Please do Question A on down.
| Given Information | |||||||
| P0 | $40.00 | ||||||
| Net Ppf | $10.00 | ||||||
| Dpf | $2.50 | ||||||
| D0 | $1.75 | ||||||
| g | 8% | ||||||
| B-T rd | 9% | ||||||
| Skye's beta | 1.25% | ||||||
| Market risk premium, RPM | 7.0% | ||||||
| Risk free rate, rRF | 5.0% | ||||||
| Target capital structure from debt | 45% | ||||||
| Target capital structure from preferred stock | 5% | ||||||
| Target capital structure from common stock | 50% | ||||||
| Tax rate | 30% | ||||||
| Flotation cost for common | 10% | ||||||
| A.) Calculate the cost the after-tax cost of debt, the cost of preferred stock (including flotation costs), and the cost of equity (ignoring flotation costs). | |||||||
| Cost of debt: | |||||||
| B-T rd | (1 T) = | A-T rd | |||||
| 9% | (1-30%) | = | 2.70% | ||||
| Cost of preferred stock (including flotation costs): | |||||||
| Dpf / | NetPpf = | rpf | |||||
| $2.50 | $10.00 | = | 0.25% | ||||
| Cost of common equity, CAPM: | |||||||
| rRF + | b RPM | = | rs | ||||
| 5.0% | 7%*1.25% | = | 0.02% | ||||
| B.) Assuming that RK Enterprises Inc will not issue any new equity and will continue to the following capital structure, what is the company's WACC? | |||||||
| wd | 45.0% | ||||||
| wpf | 5.0% | ||||||
| ws | 50.0% | ||||||
| 100.0% | |||||||
| wd A-T rd + | wpf rpf + | ws rs | = | WACC | |||
| 45.0%*2.70% | 5.0%*0.25% | 50%*0.02 | = | 1.23% | |||
| C.) Suppose RK Enterprises Inc., is evaluating three projects with the following information. | |||||||
| (1) Each project has a cost of $1 million. They will all be financed using the target mix of long-term debt, preferred | |||||||
| stock, and common equity. The cost of the common equity for each project should be based on the beta estimated for | |||||||
| the project. All equity will come from reinvested earnings. | |||||||
| (2) Equity invested in Project A would have a beta of 1.0. The project has an expected return of 10.0%. | |||||||
| (3) Equity invested in Project B would have a beta of 1.5. The project has an expected return of 12.0%. | |||||||
| (4) Equity invested in Project C would have a beta of 2.0. The project has an expected return of 13.0%. | |||||||
| ******* Analyze the companys situation and explain why each project should be accepted or rejected. | |||||||
| Beta | rs | rps | rd(1 T) | WACC | Expected return on project | ||
| Project A | 1.0 | 10.00% | 0.25% | 0.81% | 1.23% | ||
| Project B | 1.5 | 12.00% | 0.25% | 0.81% | 1.23% | ||
| Project C | 2.0 | 13.00% | 0.25% | 0.81% | 1.23% | ||
