Air Tampa has just been incorporated, and its board of directors is grappling with the question of optimal capital structure. The company plans to offer commuter air services between Tampa and smaller surrounding cities. Air Tampa believes it would have the same business risk as Jaxair, which is an airline that has been around for a few years and that has had zero growth. Jaxair's market-determined beta is 1.8, and it has a current market value debt ratio (total debt to total assets) of 45% and a federal-plus-state tax rate of 25%. Air Tampa expects to have investment tax credits when it begins business, which reduces its federal-plus-state tax rate to 15%. Air Tampa's owners expect that the total book and market value of the firm's stock, if it uses zero debt, would be $14 million. Air Tampa's CFO believes that the MM and Hamada formulas for the value of a levered firm and the levered firm's cost of capital should be used because zero growth is expected.

Required:
a. Estimate the beta of an unlevered firm in the commuter airline business based on Jaxair's market-determined beta.
b. Now assume that rd= rRF= 10% and that the market risk premium RPM for an unlevered commuter airline. 5%. Find the required rate of return on equity
c. Air Tampa is considering three capital structures: (1) $2 million debt, (2) $4 million debt, and (3) $6 million debt. Estimate Air Tampa's rs for these debt levels.

Monty loaned his friend Ned $24,000 three years ago. Ned signed a note and made payments on the loan. Last year, when the remaining balance was $18,000, Ned filed for bankruptcy and notified Monty that he would be unable to pay the balance on the loan. Monty treated the $18,000 as a nonbusiness bad debt. Last year, before considering the tax implications of the nonbusiness bad debt, Monty had capital gains of $7,200 and taxable income of $42,000. During the current year, Ned paid Monty $16,200 in satisfaction of the debt.
Determine Monty's tax treatment for the $16,200 received in the current year.
The nonbusiness bad debt of $18,000 would have been reported as a ________ , and $________ would be included in Monty's gross income.

Consider a firm with an EBIT of $559,000. The firm finances its assets with $1,090,000 debt (costing 6.4 percent) and 209,000 shares of stock selling at $15.00 per share. The firm is considering increasing its debt by $900,000, using the proceeds to buy back 84,000 shares of stock. The firm is in the 35 percent tax bracket. The change in capital structure will have no effect on the operations of the firm. Thus, EBIT will remain at $559,000. Calculate the EPS before AND after the change in capital structure and indicate changes in EPS. (Round your answers to 4 decimal places.) EPS before $ EPS after $ Difference $

Diving Fiasco. Mike, who owns a dive shop in the United States, decides to take a group of his customers diving in U.S. waters. Mike is aware that sharks occasionally visit the area where the divers will be visiting. He is also aware that while stingrays are usually tame, they can become aggressive when fed. Mike does not reveal that information to the group of divers going with him. The divers go down into the water, and some have squid with which to feed the stingrays. During the dive, one of the stingrays becomes agitated and latches onto diver Susie's arm. Susie is so disconcerted that she drops her regulator (her breathing device) from her mouth and is in considerable difficulty. Another diver, Billy, encounters a shark, which snaps at him. While the shark does not actually bite Billy, the attack results in damage to his diving equipment. Mike, who is in charge of the dive, does nothing to help and leaves the other divers to return to the boat because the dive turned out to be more trouble than expected. Wendy, another diver on the trip, also returns to the boat without doing anything to help the divers in distress. Sam, on the other hand, goes to rescue the divers who are in distress. He manages to do so but in the process he pulls his back and requires medical care. All divers are very unhappy with Mike. Billy and Susie are annoyed that Mike did not come to their assistance. Which is true regarding Mike's duty to provide assistance to them during the dive?
A) Mike had no duty to provide any assistance to them.
B) Mike had a duty to come to their aid because he arranged the dive and was charging them.

D) Mike had a duty to come to their assistance only if they were minors.
E) Mike had a duty to come to their assistance only if no one else did so.
