The company has the following capital structure of 100m and rates of three capital assets:
irredeemable bond value of 20m it a rate of 7%.
sare capital value of 50m with a rate of 18%.
Preference share value of 30m with a rate of 11%.
CApril 17, 2024 at 6:36 am #704202Welcome to the Opentuition forums. Given the above information, the following would apply.
20/100= 0.2 for irredeemable bond component.
0.2x 7% =1.4%
50/100=0.5 for share capital. 0.5x 18% =9%
30/100=0.3 for preference share capital 0.3x 11%=3.3%
1.4%+9%+3.3%=13.7%
13.7% is the Weighted average cost of capital in this question.
April 17, 2024 at 7:32 am #704205If a corporate tax rate is mentioned it will impact the above answer as it will reduce the cost of the irredeemable bonds.

An initial cost of project is 25,000 and it a constant net cash flows of 11,000 for four years. The residual value is 3,000 , and te cost of capital WACC ued to finance the project is 10%.
Determinate the NPV value of te project.Project Cash flow Disc. Factor PV
year 0 -25,000 1,000 -25,000
year 1 11,000 0.909 9,999
year 2 11,000 0.826 9,086
year 3 11,000 0.7519 8,270
year 4 11,000 0.683 7,513
NPV 9,868
that is what i think is , but what about the residual vallue of 3000?April 22, 2024 at 9:26 am #704402That’s also a positive cash flow. I would discount it at year 4 by 0.683 discount factor.
April 22, 2024 at 9:29 am #704403You might see more complicated versions of similar problems when taxation is introduced. Often it is said to be paid a year in arrears but its important to look at details given by the individual question.
April 22, 2024 at 2:38 pm #704411What about if i just add it to the NPV?
9,868 +3,000 =12,868April 22, 2024 at 4:27 pm #704416That won’t work since it is only being realised at the end of the project and so has to be discounted. So £14000 is relevant cash flow to be discounted in year 4.
April 22, 2024 at 6:36 pm #704426ok tanks
April 22, 2024 at 7:16 pm #704427You are welcome.
April 22, 2024 at 9:11 pm #704432just one more please:))
Actual quantit of production was 500 unit , Fixed costs 80,000 and Contribution margin 400. Calculate Margin of safety?
BEP – 200 unit * 400 = 80,000
500 unit -200 = 300 units Margin of SafetyIs that right?
April 23, 2024 at 10:57 am #704453It’s right in terms of units. I think it can also be expressed in percentage terms. In this case it would be 60%.
April 28, 2024 at 12:29 pm #704631thanks
April 28, 2024 at 12:59 pm #704632why 60 %
i think it is sales / contribution margin*100%
in that case 500/400″ 100% = 80%April 28, 2024 at 9:25 pm #704647It’s (budgeted sales – break even sales)/budgeted sales x 100= (500-200)/500 × 100 = 300/500 × 100 = 0.6 x100 = 60%
May 2, 2024 at 12:04 am #704793Thanks a lot
