The Xeor supply company needs to increase its working capital Tk. 5.4 million. The following three financing alternatives are available (assume a 365 day year).i) Forgo cash discount (granted on a basis of 5/10, net 30) and pay on the final due date.ii) Borrow Tk. 6 million from a bank at 15 percent interest. This alternative would necessitate maintaining a 12 percent compensating balance.iii) Issue Tk. 5.7 million of six-month commercial paper to net Tk. 5.4 million. Assume that new paper would be issued every six months (Note: commercial paper has no stipulated interest rate. It is sold at a discount, and the amount of the discount determines the interest cost to the issuer.) Requirement: Assuming that the firm would prefer the flexibility of bank financing, provided theadditional cost of this flexibility was no more than 3 percent per annum, whichalternative should Xeor select? Why?
From Part A above, assume that the bank decided to give a loan of $ 59 million to Nivea Corporation (recorded for initial year). Nivea-Corporation invested the amount in a project and generated the following sequence of cash flows over six years: Year Cash Flow ($ million) 0 -59 1 4 2 5 3 6 4 7.33 5 8 6 8.25 Calculate the Net Present Value (NPV) and the Profitability Index (PI) over the six years. Assume interesr rate is 13% This project does not end after the sixth year but instead will generate cash flows far into the future. Estimate the project’s terminal value, assuming that cash flows after year 6 continue at $8.25 per year perpetuity and then recalculate the investment’s NPV. Calculate the terminal value assuming that cash flows after the sixth year grow at 2% annually in perpetuity, and then recalculate the NPV.
