Summary Introduction

To explain: The similarity between the problems of bond refunding and capital budgeting. 

Introduction:

Bond:

It is a long-term loan borrowed by the corporations, organizations, and the government for the

purpose of raising capital. It is issued at a fixed interest depending upon the reputation of the

corporations and also termed as fixed-income security.

Bond refunding:

It means paying off higher-cost debt bonds to the issuer of the bonds that have a lower net cost. This decreases the financial cost of any firm.

Capital budgeting:

It is the formal process used by a corporation to determine any potential expense or any significant investment. It is used by businesses for the determination of whether a proposed investment or fixed asset should be purchased or not.

Scenario one: Under what circumstances would it be appropriate for a firm to use different cost of capital for its different operating divisions? If the overall firm WACC was used as the hurdle rate for all divisions, would the riskier division or the more conservative divisions tend to get most of the investment projects? Why? If you were to try to estimate the appropriate cost of capital for different divisions, what problems might you encounter? What are two techniques you could use to develop a rough estimate for each division’s cost of capital?
Scenario three: If a portfolio has a positive investment in every asset, can the expected return on a portfolio be greater than that of every asset in the portfolio? Can it be less than that of every asset in the portfolio? If you answer yes to one of both of these questions, explain and give an example for your answer(s). Please Provide a Reference
