    I think we should use option 2 because we have not gained control, that is still an associate. Therefore we should realise gain at acquisition date.

    preference shares is not part of debt calculation,cost of preference is calculated as interest/market value of preference shares.
    Cost of Preference shares is another component of wacc,so treat it seperately

    market capitalisation is the market value of the company.
    This is calculated by using dividend valuation model,price earnings ratio…just study business valuation and u’ll know it
    Note: this is highly examinable because i have checked the exams for the last 5years and its been examined

    ok,tax is payable one in arreas,so tax will not be paid in first year and you cant discount the amount which is not there, tax for year one will be paid in the following year and therefore discounted in year2,so year2 tax will be paid in 3rd year and discount and so on..thats why it has reached the 5th year. I would have answered those other questions its just that am using a 2010 revkit

    the discount factor is suppose to be from year2-year5,so check if they subtracted the df of year1 from the 5year annuity factor to arrive at that figure

    vd is the value of debt
    T is tax
    Since debt is always tax deductable, and if tax percentage is,say 30%,then debt is definately going to be reduced by 30%,which is 100%-30% so in case of using vd(1-T), it will be vd(1-0.30),its just the same as multiplying debt by 70%.
    U can ask as many questions on this one if u still dont get it

    hey shelley,
    Well have tried to do the calculations as follows.
    Profit after tax is $6m
    Dividend payout ratio is 25%
    Current year’s dividend=$6m*25%=$1.5m
    Growth is 4%
    Using dividend valuation model
    Mv=Do(1+g)/ke-g
    Do is the current year’s dividend which is $1.5m
    G is 4%
    So mv=$1.5(1+04)/(0.10-0.04)=$26m
    So market value per share is $5.20

    Rights issue price will be $5.20*60%=$3.12

    Since funds raised from rights issue is $10m, then number of additional shares issued through rights issue is 3205128.
    Hope this will make sense

    hey aodaro,
    Well you dont need to make the marker to start wondering where you u got those figures from,instead calculate all of them to show him that you know what you are doing. The other reason for showing your workings is that you might make an arithmetic error in adding up totals,if the examiner can see how you were calculating,he can be able to give you you marks because you know what you are doing.have a good day
