Q14.
Without an abandonment option, a project is worth $15 million today. Suppose the value of the project is either $20 million one year from today (if product demand is high) or $10 million (if product demand is low). It is possible to sell off the project for $14 million if product demand is poor. Calculate the value of the abandonment option if the discount rate is 5 percent per year (in million, for illustration, if the answer is $21,553,100, then you should answer 21.5531)
Calculating Flotation Costs [LO4] Suppose your company needs $24 million to build a new assembly line. Your target debt-equity ratio is .75. The flotation cost for new equity is 7 percent, but the flotation cost for debt is only 3 percent. Your boss has decided to fund the project by borrowing money because the flotation costs are lower and the needed funds are relatively small.a. What do you think about the rationale behind borrowing the entire amount?b. What is your company’s weighted average flotation cost, assuming all equity is raised externally?
Present value (LO9-4)
4. You will receive $6,800 three years from now. The discount rate is 10 percent.
a. What is the value of your investment two years from now? Multiply $6,800 × (1/1.10) or divide by 1.10 (one year’s discount rate at 10 percent).
b. What is the value of your investment one year from now? Multiply your answer to part a by (1/1.10).
c. What is the value of your investment today? Multiply your answer to part b by (1/1.10).
d. Use the formula PV = FV x 1 / (1+i)^n to find the present value of $6,600 received three years from now at 10 percent interest.
