Assignment Overview
Before starting on this assignment, make sure to thoroughly review the required background materials. This assignment will require you to use the various discounted cash flow methods and dividend models to make computations. In addition to knowing the computational steps involved in stock and bond valuation, make sure you also understand the basic concepts.
Submit your answers as a Word document. Make sure to show your work for all quantitative questions, and make sure to fully explain your answers using references to the background readings for any conceptual questions. Questions 1 and 3 will require Excel, so submit an Excel file that shows your computational steps as a separate file in addition to your Word file. Question 4 is purely conceptual, no computations are necessary but make sure to apply and reference concepts from the required readings in your answers to each of the scenarios.
Case Assignment
1. Suppose you buy a bond that will pay $1000 in ten years along with an annual coupon payment of $50 and the interest rate is 4%. Answer the following questions:
A. What is the value of this bond?
B. Now suppose the bond has no coupon payments (it is a “zero coupon” bond) but still pays $1000 in ten years. What is the value of this bond?
C. What would happen to the value of the bond if the inflation rate unexpectedly goes up? What the bond value increase or decrease?
D. Now suppose the bond still pays an annual coupon of $50 but the interest rate drops to 2%. What is the new value of this bond?
2. The XYZ Corporation pays a dividend of $1 for each share and its required rate of return is 8%. Answer the following questions:
A. Assuming zero growth in dividends, what is the value of each share?
B. Now assume a 4% annual growth rate in the dividend paid. What is the value of each share?
C. Assume the growth rate is still 4%, but the required rate of return drops to 6%. What is the new value of each share?
3. Acme Medical Corp. is expecting the cash flows from 2018-2022 in the table below. After 2022 it is expecting growth in cash flow at an annual rate of 3%. The firm has determined that its weighted average cost of capital (discount rate) is 7%. Using the table below calculate the following:
A. What is the present value of Acme’s future cash flows using the discounted cash flow model?
B. If the firm has 200,000 common shares outstanding, zero preferred shares, and debt with a market value of $10,000,000 what would be the value of each share?
C. Now suppose the discount rate increases to 10%. How would your answers to a) and b) above change based on the new discount rate?

What is Customer Lifetime Value (CLV) Analysis
How to measure or calculate CLV
Why is CLV important to business?
How much is a customer costing his/her business?
Learning Objectives
These are the learning objectives for this lecture.
2
Customer Lifetime Value (CLV) analysis looks at how valuable a customer is to the company over the lifespan of a customer, as contrasted with the value of a single transaction.
Basically, the CLV analysis combines financial principles to sales or customer experience program.
Specifically, CLV should tell you how much should be a financially viable acquisition cost spent to convert a prospect into a customer.
1. What is CLV Analysis
3
Customer Lifetime Value (CLV) analysis helps not only by measuring the long term value of a customer, it can also suggest how we can increase the customer value (for example, by upselling to customers).
The key idea is that is costs much less to retain existing customers than having to replace customers who fled or acquiring new ones for growth.
A properly calculated CLV analysis should prevent a business from recruiting customers with lavish gifts, only to find out the value of business derived from them did not materialize—serving a financial blow to the company.
1. What is CLV Analysis, continued (1)

Data required for CLV calculation
Initial acquisition cost (cost of marketing, advertising, sales staff time/commission etc.)
Value a customer creates at each touchpoint
A reliable estimate of customer retention rate (percentage of customer staying each period, aka loyalty rate)
Integrate records to track the customer’s journey. For example, a customer might have migrated to an upgraded or downsized package over time.
Combine the data in annual or quarterly (monthly data is rare) intervals
2. How to measure or calculate CLV
5
Formula for CLV calculation
Simplest formula:
Customer revenue minus the cost of recruiting and serving the customer = CLV
CLV should be calculated for each interval (annual, quarterly, etc.)
The flow of profit should be discounted back to the present because money accruing in future does not have the same value as money coming in now.

6
A simple CLV calculation
Let’s assume the following:
Profit generated by the customer each year = $1,000
Number of years that they are a customer of the brand = 5 years
Cost to acquire the customer = $2,000
The customer lifetime value of this customer would be:
$1,000 (annual profit from the customer) X
5 (number of years that they are a customer) less
$2,000 (acquisition cost) = $3,000 = CLV.
That is, $1,000 X 5 – $2,0 ...

