Learning Goal 5

P4-17 Pro forma income statement: Scenario analysis Allen Products Inc. wants to do a scenario analysis for the coming year. The pessimistic prediction for sales is $900,000; the most likely amount of sales is $1,125,000; and the optimistic prediction is $1,280,000. Allen’s income statement for the most recent year follows.

Allen Products Inc. Income Statement for the Year Ended December 31, 2019

Sales revenue $937,500
Less: Cost of goods sold 421,875
Gross profits $515,625
Less: Operating expenses 234,375
Operating profits $281,250
Less: Interest expense 30,000
Net profits before taxes $251,250
Less: Taxes (rate = 25%) 62, 813
Net profits after taxes $188,437
  1. a. Use the percent-of-sales method, the income statement for December 31, 2019, and the sales revenue estimates to develop pessimistic, most likely, and optimistic pro forma income statements for the coming year.
  2. b. Explain how the percent-of-sales method could result in an overstatement of profits for the pessimistic case and an understatement of profits for the most likely and optimistic cases.
  3. c. Restate the pro forma income statements prepared in part a to incorporate the following assumptions about the 2019 costs:

  $250,000 of the cost of goods sold is fixed; the rest is variable.

  $180,000 of the operating expenses is fixed; the rest is variable.

  All the interest expense is fixed.

  1. d. Compare your findings in part c to your findings in part a. Do your observations confirm your explanation in part b?

An insurance company has liabilities of £7 million due in 10 years' time and £9 million due in 17 years' time. The assets of the company consist of two zero-coupon bonds, one paying £X million in 7 years' time and the other paying £Y million in 20 years' time. The current interest rate is 6% per annum effective. Find the nominal value of X (i.e. the amount, IN MILLIONS, that bond X pays in 7 year's time) such that the first two conditions for Redington's theory of immunisation are satisfied. Express your answer to THREE DECIMAL PLACES.
An individual is investing in a market where spot rates and forward rates apply. In this market, if at time t=0 he agrees to invest £5.3 for two years, he will receive £7.4 at time t=2 years. Alternatively, if at time t=0 he agrees to invest £5.3 at time t=1 for either one year or two years, he will receive £7.5 or £7.3 at times t=2 and t=3, respectively. Calculate the price per £5,000 nominal that the individual should pay for a fixed-interest bond bearing annual interest of 6.6% and is redeemable after 3 years at 110%. State your answer at 2 decimal places.
The one-year forward rates of interest, f+, are given by: . fo = 5.06%, f₁ = 6.38%, and f2 = 5.73%. Calculate, to 4 decimal places (in percentages), the three-year par yield.
