    Sir I have a question in part b (i) of this question,after the first directors proposal if assets are reduced by 30% so when calculating the equity beta of travel services why are we not taking 70% of $360million .. I mean if NCAs are reduced the equity might as well be apportioned?

    The market value of the equity is not dependent on the book value of assets – it depends on the expected future earnings and these are not affected by the value of the assets in the SOFP.

    I mean why are they not finding the pv of debt of 120million using the new cost of debt of 6.2% and then adding it to 70 million?

    Effectively that is what the answer is doing. However, since the coupon rate is 6.2%, then discounting at 6.2% will give a PV equal to the nominal value – try discounting and you will see that you get 120M.

    For the same reason. The debt is issued at 6.2% and discounting the repayments at 6.2% will give the 70M that is borrowed.
