FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND CASH
FLOW
Basic
Balance Sheet
CA $ 5,700 CL $ 4,400
NFA 27,000 LTD 12,900
OE ??
TA $32,700 TL & OE $32,700
We know that total liabilities and owners’ equity (TL & OE) must equal total assets of $32,700. We
also know that TL & OE is equal to current liabilities plus long-term debt plus owners’ equity, so
owners’ equity is:
Income Statement
Sales $387,000
Costs 175,000
Depreciation 40,000
EBIT $172,000
Interest 21,000
EBT $151,000
Taxes 52,850
Net income $ 98,150
One equation for net income is:
Rearranging, we get:
3. To find the book value of current assets, we use: NWC = CA – CL. Rearranging to solve for current
assets, we get:
The market value of current assets and net fixed assets is given, so:
The average tax rate is the total tax paid divided by taxable income, so:
The marginal tax rate is the tax rate on the next $1 of earnings, so the marginal tax rate = 39%.
Income Statement
Sales $18,700
Costs 10,300
Depreciation 1,900
EBIT $6,500
Interest 1,250
Taxable income $5,250
Taxes 2,100
Net income $3,150
Shareholders’ equity
Preferred stock $ 4,000,000
Common stock ($1 par value) 25,000,000
Accumulated retained earnings 142,000,000
Capital surplus 93,000,000
Total equity $ 264,000,000
10. Cash flow from assets = Cash flow to creditors + Cash flow to stockholders
= $57,000 – 60,000
= –$3,000
Cash flow from assets = OCF – Change in NWC – Net capital spending
–$3,000 = OCF – (–$87,000) – 945,000
OCF = $855,000
11. a. The accounting statement of cash flows explains the change in cash during the year. The
accounting statement of cash flows will be:
Investing activities
Acquisition of fixed assets $(110)
Total cash flow from investing activities $(110)
Financing activities
Proceeds of long-term debt $5
Dividends (75)
Total cash flow from financing activities ($70)
c. To find the cash flow generated by the firm’s assets, we need the operating cash flow, and the
capital spending. So, calculating each of these, we find:
Note that we can calculate OCF in this manner since there are no taxes.
Capital spending
Ending fixed assets $390
Beginning fixed assets (370)
Depreciation 90
Capital spending $110
Now we can calculate the cash flow generated by the firm’s assets, which is:
12. With the information provided, the cash flows from the firm are the capital spending and the change
in net working capital, so:
13. a. The interest expense for the company is the amount of debt times the interest rate on the debt.
So, the income statement for the company is:
Income Statement
Sales $1,060,000
Cost of goods sold 525,000
Selling costs 215,000
Depreciation 130,000
EBIT $190,000
Interest 56,000
Taxable income $134,000
Taxes 46,900
Net income $ 87,100
c. Net income was negative because of the tax deductibility of depreciation and interest expense.
However, the actual cash flow from operations was positive because depreciation is a non-cash
expense and interest is a financing expense, not an operating expense.
19. A firm can still pay out dividends if net income is negative; it just has to be sure there is sufficient
cash flow to make the dividend payments.
Cash flow from assets = OCF – Change in NWC – Net capital spending
Cash flow from assets = $65,000 – 0 – 0 = $65,000
Cash flow to creditors = Cash flow from assets – Cash flow to stockholders
Cash flow to creditors = $65,000 – 34,000
Cash flow to creditors = $31,000
Cash flow to creditors is also:
So:
Income Statement
Sales $19,900
Cost of goods sold 14,200
Depreciation 2,700
EBIT $ 3,000
Interest 670
Taxable income $ 2,330
Taxes 932
Net income $1,398
The cash flow from assets can be positive or negative, since it represents whether the firm raised
funds or distributed funds on a net basis. In this problem, even though net income and OCF are
positive, the firm invested heavily in both fixed assets and net working capital; it had to raise a
net $12 in funds from its stockholders and creditors to make these investments.
The firm had positive earnings in an accounting sense (NI > 0) and had positive cash flow from
operations. The firm invested $650 in new net working capital and $4,130 in new fixed assets.
The firm had to raise $12 from its stakeholders to support this new investment. It accomplished
this by raising $1,332 in the form of new equity. After paying out $650 of this in the form of
dividends to shareholders and $670 in the form of interest to creditors, $12 was left to meet the
firm’s cash flow needs for investment.
Net capital spending = Net fixed assets 2012 – Net fixed assets 2011 + Depreciation
Net capital spending = $4,896 – 4,176 + 1,150
Net capital spending = $1,870
So, the company had a net capital spending cash flow of $1,870. We also know that net capital
spending is:
Cash flow from assets = OCF – Change in NWC – Net capital spending.
