I need help proof reading my assignment please, thank you in advance.

Cost of Debt

The cost of debt is the effective rate that a company pays on its total debt.

As a company acquires debt through various bonds, loans and other forms of debt, the cost of debt is a useful metric. It gives an idea as to the overall rate being paid by the company to use debt financing. This measure is also useful because it gives investors an idea as to the riskiness of the company compared with others. The higher the cost of debt, the higher the risk.

1. Cost of debt (before tax) = Corporate Bond rate of companyâs bond rating.

Pepsico 2.75% = 2.75%

Current cost of Debt as of February 17th 2014 = 2.75%

2. Current tax rate

In 2013 PepsiCoâs tax rate was = 23.66%

2013 PepsiCo averaged tax rate of 23.66%

3. Cost of Debt (After Tax) = (Cost of Debt Before Tax) (1 â Tax Rate)

The effective rate that a company pays on its current debt after tax.

.0275 x (1 â .2366) = Cost of debt after tax

The cost of debt after tax for PepsiCo is 2.10%

Cost of Equity or R Equity = Risk Free Rate + Beta Equity (Average Market Return â Risk Free Rate)

The cost of equity is the return a firm theoretically pays to its equity investors to compensate for the risk they undertake by investing in their company.

Risk Free Rate = U.S. 10-year bond = 2.74%

Average Market Return 1950 â 2014 = 7%

Beta = PepsiCoâs Beta = 0.37

Risk Free Rate + Beta Equity (Average Market Return â Risk Free Rate)

2.74 + 0.37 (7- 2.74)

2.74 + 0.37 x 4.26

2.74 + 1.58 = 4.31%

Currently, PepsiCoâs has a Cost of Equity or R Equity of 4.31%, so investors should expect to get a return of 4.31% per-year average over the long term on their investment to compensate for the risk they undertake by investing in this company.

Weighted Average Cost of Capital or WACC calculation

The WACC calculation is a calculation of a companyâs cost of capital in which each category of capital is equally weighted. All capital sources such as common stock, preferred stock, bonds and all other long-term debt are included in this calculation.

As the WACC of a firm increases, and the beta and rate of return on equity increases, this is an indicator of a decrease in valuation and a higher risk. By taking the weighted average, we can see how much interest the company has to pay for every dollar it finances. For this calculation, you will need to know the following listed below:

Tax Rate = 23.66%

Cost of Debt (before tax) or R debt = 2.75%

Cost of Equity or R equity = 4.31%

Debt (Total Liabilities) for 2013 TTM or D = $53.069 billion

Stock Price = $78.09 (Feb. 17th, 2014)

Outstanding Shares = 1.55 billion

Equity = Stock price x Outstanding Shares or E = $121.04 billion

Debt + Equity or D+E = $174.109 billion

WACC = R = (1 â Tax Rate) x R debt (D/D+E) + R equity (E/D+E)

(1 â Tax Rate) x R debt (D/D+E) + R equity (E/D+E)

(1 â .2366) x .0275 x ($53.069 /$174.109) + .0431 ($121.04 /$174.109)

.7634x .0275 x .3048 + .0431 x .6972

.0064 + .03

= 3.64%

Based on the calculations above, we can conclude that PepsiCo pays 3.64% on every dollar that it finances, or 3.64% cents on every dollar. From this calculation, we understand that on every dollar the company spends on an investment, the company must make $.0673 plus the cost of the investment for the investment to be feasible for the company.

Understanding the WACC of a company is important because securities analysts employ WACC all the time when valuing and selecting investments. In discounted cash flow analysis, for instance, WACC is used as the discount rate applied to future cash flows for deriving a businessâs net present value.

Investors use WACC as a tool to decide whether to invest. The WACC represents the minimum rate of return at which a company produces value for its investors. Letâs say a company produces a return of 20% and has a WACC of 11%. That means that for every dollar the company invests into capital, the company is creating nine cents of value. By contrast, if the companyâs return is less than WACC, the company is shedding value, which indicates that investors should put their money elsewhere.

1. Which of the following is true?

The corporation model can be used to value divisions and firms that do not pay dividends.
The discounted dividend model can be used to value divisions and firms that do not pay dividends.
For the discounted dividend model, a firm's weighted average cost of capital is used as the discount rate.
For the corporate valuation model, a firm's cost of equity is used as the discount rate.

Question 2.2. Which of the following is false?

For the constant growth model to hold, a firm's cost of equity needs to be smaller than its constant dividend growth rate (i.e., rs < g).
For the constant growth model to hold, a firm's cost of equity needs to be greater than its constant dividend growth rate (i.e., rs > g).
From the constant growth model, if the constant dividend growth rate is equal to zero, a firm's share price is equal to the constant dividend divided by the cost of equity (i.e., g=0).
If a company's constant dividend growth rate is negative, the formula for the constant growth model cannot be applied.

Question 3.3. From the discussion of a firm's capital budgeting problem in chapter 11, which of the following is false? (Points : 3.5)

The net present value method (NPV) assumes that cash flows are reinvested at the weighted average cost of capital (WACC).
The internal rate of return method (IRR) assumes that cash flows are reinvested at the internal rate of return.
The modified internal rate of return method (MIRR) assumes that cash flows are reinvested at the weighted average cost of cpaital.
For mutually exclusive projects, if there is a conflict between NPV and IRR, the project with the highest IRR is chosen.
The IRR is independent of a firm's weighted average cost of capital.

Question 4.4. Which of the following is true? (

As a firm's dividend payout ratio increases, the firm's WACC decreases.
The WACC only represents the "hurdle rate" for a typical project with average risk. Therefore, the project's WACC should be adjusted to reflect the project's risk.
Firms with riskier projects generally have a lower WACC.
Holding all else constant, an increase in the target debt ratio tends to lower the WACC.

Question 5.5. Which of the following is false?

If interest rates rise, the price of the bond will rise and its YTM (yield to maturity) will fall.
Short-term bond prices are less sensitive than long-term bond prices to interest rate changes.
Companies are not likely to call bonds unless interest rates have declined significantly. Thus, the call provision is valuable to firms but detrimental to long term investors.
On balance, bonds that have a sinking fund are regarded as being safer than those without such a provision.

Question 6.6. Which of the following is not true? (Points : 3.5)

According to SML (security market line), the risk premium on a high-beta stock would increase more than that on a low-beta stock.
If beta < 1.0, the security is less risky than average.
According to the Security Market Line (SML), in general, a companyâs expected return will double when its beta doubles.
According to the Security Market Line (SML), if a portfolio of real world stocks has a beta of zero, the required rate of return for the portfolio is equal to the risk-free rate.

Question 8.8. Which of the following is not the flaw (weakness) of the discounted payback method? (Points : 3.5)

It does not tells us by how much the project should increase shareholder wealth, or by how much a project yields over the cost of capital; it merely tells us when we recover our investment.
It ignores cash flows occurring after the payback period.
It ignores the time value of money, that is, dollars received in different years are all given the same weight.
