Textbook Question
Chapter 10, Problem 1DQ
As a first step, we need to estimate what percentage of MMM’s capital comes from debt,
- a. Recall that the weights used in the WACC are based on the company’s target capital structure. If we assume that the company wants to maintain the same mix of capital that it currently has on its balance sheet, what weights should you use to estimate the WACC for MMM?
- b. Find MMM’s market capitalization, which is the market value of its common equity. Using the sum of its short-term debt and long-term debt from the balance sheet (we assume that the market value of its debt equals its book value) and its market capitalization, recalculate the firm’s debt and common equity weights to be used in the WACC equation. These weights are approximations of market-value weights. Be sure not to include accruals in the debt calculation.

It is now January 1. You plan to make a total of 5 deposits of $500 each, one every 6 months, with the first payment being made today. The bank pays a nominal interest rate of 14% but uses semiannual compounding. You plan to leave the money in the bank for 10 years. Round your answers to the nearest cent.
1. How much will be in your account after 10 years?
2. You must make a payment of $1,280.02 in 10 years. To get the money for this payment, you will make five equal deposits, beginning today and for the following 4 quarters, in a bank that pays a nominal interest rate of 14% with quarterly compounding. How large must each of the five payments be?
