Corporate Finance
WACC = ((E/V) * Re) + [((D/V) * Rd)*(1-T)] So, r = 2.7% = 0.027
where E = Market value of the company's equity
D = Market value of the company's debt
V = Total Market Value of the company (E + D)
Re = Cost of Equity
Rd = Cost of Debt
T= Tax Rate
In this case, we have the following values for these parameters:
E/V = percentage of equity to finance the project = 60%
D/V = percentage of debt to finance the project = 40%
Re = Cost of Equity = required return by stockholders = 18.36%
Rd = Cost of Debt = required return by debt holders = 10.68%
T= Tax Rate = 36% = 0.36
As such,
WACC = ((0.6) * 0.1836) + [((0.4) * 0.1068)*(1-0.36)] = 0.027 = 2.7%
The firm's weighted average cost of capital is 2.7%.
b. The Net Present Value is calculate according to the formula below.
The initial investment (C0) is equal to the cost of the project, which is $45,000.
The cash flows C. are each equal to $13,000 for the next 20 years. So, T = 20. The formula now becomes
NPV = C x
(1 ? (1 + r)-T)
Initial Investment
NPV = $13,000 X (1-1.027-20) - $45,000 = -$35,851
The project should not be undertaken.
c.
, with the following explanations:
is the required rate of return on equity, or cost of levered equity is the company cost of equity capital with no leverage is the required rate of return on borrowings, or cost of debt.
is the debt-to-equity ratio.
is the tax rate
In this case, we have the following values:
D/E = 40/60=2/3
Rd = 10.68% = 0.1068
Re =…

Specialized Instructional Strategies for Teaching Reading The objective of this study is to examine two studies relating to development of literacy in preschoolers in view of the National Reading Project. Toward this end this study will examine the work of the National Early Literacy Panel (2008) and the work of Vossenkuhl (2010) both of which report studies involving literacy learning in preschool students. Study Reported By the National Early Literacy Panel
Test Development This research is a mixed methods study designed to explore the perceptions of self-identifying individuals with anxiety and depression regarding any relation between their conditions and their ability to access appropriate healthcare under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. Five respondents completed the questionnaire constructed explicitly for this research study. A review of the literature serves as a canvas of instruments also developed for assessing Axis 1
School Advisory Systems Some studies describe the attributes of programs that are run after school and assist in boosting social and academic growth of the youth in high school. Since the number of afterschool programs is limited, the importance of adopting the practices discussed in this paper will be significant and consequential. Following these practices will also help boost investment in after-school programs for youths in high school (Holstead, Hightower
Ethics comprises of an intricate set of principles, morals and institutional outlines that standardize scientific activity. Educational and social researchers face complex challenges occasionally, when they encounter the conflict of their legal and moral responsibility towards protection of their participants on one hand, and maintaining the standards, criteria of quality and significance of research on the other hand. Although, the research design or findings does not always restrained or deteriorated
Recognition of Delirium: Literature Review The objective of this study is to conduct a review of the literature on the assessment and recognition of delirium. The study, which follows reviews literature, related to the recognition of delirium in older patients by nurses and examines the variations of recognition of delirium by nurses as it relates to their own personal views of age and aging related symptoms. Devline et al. (2013) There are
progress and status of the drug trade and the War on Drugs and how they have developed into threats to California by creating more economic issues in the state. It also discusses how unstable immigration and border policies and an inappropriate approach strongly contribute to the spread and intensifying of the threats. The paper uses the intelligence liaison process as a methodology. This process consists of juxtaposing strong international
