- Inflation Adjustments The Rodriguez Company is considering an average-risk investment in a mineral water spring project that has a cost of $150,000. The project will produce 1,000 cases of mineral water per year indefinitely. The current sales price is $138 per case, and the current cost per case is $105. The firm is taxed at a rate of 34%. Both prices and costs are expected to rise at a rate of 6% per year. The firm uses only equity, and it has a cost of capital of 15%. Assume that cash flows consist only of after-tax profits, because the spring has an indefinite life and will not be depreciated. Should the firm accept the project? (Hint: The project is a growing perpetuity, so you must use the constant growth formula to find its NPV.) Suppose that total costs consisted of a fixed cost of $10,000 per year plus variable costs of $95 per unit, and only the variable costs were expected to increase with inflation. Would this make the project better or worse? Continue to assume that the sales price will rise with inflation.arrow_forwardPayne Products had $1.6 million in sales revenues in the most recent year and expects sales growth to be 25% this year. Payne would like to determine the effect of various current assets policies on its financial performance. Payne has $1 million of fixed assets and intends to keep its debt ratio at its historical level of 60%. Payne’s debt interest rate is currently 8%. You are to evaluate three different current asset policies: (1) a restricted policy in which current assets are 45% of projected sales, (2) a moderate policy with 50% of sales tied up in current assets, and (3) a relaxed policy requiring current assets of 60% of sales. Earnings before interest and taxes are expected to be 12% of sales. Payne’s tax rate is 40%. What is the expected return on equity under each current asset level? In this problem, we have assumed that the level of expected sales is independent of current asset policy. Is this a valid assumption? Why or why not? How would the overall risk of the firm vary under each policy?arrow_forwardDividend Payout The Wei Corporation expects next year’s net income to be $15 million. The firm is currently financed with 40% debt. Wei has $12 million of profitable investment opportunities, and it wishes to maintain its existing debt ratio. According to the residual distribution model (assuming all payments are in the form of dividends), how large should Wei’s dividend payout ratio be next year?arrow_forward
- Give typing answer with explanation and conclusion Suppose that Rose Industries is considering the acquisition of another firm in its industry for $100 million. The acquisition is expected to increase Rose's free cash flow by $5 million the first year, and this contribution is expected to grow at a rate of 3% every year there after. Rose currently maintains a debt to equity ratio of 1, its marginal tax rate is 40%, its cost of debt rD is 6%, and its cost of equity rE is 10%. Rose Industries will maintain a constant debt-equity ratio for the acquisition. Rose's unlevered cost of capital is closest to: 9.0% 8% 7.0% 7.5%arrow_forwardAn unlevered firm perceives its optimal dividend policy to be a 40 percent payout ratio. Asset turnover is sales/assets = 80%, the profit margin is 10 percent, and the firm has a target growth rate of 5%. a. Is the firm's target growth rate consistent with it other goals? b. If not, how much does it need to increase asset turnover to achieve it goals? c. How much would it need to increase the profit margin instead?arrow_forwardSuppose Alcatel-Lucent has an equity cost of capital of 10%, market capitalization of $10.8 billion, and an enterprise value of $14.4 billion.
