Q
Cash Conversion Cycle calculations
A
[2-4] Cash conv cycle (pay $ to profits) EQUALS (want as LOW as possible) [1-3] Inv conv period (receive to sell) [3-4] A/R Collections [1-2] LESS: A/P deferral
6

A
Sec 1-3 (positive)
Receive goods to selling goods
Calc: Avg inv / COGS per day
7

Calc: Avg Payables / Purchases per day
9
Q
2 / 10 net 30
A
[2 / 98] x [360 / 20]
2 x 18 = 36% int
10
Q
When dealing with cash mgmt, the time from when goods are paid for and A/R is collected is:
- A/R collection period
- Inventory conversion period
- A/P deferral period
- Cash conversion cycle
A
-Cash conversion cycle
Sec 2-4
11
Q
If Inventory conversion period is 60 days, A/R collection period is 25 days, A/P deferral period is 29 days, how long is the cash conversion cycle?
A
56 Days
60 + 25 - 29 = 56
12
Q
Which is not included in the Cash conversion cycle?
- Inventory conversion period
- A/R collection period
- Payables deferral period
- Cash discount period
A
Cash discount period
This is included as part of Average collection period but not as a separate entity
13
Q
Lock-box system
A
Customers send payments directly to bank to speed up deposits and increase internal control over cash (reduces check processing float)
14
Q
Concentration Banking
A
Customers pay local branches instead of main office so the busin gets funds more quickly reducing float
15
Q
2 / 10 net 30 breakdown
A
2% discount if you pay within 10 days
30 days to pay otherwise
16
Q
What do do with A/R?
A
Pledging: pledge as collateral for loan
Assignment: payer pays 3rd party, not you, for $ upfront
Factor: w/ recourse: contingent liab, have risk of loss if consumer doesn’t pay
w/o recourse: outright sale, get less $, but no risk of loss
17
Q
A/R Turnover
A
Net credit sales / Avg AR
18
Q
Avg A/R
A
(Beg + End A/R) / 2
19
Q
days sales in avg A/R
A
360 / A/R turnover
20
Q
Inventory should be at (cost)
A
Lower of cost or market
21
Q
Economic Order Quantity
A
Decides appropriate quantity to order per order: SQRT[(2 x A x P) / S] A=annual usage of inv [annual demand] P=cost of placing order S=cost of storing a single unit for a yr
22
Q
Reorder Point
A
# w/o safety stock = Avg Daily Demand x Avg Lead time (order to rec time) Just add safety stock to end amount if you want total
23
Q
Just in time (JIT)
A
- Order as needed for production
- To lower nonvalue-added costs
- should have low lead times, so many small orders that are received quickly
24
Q
Backflush approach
A
- Lower tracking of goods (no WIP/FG, immediately expense as COGS)
- Expect little to no ending inventory
25
Inventory Turnover
COGS / Avg inv
26
of days supply in avg inv
360 / Inv Turnover
27
Which effect would a lockbox system have on receivables management?
- Minimize collection float
- Maximize collection float
- Minimize disbursement float
- Maximize disbursement float
-Minimize collection float
| Reduces float = makes collection faster
28
```
Which is used in computing reorder point for inventory?
(pick 2)
I. Cost
II. Usage per day
III. Lead time
```
II. Usage per day AND III. Lead time
| (Avg daily demand x lead time) = Reorder point w/o safety stock
29
To determine inventory reorder point calculations normally include:
- Ordering cost
- Carrying cost
- Avg daily use
- Economic order quantity
Avg daily use
30
Sell 45,000 units in a year, safety stock desired is 1,250 units, avg cost per order $24, cost of carrying a unit is $6. What is the economic order quantity?
