投资学课后题及答案Chapter 1 The Investment Environment 1.What is a real asset?Real assets are used to produce goods and services. Real assets consist of land, labor, and buildings. These generate income to the economy and determine both the material wealth and productive capacity of the economy. Additionally, real assets appear on only one side of the balance sheet.2.What is a financial asset?Financial assets are claims on real assets and income from them. Financial assets consist of stocks and bonds. These contribute indirectly to the productive capacity of the economy. Additionally, financial assets appear on both sides of the balance sheet.3.What is consumption timing and why is it important? Consumption timing allows flexibility between earnings and spending. Therefore, when we are younger and we can consume more than we earn by borrowing money to by homes and automobiles. As we age, we can invest to so that we can retire someday and live off of our prior earnings. Financial assets4.What is allocation of risk and why is it important?Allocation of risk is creating assets with various degrees of risk. This enables firms to raise capital and also gives investors a choice of assets with various risk levels from which to choose5.What is separation of ownership and why is it important?The separation of ownership and management is important. Unlike a sole proprietorship where the owners are the managers, owners of corporations are stockholders. Stockholders elect the broad of directors that hires the management team. The objective that all owners can agree to is for management tomaximize the value of the firm (share price).6.What are the three sectors of the economy and what is theirprimary need?A. Firms are typically net borrowers as they seek to expand the firm and require resources to take on valuable projects.B. Households are typically net savers as they seek to use consumption timing to plan for longer-term financial requirements such as educating their children and investing for retirement. As such, they are interested in risk and after tax returns of investments.C. Governments are typically net borrowers but their needs depend on the current relationship between tax receipts and expenditures7.List and explain four important functions that financialintermediates perform.Financial intermediaries connect borrowers and lenders. Financial intermediaries are able to sell their own securities and invest in the liabilities of other firms. As such they can:A. pool resources to spread management costs over an larger base which reduces costs to an individual investor.B. diversify investments by being able to invest in more securities.C. develop expertise through the increased volume of business that they do.D. achieve economies of scale by being spread research costs over the pool.]8.What is securitization and why is it important?Securitization allows borrowers to enter capital markets directly. Loans are arranged into pass-through securities (such as mortgage pool) and investors can invest in securities backed bythose pools9.List and briefly explain five ways an investor can globallydiversityA primary market transaction is where securities are initially issued. Thus, the issuing firm receives the money and delivers the securities. The secondary market is where existing securities are traded. Thus, the firm that originally issued the securities receives no proceeds from the transaction. The individual selling the securities receives the money and delivers the securities while the individual buying the securities delivers the money 10.The four types of markets where trading takes place are listed below.A. Direct search markets. In direct search markets buyers and sellers must find each other. These markets are characterized by sporadic trading and low-priced non-standard goods such as refrigerator or sofas.B. Brokered markets. In markets that have active trading, brokers find it profitable to offer search services to buyers and seller. One example of this is real estate.C. Dealer market. In dealer markets, the dealers specialize by buying and selling for their own account. Dealers profit from the difference between their buying price and selling price (bid-ask spread). The OTC market is a dealer market.D. Auction market. In an auction market, such as the NYSE, all tradersconverge in one place to buy or sell an asset. Auction markets require heavy trading to make them efficient.11.The five ways for investors to globally diversify portfolio arelisted and discussed below.A.Investors can purchase American Depository Receipts (ADR=s) whichare a certificate that is denominated in dollars and represents a claim ona bundle of stock.B.Investors can purchase directly purchase foreign securities offered forsale in dollars.C.Investors can purchase international mutual funds that invest ininternational securities.D.Investors can purchase derivatives on foreign securities.E.Investors can purchase World Equity Benchmark Shares (WEBS) whichuse the same structure as an ADR but allow an investor to tradeportfolios of foreign stocks in a selected country.Chapter 2 Financial Instruments1.The price quotations of Treasury bonds in the Wall Street Journalshow an ask price of 101:12 and a bid price of 101:07.A. As a buyer of the bond what is the dollar price you expect to pay?B. As a seller of the bond what is the dollar price you expect to receive?A. You would pay the ask price of the dealer, 10112/32 or 101.375% of$10,000, or $10,137.50.B. You would receive the bid price of the dealer, 1017/32 or 101.21875% of$10,000, or $10,121.875.2.An investor is considering the purchase of either a municipal or acorporate bond that pay before tax rates of return of 6.92% and9.67%, respectively. If the investor is in the 25% marginal taxbracket, his or her after tax rates of return on the municipal and corporate bonds would be_________ and _________, respectively.Corporate bonds are taxable, therefore the after tax return would ber c=0.0967(1-0.25) =0.0725 or 7.25%. Since municipal bonds are free of federal tax the after tax return is equal to the before tax rate of return r m=0.0692(1-0) =6.92%.3. A 6.25% 25-year municipal bond is currently priced to yield8.7%. For a taxpayer in the 25% marginal tax bracket, this bondwould offer an equivalent taxable yield of __________.The equivalent taxable yield is the yield divided by the quantity one minus the tax rate or r m/ (1-t). Therefore, 0.087/0.75=11.6%.4.If three stocks comprise an index and the returns on the threestocks during a given period were 17%, -13%, and 6%, what would be the geometric return of the index?To compute a geometric average, add one to each of the returns and multiply each of the terms to find the geometric sum. To find the geometric average, the geometric sum is raised to 1/n and then one is subtracted. Therefore, the geometric mean is [(1.17) (0.87) (1.06)]1/3-1=2.566%.5.In order for you to be indifferent between the after tax returns ona corporate bond paying 8.15% and a tax-exempt municipalbond paying 6.32%, what would you tax bracket need to be? For you to be indifferent, the after tax returns would need to be equal. Since only the corporate bond is taxed, r c(1-t)= r m. Therefore,0.0632=0.0815(1-t), (1-t) =0.77546, and t=0.2245 or 22.45%.6. A $1,000 face value bond pays annual coupon payments of $65and is currently priced at $967. The current yield of the bond is __________.The current yield is annual interest divided by the current price ($65/$967) = 6.72%./doc/e714998860.html,pare the after tax return to a corporation that buys a share ofpreferred stock at the beginning of the year for $65, receives a dividend