    I keep seeing a differing answer to mine regarding the WACC, more specifically, the preference share cost (Kp).

    I remember in the exam thinking it was quite high. I know my WACC Calc’s wuite well, and know its the nominal% / MV. From memory it was higher than the Ke, which I thought was odd. Only seen a few people who had the same as me. What did everyone do who got different?

    Can’t remember the exact figures but I think it was like this 10% Preference Shares with normal value of $100 per share.

    Kp = d/Po
    Kp = (10% × 100) ÷ 100
    Kp = 10%

    Is Fixed cost relevant or not?? in NPV calculation

    I think it was relevant cause they were not the same for each year…ie.yr1 $200k, yr2 $230k, yr3 $300k & yr4 $250k

    if so maybe you can you tell please the way you calculated the first question concerning money market hedge
    Many thanks.

    Can’t remember numbers but 1st I think was asking money market hedge:

    Steps
    1. Borrow funds in currency which you need the money
    2.Translate-exchange the funds today
    3.Deposit the funds in the currency which you eventually want the funds until…I think that was 6 months

    6% Convertible loan $40m and directors pushing for 8% etc…

    Interest rate of 8%
    Yr 1 0.93
    Yr 2 0.86
    Yr 3 0.79

    Split the Equity component 1st:

    $40m X 6% X (0.93+0.86+0.79) =$ 6,192
    $40m X 0.79 =$31,600
    Total =$37,792
    Equity share component =$ 2,208 (goes on your Equity in S of FP)
    Total Convertible Loan =$40,000

    Now for interest and LTL loan:

    6% Loan $37,792
    add 8% interest(37,792 X 8%) $ 3,023 (deduct from your S of P&L)
    Total $40,815
    Pay (6% X 40,000) ($ 2,400)
    Total LTL Loan $38,415 (goes in your LTL in S of FP)

    Anyone struggling with this stuff just follow Mike Little’s lectures and revision on this website.