Cash flow from assets = $4,548 – 45 – 1,870
Cash flow from assets = $2,633
1. The price of a pure discount (zero coupon) bond is the present value of the par value. Remember, even
though there are no coupon payments, the periods are semiannual to stay consistent with coupon bond
payments. So, the price of the bond for each YTM is:
2. The price of any bond is the PV of the interest payment, plus the PV of the par value. Notice this
problem assumes a semiannual coupon. The price of the bond at each YTM will be:
3. Here we are finding the YTM of a semiannual coupon bond. The bond price equation is:
Since we cannot solve the equation directly for R, using a spreadsheet, a financial calculator, or trial
and error, we find:
R = 2.923%
Since the coupon payments are semiannual, this is the semiannual interest rate. The YTM is the APR
of the bond, so:
C = $41.96
Since this is the semiannual payment, the annual coupon payment is:
2 × $41.96 = $83.92
And the coupon rate is the annual coupon payment divided by par value, so:
5. The price of any bond is the PV of the interest payment, plus the PV of the par value. The fact that the
bond is denominated in euros is irrelevant. Notice this problem assumes an annual coupon. The price
of the bond will be:
6. Here we are finding the YTM of an annual coupon bond. The fact that the bond is denominated in yen
is irrelevant. The bond price equation is:
Since we cannot solve the equation directly for R, using a spreadsheet, a financial calculator, or trial
and error, we find:
R = 3.34%
Since the coupon payments are annual, this is the yield to maturity.
7. The approximate relationship between nominal interest rates (R), real interest rates (r), and inflation
(h) is:
R=r+h
(1 + R) = (1 + r)(1 + h)
8. The Fisher equation, which shows the exact relationship between nominal interest rates, real interest
rates, and inflation, is:
(1 + R) = (1 + r)(1 + h)
9. The Fisher equation, which shows the exact relationship between nominal interest rates, real interest
rates, and inflation, is:
(1 + R) = (1 + r)(1 + h)
10. The Fisher equation, which shows the exact relationship between nominal interest rates, real interest
rates, and inflation, is:
(1 + R) = (1 + r)(1 + h)
Intermediate
14. Here we are finding the YTM of semiannual coupon bonds for various maturity lengths. The bond
price equation is:
P = C(PVIFAR%,t) + $1,000(PVIFR%,t)
All else held equal, the premium over par value for a premium bond declines as maturity approaches,
and the discount from par value for a discount bond declines as maturity approaches. This is called
“pull to par.” In both cases, the largest percentage price changes occur at the shortest maturity lengths.
Also, notice that the price of each bond when no time is left to maturity is the par value, even though
the purchaser would receive the par value plus the coupon payment immediately. This is because we
calculate the clean price of the bond.
15. Any bond that sells at par has a YTM equal to the coupon rate. Both bonds sell at par, so the initial
YTM on both bonds is the coupon rate, 7 percent. If the YTM suddenly rises to 9 percent:
All else the same, the longer the maturity of a bond, the greater is its price sensitivity to changes in
interest rates. Notice also that for the same interest rate change, the gain from a decline in interest rates
is larger than the loss from the same magnitude change. For a plain vanilla bond, this is always true.
CHAPTER 9
STOCK VALUATION
Answers to Concept Questions
1. The value of any investment depends on the present value of its cash flows; i.e., what investors will
actually receive. The cash flows from a share of stock are the dividends.
2. Investors believe the company will eventually start paying dividends (or be sold to another
company).
3. In general, companies that need the cash will often forgo dividends since dividends are a cash
expense. Young, growing companies with profitable investment opportunities are one example;
another example is a company in financial distress. This question is examined in depth in a later
chapter.
4. The general method for valuing a share of stock is to find the present value of all expected future
dividends. The dividend growth model presented in the text is only valid (i) if dividends are expected
to occur forever; that is, the stock provides dividends in perpetuity, and (ii) if a constant growth rate
of dividends occurs forever. A violation of the first assumption might be a company that is expected
to cease operations and dissolve itself some finite number of years from now. The stock of such a
company would be valued by applying the general method of valuation explained in this chapter. A
violation of the second assumption might be a start-up firm that isn’t currently paying any dividends,
but is expected to eventually start making dividend payments some number of years from now. This
stock would also be valued by the general dividend valuation method explained in this chapter.
5. The common stock probably has a higher price because the dividend can grow, whereas it is fixed on
the preferred. However, the preferred is less risky because of the dividend and liquidation
preference, so it is possible the preferred could be worth more, depending on the circumstances.
6. The two components are the dividend yield and the capital gains yield. For most companies, the
capital gains yield is larger. This is easy to see for companies that pay no dividends. For companies
that do pay dividends, the dividend yields are rarely over five percent and are often much less.
