ABC Industries is considering a 3-year project that will cost $200 today followed by free cash flows to firm of $100 in year 1, $80 in year 2, and $160 in year 3. ABC has $1000 of assets with a debt ratio of 40.00%. ABC's before-tax cost of debt is 7.00% and its cost of equity is 12.00%. Suppose ABC pays a fee of$6 to the investment bankers who help them to raise the $120 Debt capital. Assuming the tax rate is 35.00% and that the flotation cost can be amortized (i.e. deducted) for tax purposes over the 3 year life of the project. The NPV of the project using the APV method, taking into account the flotation costs, is closest to: $8.40 $11.34 $10.66 $7.72
Jamie Lee and Ross agree that by accomplishing their short goals, they can budget $5,000 a year towards their long-term investment goals. They are estimating that with the allocations recommended by their financial advisor, they will see an average of 7 percent on their investments. The triplets will begin college in 15 years and will need $100,000 for tuition.

Mateo and Klaus would like to buy a house and their dream starter home costs $650,000. Their goal is then to save $65,000 for a down payment and then would take out a mortgage loan for the rest. They plan to put their monthly saved amount in a conservative mutual fund that has a track record of a 4.25% rate of return, compounded quarterly. To be sure they don't go spending this money on other things, they are going to move it into their investment account at the beginning of each month. Their hope is to be able to buy this home in 7 years. What would their monthly savings amount have to be to reach this goal? What will be the total interest earned? Mateo and Klaus have now saved up their down payment to buy a home, but they still need to borrow to cover the rest. For the home they want this will require a mortgage of $585,000 to cover the remaining amount and they're not sure whether they could afford the monthly loan payments. The bank has offered them a mortgage interest…

Sandra has at most $100,000 to invest in stocks, bonds, and money market funds. She expects annual yields of 15%, 10%, and 8%, respectively, on these investments. If Sandra wants at least $25,000 to be invested in money market funds and requires that the amount invested in bonds be greater than or equal to the sum of her investments in stocks and money market funds, determine how much she should invest in each vehicle to maximize the return on her investments. stocks $ bonds $ money market funds $ What is the maximum return?$
Halifax Technologies primarily relies on 100% equity financing to fund projects. A good opportunity is available that will require $250,000 in capital. The Halifax owner can supply the money from personal investments that currently earn an average of 8.5% per year. The annual net cash flow from the project is estimated at $30,000 for the next 15 years. Alternatively, 60% of the required amount can be borrowed for 15 years at 9% per year. Using a before- tax analysis and setting the MARR equal to the WACC, determine which plan, if either, is better.
The Jeffersons have asked you what would be needed to fund the children’s future college costs. Assume each child will begin college at age 18 and graduate in four years. Assume current costs are $24,000 per year and are expected to increase by 5% per year and investments earn 7%. A. Assuming no existing assets are dedicated to college, what is the annual savings amount required to fund the children’s education? The Jeffersons’ goal is to have an amount at the beginning of the freshman year for each child that is sufficient to fund a serial payment covering the $24,000 of current costs of college adjusted for inflation for each of the four years of college. Please include your calculator keystroke inputs [PV, I/YR, N, FV, and PMT (if needed)] for each step of this calculation. Also include whether any PMTs are in the end mode or the begin mode. B. What would you say to the Jeffersons about their education funding situation? Write a script of a single paragraph as if you…
