    The board of directors of Rutherford plc is arguing about the company's dividend policy. Director A is infavour of financing all investment by retained earnings and other internally generated funds. He argues that a high level of retentions will save issue costs, and that declaring dividends always results in a fall in share price when the shares are traded ex div. Director B believes that the dividend policy depends upon the type of shareholders that the company has, and that dividends should be paid according to shareholders' needs. She presents data relating to the company's current shareholders. fig19224556.png She argues that the company‟s shareholder „clientele‟ must be identified, and dividends fixed according to their marginal tax brackets. Director C agrees that shareholders are important, but points out that many institutional shareholders and private individuals rely on dividends to satisfy their current income requirements, and prefer a known dividend now to an uncertain capital gain in the future. Director D considers the discussion to be a waste of time. He believes that one dividend policy is as good as other, and that dividend policy has no effect on the share price. You are required to discuss critically the arguments for each of the four directors using both the information provided and any other evidence on the effect of dividend policy on share price that you consider to be relevant.

    The managing director of Wemere, a medium -sized private company, wishes to improve the company's investment decision-making process by using discounted cash flow techniques. He is disappointed to learn that estimates of a company‟s cost of capital usually require information on share prices which, for a private company, are not available. His deputy suggests that the cost of equity can be estimated by using data for Folten Ltd., a similar sized company in the same industry whose shares are listed on the SE, and he has produced two suggested discount rates for use in Wemere's future investment appraisal. Both of these estimates are in excess of 17% per year which the managing director believes to be very high, especially as the company has just agreed a fixed rate bank loan at 13% per year to finance a small expansion of existing operations. He has checked the calculations, which are numerically correct, but wonders if there are any errors of principle. Estimate 1: capital asset pricing model Data have been purchased from a leading business school: Equity beta of Folten 1.4 Market return 18% Treasury bill yield 12% The cost of capital is 18% +(18% - 12%)1.4 = 26.4%. This rate must be adjusted to include inflation at the current level of 6%. The recommended discount rate is 32.4%. fig10224459.png Notes: (1) The current ex-div share price of Folten plc is Sh.13.80. (2) Wemere's board of directors has recently rejected a take-over bid of Sh.10.6 million. (3) Corporate tax is at the rate of 35%. You are required: (a) to explain any errors of principle that have been made in two estimates of the cost of capital and produce revised estimates using both of the methods. State clearly any assumptions that you make. (b) to discuss which of your revised estimates Wemere should use as the discount rate for capital investment appraisal.

    A division of Bewcast plc has been allocated a fixed capital sum by the main board of directors for its capital investment during the next year. The division's management has identified three capital investment projects, each potentially successful, each of similar size, but has only been allocated enough funds to undertake two projects. Projects are not divisible and cannot be postponed until a later date. The division's management proposes to use portfolio theory to determine which two projects should be undertaken, based upon an analysis of the projects‟ risk and return. The success of the projects will depend upon the growth rate of the economy. Estimates of project returns at different levels of economic growth are shown below: fig5224451.png You are required: (a) to use the above information to evaluate and discuss which two projects the division is likely to undertake. All relevant calculations must be shown. (b) What are the weaknesses of the evaluation technique used in (a) above, and what further information might be useful in the evaluation of these projects? (c) Suggest why portfolio theory is not widely used in practice as a capital investment evaluation technique. (d) Recommend, and briefly describe, an alternative investment evaluation technique that might be applied by the division.

    Ceder Ltd has details of two machines which could fulfill the company's future production plans. Only one of these machines will be purchased. The standard model costs Sh.50,000, and the deluxe Sh.88,000, payable immediately. Both machines would require the input of Sh.10,000 working capital throughout their working lives, and both machines have no expected scrap value at the end of their expected working lives of four years for the standard machine and six years for the deluxe machine. The forecast pre-tax operating net cash flows associated with the two machines are: fig1224445.png The de-luxe machine has only recently been introduced to the market and has not been fully tested in operating conditions. Because of the higher risk involved, the appropriate discount rate for the de-luxe machine is believed to be 14% per year, 2% higher than the discount rate for the standard machine. The company is proposing to finance the purchase of either machine with a term loan at a fixed interest rate of 11% per year. Taxation at 35% is payable on operating cash flows one year in arrears, and capital allowances are available at 25% per year on a reducing balance basis. You are required: (a) to calculate for both the standard and the de-luxe machine: (i) pay-back period; (ii) net present value Recommend, with reasons, which of the two machines Ceder Ltd should purchase. (Relevant calculations must be shown) (b) If Ceder Ltd were offered the opportunity to lease the standard model machine over a four year period at a rental of Sh.15,000 per year, not including maintenance costs, evaluate whether the company should lease or purchase the machine.