BA 620 Managerial Finance
Group Problem Set 2 (125 points)
This problem Set is based on materials covered in modules 5, 6, and 7. It is designed
for you to demonstrate your understanding and be able to apply basic capital budgeting
concepts, working capital management, dividend policy, and international financial
management.
Part 1: Capital Budgeting Analysis
Adams, Incorporated would like to add a new line of business to its existing retail
business. The new line of business will be the manufacturing and distribution of animal
feeds. This is a major capital project. Adams, Incorporated is aware you an in an MBA
program and would like you to help analysis the viability of this major business venture
based on the following information:
• The production line would be set up in an empty lot the company owns.
• The machinery’s invoice price would be approximately $200,000, another
$10,000 in shipping charges would be required, and it would cost an additional
$30,000 to install the equipment.
• The machinery has useful life of 4 years, and it is a MACRS 3-year asset.
• The machinery is expected to have a salvage value of $25,000 after 4 years of
use.
• This new line of business will generate incremental sales of 1,250 units per year
for 4 years at an incremental cost of $100 per unit in the first year, excluding
depreciation. Each unit can be sold for $200 in the first year. The sales price
and cost are expected to increase by 3% per year due to inflation.
• Net working capital would have to increase by an amount equal to 12% of sales
revenues. The firm’s tax rate is 40%, and its overall weighted average cost of
capital is 10%.
Required:
1. If the company spent $40,000 last year in the upkeep of the empty lot, should this
cost be included in the analysis? Why or why not?
2. Disregard the assumptions in part 1 above. What is the machinery’s depreciable
basis? What are the annual depreciation expenses?
3. Calculate the annual sales revenues and costs (other than depreciation).
4. Construct annual incremental operating cash flow statements.
5. Estimate the required net working capital for each year based on sales for the
following year. Working capital will be recovered at the end of year 4.
6. Calculate the after-tax salvage cash flow.
7. Calculate the net cash flows for each year. Based on these cash flows, what are
the project’s NPV, IRR, Profitability Index (PI), and payback?
8. Can you use the Payback method to decide whether this is a good project or
not? Why or why not?
9. Interpret what NPV, IRR, and Profitability Index (PI) mean. Based on your
interpretation, do these indicators suggest the new business line should be
undertaken?
Part 2: Working Capital Management

MBA 503 Final Project Guidelines and Rubric
Overview
There are two summative assessments for this course. For your first assessment, you will be objectively assessed by your completion of a series of
MyAccountingLab homework assignments throughout the course. These will measure your understanding of how to communicate the financial performance of
companies and how to prepare basic financial statements.
For your final project, you will complete a financial analysis of a particular company’s financial statements. You will assume the role of an analyst in a fictional
company that is looking to glean what it can from the methods and business decisions used at this company. In determining the overall financial health of the
company, you will demonstrate an understanding of both the financial calculations that go into financial statements as well as the meaning behind the numbers.
Basic accounting skills and knowledge are critical to effective management in today’s business environment. Future business leaders need an understanding of
the process and rules related to creating financial accounting statements and the meanings behind their individual components in order to make informed
business decisions. To demonstrate these skills, you will need to analyze this accounting information in terms of a company’s performance and financial health
within its industry. This will ultimately help develop your skills as a business leader who is better prepared to manage effectively and make informed
management decisions.
This final project addresses the following course outcomes:
Analyze the financial condition of companies by accurately interpreting basic financial information used for informing business decisions
Determine the importance of accounting regulations and reporting requirements in the preparation of financial reports
Conduct basic financial analysis that accurately utilizes horizontal, vertical, and ratio techniques to determine the overall financial health of companies
The project is divided into three milestones, which will be submitted at various points throughout the course to scaffold learning and ensure quality final
submissions. These milestones will be submitted in Modules Four, Six, and Eight. Your final submission, the financial analysis, will be submitted in Module Ten.

The flow of profit should be discounted back to the present because money accruing in future does not have the same value as money coming in now.
2. How to measure or calculate CLV,
continued (1)
6
A simple CLV calculation
Let’s assume the following:
Profit generated by the customer each year = $1,000
Number of years that they are a customer of the brand = 5 years
Cost to acquire the customer = $2,000
The customer lifetime value of this customer would be:
$1,000 (annual profit from the customer) X
5 (number of years that they are a customer) less
$2,000 (acquisition cost) = $3,000 = CLV.
That is, $1,000 X 5 – $2,0 ...

