Summary Introduction

Adequate information:

    YearCash Flows
    0$8,700
    1-$3,900
    2-$2,900
    3-$2,300
    4-$1,800

To compute: The internal rate of return (IRR) of the offer.

Introduction: Internal rate of return (IRR) is defined as the discount rate at which the aggregate present value of net cash inflows is equal to the aggregate present value of net cash outflows of the project.

    4-$1,800

Appropriate discount rate = 10%

To determine: Whether the offer should be accepted if the appropriate discount rate is 10%.

Introduction: Internal rate of return refers to the discount rate at which the net present value of the project is zero.

To compute:

  • The net present value (NPV) of the offer if the appropriate discount rate is 10%.
  • The net present value (NPV) of the offer if the appropriate discount rate is 20%.

Introduction: Net present value is defined as the summation of the present value of cash inflows in each period minus the summation of the present value of cash outflow.

    3-$2,300
    4-$1,800

To explain: Whether the decisions under the NPV rule are consistent with those of the IRR rule.

Introduction:

The Internal Rate of Return (IRR) is the discount rate that will equate the present value of the cash inflows to the present value of the cash outflows.

The Net Present Value (NPV) is the difference between the present value of cash inflows and the present value of cash outflows of a proposal.

Moose Enterprises finds it is necessary to determine its marginal cost of capital. Moose’s current capital structure calls for 50 percent debt, 30 percent preferred stock, and 20 percent common equity. Initially, common equity will be in the form of retained earnings (Ke) and then new common stock (Kn). The costs of the various sources of financing are as follows: debt, 9.6 percent; preferred stock, 9 percent; retained earnings, 10 percent; and new common stock, 11.2 percent. a. What is the initial weighted average cost of capital? (Include debt, preferred stock, and common equity in the form of retained earnings, Ke.) b. If the firm has $18 million in retained earnings, at what size capital structure will the firm run out of retained earnings? c. What will the marginal cost of capital be immediately after that point? (Equity will remain at 20 percent of the capital structure, but will all be in the form of new common stock, Kn.) d. The 9.6 percent cost of debt referred to earlier…

Assume it is considering the following financial plans:  Cost      (aftertax)  Weights Plan A   Debt ..................................  4.0% 30% Preferred stock ..................  8.0 15 Common equity .................  12.0 55 Plan B   Debt ..................................  4.5% 40% Preferred stock ..................  8.5 15 Common equity .................  13.0 45 Plan C   Debt ..................................  5.0% 45% Preferred stock ..................  18.7 15 Common equity .................  12.8 40 Plan D   Debt ..................................  12.0% 50% Preferred stock ..................  19.2 15 Common equity .................  14.5 35 a. Which of the four plans has the lowest weighted average cost of capital?  Use the Kd (cost of debt) = Y(1 - T), Kp (Cost of preferred stock) = Dp/Pp - F, Ke = D1/P0 + g formulas or I will not understand.