600 units
SQRT[2 x 45000 x 24) / 6]
SQRT[36000] = 600
31
Ordinary Annuity
Due in arrears. O = A vowels
| Get at end of month, year, etc
32
Annuity due
"in advance". D = B consonants
| Due at beginning, ex rent (due on first)
33
Ordinary annuity to annuity due
Add $1 and 1 year (or reverse for opposite)
EX) Ordinary: 2yr, 6% = 1.833
Due: 3yr, 6% = 2.833
34
Payback Period
[Initial investment / after tax inflows] = # years
Time to recover investment
Pro: easy, shows $ flow, year limit
Con: no TVMoney, no profitability
35
Internal Rate of Return (IRR)
[Investment / annual $ flows] = PV Factor
Find % rate that corresponds to it
Sames as Payback period formula
The disc rate when NPV=0
Pro: easy, TVM; Con: no unique IRR, estimated
36
Accounting Rate of Return (ROI)
[Increase in Acct income ($ flow less depr) / Avg investment] = ROI
Appx rate of return, net of acct exps
Pro: uses acct income
Con: no TVM, no $ flows
37
Net present value (NPV)
PV of inflows - PV of outflows [aka investment]
+ is good, - is bad
Excess of net PV over/under hurdle rate
Pro: TVM, risk, profitability
Con: may not actually follow investments, difficult

39
Which is correct about the payback method as a capital budgeting technique?
- It considers time value of money
- It indicates if a project will be profitable
- It indicates the years needed to recoup an investment
- It is calculated by dividing annual inflows by the net investment
-It indicates the years needed to recoup an investment
| Investment / cash flows
40
Annual financing costs (aka 2/10 net 30)
[Discount % / (100% - disc %)] x [360 / (total pay period - disc period)]
ex) 2/98 x 360/20 = 36.7%
41
Annual financing costs for 3/15 net 45
3/97 x 360/30 = 37.1%
42
Compensating Balance
Effective rate = [int paid / (principal - compensating bal)]
43
Company has a 1-year bank loan of $500k @ 8% interest, but requires a 20% compensating balance. What is the effective interest rate?
10%
(500k*8%) / (500k - 100k)
40k / 400k = 10%
44
Client is taking terms of: 3/10 net 30, on a purchase. What would not taking the discount cost them? (as a percent)
55.67%
| 3/97 x 360/20 = 55.67%
45
A Co. offers "2/10 net 30" to its customers. 60% take the discount and pay early, the remainder pay within 30 days. How many days' sales are in their A/R account?
- 6
- 12
- 18
- 20
```
18
Basically avg time to collect receivables
60% x 10 = 6
40% x 30 = 12
6 +12 =18
```
46
Prime Rate, ex prime plus 2%
Variable rate that is an index for what the bank charges their best customers
47
LIBOR (int rate)
For US to abroad or "abroad to abroad" loans
48
Public vs Private Debt
Public debt - fixed int, resold in public mkts (bonds)
| Private debt- var int, loans from banks
49
Bonds: stated vs effective rate
Stated effective = premium
50
Debenture bond
No security, no collateral
51
Term vs Serial bonds
Term (normal bond) pays lump sum owed at maturity
| Serial fraction of face is paid in installments throughout life
52
Redeemable vs Callable Bonds
Redeemable- you can return them if company does something risky that was discussed in the contract (buyout of another firm)
Callable- company can take them back at any time
53
Stated interest rate synonyms
Stated, face, nominal, coupon
54
Current yield
Annual int paid / issue price of bond
ex) $1k bond, 12% int, issued for $900
(1k x 12%) -> 120 / 900 = 13.33%
55
Debt Financing
Pro: Tax deductible, fixed obligation, no loss of control
Con: must be paid, covenants, how debt makes company look, increases cost of borrowing (credit score)
56
Leases
Lessor: operating "true rental", non-operating
Lessee: operating lease, capital lease (looks like a rental but end result is purchase)
57
What is the primary reason a company would agree to a debt covenant limiting the percent of their LT debt?
- To cause the company's stock to rise
- To lower the bond rating
- To lower risk for current bondholders
- To reduce the interest rate on the bond being sold
-To reduce the interest rate on the bond being sold
MAIN REASON
You're lowering the risk so: Less risk = less interest
58
The benefit of debt financing over equity financing is highest in:
- High marginal tax rate, few non-interest benefits
- Low marginal tax rate, few non-interest benefits
- High marginal tax rate, many non-interest benefits
- Low marginal tax rate, many non-interest benefits
-High marginal tax rate, few non-interest benefits
Debt is tax deductible, higher rate = bigger deduction. And if there are fewer other benefits, interest would be more beneficial
59
The capital structure of a firm includes bonds with: coupon rate of 12%, effective int 14%, corp tax 30%. What is the net cost of debt?
