The Laundromat Corporation is considering opening another coin-operated laundry in a city. It has estimated that opening the laundry would involve an initial cost of $100,000 and would generate a net cash flow of $32,000 in each of the following five years, with no salvage value for the equipment and no recovery of operating expenses at the end of the five years. The corporation estimates that it would have to pay a rate of 12% on its bonds and that it would face a marginal income tax rate of 40%. The interest on government securities is 10%. During the current year, the corporation expects to pay a dividend of $20 on each share of its common stock, which sells for 10 times current earnings. Management and outside analysts expects the growth rate of earnings and dividends of the corporation to be 7% per year.

- Global Giant is a multinational corporation that transfers intermediate products between divisions. It has a manufacturing division (the seller) in a low-tax rate country and a marketing division (the buyer) in a high-tax rate country. If Global Giant wants to minimize its worldwide tax liability to the extent possible within the laws, we would expect Global Giant to: Question 7 options: a) establish the highest transfer price possible when the manufacturing unit sells to the marketing unit b) establish the lowest transfer price possible when the manufacturing unit sells to the marketing unit c) stop producing in the low-tax rate country d) stop selling (marketing) products in the high-tax rate countryarrow_forwardOn January 1, the total market value of the Tysseland Company was $60 million.

- 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 35%. 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 5.5. 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.arrow_forwardECONOMICS At the end of 2011 Home Depot's total capitalization amounted to $29,031 million.

Bowen owes his local bank $3 million. Last year Bowen sold $5 million worth of cotton. His variable operating costs were $4.5 million; accounting depreciation was $40,000, although the actual decline in value of Bowen's machinery was $60,000 last year. Bowen paid himself a salary of $50,000, which is not considered part of his variable operating costs. Interest on his bank loan was $400,000. If Bowen worked for another farmer or a local manufacturer, his annual income would be about $30,000. Bowen can invest any funds that would be derived if the farm were sold to earn 10 percent annualy. (ignore taxes.) a. Compute Bowen's accounting profits. b.