    You are presented with the following different views of stock market behaviour. (1) If a company publishes an earnings figure that is better than the market expects, the shares of that company will usually experience an abnormally high return both on the day of the earnings announcement and over the two or three days following the date of the announcement. (2) The return on professionally managed portfolios of equities is likely to be no better than that which ` could be achieved by a naïve investor who holds the market portfolio. (3) Share prices usually seem to rise sharply in the first few days of a new fiscal year. However, this can be explained by the fact that many investors sell loosing stocks just before the fiscal year end in order to establish a tax loss for Capital Gains Tax purposes. This causes abnormal downward pressure which is released when the new fiscal year begins. You are required: (a) to describe the three forms of the Efficient Market Hypothesis; (b) to discuss what each of the above three statements would tell you about the efficiency of the stock market. Where appropriate relate your comments to one or more forms o f the Efficient Market Hypothesis.

    Fuelit plc is an electricity supplier in the UK. The company has historically generated the majority of its electricity using a coal fueled power station, but as a result of the closure of many coal mines and depleted coal resources, is now considering what type of new power station to invest in. The alternatives are a gas fueled power station, or a new type of efficient nuclear power station. Both types of power station are expected to generate annual revenues at current prices of Sh.800 million. The expected operating life of both types of power station is 25 years. fig1224850.png Other information: (i) Whichever power station is selected, electricity generation is scheduled to commence in three years time. (ii) If gas is used most of the workers at the existing coal fired station can be transferred to the new power station. After tax redundancy costs are expected to total Sh.4 million in year four. If nuclear power is selected fewer workers will be required and after tax redundancy costs will total Sh.36 million, also in year four. (iii) Both projects would be financed by Euro-bond issues denominated in Euros. The gas powered station would require a bond issue at 8.5% per year, the bond for the nuclear project would be at 10% reflecting the impact on financial gearing of a larger bond issue. (iv) Costs of building the new power stations would be payable in two equal installments in one and two years time. (v) The existing coal fired power station would need to be demolished at a cost of Sh.10 million in three years time. (vi) The company‟s equity beta is expected to be 0.7 if the gas station is chosen and 1.4 if the nuclear station is chosen. Gearing (debt to equity plus debt) is expected to be 35% with gas and 60% with nuclear fuel. (vii) The risk free rate is 4.5% per year and the market return is 14% per year. Inflation is currently 3% per year in the UK and an average of 5% per year in the member countries of the Euro bloc in the European Union. (viii) Corporate tax is at the rate of 30% payable in the same year that the liability arises. (ix) Tax allowable depreciation is at the rte of 10% per year on a straight line basis. (x) At the end of twenty-five years of operations the gas plant is expected to cost Sh.25 million (after tax) to demolish and clean up the site. Costs of decommissioning the nuclear plant are much less certain, and could be anything between Sh.500 million and Sh.1,000 million (after tax) depending upon what form of disposal is available for nuclear waste. Required: (a) Estimate the expected NPV of EACH OF investment in a gas fueled power station and investment in a nuclear fueled power station. State clearly any assumptions that you make. (NB: It is recommended that annuity tables are used wherever possible) (b) Discuss other information that might assist the decision process.

    The finance department of Beela Electronics has been criticized by the company's board of directors for not undertaking an assessment of the political risk of the company's potential direct investments in Africa. The board has received an interim report from a consultant that provides an assessment of the factors affecting political risk in three African countries. The report assesses key variables on a scale of –10 to +10, with –10 the worst possible score and +10 the best. fig1214953.png The consultant suggests that economic growth and political stability are twice as important as the other factors. The consultant states in the report that previous clients have not invested in countries with a total weighted score of less than 30 out of a maximum possible 100 (with economic growth and political stability double weighted). The consultant therefore recommends that no investment in Africa should be undertaken. Required: (a) Discuss whether or not Beela electronics should use the technique suggested by the consultant in order to decide whether or not to invest in Africa. (b) Discuss briefly how Beela might manage political risk if it decides to invest in Africa.

    The managers of Strayer plc are investigating a potential Sh.25 million investment. The investment would be a diversification away from existing mainstream activities and into the printing industry. Sh.6 million of the investment would be financed by internal funds, Sh.10 million by a rights issue and Sh.9 million by long term loans. The investment is expected to generate pre-tax net cash flows of approximately Sh.5 million per year, for a period of ten years. The residual value at the end of year ten is forecast to be Sh.5 million after tax. As the investment is in an area that the government wishes to develop, a subsidized loan of Sh.4 million out of the total Sh.9 million is available. This will cost 2% below the company's normal cost of long-term debt finance, which is 8%. Strayer's equity beta is 0.85, and its financial gearing is 60% equity, 40% debt by value. The average equity beta in the printing industry is 1.2, and average gearing 50% equity, 50% debt by market value. The risk free rate is 5.5% per annum and the market return 12% per annum. Issue costs are estimated to be 1% for debt financing (excluding the subsidized loan), and 4% for equity financing. These costs are not tax allowable. The corporate tax rate is 30%. Required: (a) Estimate the Adjusted Present Value (APV) of the proposed investment. (b) Comment upon the circumstances under which APV might be a better method of evaluating a capital investment than Net Present Value (NPV).