of $4.50 during the year, and sells the stock at the end of the year for $65. The corporation is in the 30% tax bracket.Answer the questions below based on the information given in the following table.Stock Price Number of shares outstandingStock A $35 2,000Stock B $82 4,500Stock C $21 1,600The total before tax income is the $4.50 dividend. Since the firm can exclude 70% of the dividend from tax, the firm must pay tax on 30% of the dividend, or ($4.50×0.30) =$1.35. Since the firm is in the 30% tax bracket the taxliability is $1.35×0.30=0.405. Therefore, the firm nets (aftertax)$4.50-0.41=4.09. Since the firm experienced no capital gain (or loss), the after tax return is $4.09/$65 = 0.06292 or 6.29%.8.The price-weighted index constructed with the three stocks is__________.A price weighted index is constructed by adding the prices of the securities and dividing by the number of securities in the index ($35 + $82 + $21)/3 = $46.9.The value-weighted index constructed with the three stocksusing a divisor of 1,000 is __________.A value-weighted index is computed by first computing the market value of each stock (price time the number of shares outstanding). Once each market value is computed, add the market values together and divide by the divisor. In this case it is [($35×2,000) + ($82×4,500) +($21×1,600)]/1,000 = 472.60.10.Assume that the return on stocks A, B, and C (above) during theyear were 18%, -6%, and 30%, respectively.A.The return of the price-weighted index would be__________.B.The return of the value-weighted index would be__________.C.The arithmetic return of the equally weighted index wouldbe__________.A. To compute the return of the price-weighted index you need to find the new prices of the stocks and then compute the average as follows:Stock A = [$35×(1.18)] = $41.30Stock A = [$82×(0.94)] = $77.08Stock A = [$21×(1.30)] = $27.30Average = (41.30 + 77.08 +27.30)/3 = $48.56.The change in the index value (return) is (48.56 - 46)/46 =5.565%.B. To compute the return of the value-weighted index you need to use the new prices to find the new value of the index. The return will be the change in the value of the index. In this case the new value is [($41.30×2,000) + ($77.08×4,500) + ($27.30×1,600)]/1,000 = 473.14. The old value is [($35×2,000) + ($82×4,500) + ($21×1,600)]/1,000 = 472.60. Therefore, the return is (473.14 – 472.60)/472.60 = 0.11%.C. The return of an equally weighted index is the sum of the return of eachsecurity in the index divided by the number of securities or [18% + (-6%) + 30%]/3 = 14%.Chapter 3 Security Markets1.Assume you purchased 400 shares of IBM common stock onmargin at $85 per share from your broker. If the initial margin is 60%, how much did you borrow from the broker?If you bought 400 shares@ $85/share, the cost is 400*$85=$34,000. Of this you invested $34,000*0.6=20,400 and borrowed$34,000*(1-0.6)=$13,600.2.You sold short 350 shares of common stock at $42 per share. Theinitial margin is 60%. Your initial investment was___________.If you sold short 350 share@ $42/share the proceeds are350*$42=$14,700. With a margin of 60% you must invest$14,700*0.6=$8,820.3.You purchased 1,000 shares of Cisco common stock on margin at$18 per share. Assume the initial margin is 50% and themaintenance margin is 30%. Below what stock price level would you get a margin call? Assume the stock pays no dividend; ignore interest on margin.If you purchased 1,000 shares@ $18/share the cost is$18*1,000=$18,000. Of this you must invest 50% and can borrow 50%.Therefore, the loan amount is $18,000*0.5=$9,000. Margin= [1,000P-$9,000]/1,000P.Therefore, 0.30 = (1,00P-$9,000)/1,000P; 300P=1,000P-$9,000;-700P=-$9,000; P=$12.864.You purchased 600 shares of common stock on margin at $27 pershare. Assume the initial margin is 50% and the stock pays nodividend. What would the maintenance margin be if a margin call is made at a stock price of $22? Ignore interest on margin.If you purchased 600 shares@ $27/share the cost is $27*600=$16,200.Therefore, you invest 50% and borrowed the other 50% of the amount.The loan amount is 16,200*0.5=%8,100.Margin = [600*$22-$8,100]/ 600*$22; Margin = 0.386 or 38.6%.5.You purchased 200 shares of common stock on margin at $35 pershare. Assume the initial margin is 50% and the stock pays no dividend. What would your rate of return be if you sell thestock at price of $45.50 per share? Ignore interest on margin.The initial investment is 200*$35*0.50=$3,500. The change in value of the stock is ($45.50-$35)*200 = $2,100. Therefore, the return =$2,000/$3,500 = 60%.6.Assume you sell short 100 shares of common stock at $30 pershare, with initial margin at 50% and the stock pays no dividend.What would your rate of return if you repurchase the stock at $37/share? The stock paid no dividends during the period, and you did not remove any money from the account before making the offsetting transaction.The profit on the stock is = ($30-$37)*100 = -$700. The initial investment is $100*0.30*0.5=1,500. Therefore, the return is -$700/$1,500 = -46.67%.7.You sold short 200 shares of common stock at $30 per share. Theinitial margin at 50%. At what stock price would you receive a margin call if the maintenance margin is 35%.The amount in your account is 200*$50*1.5 = $15,000 and you owe 200 shares of stock. Therefore your net equity is $15,000-200P.Margin = net equity/amount you owe or 0.35 = ($15,000 -200P)/200P.Rearranging, $70 = $15,000 –200P; 270P=$15,000; P = $55.55.8.Assume you sold short 100 shares of common stock at $25 pershare. The initial margin at 50%. What would be themaintenance margin if a margin call is made at a stock price of $30?The amount your account is $25*100*1.5 = $3,750 and you owe 100 shares of stock. Therefore your net equity is $3,750-100P.Margin = net equity/amount you owe or 0.35 = ($3,750-100*$30)/100*$30=25%..Rearranging, $70 = $15,000 –200P; 270P=$15,000; P = $55.55.9.You want to purchase AMAT stock at $42 from your broker usingas little of your own money as possible. If initial margin is 50% and you have $2,700 to invest, how many shares can you buy?The margin is 50% or = 0.5 = ($42Q - $2,700)/$42Q. Therefore, $21Q = $42Q - $2,700.Rearranging, -$21Q = -$2,700; Q = 128.54. Since you can only buy whole shares, you can buy 128 shares. Alternatively, you can buy[$2,700*2]/$42 = 128. 57 shares.10.You buy 150 shares of Citicorp for $25 per share and depositinitial margin of 50%. The next day Citicorp's price drop to $20 per share. What is your actual margin?The actual margin (AT) is AM = [150*$20-0.5*150*25]/[150*$20] =0.375 or 37.5%.Chapter 4 Mutual Funds and Other Investment Companies1. A mutual fund had NAV per share of $14.25 on January 1, 2003.On December 31 of the same year the fund's NAV was $14.87.Income distributions were $0.59 and the fund had capitalgain distributions of $1.36. Without considering taxes and transactions costs, what rate of return did an investor receive on the fund last year?The return is calculated by finding the change in value of the investment divided by the price. The change in value is the capital gain (whether realized or not) plus the sum of all distributions. Therefore,Return= ($14.87 -14.25 + 0.59 + 1.36)/ $14.25 = 18.04%.2. A mutual fund had NAV per share of $16.25 on January 1, 2003.On December 31 of the same year the fund's rate of return was14.2%. Income distributions were $1.02 and the fund had capitalgain distributions of $0.63. Without considering taxes and transactions costs, what ending NAV would you calculate?The return is equals the capital gain plus the all distributions divided by the investment. Therefore, 0.142 = (P - $16.25 + 1.02 + 0.63)/$16.25;P = $16.9075.3. A mutual fund had year-end assets of $316,000,000 andliabilities of $42,000,000. If the fund's NVA was $28.64, how many shares must have been held in the fund?The number of shares equals the assets minus the liabilities divided by the NAV. Therefore, ($316,000,000 - $42,000,000)/$28.64 =9,567,039.106 shares.4. A mutual fund had year-end assets of $750,000,000 andliabilities of $8,000,000. There were 40,750,000 shares in thefund at year end. What was the mutual fund's Net Asset Value?NAV equals assets minus liabilities divided by the number of shares.Therefore, ($750,000,000 – 8,000,000)/40,750,000 = $18.21.5. A mutual fund had average daily assets of $1.8 billion on 2003.The fund sold $625 million worth of stock and purchased $900 million worth of stock during the year. The fund's turnover ratio is ___________.Turnover is the value of securities sold divided by the average assets of the fund. Therefore, 625,000,000/1,800,000,000 = 34.7%.6.You purchased shares of a mutual fund at a price of $18 per shareat the beginning of the year and paid a front-end load of 5.75%.If the securities in which the fund invested increased in value by 12% during the year, and the fund's expense ratio was 0.75%, your return of you sold the fund at the end of the year would be _______.Since the fund has a front-end load, only (1-load) (or 0.9425) times NAV(18) is actually invested and growing. The money invested will grow at12% minus the 0.75% fees (or 11.25%). Therefore, [($18)(0.9425)(1.12-0.075) - $18]/$18 = 4.85% return.7.Apex fund has a NAV of 16.12 and a front load of 5.62%. What isthe offer price?The offer price equals NAV divided by one minus load. Therefore, $16.12 / (1 – 0.0562) = $17.08.8.Exponential growth fund has an offer price of 14.77 and a load of6%. What is the NAV?The offer price times on minus load equals NAV. Therefore, NAV equals $14.77 (0.94) = $13.889. A fund owns only three stocks with prices and quantities shownbelow. The fund has 50,000 shares outstanding. If the fund has $47,000 in liabilities, its NAV is________.Stock Price Number of shares outstandingStock A $35 2,000Stock B $82 4,500Stock C $21 1,600The value of assets is [($35?2,000) + ($82?4,500) + ($21?1.600)] = $472,600. Since NAV is asset minus liabilities divided by the number of shares outstanding, NAV = ($472,600 - $47,000)/50,000 = $8.5110.You have decided to invest $10,000 in the Pinnacle fund. Overthe long haul, the Pinnacle fund is expected to earn a return of10.25% on the portfolio (gross of fees). However, Pinnacle fundoffers several classes of funds. Therefore, you can choose to paya front load of 5% and escape 12-b1 fees or you can avoid theload fee by paying 12-b1 fees of 0.75%. If you investmenthorizon is 16 years, which should you choose?Since both strategies have a claim on the same portfolio ofsecurities, you need to compute you expected terminal wealth under each strategy.The terminal wealth in the no-load fund would be the initial investment ($10,000) times one plus the net rate of return (return minus 12-b1 fee) or 1.095 raised to the N number of years (16). Therefore, 10,00(1.095)16 = $42,719.48.The terminal wealth in the front-end load fund would be the initialinvestment in the portfolio ($10,000) (1-load) times on plus the rate of return or 1.1025 raised to the N number of years (16). Therefore,9,500(1.1025)16= $45,266.94.In this case, you would be better off with the load-end fund.———大猫。

公司财务,第十版,课后答案CHAPTER 2FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND CASH FLOWAnswers to Concepts Review and Critical Thinking Questions1.True. Every asset can be converted to cash at some price. However, when we are referring to a liquidasset, the added assumption that the asset can be quickly converted to cash at or near market value is important.2.The recognition and matching principles in financial accounting call for revenues, and the costsassociated with producing those revenues, to be “booked” when the revenue pro cess is essentially complete, not necessarily when the cash is collected or bills are paid. Note that this way is not necessarily correct; it’s the way accountants have chosen to do it.3.The bottom line number shows the change in the cash balance on the balance sheet. As such, it is nota useful number for analyzing a company.4. The major difference is the treatment of interest expense. The accounting statement of cash flowstreats interest as an operating cash flow, while the financial cash flows treat interest as a financing cash flow. The logic of the accounting statement of cash flows is that since interest appears on the income statement, which shows the operations for the period, it is an operating cash flow. In reality, interest is a financing e xpense, which results from the company’s choice of debt and equity. We will have more to say about this in a later chapter. When comparing the two cash flow statements, the financial statement of cash flows is a more appropriate measureof the company’s pe rformance because of its treatment of interest.5.Market values can never be negative. Imagine a share of stock selling for –$20. This would meanthat if you placed an order for 100 shares, you would get the stock along with a check for $2,000.How many shares do you want to buy? More generally, because of corporate and individual bankruptcy laws, net worth for a person or a corporation cannot be negative, implying that liabilities cannot exceed assets in market value.6.For a successful company that is rapidly expanding, for example, capital outlays will be large,possibly leading to negative cash flow from assets. In general, what matters is whether the money is spent wisely, not whether cash flow from assets is positive or negative.7.It’s probably not a good sign for an established company to have negative cash flow from operations,but it would be fairly ordinary for a start-up, so it depends.8.For example, if a company were to become more efficient in inventory management, the amount ofinventory needed would decline. The same might be true if the company becomes better at collecting its receivables. In general, anything that leads to a decline in ending NWC relative to beginning would have this effect. Negative net capital spending would mean more long-lived assets were liquidated than purchased.9.If a company raises more money from selling stock than it pays in dividends in a particular period,its cash flow to stockholders will be negative. If a company borrows more than it pays in interest and principal, its cash flowto creditors will be negative.10.The adjustments discussed were purely accounting changes; they had no cash flow or market valueconsequences unless the new accounting information caused stockholders to revalue the derivatives. Solutions to Questions and ProblemsNOTE: All end-of-chapter problems were solved using a spreadsheet. Many problems require multiple steps. Due to space and readability constraints, when these intermediate steps are included in this solutions manual, rounding may appear to have occurred. However, the final answer for each problem is found without rounding during any step in the problem.Basic1.To find owners’ equity, we must construct a balance sheet as follows:Balance SheetCA $ 5,700 CL $ 4,400NFA 27,000 LTD 12,900OE ??TA $32,700 TL & OE $32,700We know that total liabilities and owners’ equity (TL & OE) must equal total assets of $32,700. We also know that TL & OE is equal to current liabilities plus long-term debt plus owner’s equity, so owner’s equity is:O E = $32,700 –12,900 – 4,400 = $15,400N WC = CA – CL = $5,700 – 4,400 = $1,3002. The income statement for the company is:Income StatementSales $387,000Costs 175,000Depreciation 40,000EBIT $172,000Interest 21,000EBT $151,000Taxes 52,850Net income $ 98,150One equation for net income is:Net income = Dividends + Addition to retained earningsRearranging, we get:Addition to retained earnings = Net income – DividendsAddition to retained earnings = $98,150 – 30,000Addition to retained earnings = $68,1503.To find the book value of current assets, we use: NWC = CA – CL. Rearranging to solve for currentassets, we get:CA = NWC + CL = $800,000 + 2,400,000 = $3,200,000The market value of current assets and net fixed assets is given, so:Book value CA = $3,200,000 Market value CA = $2,600,000 Book value NFA = $5,200,000 Market value NFA = $6,500,000 Book value assets = $8,400,000 Market value assets = $9,100,0004.Taxes = 0.15($50,000) + 0.25($25,000) + 0.34($25,000) + 0.39($273,000 – 100,000)Taxes = $89,720The average tax rate is the total tax paid divided by net income, so:Average tax rate = $89,720 / $273,000Average tax rate = 32.86%The marginal tax rate is the tax rate on the next $1 ofearnings, so the marginal tax rate = 39%.5.To calculate OCF, we first need the income statement:Income StatementSales $18,700Costs 10,300Depreciation 1,900EBIT $6,500Interest 1,250Taxable income $5,250Taxes 2,100Net income $3,150OCF = EBIT + Depreciation – TaxesOCF = $6,500 + 1,900 – 2,100OCF = $6,300/doc/a95a227710a6f524cdbf8525.ht ml capital spending = NFA end– NFA beg + Depreciation Net capital spending = $1,690,000 – 1,420,000 + 145,000Net capital spending = $415,0007.The long-term debt account will increase by $35 million, the amount of the new long-term debt issue.Since the company sold 10 million new shares of stock with a $1 par value, the common stock account will increase by $10 million. The capital surplus account will increase by $48 million, the value of the new stock sold above its par value. Since the company had a net income of $9 million, and paid $2 million in dividends, the addition to retained earnings was $7 million, which will increase the accumulated retained earnings account. So, the new long-term debt and stockholders’ equity portion of the balance sheet will be:Long-term debt $ 100,000,000Total long-term debt $ 100,000,000Shareholders equityPreferred stock $ 4,000,000Common stock ($1 par value) 25,000,000Accumulated retained earnings 142,000,000Capital surplus 93,000,000Total equity $ 264,000,000Total Liabilities & Equity $ 364,000,0008.Cash flow to creditors = Interest paid – Net new borrowingCash flow to creditors = $127,000 – (LTD end– LTD beg)Cash flow to creditors = $127,000 – ($1,520,000 – 1,450,000) Cash flow to creditors = $127,000 – 70,000Cash flow to creditors = $57,0009. Cash flow to stockholders = Dividends paid –Net new equityCash flow to stockholders = $275,000 –[(Common end + APIS end) – (Common beg + APIS beg)]Cash flow to stockholders = $275,000 –[($525,000 + 3,700,000) – ($490,000 + 3,400,000)]Cash flow to stockholders = $275,000 –($4,225,000 –3,890,000)Cash flow to stockholders = –$60,000Note, APIS is the additional paid-in surplus.10. Cash flow from assets = Cash flow to creditors + Cash flow to stockholders= $57,000 – 60,000= –$3,000Cash flow from assets = OCF – Change in NWC – Net capital spending–$3,000 = OCF – (–$87,000) – 945,000OCF = $855,000Operating cash flow = –$3,000 – 87,000 + 945,000Operating cash flow = $855,000Intermediate11. a.The accounting statement of cash flows explains the change in cash during the year. Theaccounting statement of cash flows will be:Statement of cash flowsOperationsNet income $95Depreciation 90Changes in other current assets (5)Accounts payable 10Total cash flow from operations $190Investing activitiesAcquisition of fixed assets $(110)Total cash flow from investing activities $(110)Financing activitiesProceeds of long-term debt $5Dividends (75)Total cash flow from financing activities ($70)Change in cash (on balance sheet) $10b.Change in NWC = NWC end– NWC beg= (CA end– CL end) – (CA beg– CL beg)= [($65 + 170) – 125] – [($55 + 165) – 115)= $110 – 105= $5c.To find the cash flow generated by the firm’s assets, we need the operating cash flow, and thecapital spending. So, calculating each of these, we find:Operating cash flowNet income $95Depreciation 90Operating cash flow $185Note that we can calculate OCF in this manner since there are no taxes.Capital spendingEnding fixed assets $390Beginning fixed assets (370)Depreciation 90Capital spending $110Now we can calculate the cash flow generated by the firm’s assets, which is:Cash flow from assetsOperating cash flow $185Capital spending (110)Change in NWC (5)Cash flow from assets $ 7012.With the information provided, the cash flows from the firm are the capital spending and the changein net working capital, so:Cash flows from the firmCapital spending $(21,000)Additions to NWC (1,900)Cash flows from the firm $(22,900)And the cash flows to the investors of the firm are:Cash flows to investors of the firmSale of long-term debt (17,000)Sale of common stock (4,000)Dividends paid 14,500Cash flows to investors of the firm $(6,500)13. a. The interest expense for the company is the amount of debt times the interest rate on the debt.So, the income statement for the company is:Income StatementSales $1,060,000Cost of goods sold 525,000Selling costs 215,000Depreciation 130,000EBIT $190,000Interest 56,000Taxable income $134,000Taxes 46,900Net income $ 87,100b. And the operating cash flow is:OCF = EBIT + Depreciation – TaxesOCF = $190,000 + 130,000 – 46,900OCF = $273,10014.To find the OCF, we first calculate net income.Income StatementSales $185,000Costs 98,000Depreciation 16,500Other expenses 6,700EBIT $63,800Interest 9,000Taxable income $54,800Taxes 19,180Net income $35,620Dividends $9,500Additions to RE $26,120a.OCF = EBIT + Depreciation – TaxesOCF = $63,800 + 16,500 – 19,180OCF = $61,120b.CFC = Interest – Net new LTDCFC = $9,000 – (–$7,100)CFC = $16,100Note that the net new long-term debt is negative because the company repaid part of its long-term debt.c.CFS = Dividends – Net new equityCFS = $9,500 – 7,550CFS = $1,950d.We know that CFA = CFC + CFS, so:CFA = $16,100 + 1,950 = $18,050CFA is also equal to OCF – Net capital spending – Change in NWC. We already know OCF.Net capital spending is equal to:Net capital spending = Increase in NFA + DepreciationNet capital spending = $26,100 + 16,500Net capital spending = $42,600Now we can use:CFA = OCF – Net capital spending – Change in NWC$18,050 = $61,120 – 42,600 – Change in NWC.Solving for the change in NWC gives $470, meaning the company increased its NWC by $470.15.The solution to this question works the income statement backwards. Starting at the bottom:Net income = Dividends + Addition to ret. earningsNet income = $1,570 + 4,900Net income = $6,470Now, looking at the income statement:EBT –(EBT × Tax rate) = Net incomeRecognize that EBT × tax rate is simply the calculation for taxes. Solving this for EBT yields:EBT = NI / (1– Tax rate)EBT = $6,470 / (1 – .35)EBT = $9,953.85Now we can calculate:EBIT = EBT + InterestEBIT = $9,953.85 + 1,840EBIT = $11,793.85The last step is to use:EBIT = Sales – Costs – Depreciation$11,793.85 = $41,000 – 26,400 – DepreciationDepreciation = $2,806.1516.The market value of shareholders’ equity cannot be negative. A negative market value in this casewould imply that the company would pay you to own the stock. The market value of shareholders’ equity can be stated as: Shareholders’ equity = Max [(TA – TL), 0]. So, if TA is $12,400, equity is equal to $1,500, and if TA is $9,600, equity is equal to $0. We should note here that while the market value of equity cannot be negative, the book value of share holders’ equity can be negative. 