|
Valuing Preferred Stock:
|
= Dividends / Discount rate
|
|
Inventory Turnover:
|
Cost of Goods Sold
Inventory
|
|
Debt Ratio
|
= Total Debt
Total Assets
|
|
Bonds:
|
Vehicles by which corporations raise debt capital. They are primary means of borrowing money used in the present corporate world.
|
|
Prices Vs Yield
|
Inverse relationship between prices and yields.
If Interest rate ↑, price of existing bond falls
If Interest rate ↓, price of existing bond falls
|
|
Lower Dividend Ratio:
|
Lowering dividend payment decreases DFN as more income is retained within the company.
|
|
Dividends
|
Calculation:
Old RE + Net Income - New RE
|
|
Non Spontaneous Accounts:
|
Notes Payable
Long term financing accounts

Types of Leverage:
|
1. Operating Leverage
2. Financial Leverage
|
|
What do we call an equally-spaced sequence of equal cash flows?
|
annuity
|
|
Preferred Stock:
|
Hybrid Security, meaning it has some element of that resemble equity and others that resemble debt.
|
|
New Retained Earnings:
|
= Old Retained Earnings - Dividends
|
|
Discounted Cash Flow Method:
|
Discounted cash flow (DCF) analysis uses future free cash flow projections and discounts them (most often using the weighted average cost of capital) to arrive at a present value, which is used to evaluate the potential for investment.
T
Vfirm = ∑ FCFFt / (1+ WACC)t
t=1
|
|
Payback method:
|
Number of years required to recover the initial cash outlay.
Payback method is subject to
- reject a good project
-accept a bad project
Not a good method for capital budgeting
|
|
Two sources of Risk:
|
1. Operating (Business) risk: Variability associated with operating income
2. Financial Risk: Risk of distress or bankruptcy due to use of fixed cost financing
|
|
Evaluating cash flow (Cont):
|
Differential Cash Flows:
For each year of projects life, calculate
Incremental Revenue
- Incremental Costs
- Depreciation on project
= Incremental Earnings before Taxes (EBT)
- Tax on incremental EBT
Incremental Earnings after taxes (NI)
+ Depreciation reversal
= Annual Cash Flows
|
|
Profitablility Ratios:
|
ROA = Net Income / Total Asssets
ROE = Net Income / Total Equity
Gross Margin = Gross Profit / Sales
Net Margin = Net Income / Sales
|
|
Zeros:
|
Bond with no coupon payment i.e. no interest payment
|
|
Spontaneous Accounts
|
Accounts on the income statement and balance sheet that change automatically in proportion with sales.
Includes:
Most Current Assets
Accounts Payable
Accruals ( Accrued Wages, accrued taxes)
|
|
Current Assets
|
Cash or assets what will be converted into cash within the next year. Commonly current asset includes:
Cash
Marketable Securities
Accounts Receivable
Inventories
|
|
Coupon Rate:
|
Interest rate of the bond. Example: If 5% is coupon rate for a $1000 par value bond, bond will pay $ 50 interest every year.
|
|
CAPM formula:
|
R = Rf + ß(Km - Rf)
Where
R is the expected rate of return on a securityRf is the return rate of a "risk-free" investmentKm is the return rate of the appropriate asset class
|
|
Operating Leverage:
|
Operating Leverage is the use of fixed operating costs (rent, property tax, administrative salaries) as opposed to variable operating costs.
Firm with high fixed cost has high operating leverage.
|
|
Maturity:
|
The number of years from when the bond is issued to when it expires is its maturity.
|
|
Incremental Cash Flows:
|
Cash flows that result from accepting a project.
In short, Incremental cash flows are additional cash minus additional cash out when we are looking at the company as a whole.
|
|
The financial planning method in which accounts vary depending on a firm’s predicted sales level is called the _____ approach.
|
percentage of sales
|
|
Pro forma financial statements are:
|
projected accounting statements based on a sales forecast
|
|
Cost of Equity:
|
The annual rate of return that an investor expects to earn when investing in shares of a company is known as the cost of common equity.
|
|
Better ways for Capital Budgeting:
|
1. Net Present Value (NPV)
2. Internal Rate of Return (IRR)
|
|
Cash Flow from Operations:
|
Net Income
+ Non cash expense
( Depreciation and Amortization)
+ Decrease in current assets ( other than Cash)
- Increase in current assets ( other than Cash)
+ Increase in current liabilities ( other than notes payable)
- Decrease in current liablities ( other than notes payable)
= CFO
|
|
Risk and Acceptance:
|
Risk of the project should be properly evaluated. Firm can finally accept or reject the project based on NPV or IRR.
|
|
Yield to maturity:
|
Return on the bond if held till maturity and bond does not default
|
|
Two stage growth model:
|
Estimate cash flows of two different growth stages
Stage1 : Dividends grow at above-average rates
Stage 2: Dividends grow at the industry average rate
|
|
Statement of Cash Flows:
|
Cash flow from Operations
+ Cash flow from Investing
+ Cash flow from Financing
= Change in Cash
+ Beginning Cash
= End Cash
|
|
The cost of Debt:
|
Generally cost of debt is cheaper than debt.
After tax cost of Debt = Before tax cost of debt - tax savings
= Before tax cost of debt × (1- tax rate)
|
|
Example: Find the beta on a stock XYZ given that its expected return is 12%, the risk-free rate is 4%, and the expected return on the market portfolio is 10%.
|
Ans:
r = Rf + beta x (Km - Rf)
12% = 4% + beta x (10% - 4%)
Beta x = 12% - 4% / 10% - 4%
Beta x = 1.33
|
|
The dividend payout ratio is calculated as:
|
cash dividends divided by net income
|
|
When fixed assets on a pro forma statement are projected to increase at a rate equivalent to the projected rate of sales growth, it can be assumed that the firm is
|
operating at full capacity
|
|
Criteria for the ideal evalutation:
|
- includes all cash flows that occur during the life of the projects
- consider the time value of money
- incorporate the required rate of return
|
|
Degree of Combined Leverage (DCL) :
|
= DOL × DFL
OR
= (Sales - Variable Cost)/ (EBIT -1)
|
|
DOL Example:
|
If a firm has DOL of 1 then 1% change in sales will change EBIT by 1%.
Similarly, if DOL is 2, 1 % change in sales will change EBIT by 2%
|
|
The intrinsic value of an asset:
|
The present value of the stream of expected cash flows discounted at an appropriate required rate of return.
|
|
Total value of an asset :
|
The present value of the stream of expected cash flow discounted at the required rate of return
|
|
Why do we do financial forecasting?
|
To predict how much financing our firm will need in the future.
|
|
Internal Rate of Return (IRR) :
|
Rate of return that the firm earns on its capital projects
|
