Suppose a company borrows $1 million debt to invest in a project that generates uncertain future cash flow (revenue) of 0~$2 million (when debt is due). The debt has to be repaid (interest rate is zero) when the project's cash flow is realized. Assume 46% of the cash flow (revenue) is lost upon bankruptcy (i.e., when debtholders control the firm). Also, assume that renegotiations are allowed and the manager may be allowed to stay if debtholders find it better than firing. Instead of equal bargaining power, if borrower has full bargaining power (borrower gets 100% of renegotiation), at what company cash flow does strategic default start to occur? 1.46 million 1.0 million 1.97 million 1.85 million

LNP is a company with a liability of $110 million,which is due in 10 years. The company’s lone asset is $70 million held in cash. The only assumption is that term structure of interest rates remains flat at 5%. (a) Determine the present value of the company’s liability. (b) Without any calculations,briefly explain why holding all its assets in cash is problematic for LNP from an interest rate risk management perspective. Two bonds, A and B, are currently trading. Bond A is a 3-year coupon bond with a face value of $100, selling for $113.616; coupons are paid annually. Bond B is a perpetuity with an initial cash flow of $1 in one year’s time, with cash flows growing thereafter at 1% per year. (c) Caluclate Bond A’s coupon rate and the pricing of Bond B.
Company X has $10M of excess cash (i.e., cash that is not used in the company's operations) and operating assets that will generate risky (i.e., uncertain) future cash flows with a present value today of $25M. It has no other assets. The company has risky zero-coupon bonds outstanding with a face value of $20M, and no other debt. Who is likely to gain and who is likely to lose from the following maneuvers? a) Company X pays a cash dividend of $10M to its shareholders. b) Company X halts operations and sells all of its operating assets for $15M. It invests the proceeds from this sale along with its $10M of existing cash in Treasury Bills (i.e., risk free bonds).

Assume that $500 million of Power’s long-term debt is due and the board of directors are meeting to discuss a proposed plan of retiring the $500 million of long-term debt and replace it with additional common stock. It is estimated that the issuance of additional stock will increase the market capitalization by $500 million. What would be the effect of these plans on Power’s Altman Z-score and its perceived risk of bankruptcy had the plan been executed just before the end of 2018? Discuss, and provide calculations to support your analysis.
Slush Corporation has two bonds outstanding, each with a face value of $2.3 million. Bond A is secured on the company's head office building; bond B is unsecured. Slush has suffered a severe downturn in demand. Its head office building is worth $1.03 million, but its remaining assets are now worth only $2 million. If the company defaults, what payoff can the holders of bond B expect? Note: Enter your answer in dollars, not in millions. Round your answer to the nearest whole dollar amount. Payoff of bond B
Suppose that a firm has 5 bondholders each expecting to be paid today their principal of $1 million each. The firm is in default, as its going-concern value is only $3 million, falling short of the $5 million to be repaid. The firm could liquidate and sell all of its assets for a value of $1 million, so that each bondholder would recover $200,000 on their claim. The firm offers its bondholders a debt-for-equity swap, but four of out the five bondholders must participate and become equityholders for the swap to succeed. In the table below, calculate the "lower bound" payoff if only four bondholders participate and the "upper bound" payoff if all five bondholders participate. The correct answer is lower bound=$500,000 and upper bound=$600,000
Dark Creek Corporation's CEO is selecting between two mutually exclusive projects. The company is obligated to make a $3,700 payment to bondholders at the end of the year. To minimize agency cost, the firm's bondholders decide to use a bond covenant to stipulate that the bondholders can demand an additional payment if the company chooses to take on the high-volatility project. How much additional payment to bondholders would make stockholders indifferent between the two projects? Cash flows pertaining to the two projects are shown in the table below. Economy Probability Low-Volatility Project Payoff High-Volatility Project Payoff $2,900 $4,000 4,800 Bad 40 Good .60 6,300 O $1366.67 O $1166.67 O $1300.00 O $1233,33

In considering Modigliani & Miller’s (M&M) Propositions I and II in a world with no taxes and no bankruptcy risk, assume Firm A is an all-equity firm with a required return on its assets (Ra) of 10%. Firm B is a levered firm and can borrow in the debt market at 7% (Rd). If M&M’s proposition II holds, what is the cost of equity and the WACC if Firm B is levered to 50% debt: is this capital structure better for Firm B? Show your calculations.