17. a. Taxes Growth = 0.15($50,000) + 0.25($25,000) + 0.34($86,000 – 75,000) = $17,490Taxes Income = 0.15($50,000) + 0.25($25,000) + 0.34($25,000) + 0.39($235,000)+ 0.34($8,600,000 – 335,000)= $2,924,000b. Each firm has a marginal tax rate of 34% on the next $10,000 of taxable income, despite theirdifferent average tax rates, so both firms will pay an additional $3,400 in taxes.18.Income StatementSales $630,000COGS 470,000A&S expenses 95,000Depreciation 140,000EBIT ($75,000)Interest 70,000Taxable income ($145,000)Taxes (35%) 0/doc/a95a227710a6f524cdbf8525.ht ml income ($145,000)b.OCF = EBIT + Depreciation – TaxesOCF = ($75,000) + 140,000 – 0OCF = $65,000/doc/a95a227710a6f524cdbf8525.ht ml income was negative because of the tax deductibility of depreciation and interest expense.However, the actual cash flow from operations was positive because depreciation is a non-cash expense and interest is a financing expense, not an operating expense.19. A firm can still pay out dividends if net income is negative; it just has to be sure there is sufficientcash flow to make the dividend payments.Change in NWC = Net capital spending = Net new equity = 0. (Given)Cash flow from assets = OCF – Change in NWC – Net capitalspendingCash flow from assets = $65,000 – 0 – 0 = $65,000Cash flow to stockholders = Dividends – Net new equityCash flow to stockholders = $34,000 – 0 = $34,000Cash flow to creditors = Cash flow from assets – Cash flow to stockholdersCash flow to creditors = $65,000 – 34,000Cash flow to creditors = $31,000Cash flow to creditors is also:Cash flow to creditors = Interest – Net new LTDSo:Net new LTD = Interest – Cash flow to creditorsNet new LTD = $70,000 – 31,000Net new LTD = $39,00020. a.The income statement is:Income StatementSales $19,900Cost of good sold 14,200Depreciation 2,700EBIT $ 3,000Interest 670Taxable income $ 2,330Taxes 932Net income $1,398b.OCF = EBIT + Depreciation – TaxesOCF = $3,000 + 2,700 – 932OCF = $4,768c.Change in NWC = NWC end– NWC beg= (CA end– CL end) – (CA beg– CL beg)= ($5,135 – 2,535) – ($4,420 – 2,470)= $2,600 – 1,950 = $650Net capital spending = NFA end– NFA beg + Depreciation = $16,770 – 15,340 + 2,700= $4,130CFA = OCF – Change in NWC – Net capital spending= $4,768 – 650 – 4,130= –$12The cash flow from assets can be positive or negative, since it represents whether the firm raised funds or distributed funds on a net basis. In this problem, even though net income and OCF are positive, the firm invested heavily in both fixed assets and net working capital; it had to raise a net $12 in funds from its stockholders and creditors to make these investments.d.Cash flow to creditors = Interest – Net new LTD= $670 – 0= $670Cash flow to stockholders = Cash flow from assets – Cash flow to creditors= –$12 – 670= –$682We can also calculate the cash flow to stockholders as:Cash flow to stockholders = Dividends – Net new equitySolving for net new equity, we get:Net new equity = $650 – (–682)= $1,332The firm had positive earnings in an accounting sense (NI > 0) and had positive cash flow from operations. The firm invested $650 in new net working capital and $4,130 in new fixed assets.The firm had to raise $12 from its stakeholders to support this new investment. It accomplished this by raising $1,332 in theform of new equity. After paying out $650 of this in the form of dividends to shareholders and $670 in the form of interest to creditors, $12 was left to meet the firm’s cash flow needs for investment.21. a.Total assets 2011 = $936 + 4,176 = $5,112Total liabilities 2011 = $382 + 2,160 = $2,542Owners’ equity 2011 = $5,112 – 2,542 = $2,570Total assets 2012 = $1,015 + 4,896 = $5,911Total liabilities 2012 = $416 + 2,477 = $2,893Owners’ equity 2012 = $5,911 – 2,893 = $3,018b.NWC 2011 = CA11 – CL11 = $936 – 382 = $554NWC 2012 = CA12 – CL12 = $1,015 – 416 = $599Change in NWC = NWC12 – NWC11 = $599 – 554 = $45c.We can calculate net capital spending as:Net capital spending = Net fixed assets 2012 –Net fixed assets 2011 + DepreciationNet capital spending = $4,896 – 4,176 + 1,150Net capital spending = $1,870So, the company had a net capital spending cash flow of $1,870. We also know that net capital spending is:Net capital spending = Fixed assets bought –Fixed assets sold$1,870 = $2,160 – Fixed assets soldFixed assets sold = $2,160 – 1,870 = $290To calculate the cash flow from assets, we must first calculate the operating cash flow. The operating cash flow is calculated as follows (you can also prepare a traditional income statement): EBIT = Sales – Costs – DepreciationEBIT = $12,380 – 5,776 – 1,150EBIT = $5,454EBT = EBIT – InterestEBT = $5,454 – 314EBT = $5,140Taxes = EBT ? .40Taxes = $5,140 ? .40Taxes = $2,056OCF = EBIT + Depreciation – TaxesOCF = $5,454 + 1,150 – 2,056OCF = $4,548Cash flow from assets = OCF – Change in NWC – Net capital spending.Cash flow from assets = $4,548 – 45 – 1,870Cash flow from assets = $2,633/doc/a95a227710a6f524cdbf8525.ht ml new borrowing = LTD12 – LTD11Net new borrowing = $2,477 – 2,160Net new borrowing = $317Cash flow to creditors = Interest – Net new LTDCash flow to creditors = $314 – 317Cash flow to creditors = –$3Net new borrowing = $317 = Debt issued – Debt retiredDebt retired = $432 – 317 = $11522.Balance sheet as of Dec. 31, 2011Cash $4,109 Accounts payable $4,316 Accounts receivable 5,439 Notes payable 794 Inventory 9,670 Current liabilities $5,110 Current assets $19,218Long-term debt $13,460 Net fixed assets $34,455 Owners' equity 35,103 Total assets $53,673 Total liab. & equity $53,673 Balance sheet as of Dec. 31, 2012Cash $5,203 Accounts payable $4,185Accounts receivable 6,127 Notes payable 746Inventory 9,938 Current liabilities $4,931Current assets $21,268Long-term debt $16,050 Net fixed assets $35,277 Owners' equity 35,564Total assets Total liab. & equity2011 Income Statement 2012 Income Statement Sales $7,835.00Sales $8,409.00 COGS 2,696.00COGS 3,060.00 Other expenses 639.00Other expenses 534.00 Depreciation 1,125.00Depreciation 1,126.00 EBIT $3,375.00EBIT $3,689.00 Interest 525.00Interest 603.00 EBT $2,850.00EBT $3,086.00 Taxes 969.00Taxes 1,049.24 Net income $1,881.00Net income $2,036.76 Dividends $956.00Dividends $1,051.00 Additions to RE 925.00Additions to RE 985.76 23.OCF = EBIT + Depreciation –TaxesOCF = $3,689 + 1,126 – 1,049.24OCF = $3,765.76Change in NWC = NWC end– NWC beg = (CA – CL) end– (CA – CL) begChange in NWC = ($21,268 – 4,931) – ($19,218 – 5,110)Change in NWC = $2,229Net capital spending = NFA end– NFA beg+ DepreciationNet capital spending = $35,277 – 34,455 + 1,126Net capital spending = $1,948Cash flow from assets = OCF – Change in NWC – Net capital spendingCash flow from assets = $3,765.76 – 2,229 – 1,948Cash flow from assets = –$411.24Cash flow to creditors = Interest – Net new LTDNet new LTD = LTD end– LTD begCash flow to creditors = $603 – ($16,050 – 13,460)Cash flow to creditors = –$1,987Net new equity = Common stock end– Common stock beg Common stock + Retained earnings = Total owners’ equity Net new equity = (OE – RE) end– (OE – RE) begNet new equity = OE end– OE beg + RE beg– RE endRE end= RE beg+ Additions to RENet new equity = OE end–OE beg+ RE beg–(RE beg + Additions to RE)= OE end– OE beg– Additions to RENet new equity = $35,564 – 35,103 – 985.76 = –$524.76Cash flow to stockholders = Dividends – Net new equityCash flow to stockholders = $1,051– (–$524.76)Cash flow to stockholders = $1,575.76As a check, cash flow from assets is –$411.24Cash flow from assets = Cash flow from creditors + Cash flow to stockholdersCash flow from assets = –$1,987 + 1,575.76Cash flow from assets = –$411.24Challenge24.We will begin by calculating the operating cash flow.