Group Problem Set 2 (125 points)
This problem Set is based on materials covered in modules 5, 6, and 7. It is designed
for you to demonstrate your understanding and be able to apply basic capital budgeting
concepts, working capital management, dividend policy, and international financial
management.
Part 1: Capital Budgeting Analysis
Adams, Incorporated would like to add a new line of business to its existing retail
business. The new line of business will be the manufacturing and distribution of animal
feeds. This is a major capital project. Adams, Incorporated is aware you an in an MBA
program and would like you to help analysis the viability of this major business venture
based on the following information:
• The production line would be set up in an empty lot the company owns.
• The machinery’s invoice price would be approximately $200,000, another
$10,000 in shipping charges would be required, and it would cost an additional
$30,000 to install the equipment.
• The machinery has useful life of 4 years, and it is a MACRS 3-year asset.
• The machinery is expected to have a salvage value of $25,000 after 4 years of
use.
• This new line of business will generate incremental sales of 1,250 units per year
for 4 years at an incremental cost of $100 per unit in the first year, excluding
depreciation. Each unit can be sold for $200 in the first year. The sales price
and cost are expected to increase by 3% per year due to inflation.
• Net working capital would have to increase by an amount equal to 12% of sales
revenues. The firm’s tax rate is 40%, and its overall weighted average cost of
capital is 10%.
Required:
1. If the company spent $40,000 last year in the upkeep of the empty lot, should this
cost be included in the analysis? Why or why not?
2. Disregard the assumptions in part 1 above. What is the machinery’s depreciable
basis? What are the annual depreciation expenses?
3. Calculate the annual sales revenues and costs (other than depreciation).
4. Construct annual incremental operating cash flow statements.
5. Estimate the required net working capital for each year based on sales for the
following year. Working capital will be recovered at the end of year 4.
6. Calculate the after-tax salvage cash flow.
7. Calculate the net cash flows for each year. Based on these cash flows, what are
the project’s NPV, IRR, Profitability Index (PI), and payback?
8. Can you use the Payback method to decide whether this is a good project or
not? Why or why not?
9. Interpret what NPV, IRR, and Profitability Index (PI) mean. Based on your
interpretation, do these indicators suggest the new business line should be
undertaken?
Part 2: Working Capital Management

MBA 503 Final Project Guidelines and Rubric
Overview
There are two summative assessments for this course. For your first assessment, you will be objectively assessed by your completion of a series of
MyAccountingLab homework assignments throughout the course. These will measure your understanding of how to communicate the financial performance of
companies and how to prepare basic financial statements.
For your final project, you will complete a financial analysis of a particular company’s financial statements. You will assume the role of an analyst in a fictional
company that is looking to glean what it can from the methods and business decisions used at this company. In determining the overall financial health of the
company, you will demonstrate an understanding of both the financial calculations that go into financial statements as well as the meaning behind the numbers.
Basic accounting skills and knowledge are critical to effective management in today’s business environment. Future business leaders need an understanding of
the process and rules related to creating financial accounting statements and the meanings behind their individual components in order to make informed
business decisions. To demonstrate these skills, you will need to analyze this accounting information in terms of a company’s performance and financial health
within its industry. This will ultimately help develop your skills as a business leader who is better prepared to manage effectively and make informed
management decisions.
This final project addresses the following course outcomes:
Analyze the financial condition of companies by accurately interpreting basic financial information used for informing business decisions
Determine the importance of accounting regulations and reporting requirements in the preparation of financial reports
Conduct basic financial analysis that accurately utilizes horizontal, vertical, and ratio techniques to determine the overall financial health of companies
The project is divided into three milestones, which will be submitted at various points throughout the course to scaffold learning and ensure quality final
submissions. These milestones will be submitted in Modules Four, Six, and Eight. Your final submission, the financial analysis, will be submitted in Module Ten.

