Dinklage Corp. has 4 million shares of common stock outstanding. The current share price is $76, and the book value per share is $5. The company also has two bond issues outstanding. The first bond issue has a face value of $90 million, a coupon rate of 5 percent, and sells for 94 percent of par. The second issue has a face value of $70 million, a coupon rate of 6 percent, and sells for 104 percent of par. The first issue matures in 20 years, the second in 3 years. Suppose the most recent dividend was $4.80 and the dividend growth rate is 8 percent. Assume that the overall cost of debt is the weighted average of that implied by the two outstanding debt issues. Both bonds make semiannual payments. The tax rate is 35 percent. What is the company’s WACC?

WACC = 10.88%

Step by Step Process:

Firstly, we need to calculate the market weights of both equity and debt

Total equity = 4,000,000 * 76 = 304,000,000

Bond 1 issue = 90,000,000 *0.94 = 84,600,000

Bond 2 issue = 70,000,000 * 1.04 = 72,800,000

Total debt = 84,600,000 + 72,800,000 = 157,400,000

Total assets = 157,400 + 304,000,000 = 461,400,000

Weight of equity = We = 304/461.4 = 0.6589

Weight of bond 1 = Wb1 = 84.6/461.4 = 0.1833

Weight of bond 2 = Wb2 = 1-0.6589 -0.1833 = 0.1578

Cost of equity = Re = D1/P0 + g = 4.80*1.08/76 + 0.08 = 0.1482 = 14.82%

Cost of bond 1 = rate(nper,pmt,pv,fv) where nper = 20* 2 = 40, pmt =5% of 1000 = 50 = 25(semi annual), pv = 940 and FV =1000

Cost of bond 1= Rb1 = rate(40,25,-940,1000) *2 = 5.4983%

Cost of bond 2 = rate(nper,pmt,pv,fv) where nper = 3* 2 = 6, pmt =6% of 1000 = 60 = 30(semi annual), pv = 1040 and FV =1000

Cost of bond 2 = Rb2 =rate(6,30,-1040,1000)*2 = 4.5583%

WACC = We* Re + Wb1* Rb1*(1-tax rate) + Wb2*Rb2 *(1-tax rate) { Since debt has tax advantage}

WACC = 0.6589*14.82% + 0.1833 * 5.4983% *(1-0.35) + 0.1578*4.5583%*(1-0.35)

WACC = 10.8875%

WACC = 10.88%

Areal estate agent is considering changing her cell phone plan. there are three plans to choose from, all of which involve a monthly service charge of $20. plan a has a cost of $.42 a minute for daytime calls and $.17 a minute for evening calls. plan b has a charge of $.52 a minute for daytime calls and $.15 a minute for evening calls. plan c has a flat rate of $80 with 275 minutes of calls allowed per month and a charge of $.38 per minute beyond that, day or evening. a. determine the total charge under each plan for this case: 150 minutes of day calls and 70 minutes of evening calls in a month. (do not round intermediate calculations. round your answer to 2 decimal places. omit the "$" sign in your response.)c. if the agent will use the service for daytime calls, over what range of call minutes will each plan be optimal? (round each answer to the nearest whole number. include the indifference point itself in each answer.)d. suppose that the agent expects both daytime and evening calls. at what point (i. e., percentage of total call minutes used for daytime calls) would she be indifferent between plans a and b?

Firms like papa john’s, domino’s, and pizza hut sell pizza and other products that are differentiated in nature. while numerous pizza chains exist in most locations, the differentiated nature of these firms’ products permits them to charge prices above marginal cost. given these observations, is the pizza industry most likely a monopoly, perfectly competitive, monopolistically competitive, or an oligopoly industry?
