Sommer, Inc., is considering a project that will result in initial aftertax cash savings of $2.3 million at the end of the first

year, and these savings will grow at a rate of 2 percent per year indefinitely. The firm has a target debt-equity ratio of .60, a cost of equity of 10 percent, and an aftertax cost of debt of 4.6 percent. The cost-saving proposal is somewhat riskier than the usual project the firm undertakes; management uses the subjective approach and applies an adjustment factor of 3 percent to the cost of capital for such risky projects.
Required:
What is the maximum inital cost the company would be willing to pay for the project?

Answer:

the maximum initial cost is 25.62674095 million

Explanation:

The computation of the maximum initial cost of the company is shown below:

But before that the discount rate is

= 0.6 ÷ 1.6 × 4.6% + 1 ÷ 1.6 × 10% + 3%

= 10.9750%

Now Maximum initial cost is

=2.3 ÷ (10.975% - 2%)

= 25.62674095 million

Hence, the maximum initial cost is 25.62674095 million

Answer:

PV= $23,370.85

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Cash flow (1-3)= $5,000

Cash flow (4-5)= $6,500

Discount rate= 6%

To calculate the present value, first, we need to calculate the final value:

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= annual cash flow

Year 1-3:

FV= {5,000*[(1.06^3) - 1] / 0.06

FV= 15,918

Year 4-5:

FV= {6,500*[(1.06^2) - 1]} / 0.06

FV= 13,390

Now, the present value:

PV= FV/(1+i)^n

PV= 15,918/(1.06^3)= 13,365.06

PV= 13,390/(1.06^5)= 10,005.79

PV= $23,370.85

IceJOKER [234]

Just by looking at the answer you can take out D because C already offers no tax and 5% off, do C is better than D, so we only have to do t math for A, B, and CA is 800 plus tax, with $75 back800×1.05 (because it's 5% tax) -75 =$765B is 800×.90 (because 10% off means he's paying 90%)×.05=$756C is 800×.95 (because 5% off means he's paying 95%) =760A=765B=756C=760So B is the best deal