Case 1: Family Loyalty vs. Meritocracy
A man was appointed president of the newly-acquired Philippine subsidiary of a large American company. He was reviewing the organization with the company's head of human resources. One thing the president noted was that the same names reoccurred frequently in several departments. "It is our tradition," commented the HR head. "Families take care of their own. If one family member gets a good job in a Philippine company, other members of the family apply to join that company and the first member there can help the whole family become successful by helping them get hired and by coaching them to be successful. The company benefits. Our costs of recruiting are lower, we know more about the people we hire, and the commitment to family success results in fewer performance and discipline problems because family members want to please their older relatives."
The president wondered how these practices would be regarded in a large American firm, and whether or not he should take action to change them.
1. Nepotism is not illegal, but is it ethical?
2. If the business is family-owned, does that make a difference?
3. How does national culture affect this discussion?
Case 2: Is the Two-Tier System Ethically Problematic
Employees at a cereal makers plant were “locked-out” from their jobs producing cereal for over 3 months. Company management and the union representing the employees reached a stalemate in negotiations resulting in the lockout. The union claims that the primary issue is the company’s demand of dramatically increasing the number of temporary workers, who would earn $6 less per hour and receive fewer benefits. Critics claim this effectively creates a two-tier system at the plant. Under the current agreement, the company may use temporary workers for up to 30% of the workforce, but the union claims the company is now pushing for 100%. The workers, who have had their health insurance suspended, fear that their jobs will either be replaced entirely by temporary workers, or they will be f ...
Barbara Corcoran Learns Her Heart’s True Desires In her.docxrock73
Barbara Corcoran Learns Her Heart’s True Desires
In her hilarious and lighthearted book, Shark Tales: How I Turned $1,000 Into a
Billion Dollar Business, Barbara Corcoran demonstrates the importance of knowing what
you really want out of life (Corcoran & Littlefield, 2011). As her title suggests, Barbara
founded her real estate company, The Corcoran Group, with only $1,000 and some big
dreams. Shortly after founding the company, Barbara took out a piece of paper and wrote
down some big goals for herself and the company. In 1978, she had only 14 sales agents
working for her, who earned a total of $250,000 in commissions. She set a goal of
doubling the number of agents and the commissions every year. So she put down 28 sales
people for 1979, 56 for 1980, and so on, all the way up to 1,792 salespeople in 1985 with
total commissions of $32,000,000. Barbara was amazed when she saw the fantastic sums
projected for 1985, and of course many people, when they see such amazing sums, would
dismiss the calculations as fantasy But as Barbara put it, she went to work the next day
hustling hard for her $32 million.
Real estate agents are paid largely by commission, which is about as close as you
can get to a pure form of contingent reward for performance. However, Barbara didn’t
rely solely on the commissions to motivate her workers. She threw theme parties and held
numerous social events to build a committed workforce. Good sales agents could always
move to another firm, but not every firm had Barbara’s positive attitude and fun-filled
atmosphere. In the early years of the firm, when money was tight, Barbara and her
relatives did the cooking for the outings and parties, and she found clever ways to
entertain people with skating parties and other lively activities. As the firm became larger
and more profitable, she even hired professional entertainers for the company’s midweek
picnics, which included elephant shows, daring rides on hot air balloons, horses, or
Harley Davidsons, etc. Barbara stated “I built my company on pure fun, and believe that
fun is the most underutilized motivational tool in business today. All of my best ideas
came when I was playing outside the office with the people I worked with” (Corcoran &
Littlefield, 2011, p. 283). What did she get in return for the fun atmosphere? She had the
“most profitable real estate company per person in the United States” (p. 284). By the
time she sold her agency in 2001, she had 1,000 agents working for her, and she had the
largest real estate agency in New York – clearly her motivational strategies attracted a
large number of productive employees.
Barbara Corcoran had sold her firm for $66 million. She thought that would make
her happy, but instead, it made her sad. Although she pretended to be happy with her new
wealth and freedom, she was “secretly miserable” (Corcoran & Littlefield, 2011, p. 232).
She had lost her purpose ...

