Question
Chapter 12, Problem 1RQ
Summary Introduction
To discuss: The amount of increase of Company A’s debt to total asset ratio by issuing new bond.
Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
The common indicator of the use of borrowed funds and financial leverage of a firm is debt to total asset ratio.
In the year 2011, company A had $65 billion in borrowed funds relative to $270 billion in assets. This generates debt to total assets ratio of 24%. The additional borrowing of $3 billion in the year 2012 will increase the total borrowings to $68 billion.
It is to be noticed that company A did not paid any debt in the year 2011. Then the total asset will increase to $273 billion and the debt to total asset ratio of the firm will rise to 24.9% for an increase of marginally less than 1%.

- A critical discussion of the hockey stick model of start-up financing should be presented, supported by recent in-text citations. Provide a detailed explanation of the model. Describe each of the three stages of the hockey stick model of start-up financing, including a detailed characterisation of each stage. The characterisation of each stage should detail the growth, risk, and funding expectations. Present a critical evaluation and an insightful conclu sion.arrow_forwardQuestion Workspace Check My Work New-Project Analysis The president of your company, MorChuck Enterprises, has asked you to evaluate the proposed acquisition of a new chromatograph for the firm's R&D department. The equipment's basic price is $64,000, and it would cost another $18,000 to modify it for special use by your firm. The chromatograph, which falls into the MACRS 3-year class, would be sold after 3 years for $28,400. The MACRS rates for the first three years are 0.3333, 0.4445 and 0.1481. (Ignore the half-year convention for the straight-line method.) Use of the equipment would require an increase in net working capital (spare parts inventory) of $3,000. The machine would have no effect on revenues, but it is expected to save the firm $24,760 per year in before-tax operating costs, mainly labor. The firm's marginal federal-plus-state tax rate is 25%. Cash outflows and negative NPV value, if any, should be indicated by a minus sign.

It is inefficient compared to modern standards, though, and so the company is considering replacing it. The new milling machine, at a cost of $108,000 delivered and installed, would also last for 10 years and would produce after-tax cash flows (labor savings and depreciation tax savings) of $19,000 per year. It would have zero salvage value at the end of its life. The project cost of capital is 11%, and its marginal tax rate is 25%. Should Chen buy the new machine? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest cent. Negative value, if any, should be indicated by a minus sign.arrow_forward
