discount rate is 8%, the company’s tax rate is 20%, and the CCA rate is 30%. What amount would you use for salvage value in your NPV calculation

12. A 11-year bond with a face value of $5000 is redeemable at par and earns interest at 10.3% convertible semiannually. If the yield rate is 7% convertible semiannually, find the book value 2 months before the payment of the 9th coupon. (Use simple interest for the time between coupon payments.)

Sandy Corp. projects that it will have taxable income of $116,000 for the year before paying any fringe benefits. Assume Karen, Sandy’s sole shareholder, has a marginal tax rate of 35 percent on ordinary income and 15 percent on dividend income. Assume Sandy’s tax rate is 35 percent.

a. What is the amount of the overall tax (corporate level + shareholder level) on Sandy’s $116,000 of pre-benefit income if Sandy Corp. does not pay out any fringe benefits and distributes all of its after-tax earnings to Karen (ignore the net investment income tax)?

b. What is the amount of the overall tax on Sandy’s $116,000 of pre-benefit income if Sandy Corp. pays Karen’s adoption expenses of $10,000 and the payment is considered to be a nontaxable fringe benefit (ignore the net investment income tax)? Sandy Corp. distributes all of its after-tax earnings to Karen.

c. What is the amount of the overall tax on Sandy’s $116,000 of pre-benefit income if Sandy Corp. pays Karen’s adoption expenses of $10,000 and the payment is considered to be a taxable fringe benefit (ignore the net investment income tax and the additional Medicare tax)? Sandy Corp. distributes all of its after-tax earnings to Karen.
      

WeHaul Trucking is planning its truck purchases for the coming year. It allocated $600,000 for the purchase of additional trucks, of which three sizes are available. A large truck costs $150,000 and will return the equivalent of $15,000 per year to profit. A medium-sized truck costs $90,000 and will return the equivalent of $12,000 per year. A small truck costs $50,000 and will return the equivalent of $9,000 per year. WeHaul has maintenance capacity to service either four large trucks, five medium-sized trucks, or eight small trucks, or some equivalent combination. WeHaul believes that it will be able to hire a maximum of seven new drivers for these added trucks. The company cannot spend more than one/half of the total funds it actually spends to purchase medium-sized trucks. (Hint: this is not necessarily one half of the total funds it has allocated for the purchase of additional trucks).

a) Formulate a linear programming model to be used for determining how many of each size of truck to purchase if the company wants to maximize its profit. Ignore the time value of money. Provide the linear programming variables, the objective function, and the constraints for the problem.

b) At optimality, how much profit will result and what is the optimal combination of trucks?

c) Using your sensitivity analysis output, provide two sensitivity analysis interpretations. One must be for the objective function and one must be for one of the constraints

d) Now suppose that there is a requirement that WeHaul must purchase at least one of each size truck. Also, the number of larger trucks cannot be greater than the number of medium trucks. Write the constraint(s) for this requirement.  

2. An investment of $200,000 in a new machine will generate income of $40,000 per year for 4 years after which the machine is to be sold for an estimated $75,000. Pick the correct equation to determine the unknown rate of return

3. A machine has an initial cost of $25,000, annual operating cost of $4,500 and a salvage value of $5,000. The machine has a recovery period of 5 years. If Straight Line depreciation is used, what fraction of the initial $25,000 will be cumulatively depreciated by the end of year 3? Pick the choice closest to your answer

4. A machine has an initial cost of $25,000, annual operating cost of $4,500 and a salvage value of $5,000. The machine has a recovery period of 5 years. If Double Declining Balance depreciation is used, what is the Book Value at the end of year 2?

5. A machine has an initial cost of $25,000, annual operating cost of $4,500 and a salvage value of $5,000. The machine has a recovery period of 5 years. Using MACRS depreciation, what is the depreciation in year 3?

Minden Company introduced a new product last year for which it is trying to find an optimal selling price. Marketing studies suggest that the company can increase sales by 5,000 units for each $2 reduction in the selling price. The company’s present selling price is $98 per unit, and variable expenses are $68 per unit. Fixed expenses are $838,200 per year. The present annual sales volume (at the $98 selling price) is 25,500 units. Required: 1. What is the present yearly net operating income or loss? 2. What is the present break-even point in unit sales and in dollar sales? 3. Assuming that the marketing studies are correct, what is the maximum annual profit that the company can earn? At how many units and at what selling price per unit would the company generate this profit? 4. What would be the break-even point in unit sales and in dollar sales using the selling price you determined in (3) above (e.g., the selling price at the level of maximum profits)?

A 5-year project requires a $300,000 investment in a machine that is expected to worth $50,000 when the project ends. Operating expenses are expected to be $75,000 in the first year and are expected to increase 3% per year over the life of the project. The appropriate discount rate is 8%, the company’s tax rate is 20%, and the CCA rate is 30%. What is the after-tax present value of the annual operating expenses? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round the final answer to 2 decimal places. Omit any commas and the $ sign in your response. For example, an answer of $1,000.50 should be entered as 1000.50.)