CorporateFinance10ESolutionManual课后习题解答Chap001Chapter 01 - Introduction to Corporate FinanceSolutions ManualCorporate FinanceRoss, Westerfield, and Jaffe10th editionXX/XX/2013Prepared by:Joe SmoliraBelmont UniversityCHAPTER 1INTRODUCTION TO CORPORATE FINANCEAnswers to Concept Questions1. In the corporate form of ownership, the shareholders are the owners of the firm. The shareholderselect the directors of the corporation, who in turn appoint the firm’s management. This separation of ownership from control in the corporate form of organization is what causes agency problems to exist. Management may act in its own or someone else’s best interests, rather than those of the shareholders. If such events occur, they may contradict the goal of maximizing the share price of the equity of the firm.2.Such organizations frequently pursue social or political missions, so many different goals areconceivable. One goal that is often cited is revenue minimization; i.e., provide whatever goods and services are offered at the lowest possible cost to society. A better approach might be to observe that even a not-for-profit business hasequity. Thus, one answer is that the appropriate goal is to maximize the value of the equity.3.Presumably, the current stock value reflects the risk, timing, and magnitude of all future cash flows,both short-term and long-term. If this is correct, then the statement is false.4.An argument can be made either way. At the one extreme, we could argue that in a market economy,all of these things are priced. There is thus an optimal level of, for example, ethical and/or illegal behavior, and the framework of stock valuation explicitly includes these. At the other extreme, we could argue that these are non-economic phenomena and are best handled through the political process.A classic (and highly relevant) thought question that illustrates this debate goes something like this: “A firm has estimated that the cost of improving the safety of one of its products is $30 million. However, the firm believes that improving the safety of the product will only save $20 million in product liability claims. What should the firm do?”5.The goal will be the same, but the best course of action toward that goal may be different because ofdiffering social, political, and economic institutions.6.The goal of management should be to maximize the share price for the current shareholders. Ifmanagement believes that it can improve the profitability of the firm so that the share price will exceed $35, then they should fight the offer from the outside company. If management believes that this bidder or other unidentified bidders will actually pay more than $35 per share to acquire the company, then they should still fight the offer. However, if the currentmanagement cannot increase the value of the firm beyond the bid price, and no other higher bids come in, then management is not acting in the interests of the shareholders by fighting the offer. Since current managers often lose their jobs when the corporation is acquired, poorly monitored managers have an incentive to fight corporate takeovers in situations such as this.7.We would expect agency problems to be less severe in other countries, primarily due to the relativelysmall percentage of individual ownership. Fewer individual owners should reduce the number of diverse opinions concerning corporate goals. The high percentage of institutional ownership might lead to a higher degree of agreement between owners and managers on decisions concerning risky projects. In addition, institutions may be better able to implement effective monitoring mechanisms on managers than can individual owners, based on the institutions’ deeper resources and experiences with their own management.8.The increase in institutional ownership of stock in the United States and the growing activism ofthese large shareholder groups may lead to a reduction in agency problems for U.S. corporations anda more efficient market for corporate control. However, this may not always be the case. If themanagers of the mutual fund or pension plan are not concerned with the interests of the investors, the agency problem could potentially remain the same, or even increase since there is the possibility of agency problems between the fund and its investors.9. How much is too much? Who is worth more, Larry Ellsion or Tiger Woods? The simplest answer isthat there is a market for executives just as there is for all types of labor. Executive compensation is the price that clears the market. The same is true for athletes and performers. Having said that, one aspect of executive compensation deserves comment.A primary reason executive compensation has grown so dramatically is that companies have increasingly moved to stock-based compensation.Such movement is obviously consistent with the attempt to better align stockholder and management interests. In recent years, stock prices have soared, so management has cleaned up. It is sometimes argued that much of this reward is simply due to rising stock prices in general, not managerial performance. Perhaps in the future, executive compensation will be designed to reward only differential performance, i.e., stock price increases in excess of general market increases.10. Maximizing the current share price is the same as maximizing the future share price at any futureperiod. The value of a share of stock depends on all of the future cash flows of company. Another way to look at this is that, barring large cash payments to shareholders, the expected price of the stock must be higher in the future than it is today. Who would buy a stock for $100 today when the share price in one year is expected to be $80?。

CHAPTER 10 MANAGEMENT OF TRANSLATION EXPOSURESUGGESTED ANSWERS AND SOLUTIONS TO END-OF-CHAPTERQUESTIONS AND PROBLEMSQUESTIONS1. Explain the difference in the translation process between the monetary/nonmonetary method and the temporal method.Answer: Under the monetary/nonmonetary method, all monetary balance sheet accounts of a foreign subsidiary are translated at the current exchange rate. Other balance sheet accounts are translated at the historical rate exchange rate in effect when the account was first recorded. Under the temporal method, monetary accounts are translated at the current exchange rate. Other balance sheet accounts are also translated at the current rate, if they are carried on the books at current value. If they are carried at historical value, they are translated at the rate in effect on the date the item was put on the books. Since fixed assets and inventory are usually carried at historical costs, the temporal method and the monetary/nonmonetary method will typically provide the same translation.2. How are translation gains and losses handled differently according to the current rate method in comparison to the other three methods, that is, the current/noncurrent method, the monetary/nonmonetary method, and the temporal method?Answer: Under the current rate method, translation gains and losses are handled only as an adjustment to net worth through an equity account named the “cumulative translation adjustment” account. Nothing passes through the income statement. The other three translation methods pass foreign exchange gains or losses through the income statement before they enter on to the balance sheet through the accumulated retained earnings account.3. Identify some instances under FASB 52 when a foreign enti ty’s functional currency would be the same as the parent firm’s currency.Answer: Three examples under FASB 52, where the foreign entity’s functional currency will be the same as the parent firm’s currency, are: i) the foreign entity’s cash flows directly affect the parent’s cash flows and are readily available for remittance to the parent firm; ii) the sales prices for the foreign entity’s products are responsive on a short-term basis to exchange rate changes, where sales prices are determined through wo rldwide competition; and, iii) the sales market is primarily located in the parent’s country or sales contracts are denominated in the parent’s currency.4. Describe the remeasurement and translation process under FASB 52 of a wholly owned affiliate that keeps its books in the local currency of the country in which it operates, which is different than its functional currency.Answer: For a foreign entity that keeps its books in its local currency, which is different from its functional currency, the translation process according to FASB 52 is to: first, remeasure the financial reports from the local currency into the functional currency using the temporal method of translation, and second, translate from the functional currency into the reporting currency using the current rate method of translation.5. It is, generally, not possible to completely eliminate both translation exposure and transaction exposure. In some cases, the elimination of one exposure will also eliminate the other. But in other cases, the elimination of one exposure actually creates the other. Discuss which exposure might be viewed as the most important to effectively manage, if a conflict between controlling both arises. Also, discuss and critique the common methods for controlling translation exposure.Answer: Since it is, generally, not possible to completely eliminate both transaction and translation exposure, we recommend that transaction exposure be given first priority since it involves real cash flows. The translation process, on-the-other hand, has no direct effect on reporting currency cash flows, and will only have a realizable effect on net investment upon the sale or liquidation of the assets.There are two common methods for controlling translation exposure: a balance sheet hedge and a derivatives hedge. The balance sheet hedge involves equating the amount of exposed assets in an exposure currency with the exposed liabilities in that currency, so the net exposure is zero. Thus when an exposure currency exchange rate changes versus the reporting currency, the change in assets will offset the change in liabilities. To create a balance sheet hedge, once transaction exposure has been controlled, often means creating new transaction exposure. This is not wise since real cash flow losses can result. A derivatives hedge is not really a hedge, but rather a speculative position, since the size of the “hedge” is based on the future expected spot rate of exchange for the exposure currency with the reporting currency. If the actual spot rate differs from the expected rate, the “hedge” may result in the loss of real cash flows.PROBLEMS1. Assume that FASB 8 is still in effect instead of FASB 52. Construct a translation exposure report for Centralia Corporation and its affiliates that is the counterpart to Exhibit 10.7 in the text. Centralia and its affiliates carry inventory and fixed assets on the books at historical values.Solution: The following table provides a translation exposure report for Centralia Corporation and its affiliates under FASB 8, which is essentially the temporal method of translation. The difference between the new report and Exhibit 10.7 is that nonmonetary accounts such as inventory and fixed assets are translated at the historical exchange rate if they are carried at historical costs. Thus, these accounts will not change values when exchange rates change and they do not create translation exposure.Examination of the table indicates that under FASB 8 there is negative net exposure for the Mexican peso and the euro, whereas under FASB 52 the net exposure for these currencies is positive. There is no change in net exposure for the Canadian dollar and the Swiss franc. Consequently, if the euro depreciates against the dollar from €1.1000/$1.00 to €1.1786/$1.00, as the text example assumed, exposed assets will now fall in value by a smaller amount than exposed liabilities, instead of vice versa.

