Your beginning stockholders' equity is $295,600 and your beginning total liabilities are $119,300. Your non-debt liabilities such as accounts payable are forecasted to increase by $10,500.

Quigley Inc. is considering two financial plans for the coming year. Management expects sales to be $300,000, operating costs to be $265,000, assets (which is equal to its total invested capital) to be $200,000, and its tax rate to be 25%. Under Plan A it would finance the firm using 25% debt and 75% common equity. The interest rate on the debt would be 8.8%, but under a contract with existing bondholders the TIE ratio would have to be maintained at or above 3.6. Under Plan B, the maximum debt that met the TIE constraint would be employed. Assuming that sales, operating costs, assets, total invested capital, the interest rate, and the tax rate would all remain constant, by how much would the ROE change in response to the change in the capital structure? Do not round your intermediate calculations. a. 7.92% O b. 7.36 %1 O c. 8.00% O d. 7.84% O e. 7.76%

Rentz Corporation is investigating the optimal level of current assets for the coming year. Management expects sales to increase to approximately $2 million as a result of an asset expansion presently being undertaken. Fixed assets total $2 million, and the firm plans to maintain a 60% debt-to-assets ratio. Rentz's interest rate is currently 8% on both short-term and long-term debt (which the firm uses in its permanent structure). Three alternatives regarding the projected current assets level are under consideration: (1) a restricted policy where current assets would be only 45% of projected sales, (2) a moderate policy where current assets would be 50% of sales, and (3) a relaxed policy where current assets would be 60% of sales. Earnings before interest and taxes should be 10% of total sales, and the federal-plus-state tax rate is 40%. a. What is the expected return on equity under each current assets level?