    Components Manufacturing Corporation (CMC) has an all-common-equity capital structure. It has 200,000 shares of Sh.2 par value common stock outstanding. When CMC‟s founder, who has also its research director and most successful inventor; retired unexpectedly to the South Pacific in late 2000, CMC was left suddenly and permanently with materially lower growth expectations and relatively few attractive new investment opportunities. Unfortunately, there was no way to replace the founder's contributions to the firm. Previously, CMC found it necessary to plow back most of its earnings to finance growth, which averaged 12 percent per year. Future growth at a five percent rate is considered realistic, but that level would call for an increase in the dividend payout. Further, it now appears that new investment projects with at least the 14 percent rate of return required by CMC's stockholders (ks= 14%) would amount to only Sh.800,000 for 2001in comparison to a projected Sh.2,000,000 of net income. If the existing 20 percent dividend payout were continued, retained earnings would be Sh.1.6 million in 2001, but as noted, investments that yield the 14 percent cost of capital would amount to only Sh.800,000. The one encouraging thing is that the high earnings from existing assets are expected to continue, and net income of Sh.2 million is still expected for 2001. Given the dramatically changed circumstances, CMC's management is reviewing the firm's dividend policy. (a) Assuming that the acceptable 2001 investment projects would be financed entirely by earnings retained during the year, calculate DPS in 2001 if CMC follows the residual divided policy. (b) What payout ratio does your answer to part a imply for 2001? (c) If a 60 percent payout ratio is maintained for the foreseeable future, what is your estimate of the present market price of the common stock? How does this compare with the market price that should have prevailed under the assumptions existing just before the news about the founder's retirement? If the two values of P0 are different, comment on why. (d) What would happen to the price of the stock if the old 20 percent payout were continued? Assume that if this payout is maintained, the average rate of return on the retained earnings will fall to 7.5 percent and the new growth rate will be g = (1.0 – Payout ratio)(ROE) = (1.0 – 0.2)(7.5%) = (0.8)(7.5%) = 6.0%

LEI paid a dividend of Sh.3.60 per share last hear, and its stock currently sells at a price of Sh.60 per share. LEI can obtain new capital in the following ways: Common: New common stock has a flotation cost of ten percent for up to Sh.12,000 of new stock and 20percent for all common stock over Sh.12,000. Preferred: New preferred stock with a dividend of Sh.11 can be sold to the public at a price of Sh.100 per share. However, flotation costs of Sh.5 per share will be incurred for up to Sh.7,500 of preferred stock, and flotation costs will rise to Sh.10 per share, or ten percent, on all preferred stock over Sh.7,500. Debt: Up to Sh.5,000 of debt can be sold at an interest rate of 12 percent; debt in the range of Sh.5,001 to Sh.10,000 must carry an interest rate of 14 percent; and all debt over Sh.10,000 will have an interest rate of 16 percent. LEI has the following independent opportunities: fig112041008.png (a) Find the break points in the MCC schedule (b) Determine the cost of each capital structure component. (c) Calculate the weighted average cost of capital in the interval between each break in the MCC schedule. (d) Calculate the IRR for Project E.

    Dove Construction Company Ltd made a Sh.100 million bondage 5 years ago when interest rates were substantially high. The interest rates have now fallen and the firm wishes to retire this old debt and replace it with a new and cheaper one. Given here below are the details about the two bond issues: Old Bonds: The outstanding bonds have a nominal value of Sh.1,000 and 24% coupon interest rate. They were issued 5 years ago with a 15-year maturity. They were initially sold a their nominal value of Sh.1,000 and the firm incurred Sh.390,000 in floatation costs. They are callable at Sh.1,120. New Bonds: The new bonds would have a Sh.1,000 nominal value and a 20% coupon interest rate. They would have a 10-year maturity and could be sold at their par value. The issuance cost of the new bonds would be Sh.525,000. Assume the firm does not expect to have any overlapping interest and is in the 35% tax bracket. Required: a) Calculate the after-tax cash inflows expected from the unamortized portion of the old bond's issuance cost. b) Calculate the annual after-tax cash inflows from the issuance of the new bonds assuming the 10-year amortization. c) Calculate the after-tax cash outflow from the call premium required to retire the old bonds. d) Determine the incremental initial cash outlay required to issue the new bonds. e) Calculate the annual cash-flow savings, if any, expected from the bond refunding. f) If the firm has a 14% after-tax cost of debt, would you recommend the proposed refunding and reissue?
