During the past years, ABG had limited its investment plans due to high cost of capital. Recently, however, the cost of capital seems to have fallen, and the management of the company is seriously considering the implementation of two major investment plans. Assume that you are the assistant of the ABG's financial director, who has assigned you to calculate the company's cost of capital. Your financial manager has provided the following information:

1. The corporate tax rate is 20%.

2. The company has issued a total of 11,000 non-callable bond with 3% annual nominal interest rate, the coupon of which is paid to the bond holders every six months. These bonds expire after 5 years, have a par value of €1,000 and are currently being traded at €1,030.40.

3. The current price of ABG's preferred stock on the stock market is €3.4 and the company has issued a total of 834,000 shares. The preferences share has a par value of €1 and a 20% dividend yield upon the par value, distributed to the stockholders twice a year. In case of issuance of new preferred share capital, the issue and disposal costs will be €0.30 per share.

4. The current market price of ABG's common stock on the stock market is €3.7 and the company has issued 3,835,000 shares. ABG's most recent dividend (Do) was €0.22 per share and dividends are expected to grow at a steady 2% annual rate for the foreseeable future. The beta coefficient of ABG is 1.4, the long-term government bond offer investors a yield of 2%, and the Expected Return of the Market is estimated to be 6%.

To help you with your task, the Financial Manager of the company has asked you to answer the following questions:

a. What is the (pre-tax) cost of the ABG bond loan and what is the final, after tax, cost of the loan capital to be included in the estimation of ABG’s weighted average cost of capital?

b. What is the cost of the company's preferred share capital?

c. What is the cost of ABG's common equity capital using the Capital Asset Pricing (CAPM) model?

d. What is the cost of ABG's common equity capital, using the dividend discount model?

e. What is ABG's Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC)? (Assume that the cost of equity capital is the average value of the two methods of c and d)Explain whether the dividend policy of a company affects its value, by describing the various theories that have been put forward in the literature. Provide for each theory at least two references from published papers in scientific journals (approximately 1,000 words).

A Japanese pension plan has invested a portion of the entrusted money into a well diversified U.S. mutual fund that focuses on large capitalization stocks.  The managers' of the pension plan want to protect their investment into the fund.  They are concerned about two risks that could diminish the value of the plan's investment: 1) falling stock prices in the U.S. and 2) depreciation of the USD against the Japanese Yen.

Based on the following information and the example given in class, set up the hedge on February 3.  What is the net value in JPY of the pension plan's investment on May 27?  Note that the CME specifies for the S&P 500 futures 0.1 index points = USD 25,- and for the foreign exchange contract 12,500,000 Japanese yen per contract.  Was the hedge effective?

Answer in JAVA

Write a program that would prompt the user to enter an integer. The program then would displays a table of squares and cubes from 1 to the value entered by the user. The program should prompt the user to continue if they wish. Name your class NumberPowers.java, add header and sample output as block comments and uploaded it to this link.

Use these formulas for calculating squares and cubes are:

  • square = x * x
  • cube = x * x * x

Assume that the user will enter a valid integer.

The application should continue only if the user enters “y” or “Y” to continue.

West Corporation reported the following consolidated data for 20X2:
  Sales $ 801,000
  Consolidated income before taxes 138,000
Total assets 1,300,000

Data reported for West’s four operating divisions are as follows:

Division A Division B Division C Division D
  Sales to outsiders $ 270,000 $ 150,000 $ 330,000 $ 51,000

  Assets 491,000 115,000 510,000 85,000

Intersegment sales are priced at cost, and all goods have been subsequently sold to nonaffiliates. Some joint production costs are allocated to the divisions based on total sales. These joint costs were $45,000 in 20X2. The company’s corporate center had $30,000 of general corporate expenses and $130,000 of assets that the chief operating decision maker did not use in making the decision regarding the operating segments.