7. Yes. If the dividend grows at a steady rate, so does the stock price. In other words, the dividend
growth rate and the capital gains yield are the same.
8. The three factors are: 1) The company’s future growth opportunities. 2) The company’s level of risk,
which determines the interest rate used to discount cash flows. 3) The accounting method used.
9. It wouldn’t seem to be. Investors who don’t like the voting features of a particular class of stock are
under no obligation to buy it.
10. Presumably, the current stock value reflects the risk, timing and magnitude of all future cash flows,
both short-term and long-term. If this is correct, then the statement is false.
Pt = Dt × (1 + g) / (R – g)
The dividend at year 4 is the dividend today times the FVIF for the growth rate in dividends and four
years, so:
We can do the same thing to find the dividend in Year 16, which gives us the price in Year 15, so:
There is another feature of the constant dividend growth model: The stock price grows at the dividend
growth rate. So, if we know the stock price today, we can find the future value for any time in the
future we want to calculate the stock price. In this problem, we want to know the stock price in three
years, and we have already calculated the stock price today. The stock price in three years will be:
2. We need to find the required return of the stock. Using the constant growth model, we can solve the
equation for R. Doing so, we find:
The capital gains yield, or percentage increase in the stock price, is the same as the dividend growth
rate, so:
4. Using the constant growth model, we find the price of the stock today is:
5. The required return of a stock is made up of two parts: The dividend yield and the capital gains yield.
So, the required return of this stock is:
R = Dividend yield + Capital gains yield = .043 + .064 = .1070, or 10.70%
6. We know the stock has a required return of 11.5 percent, and the dividend and capital gains yield are
equal, so:
Now we know both the dividend yield and capital gains yield. The dividend is simply the stock price
times the dividend yield, so:
D1 = .0575($72) = $4.14
This is the dividend next year. The question asks for the dividend this year. Using the relationship
between the dividend this year and the dividend next year:
D1 = D0(1 + g)
$4.14 = D0 (1 + .0575)
7. The price of any financial instrument is the PV of the future cash flows. The future dividends of this
stock are an annuity for 12 years, so the price of the stock is the PVA, which will be:
P0 = $9(PVIFA10%,12) = $61.32
8. The price of a share of preferred stock is the dividend divided by the required return. This is the same
equation as the constant growth model, with a dividend growth rate of zero percent. Remember that
most preferred stock pays a fixed dividend, so the growth rate is zero. Using this equation, we find the
price per share of the preferred stock is:
g = ROE × b
g = .16(.80)
g = .1280, or 12.80%
To find next year’s earnings, we simply multiply the current earnings times one plus the growth rate,
so:
10. Using the equation to calculate the price of a share of stock with the PE ratio:
P = 18($1.75)
P = $31.50
P = 21($1.75)
P = $36.75
Intermediate
11. This stock has a constant growth rate of dividends, but the required return changes twice. To find the
value of the stock today, we will begin by finding the price of the stock at Year 6, when both the
dividend growth rate and the required return are stable forever. The price of the stock in Year 6 will
be the dividend in Year 7, divided by the required return minus the growth rate in dividends. So:
Now we can find the price of the stock in Year 3. We need to find the price here since the required
return changes at that time. The price of the stock in Year 3 is the PV of the dividends in Years 4, 5,
and 6, plus the PV of the stock price in Year 6. The price of the stock in Year 3 is:
Finally, we can find the price of the stock today. The price today will be the PV of the dividends in
Years 1, 2, and 3, plus the PV of the stock in Year 3. The price of the stock today is:
12. Here we have a stock that pays no dividends for 9 years. Once the stock begins paying dividends, it
will have a constant growth rate of dividends. We can use the constant growth model at that point. It
is important to remember that the general form of the constant dividend growth formula is:
Pt = [Dt × (1 + g)] / (R – g)
This means that since we will use the dividend in Year 10, we will be finding the stock price in Year
9. The dividend growth model is similar to the PVA and the PV of a perpetuity: The equation gives
you the PV one period before the first payment. So, the price of the stock in Year 9 will be:
The price of the stock today is simply the PV of the stock price in the future. We simply discount the
future stock price at the required return. The price of the stock today will be:
13. The price of a stock is the PV of the future dividends. This stock is paying five dividends, so the price
of the stock is the PV of these dividends using the required return. The price of the stock is:
P0 = $15 / 1.12 + $18 / 1.122 + $21 / 1.123 + $24 / 1.124 + $27 / 1.125 = $73.26
16. Here we need to find the dividend next year for a stock experiencing differential growth. We know the
stock price, the dividend growth rates, and the required return, but not the dividend. First, we need to
realize that the dividend in Year 3 is the current dividend times the FVIF. The dividend in Year 3 will
be:
D3 = D0 (1.30)3
