Your company keeps a constant debt-to-equity policy with a debt-to equity ratio of 2.4. The return on levered equity is 13.23%, the cost of debt is 6.50%, and the tax rate is 25%. The company has a perpetual after-tax unlevered cash flow of 450,000 EUR.

- Your company’s assets have an unlevered value of 25,456,890 USD and the perpetual annual unlevered cash produced is 1,750,000 USD. The Company decides to go through with a recapitalization, after which the debt-to-equity ratio (which the company decides to keep constant) is equal to 2.5. What is the value of debt if the interest rate is 2.45% and the tax rate is 36%?ICU Window, Inc., is trying to determine its cost of debt. The firm has a debt issue outstanding with 9 years to maturity that is quoted at 107 percent of face value. The issue makes semiannual payments and has an embedded cost of 6.6 percent annually. What is the company's pretax cost of debt? If the tax rate is 24 percent, what is the aftertax cost of debt? Pretax cost of debt: __________% Aftertax cost of debt: __________%Micolash Industries plans to reduce the use of debt financing and increase the use of equity financing (for example, move from a 70% Debt-to-Capital Ratio to 50%). Assume that the company, which does not pay any dividends, takes this action, and that total assets, operating income (EBIT), and its tax rate (say 40%) all remain constant. Which of the following would occur? Group of answer choices The company’s interest expense would remain constant. The company would have less common equity than before. The company’s taxable income (EBT) would fall. The company would have to pay more taxes. The company’s net income would decrease.
- Winter's Toyland has a debt-equity ratio of 1.00. The cost of debt is 10 percent and the required return on assets is 18 percent. What is the cost of equity if you ignore taxes? Write your answer as a percent rounded to two digits, but don't include the % sign (.e. write 12.63, not 0,1263) Numeric ResponseCompany Y has a target debt ratio of 55%. Currently its debt ratio is 60% and it expects to revert to the target ratio in the near future. The company has a market cost of equity of 20%. While it has no bonds, it has interest payments of R1 000 000 on liabilities of R10 000 000. Assume the tax rate is 28%. What is the WACC for the company? Ⓒa. 6.36% b. 9.00% c. 12.33% d. 12.96%Payne Products had $1.6 million in sales revenues in the most recent year and expects sales growth to be 25% this year. Payne would like to determine the effect of various current assets policies on its financial performance. Payne has $1 million of fixed assets and intends to keep its debt ratio at its historical level of 40%. Payne’s debt interest rate is currently 8%. You are to evaluate three different current asset policies: (1) a restricted policy in which current assets are 45% of projected sales, (2) a moderate policy with 50% of sales tied up in current assets, and (3) a relaxed policy requiring current assets of 60% of sales. Earnings before interest and taxes are expected to be 12% of sales. Payne’s tax rate is 25%. What is the expected return on equity under each current asset level? In this problem, we have assumed that the level of expected sales is independent of current asset policy. Is this a valid assumption? Why or why not? How would the overall risk of…
- A financial analyst at your firm notes that the firm's total interest payments this year were $10 million while total debt outstanding was $80 million, and he concludes that the cost of debt was 12.5%. What is wrong with this conclusion? Only long term debt should be used Only current liabilities should be used Excluded taxes will overestimate the cost of debt Excluding taxes will underestimate the cost of debt None of the above are correctAwkward Inc. currently has $2,145,000 in current assets and $858 in current liabilities. The company's managers want to increase the firm inventory, which will be financed by short-term note with the bank. What level of inventories can the firm carry without its current ratio falling below 2.0?Marpor Industries has no debt and expects to generate free cash flows of $16.82 million each year. Marpor believes that if it permanently increases its level of debt to $35.60 million, the risk of financial distress may cause it to lose some customers and receive less favourable terms from its suppliers. As a result, Marpor's expected free cash flows with debt will be only $15.32 million per year. Suppose Marpor's tax rate is 25%, the risk-free rate is 6%, the expected return of the market is 12%, and the beta of Marpor's free cash flows is 1.10 (with or without leverage). a. Estimate Marpor's value without leverage. b. Estimate Marpor's value with the new leverage.

You have been able to locate the following information on the firm: Total assets are $32.6 million, accounts receivable are $4.46 million, ACP is 25 days, net income is $4.83 million, and debt-to-equity is 1.3 times. All sales are on credit. Dakota's is considering loosening its credit policy such that ACP will increase to 30 days. The change is expected to increase credit sales by 6 percent. Any change in accounts receivable will be offset with a change in debt. No other balance sheet changes are expected. Dakota's profit margin will remain unchanged. How will this change in accounts receivable policy affect Dakota's net income, total asset turnover, equity multiplier, ROA, and ROE? Note: Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer in millions of dollars. Round your answers to 2 decimal places. Use 365 days a year. Net income Total asset turnover Equity multiplier ROA ROE million times times % %