Tracing Bapsi was no easy task but persevere we did and soon I was talking to Bapsi on the phone, hoping that the film rights to her book were still available. Two months later, thanks to David Hamilton's unwavering belief in the project, we owned the rights, had development funds, and I was sitting at my kitchen table, writing the screenplay of EARTH.
David and Anne Masson and I had worked together on FIRE and we re-assembled the team to begin the detailed planning of the production.
During this phase Bapsi became a friend and was exceedingly generous with information and old photographs. She would talk with me for hours about what it was like growing up in Lahore during those times. Lenny, after all, was based on Bapsi. In fact, Lenny was Bapsi.
The irony of our situation hasn't escaped Bapsi or myself. Bapsi is from Pakistan and now a US citizen. I'm from India and now living in Canada. If neither of us had moved from our respective homelands, the film just wouldn't have been possible. Pakistan and India, since the Partition of 1947, are sworn enemies. Not only have they fought three major wars against each other, but also, as I write this, both countries talk blithely about their nuclear capabilities and continue their militant aggression against each other across the still- disputed Kashmir border.
Fallen Women in the novel and film
Abducted women like Ayah and Hamdia, Lenny’s new nanny are viewed with suspicion from Lenny.
Page 226
“It isn’t a jail, Lenny baby…it’s a camp for fallen women.”
“What are fallen women?”
“Hai! The questions you ask! Your mother won’t like such talk…Now keep quiet”
“Are you a fallen woman?”
Fallen women – Abducted and raped women
In the aftermath of the 1947 declaration of Indian independence, the roughly drawn new state boundaries triggered what may have been the biggest migration in human history.
Historical consensus supports a figure of 12 million people displaced, although the BBC suggests figures as high as 14.5 million people. An undeclared civil war erupted as communities of Hindus, Muslims, and Sikhs fought one another to establish their own identities in their redefined homelands. And, in the process, the Indian government estimates, 83,000 women were abused and abducted. Others put the number even higher.
“Rather than being raped and abandoned,” Yasmin Khan writes in The Great Partition: The ...
Barriers of therapeutic relationshipThe therapeutic relations.docxrock73
Barriers of therapeutic relationship:
The therapeutic relationship between patient and nurse is often filled with barriers that can generate obstacles for the relationship and, in the end, the health system as a whole (Sfoggia et al.,2014). There are many factors that hinder building a therapeutic relationship: language, professional jargon, communication impairment, and cultural diversity (ibid).
Language:
Language can be an obstacle to nurse-patient communication because a patient may not be able to speak the same language and therefore communication is not possible (Levin,2006). The best way to overcome this barrier is providing a translator who can explain a professional facilitator's message easily to the patient(ibid). For instance, if the nurse only speaks English but the patient is only able to speak Arabic, a translation to the patient of what the professional facilitator is saying leads to less chance of misunderstanding (ibid). Translation also allows a patient to feel comfortable through being able to speak in their own language (ibid).
Medical jargon:
Jargon is a technical language that is comprehended by people in a specific industry or area of work (Leblanc et al.,2014). Health professionals often use jargon to communicate with each other(ibid). For example, T.B. disease stands for tubercle bacillus and HIV stands for human immunodeficiency virus (Mccrary & Christensen,1993). Jargon often makes sense to health professionals but a patient who does not understand these acronyms will not understand such communication, leading to a barrier in therapeutic relationship between patient and health professional (Leblanc et al.,2014).
Communication impairment:
Patients with communication impairment such as blindness, deafness and speech impairment often feel isolated, frustrated and self-conscious (O’Halloran et al.,2009). Some patients are born with such disabilities or have developed them as a result of disease (ibid). Therefore, nurses should provide enough time in order to describe any issue to such patients so that they do not feel uncomfortable or censured by health professionals, who must remain impartial (ibid).
Cultural diversity:
Patients often have various differences (Leblanc et al.,2014).Some of these differences are due to a patient's illness, social status, economic class, education and personality(ibid). However, according to Kirkham (1998), the deepest differences might be cultural diversity. Beheri (2009) points out that many nurses believe if they just treat patients with respect, they will avoid most cultural issues. Nevertheless, avoiding misunderstanding can be achieved through some knowledge of cultural customs, which might help and enable nurses to provide better health care to patients (ibid).
Facilitators of therapeutic relationship:
UNCRPD (2006) states that the most fundamental human right in hospital is communication. Patients are required to be provided with an effective communication method by nurs ...