And the dividend in Year 4 will be the dividend in Year 3 times one plus the growth rate, or:
D4 = D0 (1.30)3 (1.18)
The stock begins constant growth after the 4th dividend is paid, so we can find the price of the stock in
Year 4 as the dividend in Year 5, divided by the required return minus the growth rate. The equation
for the price of the stock in Year 4 is:
P4 = D4 (1 + g) / (R – g)
Now we can substitute the previous dividend in Year 4 into this equation as follows:
When we solve this equation, we find that the stock price in Year 4 is 93.33 times as large as the
dividend today. Now we need to find the equation for the stock price today. The stock price today is
the PV of the dividends in Years 1, 2, 3, and 4, plus the PV of the Year 4 price. So:
We can factor out D0 in the equation, and combine the last two terms. Doing so, we get:
Reducing the equation even further by solving all of the terms in the braces, we get:
$65 = $67.34D0
This is the dividend today, so the projected dividend for the next year will be:
D1 = $.97(1.30) = $1.25
17. The constant growth model can be applied even if the dividends are declining by a constant percentage,
just make sure to recognize the negative growth. So, the price of the stock today will be:
P0 = $58.32 = D0 (1 + g) / (R – g)
The price of the stock today is the PV of the stock price in the future, so the price today will be:
21. To find the number of shares owned, we can divide the amount invested by the stock price. The share
price of any financial asset is the present value of the cash flows, so, to find the price of the stock we
need to find the cash flows. The cash flows are the two dividend payments plus the sale price. We also
need to find the aftertax dividends since the assumption is all dividends are taxed at the same rate for
all investors. The aftertax dividends are the dividends times one minus the tax rate, so:
We can now discount all cash flows from the stock at the required return. Doing so, we find the price
of the stock is:
The number of shares owned is the total investment divided by the stock price, which is:
26. a. We can find the price of all the outstanding company stock by using the dividends the same way
we would value an individual share. Since earnings are equal to dividends, and there is no growth,
the value of the company’s stock today is the present value of a perpetuity, so:
P=D/R
P = $950,000 / .12
P = $7,916,666.67
The price-earnings ratio is the stock price divided by the current earnings, so the price-earnings
ratio of each company with no growth is:
P/E = Price / Earnings
P/E = $7,916,666.67 / $950,000
P/E = 8.33 times
b. Since the earnings have increased, the price of the stock will increase. The new price of the
outstanding company stock is:
P=D/R
P = ($950,000 + 100,000) / .12
P = $8,750,000
The price-earnings ratio is the stock price divided by the current earnings, so the price-earnings
with the increased earnings is:
c. Since the earnings have increased, the price of the stock will increase. The new price of the
outstanding company stock is:
P=D/R
P = ($950,000 + 200,000) / .12
P = $9,583,333.33
The price-earnings ratio is the stock price divided by the current earnings, so the price-earnings
with the increased earnings is:
27. a. If the company does not make any new investments, the stock price will be the present value of
the constant perpetual dividends. In this case, all earnings are paid as dividends, so, applying the
perpetuity equation, we get:
P = Dividend / R
P = $9.40 / .12
P = $78.33
b. The investment is a one-time investment that creates an increase in EPS for two years. To
calculate the new stock price, we need the cash cow price plus the NPVGO. In this case, the
NPVGO is simply the present value of the investment plus the present value of the increases in
EPS. So, the NPVGO will be:
So, the price of the stock if the company undertakes the investment opportunity will be:
P = $78.33 + 2.62
P = $80.96
c. After the project is over, and the earnings increase no longer exists, the price of the stock will
revert back to $78.33, the value of the company as a cash cow.
31. We need to find the enterprise value of the company. We can calculate EBITDA as sales minus costs,
so:
The total value of equity is the enterprise value minus any outstanding debt and cash, so:
32. a. To value the stock today, we first need to calculate the cash flows for the next 6 years. The sales,
costs, and net investment all grow by same rate, namely 14 percent, 12 percent, 10 percent, 8
percent, respectively, for the following 4 years, then 6 percent indefinitely. So, the cash flows for
each year will be:
To find the terminal value of the company in Year 6, we can discount the Year 7 cash flows as a
growing perpetuity, which will be:
Dividing the company value by the shares outstanding to get the share price we get:
b. In this case, we are going to use the PE multiple to find the terminal value. All of the cash flows
from part a will remain the same. So, the terminal value in Year 6 is:
Under this assumption for the terminal value, the value of the company today is:
Dividing the company value by the shares outstanding to get the share price we get:
2. The dividend yield is the dividend divided by price at the beginning of the period, so:
And the capital gains yield is the increase in price divided by the initial price, so:
Here’s a question for you: Can the dividend yield ever be negative? No, that would mean you were
paying the company for the privilege of owning the stock. It has happened on bonds.