9.8%
Use 14% to figure out what its costing me, true int exp (cuz of discount plus int)
14(1 - .3) = 9.8%
60
Equity Financing
Pro: Dividends not liab until declared, no obligation to pay, higher equity = lower risk, makes investors happy when company does well
Con: costly to put out, lose ownership/control, not tax deductible, shares profits
61
Preferred vs Common
Cumulative dividends, liquidation value, redeemablility/ callablility, doesn't vote
62
Operating Leverage
How fixed costs affects performance with changes in revenue
DOL = (% change in EBIT) / (% change in sales volume)
High DOL = high fixed costs, but higher proportionary increase in profitability
63
Financial Leverage
How much a corp relies on debt financing, looks at interest cost
High debt = higher int = higher risk = HIGH COST
DFL = (% change in EPShare) / (% change in EBIT)
64
Cost of Debt
[Yield aka Effective rate] x (1 - tax rate)
65
Cost of Preferred Stock
[Dividend aka par x # shares] / [Net issue price] = %
66
Cost of Existing Common Stock: CAPM
CAPM, measures volatility of stock relative to avg stocks
CAPM = Risk free rate + [(expect mkt rate - risk free) x Beta]
Beta is avg=1, low risk= 1
67
Cost of Existing C/S: Dividend Yield plus growth
(Next expected divid / current stock price) + expected growth in earnings [%]
68
Cost of NEW C/S
(Next expected divid / current stock price - flotation costs) + expected growth in earnings [%]
69
Weighted Avg Cost of Capital (WACC)
Cost to issue equity/debt, want to keep low
(% of total capital x effective cost % [less tax rate for debt])
Do this formula for each piece and sum
70
B Co. needs funds without fixed charges, fixed maturity date, and an increase in the credit-worthiness of the company. Which should B Co use?
- Bonds
- Common Stock
- LT Debt
- ST Debt
-Common Stock
| C/S is not fixed and helps credit-worthiness (lowers risk)
71
Which is correct about WACC?
- A co. should try to reduce WACC
- A co. with a high WACC is attractive
- An increase in WACC increases value
- WACC equals the borrowing rate
-A co. should try to reduce WACC
| Lower WACC equals lower costs
72
```
30% tax rate with the following capital structure:
40% weight, bond, 10% cost
50% weight, C/S, 10% cost
10% weight, P/S, 20% cost
WACC after tax?
```
```
9.8%
40 x 10 x .7 = .028
50 x 10 = .05
10 x 20 = .02
Sum = 9.8%
```
73
Sold 9% preferred stock, for $40 a share, with a par of $20, cost of issuing was $5. What is the cost of preferred stock?
5.1%
(9% x 20) / (40 - 5)
1.8 / 35 = 5.1%
74
Stock is selling for $85 per share, next expected dividend $4.25, expected growth of 7%, corp tax of 30%. What % represents the cost of common stock?
12%
(4.25 / 85) + 7%
5% + 7% = 12%
75
Asset and Liability Valuation
Actual Price- compare $ to identical assets recently sold
Similar price- comparable asset, base on sq foot etc but not everything is matched/the same
Valuation model- not comparable, base on future cash flows, use equations to see growth
76
Vertical vs Horizontal Merger
Vertical - same supply chain, supplier and customer
Horizontal - same line of business (competitor)
Conglomerate- 2 random businesses
77
Gross Margin
Gross profit / Net sales
78
DuPont ROI
ROI = Return on sales x Asset Turnover
RoS = NI / Sales
Asset Turnover = Sales / Avg assets
79
3.19 lots of ratios
3.19 has ratios
80
What would increase a quick ratio?
- Purchase inventory with a long term note
- Implement procedures to collect A/R faster
- Pay an existing A/P
- Sell obsolete inventory at a loss
Sell obsolete inventory at a loss
| Inventory isn't included in the quick ratio, but you receive cash so it improves it
81
Beg Inv: 17k, Purchases: 56k, End inv: 13k
| What is inventory turnover?
```
4.0
COGS / Avg Inv
17 + 56 = 73 Goods avail for sale
73 - 13 = 60 COGS
60 / (17+13 /2) = 4.0
```
82
Cash 5k, A/R 10k, Inv 20k, A/P 15k, Short term note 5k, LT note 35k. What is the acid test ratio?
.75
Cash, AR, AP, ST note
(5 + 10) / (15 + 5) = 15 /20 = .75
83
Inventory Turnover
COGS / Avg Inv
| COGS = Beg + Purch - End