Critical Analysis of the religious nature of Buddhism
The religious community often debates on whether Buddhism is categorized as a religion or as philosophical teaching. The answer to the question varies depending on an individual’s point of view. There are three main types of Buddhism practices across the world with each of them having smaller branches with slights variances in their teachings and beliefs. The different styles of Buddhist mainly encompass Theravada Buddhism, Vajrayana Buddhism, and Mahayana Buddhism. The various forms often have deities that are worshipped while others do not. Some often have scriptures while others do not usually believe in any physical form of the Buddhist teachings. The first article is authored by Rachel, a blogger, presenting the argument that Buddhism is a religion (Rachel, 1). On the other hand, the second article authored by Pamela Winfield recognizes Buddhism as a philosophy. Analyzing and comparing the two pieces having divergent views on the religious nature of Buddhism is crucial for understanding whether it is a religion or philosophy.
Summary of the articles
Rachel in her article considers Buddhism as a religion. The author acknowledges the fact that Mahayana Buddhism which is often found in greater part of Asia that includes Japan, Korea, and China often teaches on attaining enlightenment (Rachel, 1). The Mahayana often accept that every individual wishes to ensure the effective attainment of enlightenment and thus end the cycle of rebirth which others recognize as “Karma.” The article proceeds to state that Buddha is the greatest of the deities but is not worshipped. Instead, Buddha often inspires all those who practice doing as he once did. The author states that Buddhism often requires that the individuals that choose the wrong path attempt to re-accomplish these tasks in their next life alongside other punishments imposed on them by karma. The characteristics of this type of Buddhism thus often play a significant role in showing the religious nature of Buddhism. The author concludes by stating that Buddhism often contains all the different elements of a religion. Moreover, the article associates Buddhism with fallacies that characterize other religions and just as dangerous as other religions as well. A quote proves the claim on the dangerous nature of Buddhism that the author uses to summarize the teachings of Buddhism.
On the other hand, Winfield tends to focus on enlightening the readers on some of the aspects of Buddhism that ensures its a ...
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
The Indian economy is classified into different sectors to simplify the analysis and understanding of economic activities. For Class 10, it's essential to grasp the sectors of the Indian economy, understand their characteristics, and recognize their importance.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Assignment OverviewBefore starting on this assignment, make sure.docx
1. Assignment Overview
Before starting on this assignment, make sure to thoroughly
review the required background materials. This assignment will
require you to use the various discounted cash flow methods and
dividend models to make computations. In addition to knowing
the computational steps involved in stock and bond valuation,
make sure you also understand the basic concepts.
Submit your answers as a Word document. Make sure to show
your work for all quantitative questions, and make sure to fully
explain your answers using references to the background
readings for any conceptual questions. Questions 1 and 3 will
require Excel, so submit an Excel file that shows your
computational steps as a separate file in addition to your Word
file. Question 4 is purely conceptual, no computations are
necessary but make sure to apply and reference concepts from
the required readings in your answers to each of the scenarios.
Case Assignment
1. Suppose you buy a bond that will pay $1000 in ten years
along with an annual coupon payment of $50 and the interest
rate is 4%. Answer the following questions:
A. What is the value of this bond?
B. Now suppose the bond has no coupon payments (it is a “zero
coupon” bond) but still pays $1000 in ten years. What is the
value of this bond?
C. What would happen to the value of the bond if the inflation
rate unexpectedly goes up? What the bond value increase or
decrease?
D. Now suppose the bond still pays an annual coupon of $50 but
the interest rate drops to 2%. What is the new value of this
bond?
2. The XYZ Corporation pays a dividend of $1 for each share
and its required rate of return is 8%. Answer the following
questions:
A. Assuming zero growth in dividends, what is the value of
2. each share?
B. Now assume a 4% annual growth rate in the dividend paid.
What is the value of each share?
C. Assume the growth rate is still 4%, but the required rate of
return drops to 6%. What is the new value of each share?
3. Acme Medical Corp. is expecting the cash flows from 2018-
2022 in the table below. After 2022 it is expecting growth in
cash flow at an annual rate of 3%. The firm has determined that
its weighted average cost of capital (discount rate) is 7%. Using
the table below calculate the following:
A. What is the present value of Acme’s future cash flows using
the discounted cash flow model?
B. If the firm has 200,000 common shares outstanding, zero
preferred shares, and debt with a market value of $10,000,000
what would be the value of each share?
C. Now suppose the discount rate increases to 10%. How would
your answers to a) and b) above change based on the new
discount rate?

1. Suppose the Alpha Manufacturing Corporation is
experiencing extreme financial difficulties and is considering
bankruptcy. Its shareholders are currently almost equally
divided about whether or not the company should go bankrupt,
with one outspoken faction pushing for bankruptcy and the
other strongly opposing it. They have $50 million in debt all in
3. the form of bonds, and bondholders are pretty well united in
that they want the firm to declare bankruptcy.
A. The CEO announces that he is leaning against bankruptcy.
This means one faction of shareholders is happy, but another
faction of shareholders is very upset and the bondholders are
also unhappy. Can the unhappy faction of shareholders team up
with the bondholders to vote out the CEO? Explain your
reasoning using references from the background readings.
B. Suppose Alpha ends up declaring bankruptcy. They do not
have any cash in the bank but they own $60 million worth of
real estate. They only have one type of shareholder—common
shareholders. If they sell the real estate, how much of this will
bondholders get and how much with shareholders get? Explain
your reasoning using references from the background readings.
C. Now suppose that Alpha has two classes of shareholders—
common shareholders and preferred shareholders. Preferred
shareholders are owed $20 million in dividends that have been
unpaid in the last two years. If Alpha goes bankrupt and sells its
$60 million worth of real estate, how much will bondholders
get, how much will common shareholders get, and how much
will preferred shareholders get? Explain your reasoning using
references from the background readings.