4. The total dollar return is the change in price plus the coupon payment, so:
Notice here that we could have simply used the total dollar return of $83 in the numerator of this
equation.
(1 + R) = (1 + r)(1 + h)
r = (1.0798 / 1.030) – 1
r = .0484, or 4.84%
5. The nominal return is the stated return, which is 11.80 percent. Using the Fisher equation, the real
return was:
(1 + R) = (1 + r)(1 + h)
r = (1.1180)/(1.031) – 1
r = .0844, or 8.44%
6. Using the Fisher equation, the real returns for government and corporate bonds were:
(1 + R) = (1 + r)(1 + h)
rG = 1.061/1.031 – 1
rG = .0291, or 2.91%
rC = 1.064/1.031 – 1
rC = .0320, or 3.20%
7. The average return is the sum of the returns, divided by the number of returns. The average return for each
stock was:
N
X 2 x i x 2 N 1
i 1
X2
1
5 1
.08 .062 2 .21 .062 2 .27 .062 2 .11 .062 2 .18 .062 2 .037170

1
5 1
.12 .098 2 .27 .098 2 .32 .098 2 .18 .098 2 .24 .098 2 .057920
The standard deviation is the square root of the variance, so the standard deviation of each stock is:
X = (.037170)1/2
X = .1928, or 19.28%
Y = (.057920)1/2
Y = .2407, or 24.07%
8. We will calculate the sum of the returns for each asset and the observed risk premium first. Doing so,
we get:
a. The average return for large company stocks over this period was:
b. Using the equation for variance, we find the variance for large company stocks over this period
was:
And the standard deviation for large company stocks over this period was:
Using the equation for variance, we find the variance for T-bills over this period was:
And the standard deviation for T-bills over this period was:
9. a. To find the average return, we sum all the returns and divide by the number of returns, so:
10. a. To calculate the average real return, we can use the average return of the asset and the average
inflation rate in the Fisher equation. Doing so, we find:
(1 + R) = (1 + r)(1 + h)
r = (1.1060/1.042) – 1
r = .0614, or 6.14%
b. The average risk premium is simply the average return of the asset, minus the average real risk-
free rate, so, the average risk premium for this asset would be:
RP R – R f
RP = .1060 – .0510
RP = .0550, or 5.50%
11. We can find the average real risk-free rate using the Fisher equation. The average real risk-free rate
was:
(1 + R) = (1 + r)(1 + h)
r f = (1.051/1.042) – 1
r f = .0086, or 0.86%
And to calculate the average real risk premium, we can subtract the average risk-free rate from the
average real return. So, the average real risk premium was:
rp r – r f = 6.14% – 0.86%
rp = 5.28%
12. Apply the five-year holding-period return formula to calculate the total return of the stock over the
five-year period, we find:
P1 = $1,000/1.04548
P1 = $120.90
There are no intermediate cash flows on a zero coupon bond, so the return is the capital gains, or:
1. The portfolio weight of an asset is total investment in that asset divided by the total portfolio value.
First, we will find the portfolio value, which is:
XA = 135($47)/$10,650 = .5958
XB = 105($41)/$10,650 = .4042
2. The expected return of a portfolio is the sum of the weight of each asset times the expected return of
each asset. The total value of the portfolio is:
3. The expected return of a portfolio is the sum of the weight of each asset times the expected return of
each asset. So, the expected return of the portfolio is:
4. Here we are given the expected return of the portfolio and the expected return of each asset in the
portfolio and are asked to find the weight of each asset. We can use the equation for the expected
return of a portfolio to solve this problem. Since the total weight of a portfolio must equal 1 (100%),
the weight of Stock Y must be one minus the weight of Stock X. Mathematically speaking, this means:
We can now solve this equation for the weight of Stock X as:
So, the dollar amount invested in Stock X is the weight of Stock X times the total portfolio value, or:
Investment in X = .7800($10,000) = $7,800
5. The expected return of an asset is the sum of the probability of each state occurring times the rate of
return if that state occurs. So, the expected return of each stock asset is:
To calculate the standard deviation, we first need to calculate the variance. To find the variance, we
find the squared deviations from the expected return. We then multiply each possible squared deviation
by its probability, and then add all of these up. The result is the variance. So, the variance and standard
deviation of each stock are:
6. The expected return of an asset is the sum of the probability of each return occurring times the
probability of that return occurring. So, the expected return of the stock is:
To calculate the standard deviation, we first need to calculate the variance. To find the variance, we
find the squared deviations from the expected return. We then multiply each possible squared deviation
by its probability, and then add all of these up. The result is the variance. So, the variance and standard
deviation are:
7. The expected return of a portfolio is the sum of the weight of each asset times the expected return of
each asset. So, the expected return of the portfolio is:
To find the expected return of the portfolio, we multiply the return in each state of the economy
by the probability of that state occurring, and then sum. Doing this, we find:
b. This portfolio does not have an equal weight in each asset. We still need to find the return of the
portfolio in each state of the economy. To do this, we will multiply the return of each asset by its
portfolio weight and then sum the products to get the portfolio return in each state of the economy.
