May 19, 2015 at 12:52 pm #247169Ok thanks loads, i got it now
May 19, 2015 at 12:07 pm #247158Ok thank you so much, I understood the first question but still confused in the last one.
Company has enough other profits to absorb capital allowances from this project, it means that if there is loss, in say yr 4 then we can carry forward or same yr whatever the policy of company is. if nothing written like above, then what will we do?May 16, 2015 at 11:28 am #246344Ok thanks, I got the part a, my mistake for N(d2) in part a, it wasn’t required,
but b asks to estimate the financial impact of the director’s decision to delay the production of game using BSOP Model
Part b as aforesaid And they used call option to value the delay of project
And I apologize I just noticed that drop down list contains a separate head of Ask the tutor p4., I’ll keep that in mind for next topic and i hope it’s okay to continue this thread hereMay 16, 2015 at 8:01 am #246290In part b of this question To find the option value to delay
D1 is 0.617 and D2 is 0.193
FOr N(d1)= 0.5+0.2291+0.7x(0.2324-0.2291)= 0.7314
N(d2)= 0.5+0.0753+0.3x(0.0793-0.0753)=0.5765
How did they calculate?May 8, 2015 at 9:07 am #244755Ok Thanks loads I got it now
May 7, 2015 at 10:01 pm #244720Ok thanks and for calculating the wacc of combined company, Ke of acquirer will be used in valuing the new shares in Wacc, is it correct?
May 7, 2015 at 8:30 pm #244698Hi tutor,
My question is
As For all shares after acquisition, share price of acquirer applies and is it same for cost of equity? while calculating wacc.
In BPP calculation they used 2 types of cost of equity, Ve of Paxis (acquirer) at its Ke and Ve of wragger at its pre acquisition Ke. Rather than using Ke of Paxis
Please explainApril 30, 2015 at 8:30 pm #243442Ok, thank you so much
April 27, 2015 at 12:27 pm #242925Ok thank you so much, gonna watch that lecture,
I calculated profits on option to claim back, gain on exercising option is $10153
I need to convert it into local pounds
From the rate ($/£) 1.9029-1.9081
I’m using selling rate 1.9081 as I’ll sell the dollar gain to get my local currency, as dollar is first currency so I’m using sell rate,
Plz correct if above mentioned is wrong
Thanx loads tutor for being helpfulApril 26, 2015 at 10:37 pm #242857And 2nd question is
While calculating currency option @ ex price 1.92, closing spot 1.9029
Claim back profits of option is 0.0171x19x31250= $10153/ 1.9081 1.9081 is selling rate as should be, while in book solutions they have used 1.9029 which is buying rate
Why?April 26, 2015 at 9:41 pm #242856In this question we can find out closing future rate as,
Spot future
1st jun 1.9156 1.898631st Oct 1.9029 1.8980
Basis risk 0.017 x 2/7 = 0.00486
1.9029-0.00486= 1.8980
But in the exam kit solutions, they added 0.00486 + 1.8986=1.9035
In all other questions I’ve been following that if there is increasing trends so add the monthly apportioned basis risk or vice versa , it’s very confusing
Plz guide me
ThanksApril 22, 2015 at 4:31 pm #242208Now 2nd question relates to adding interest saving from cancellation of debt, in Doric proposal 2 says to restructure, unsecured bonds are cancelled and replaced with ordinary shares, while calculating income position money saved from interest on debt due to the cancellation is not included as interest savings
while in Evertalk, in proposal of restructuring, bond are cancelled and ordinary shares are issued to existing bond holders, same situation as in Doric but
calculations of free cash flow of the company includes interest saving on existing bonds which are cancelled in restructuring
I want to ask why in 1 questions of restructuring they added interest saving and in the other they ignored,
ThanksApril 22, 2015 at 4:25 pm #242204I’m sorry I just checked it out, there are 2 questions named Doric in the book, one is pilot papers questions and the other which I’m talking abt is December 2010 question no 1 Doric
But I’m creating a new topic with same questions to avoid confusion for others in futureApril 22, 2015 at 1:51 pm #242190In Doric 3rd proposal is management buy-out, In the solution
Estimate of the value of new company:
cash flow before interest payment is 28.4m
Then it is written as:
Estimated value based of cashflow to perpetuity = 28.4/(0.11-0.05) = $473.3 m
While cost of capital is 11%, i want to ask why 5% is deducted from 11%Now 2nd question relates to adding interest saving from cancellation of debt, in Doric proposal 2 says to restructure, unsecured bonds are cancelled and replaced with ordinary shares, while calculating income position money saved from interest on debt due to its cancellation is not included as interest savings
while in Evertalk, in proposal of restructuring, bond are cancelled and ordinary shares are issued to existing bond holders, same situation as in Doric but
calculations of free cash flow of the company includes interest saving on existing bonds which are cancelled in restructuring
I want to ask why in 1 questions of restructuring they added interest saving and in the other they ignored,
ThanksApril 21, 2015 at 9:01 pm #242124Another question similar to Doric is evertalk from June 2003, in that question while doing restructuring, they have considered the interest saved upon cancellation of current bond, while in Doric there’s nothing like that, which approach is correct as there’s nothing written which says to include tax saving in cash flow, as cancellation actually have no impact on cash, both questions are almost same
April 21, 2015 at 4:26 pm #242093Hi tutor,
In the same question, part c of management buy-out, to get the value of part’s division of doric they calculated using 6% instead of 11%
28.4/ 6%
Kindly explain?Thanks
