Photochronograph corporation (pc) manufactures time series photographic equipment. it is currently at its target debt-equity ratio of .45. it's considering building a new $55 million manufacturing facility. this new plant is expected to generate aftertax cash flows of $7.4 million in perpetuity. there are three financing options: a. a new issue of common stock: the required return on the company's new equity is 15 percent. b. a new issue of 20-year bonds: if the company issues these new bonds at an annual coupon rate of 7 percent, they will sell at par. c. increased use of accounts payable financing: because this financing is part of the company's ongoing daily business, the company assigns it a cost that is the same as the overall firm wacc. management has a target ratio of accounts payable to long-term debt of .15. (assume there is no difference between the pretax and aftertax accounts payable cost.)

NPV: $8,430,000

Explanation:

Initial Investment: -$55,000,000

After Tax cash flows: $7,400,000

Calculation of the Weighted Average Cost of Capital:

Cost of Equity (ke) : 15%

Pre Tax Cost of Debt (kd): 7%

65 or 26.99% [/tex]

Since the tax rate is not given, let us assume tax rate to be 30%

Tax rate : 30%

Post tax long term debt = 7%*(1-0.30)

Post tax long term debt (kd) = 4.90%

Debt/Equity: 0.45 or 45%

Long term Debt to Accounts Payable ratio : 0.15

Weight of Long term debt for the purpose of calculation of Weighted Average cost of capital:

Weighted Average Cost of Capital = Weight of Long term debt (Wd) * Post tax long term debt (kd)+ Weight of Equity (We)*Cost of equity (ke)

where, Wd = 26.9865%

We = 68.9655%

kd = 4.90%

ke = 15%

By input the variables, into the formula of WACC,

Using the WACC for the calculation of NPV:

NPV = Present Value of cash flows - Initial Investment.

Therefore NPV of the project is $8,430,000 assuming the tax rate to be 30%

(i know i'm late but the answer's "things about yourself" because you want to list things you're capable of, why you want to open up the business, the amount of money you're putting into it,etc.) i'm guessing you take online school small business, the answers to the quizzes are all over quizlet. just look up your question and type quizlet after it and it'll pop up.