Doing so, we get:
To find the variance, we find the squared deviations from the expected return. We then multiply
each possible squared deviation by its probability, and then add all of these up. The result is the
variance. So, the variance of the portfolio is:
9. a. This portfolio does not have an equal weight in each asset. We first need to find the return of the
portfolio in each state of the economy. To do this, we will multiply the return of each asset by its
portfolio weight and then sum the products to get the portfolio return in each state of the economy.
Doing so, we get:
16. a. Again, we have a special case where the portfolio is equally weighted, so we can sum the returns
of each asset and divide by the number of assets. The expected return of the portfolio is:
b. We need to find the portfolio weights that result in a portfolio with a of 0.50. We know the
of the risk-free asset is zero. We also know the weight of the risk-free asset is one minus the
weight of the stock since the portfolio weights must sum to one, or 100 percent. So:
c. We need to find the portfolio weights that result in a portfolio with an expected return of 10
percent. We also know the weight of the risk-free asset is one minus the weight of the stock since
the portfolio weights must sum to one, or 100 percent. So:
XS = 2.26/1.13 = 2
XRf = 1 – 2 = –1
The portfolio is invested 200% in the stock and –100% in the risk-free asset. This represents
borrowing at the risk-free rate to buy more of the stock.
19. We need to set the reward-to-risk ratios of the two assets equal to each other (see the previous
problem), which is:
Rf = .0786, or 7.86%
Intermediate
20. For a portfolio that is equally invested in large-company stocks and long-term bonds:
For a portfolio that is equally invested in small stocks and Treasury bills:
21. We know that the reward-to-risk ratios for all assets must be equal (See Question 19). This can be
expressed as:
The numerator of each equation is the risk premium of the asset, so:
RPA/ A = RPB/B
B/A = RPB/RPA
If the reward-to-risk ratios are the same, the ratio of the betas of the assets is equal to the ratio of the
risk premiums of the assets.
23. We know the total portfolio value and the investment of two stocks in the portfolio, so we can find the
weight of these two stocks. The weights of Stock A and Stock B are:
Since the portfolio is as risky as the market, the of the portfolio must be equal to one. We also know
the of the risk-free asset is zero. We can use the equation for the of a portfolio to find the weight
of the third stock. Doing so, we find:
XC = .30413793
We also know the total portfolio weight must be one, so the weight of the risk-free asset must be one
minus the asset weight we know, or:
1 = XA + XB + XC + XRf
1 = .18 + .29 + .30413793 + XRf
XRf = .22586207
A = (A,M)(A) / M
0.85 = (A,M)(0.31) / 0.20
A,M = 0.55
B = (B,M)(B) / M
1.40 = (.50)(B) / 0.20
B = 0.56
C = (C,M)(C) / M
C = (.35)(.65) / 0.20
C = 1.14
b. Using the CAPM to find the expected return of the stock, we find:
Firm A:
E(RA) = Rf + A[E(RM) – Rf]
E(RA) = 0.05 + 0.85(0.12 – 0.05)
E(RA) = .1095, or 10.95%
According to the CAPM, the expected return on Firm A’s stock should be 10.95 percent.
However, the expected return on Firm A’s stock given in the table is only 10 percent. Therefore,
Firm A’s stock is overpriced, and you should sell it.
Firm B:
E(RB) = Rf + B[E(RM) – Rf]
E(RB) = 0.05 + 1.4(0.12 – 0.05)
E(RB) = .1480, or 14.80%
According to the CAPM, the expected return on Firm B’s stock should be 14.80 percent.
However, the expected return on Firm B’s stock given in the table is 14 percent. Therefore, Firm
B’s stock is overpriced, and you should sell it.
Firm C:
E(RC) = Rf + C[E(RM) – Rf]
E(RC) = 0.05 + 1.14(0.12 – 0.05)
E(RC) = .1296, or 12.96%
According to the CAPM, the expected return on Firm C’s stock should be 12.96 percent.
However, the expected return on Firm C’s stock given in the table is 16 percent. Therefore, Firm
C’s stock is underpriced, and you should buy it.
CHAPTER 16
CAPITAL STRUCTURE: BASIC
CONCEPTS
1. a. A table outlining the income statement for the three possible states of the economy is shown
below. The EPS is the net income divided by the 5,000 shares outstanding. The last row shows
the percentage change in EPS the company will experience in a recession or an expansion
economy.