Construct a consolidated balance sheet for Centralia Corporation and its affiliates after a depreciation of the euro from €1.1000/$1.00 to €1.1786/$1.00 that is the counterpart to Exhibit 10.8 in the text. Centralia and its affiliates c arry inventory and fixed assets on the books at historical values.Solution: This problem is the sequel to Problem 1. The solution to Problem 1 showed that if the euro depreciated there would be a reporting currency imbalance of $239,415. Under FASB 8 this is carried through the income statement as a foreign exchange gain to the retained earnings on the balance sheet. The following table shows that consolidated retained earnings increased to $4,190,000 from $3,950,000 in Exhibit 10.8. This is an increase of $240,000, which is the same as the reporting currency imbalance after accounting for rounding error.Consolidated Balance Sheet under FASB 8 for Centralia Corporation and its Mexican and Spanisha This includes CD200,000 the parent firm has in a Canadian bank, carried as $150,000. CD200,000/(CD1.3333/$1.00) = $150,000.b$1,750,000 - $300,000 (= Ps3,000,000/(Ps10.00/$1.00)) intracompany loan = $1,450,000.c,d Investment in affiliates cancels with the net worth of the affiliates in the consolidation.e The Spanish affiliate owes a Swiss bank SF375,000 (÷ SF1.2727/€1.00 = €294,649). This is carried on the books,after the exchange rate change, as part of €1,229,649 = €294,649 + €935,000. €1,229,649/(€1.1786/$1.00) = $1,043,313.3. In Example 10.2, a f orward contract was used to establish a derivatives “hedge” to protect Centralia from a translation loss if the euro depreciated from €1.1000/$1.00 to €1.1786/$1.00. Assume that an over-the-counter put option on the euro with a strike price of €1.1393/$1.00 (or $0.8777/€1.00) can be purchased for $0.0088 per euro. Show how the potential translation loss can be “hedged” with an option contract.Solution: As in example 10.2, if the potential translation loss is $110,704, the equivalent amount in functiona l currency that needs to be hedged is €3,782,468. If in fact the euro does depreciate to €1.1786/$1.00 ($0.8485/€1.00), €3,782,468 can be purchased in the spot market for $3,209,289. At a striking price of €1.1393/$1.00, the €3,782,468 can be sold throu gh the put for $3,319,993, yielding a gross profit of $110,704. The put option cost $33,286 (= €3,782,468 x $0.0088). Thus, at an exchange rate of €1.1786/$1.00, the put option will effectively hedge $110,704 - $33,286 = $77,418 of the potential translat ion loss. At terminal exchange rates of €1.1393/$1.00 to €1.1786/$1.00, the put option hedge will be less effective. An option contract does not have to be exercised if doing so is disadvantageous to the option owner. Therefore, the put will not be exer cised at exchange rates of less than €1.1393/$1.00 (more than $0.8777/€1.00), in which case the “hedge” will lose the $33,286 cost of the option.MINI CASE: SUNDANCE SPORTING GOODS, INC.Sundance Sporting Goods, Inc., is a U.S. manufacturer of high-quality sporting goods--principally golf, tennis and other racquet equipment, and also lawn sports, such as croquet and badminton-- with administrative offices and manufacturing facilities in Chicago, Illinois. Sundance has two wholly owned manufacturing affiliates, one in Mexico and the other in Canada. The Mexican affiliate is located in Mexico City and services all of Latin America. The Canadian affiliate is in Toronto and serves only Canada. Each affiliate keeps its books in its local currency, which is also the functional currency for the affiliate. The current exchange rates are: $1.00 = CD1.25 = Ps3.30 = A1.00 = ¥105 = W800. The nonconsolidated balance sheets for Sundance and its two affiliates appear in the accompanying table.Nonconsolidated Balance Sheet for Sundance Sporting Goods, Inc. and Its Mexican and Canadiana The parent firm is owed Ps1,320,000 by the Mexican affiliate. This sum is included in the parent’s accounts receivable as $400,000, translated at Ps3.30/$1.00. The remainder of the parent’s (Mexican affiliate’s) a ccounts receivable (payable) is denominated in dollars (pesos).b The Mexican affiliate is wholly owned by the parent firm. It is carried on the parent firm’s books at $2,400,000. This represents the sum of the common stock (Ps4,500,000) and retained earnings (Ps3,420,000) on the Mexican affiliate’s books, translated at Ps3.30/$1.00.c The Canadian affiliate is wholly owned by the parent firm. It is carried on the parent firm’s books at $3,600,000. This represents the sum of the common stock (CD2,900,000) and the retained earnings (CD1,600,000) on the Canadian affiliate’s books, translated at CD1.25/$1.00.d The parent firm has outstanding notes payable of ¥126,000,000 due a Japanese bank. This sum is carried on th e parent firm’s books as $1,200,000, translated at ¥105/$1.00. Other notes payable are denominated in U.S. dollars.e The Mexican affiliate has sold on account A120,000 of merchandise to an Argentine import house. This sum is carried on the Mexican affi liate’s books as Ps396,000, translated at A1.00/Ps3.30. Other accounts receivable are denominated in Mexican pesos.f The Canadian affiliate has sold on account W192,000,000 of merchandise to a Korean importer. This sum is carried on the Canadian affilia te’s books as CD300,000, translated at W800/CD1.25. Other accounts receivable are denominated in Canadian dollars.You joined the International Treasury division of Sundance six months ago after spending the last two years receiving your MBA degree. The corporate treasurer has asked you to prepare a report analyzing all aspects of the translation exposure faced by Sundance as a MNC. She has also asked you to address in your analysis the relationship between the firm’s translation exposure and its transa ction exposure. After performing a forecast of future spot rates of exchange, you decide that you must do the following before any sensible report can be written.a. Using the current exchange rates and the nonconsolidated balance sheets for Sundance and its affiliates, prepare a consolidated balance sheet for the MNC according to FASB 52.b. i. Prepare a translation exposure report for Sundance Sporting Goods, Inc., and its two affiliates.ii. Using the translation exposure report you have prepared, determine if any reporting currency imbalance will result from a change in exchange rates to which the firm has currency exposure. Your forecast is that exchange rates will change from $1.00 = CD1.25 = Ps3.30 = A1.00 = ¥105 = W800 to $1.00 = CD1.30 = Ps3.30 = A1.03 = ¥105 = W800.c. Prepare a second consolidated balance sheet for the MNC using the exchange rates you expect in the future. Determine how any reporting currency imbalance will affect the new consolidated balance sheet for the MNC.d. i. Prepare a transaction exposure report for Sundance and its affiliates. Determine if any transaction exposures are also translation exposures.ii. Investigate what Sundance and its affiliates can do to control its transaction and translation exposures. Determine if any of the translation exposure should be hedged.Suggested Solution to Sundance Sporting Goods, Inc.Note to Instructor: It is not necessary to assign the entire case problem. Parts a. and b.i. can be used as self-contained problems, respectively, on basic balance sheet consolidation and the preparation of a translation exposure report.a. Below is the consolidated balance sheet for the MNC prepared according to the current rate method prescribed by FASB 52. Note that the balance sheet balances. That is, Total Assets and Total Liabilities and Net Worth equal one another. Thus, the assumption is that the current exchange rates are the same as when the affiliates were established. This assumption is relaxed in part c.Consolidated Balance Sheet for Sundance Sporting Goods, Inc. its Mexican and Canadian Affiliates, December 31, 2005: Pre-Exchange Rate Change (in 000 Dollars)Sundance, Inc.

This is carried on the Canadian affiliate’s books as CD300,000 (= W192,000,000/(W800/CD1.25)).b. i. Below is presented the translation exposure report for the Sundance MNC. Note, from the report that there is net positive exposure in the Mexican peso, Canadian dollar, Argentine austral and Korean won. If any of these exposure currencies appreciates (depreciates) against the U.S. dollar, exposed assets denominated in these currencies will increase (fall) in translated value by a greater amount than the exposed liabilities denominated in these currencies. There is negative net exposure in the Japanese yen. If the yen appreciates (depreciates) against the U.S. dollar, exposed assets denominated in the yen will increase (fall) in translated value by smaller amount than the exposed liabilities denominated in the yen.Translation Exposure Report for Sundance Sporting Goods, Inc. and its Mexican and Canadian Affiliates, December 31, 2005 (in 000 Currency Units)b. ii. The problem assumes that Canadian dollar depreciates from CD1.25/$1.00 to CD1.30/$1.00 and that the Argentine austral depreciates from A1.00/$1.00 to A1.03/$1.00. To determine the reporting currency imbalance in translated value caused by these exchange rate changes, we can use the following formula:Net Exposure Currency i S(i/reporting)-Net Exposure Currency i S(i/reporting)new old = Reporting Currency Imbalance.From the translation exposure report we can determine that the depreciation in the Canadian dollar will cause aCD4,200,000 CD1.30/$1.00-CD4,200,000CD1.25/$1.00= -$129,231reporting currency imbalance.Similarly, the depreciation in the Argentine austral will cause aA120,000 A1.03/$1.00-A120,000A1.00/$1.00= -$3,495reporting currency imbalance.In total, the depreciation of the Canadian dollar and the Argentine austral will cause a reporting currency imbalance in translated value equal to -$129,231 -$3,495= -$132,726.c. The new consolidated balance sheet for Sundance MNC after the depreciation of the Canadian dollar and the Argentine austral is presented below. Note that in order for the new consolidated balance sheet to balance after the exchange rate change, it is necessary to have a cumulative translation adjustment account balance of -$133 thousand, which is the amount of the reporting currency imbalance determined in part b. ii (rounded to the nearest thousand).Consolidated Balance Sheet for Sundance Sporting Goods, Inc. its Mexican and Canadian Affiliates, December 31, 2005: Post-Exchange Rate Change (in 000 Dollars)a$2,500,000 - $400,000 (= Ps1,320,000/(Ps3.30/$1.00)) intracompany loan = $2,100,000.b,c The investment in the affiliates cancels with the net worth of the affiliates in the consolidation.d The parent owes a Japanese bank ¥126,000,000. This is carried on the books as $1,200,000 (=¥126,000,000/(¥105/$1.00)).e The Mexican affiliate has sold on account A120,000 of merchandise to an Argentine import house. This is carried on the Mexican affiliate’s books as Ps384,466 (= A120,000 x Ps3.30/A1.03).f The Canadian affiliate has sold on account W192,000,000 of merchandise to a Korean importer. This is carried on the Canadian affiliate’s books as CD312,000 (=W192,000,000/(W800/CD1.30)).d. i. The transaction exposure report for Sundance, Inc. and its two affiliates is presented below. The report indicates that the Ps1,320,000 accounts receivable due from the Mexican affiliate is not also a translation exposure because this is netted out in the consolidation. However, the ¥126,000,000 notes payable of the parent is also a translation exposure. Additionally, the A120,000 accounts receivable of the Mexican affiliate and the W192,000,000 accounts receivable of the Canadian affiliate are both translation exposures.Transaction Exposure Report for Sundance Sporting Goods, Inc. andits Mexican and Canadian Affiliates, December 31, 2005d. ii. Since transaction exposure may potentially result in real cash flow losses while translation exposure does not have an immediate direct effect on operating cash flows, we will first address the transaction exposure that confronts Sundance and its affiliates. The analysis assumes the depreciation in the Canadian dollar and the Argentine austral have already taken place.The parent firm can pay off the ¥126,000,000 loan from the Japanese bank using funds from the cash account and money from accounts receivable that it will collect. Additionally, the parent firm can collect the accounts receivable of Ps1,320,000 from its Mexican affiliate that is carried on the books as $400,000. In turn, the Mexican affiliate can collect the A120,000 accounts receivable from the Argentine importer, valued at Ps384,466 after the depreciation in the austral, to guard against further depreciation and to use to partially pay off the peso liability to the parent. The Canadian affiliate can eliminate its transaction exposure by collecting the W192,000,000 accounts receivable as soon as possible, which is currently valued at CD312,000.The elimination of these transaction exposures will affect the translation exposure of Sundance MNC. A revised translation exposure report follows.Revised Translation Exposure Report for Sundance Sporting Goods, Inc. and its Mexican and Canadian Affiliates, December 31, 2005 (in 000 Currency Units)Note from the revised translation exposure report that the elimination of the transaction exposure will also eliminate the translation exposure in the Japanese yen, Argentine austral and the Korean won. Moreover, the net translation exposure in the Mexican peso has been reduced. But the net translation exposure in the Canadian dollar has increased as a result of the Canadian affiliate’s collection of the won receivable.The remaining translation exposure can be hedged using a balance sheet hedge or a derivatives hedge. Use of a balance sheet hedge is likely to create new transaction exposure, however. Use of a derivatives hedge is actually speculative, and not a real hedge, since the size of the “hedge” is based on one’s expectation as to the future spot exchange rate. An incorrect estimate will result in the “hedge” losing money for the MNC.。