Interest 0 0 0
The interest payment each year under all three scenarios will be:
2. a. A table outlining the income statement with taxes for the three possible states of the economy is
shown below. The share price is $55, and there are 5,000 shares outstanding. The last row shows
the percentage change in EPS the company will experience in a recession or an expansion
economy.
Interest 0 0 0
b. A table outlining the income statement with taxes for the three possible states of the economy
and assuming the company undertakes the proposed capitalization is shown below. The interest
payment and shares repurchased are the same as in part b of Problem 1.
Notice that the percentage change in EPS is the same both with and without taxes.
3. a. Since the company has a market-to-book ratio of 1.0, the total equity of the firm is equal to the
market value of equity. Using the equation for ROE:
ROE = NI/$275,000
The ROE for each state of the economy under the current capital structure and no taxes is:
The second row shows the percentage change in ROE from the normal economy.
b. If the company undertakes the proposed recapitalization, the new equity value will be:
ROE = NI/$176,000
c. If there are corporate taxes and the company maintains its current capital structure, the ROE is:
If the company undertakes the proposed recapitalization, and there are corporate taxes, the ROE
for each state of the economy is:
Notice that the percentage change in ROE is the same as the percentage change in EPS. The
percentage change in ROE is also the same with or without taxes.
4. a. Under Plan I, the unlevered company, net income is the same as EBIT with no corporate tax. The
EPS under this capitalization will be:
NI = $750,000 – .10($2,800,000)
NI = $470,000
And the EPS will be:
b. Under Plan I, the net income is $1,500,000 and the EPS is:
NI = $1,500,000 – .10($2,800,000)
NI = $1,220,000
c. To find the breakeven EBIT for two different capital structures, we simply set the equations for
EPS equal to each other and solve for EBIT. The breakeven EBIT is:
5. We can find the price per share by dividing the amount of debt used to repurchase shares by the
number of shares repurchased. Doing so, we find the share price is:
And the value of the company under the levered plan is:
V = $35(185,000 shares) + $2,800,000 debt = $9,275,000
6. a. The income statement for each capitalization plan is:
I II All-equity
The all-equity plan has the highest EPS; Plan I has the lowest EPS.
b. The breakeven level of EBIT occurs when the capitalization plans result in the same EPS. The
EPS is calculated as:
This equation calculates the interest payment (RBB) and subtracts it from the EBIT, which results
in the net income. Dividing by the shares outstanding gives us the EPS. For the all-equity capital
structure, the interest paid is zero. To find the breakeven EBIT for two different capital structures,
we simply set the equations equal to each other and solve for EBIT. The breakeven EBIT between
the all-equity capital structure and Plan I is:
And the breakeven EBIT between the all-equity capital structure and Plan II is:
The break-even levels of EBIT are the same because of M&M Proposition I.
c. Setting the equations for EPS from Plan I and Plan II equal to each other and solving for EBIT,
we get:
This break-even level of EBIT is the same as in part b again because of M&M Proposition I.
d. The income statement for each capitalization plan with corporate income taxes is:
I II All-equity
The all-equity plan has the highest EPS; Plan I has the lowest EPS.
This is similar to the equation we used before, except that now we need to account for taxes.
Again, the interest expense term is zero in the all-equity capital structure. So, the breakeven EBIT
between the all-equity plan and Plan I is:
The breakeven EBIT between the all-equity plan and Plan II is:
The break-even levels of EBIT do not change because the addition of taxes reduces the income
of all three plans by the same percentage; therefore, they do not change relative to one another.
7. To find the value per share of the stock under each capitalization plan, we can calculate the price as
the value of shares repurchased divided by the number of shares repurchased. The dollar value of
the shares repurchased is the increase in the value of the debt used to repurchase shares, or:
P = $36,500/1,000 shares
And under Plan II, the number of shares repurchased from the all equity plan by the $29,200 in debt
are:
P = $29,200/800 shares
This shows that when there are no corporate taxes, the stockholder does not care about the capital
structure decision of the firm. This is M&M Proposition I without taxes.
b. To determine the cash flow to the shareholder, we need to determine the EPS of the firm under
the proposed capital structure. The market value of the firm is:
V = $58(6,000)
V = $348,000
Under the proposed capital structure, the firm will raise new debt in the amount of:
B = 0.35($348,000)
B = $121,800
This means the number of shares repurchased will be:
Under the new capital structure, the company will have to make an interest payment on the new
debt. The net income with the interest payment will be:
NI = $33,000 – .08($121,800)
NI = $23,256
This means the EPS under the new capital structure will be:
Since all earnings are paid as dividends, the shareholder will receive:
c. To replicate the proposed capital structure, the shareholder should sell 35 percent of their shares,
or 35 shares, and lend the proceeds at 8 percent. The shareholder will have an interest cash flow
of:
The shareholder will receive dividend payments on the remaining 65 shares, so the dividends
received will be:
The total cash flow for the shareholder under these assumptions will be:
d. The capital structure is irrelevant because shareholders can create their own leverage or unlever
the stock to create the payoff they desire, regardless of the capital structure the firm actually
chooses.
9. a. The rate of return earned will be the dividend yield. The company has debt, so it must make an
interest payment. The net income for the company is:
NI = $86,000 – .08($375,000)
NI = $56,000
The investor will receive dividends in proportion to the percentage of the company’s shares they
own. The total dividends received by the shareholder will be:
R = $4,480/$30,000
R = .1493, or 14.93%
b. To generate exactly the same cash flows in the other company, the shareholder needs to match
the capital structure of ABC. The shareholder should sell all shares in XYZ. This will net $30,000.
The shareholder should then borrow $30,000. This will create an interest cash flow of:
The investor should then use the proceeds of the stock sale and the loan to buy shares in ABC.
The investor will receive dividends in proportion to the percentage of the company’s share they
own. The total dividends received by the shareholder will be:
R = $4,480/$30,000
R = .1493, or 14.93%
RS = RA = $86,000/$750,000
RS = .1147, or 11.47%
To find the cost of equity for XYZ, we need to use M&M Proposition II, so:
When there are no corporate taxes, the cost of capital for the firm is unaffected by the capital
structure; this is M&M Proposition I without taxes.
b. To find the cost of equity for the company with leverage, we need to use M&M Proposition II
with taxes, so:
V = $185,000(1 – .35)/.16
V = $751,562.50
V = VU + tCB
V = $751,562.50 + .35($135,000)
V = $798,812.50
CHAPTER 19
DIVIDENDS AND OTHER PAYOUTS
1. The aftertax dividend is the pretax dividend times one minus the tax rate, so:
The stock price should drop by the aftertax dividend amount, or:
Since the par value of the new shares is $1, the capital surplus per share is $36. The total capital
surplus is therefore:
3. a. To find the new shares outstanding, we multiply the current shares outstanding times the ratio of
new shares to old shares, so:
The equity accounts are unchanged except that the par value of the stock is changed by the ratio
of new shares to old shares, so the new par value is:
b. To find the new shares outstanding, we multiply the current shares outstanding times the ratio of
new shares to old shares, so:
The equity accounts are unchanged except that the par value of the stock is changed by the ratio
of new shares to old shares, so the new par value is:
a. $64(3/5) = $38.40
b. $64(1/1.15) = $55.65
c. $64(1/1.425) = $44.91
d. $64(7/4) = $112.00
To find the new shares outstanding, we multiply the current shares outstanding times the ratio of new
shares to old shares, so:
a: 330,000(5/3) = 550,000
b: 330,000(1.15) = 379,500
c: 330,000(1.425) = 470,250
d: 330,000(4/7) = 188,571
5. The stock price is the total market value of equity divided by the shares outstanding, so:
Ignoring tax effects, the stock price will drop by the amount of the dividend, so:
6. Repurchasing the shares will reduce shareholders’ equity by $22,800. The shares repurchased will be
the total purchase amount divided by the stock price, so:
Shares bought = $22,800/$38.75 = 588
7. The stock price is the total market value of equity divided by the shares outstanding, so:
The new stock price is the market value of equity divided by the new shares outstanding, so:
8. With a stock dividend, the shares outstanding will increase by one plus the dividend amount, so:
The capital surplus is the capital paid in excess of par value, which is $1, so:
The new capital surplus will be the old capital surplus plus the additional capital surplus for the new
shares, so:
The new equity portion of the balance sheet will look like this:
The total dividends paid this year will be the dividend amount times the number of shares
outstanding. The company had 410,000 shares outstanding before the split. We must remember to
adjust the shares outstanding for the stock split, so:
The dividends increased by 10 percent, so the total dividends paid last year were:
And to find the dividends per share, we simply divide this amount by the shares outstanding last year.
Doing so, we get:
10. a. If the dividend is declared, the price of the stock will drop on the ex-dividend date by the value
of the dividend, $4. It will then trade for $106.
c. Mann’s outflows for investments are $4,500,000. These outflows occur immediately. One year
from now, the firm will realize $1,900,000 in net income and it will pay $880,000 in dividends,
but the need for financing is immediate. Mann must finance $4,500,000 through the sale of shares
worth $110. It must sell $4,500,000 / $110 = 40,909 shares.
d. The MM model is not realistic since it does not account for taxes, brokerage fees, uncertainty
over future cash flows, investors’ preferences, signaling effects, and agency costs.
