current assets.
d) The optimum capital structure for any organization is the one which has the least cost
of capital and hence maximizes the value of the firm.

investment is limited to the amount invested while the potential for profit is infinitely
large.

Q2. Calculate the cost of debt and equity in the following case and also the weighted average
cost of capital for the organization using book value weights. Equity share of face value
Rs10, is currently selling in the market at Rs70. The dividend expected to be paid in the next
year is Rs3 per share and dividend has been growing steadily at 8% for the last 6 years. Debt
is in the form of 14% debentures of Rs100 face value, issued at Rs95 per debenture to be
redeemed at Rs105, 5 years later. Tax rate applicable to this organisation is 30%. Total
balance sheet value of debentures is Rs35,00,000 and the equity value is Rs 60,00,000.

Q5. What is frequency of compounding and how does it relate to the Effective Interest Rate
(EIR)? Support your answer with a suitable example.
Ans: When interest is credited to the investor’s account more than once a year, we refer to
this as frequency of compounding. It can be credited once a quarter/month/in a six month
period.
Effective Interest Rate measures the impact of frequency of compounding and expresses it in
terms of interest rate.
EIR =[1+ r /m]m−1 e. g if an investment offers 12% p.a. to be compounded annually

Q6. An individual takes a home loan of Rs 20,00,000 at 8% p.a. for 5 years. He will be

rupee. How much would he have paid to the bank in 5 years if he paid in equal monthly
installments instead of annual installments?

Q8. You’ve been given an investment offer by two different insurance agents, agent X and
agent Y, for the initial investment of Rs 10,00,000. Agent X will give you Rs 1,50,000 each
year from years 3-8, Rs 1,00,000 each year from years 12-15 and Rs 3,00,000 in the 15 th year.
The offer of Agent Y is Rs 2,00,000 each year from year 1-6, Rs 1,50,000 each year from
years 10-12 and Rs 8,00,000 at the end of 20th year. Evaluate both the investment options
assuming discount rate of 8% per annum and recommend the best one for investment.
Ans. Investment option 1: (Agent X)
(150000xPVIFA8%,6xPVIF8%,2)+(100000xPVIFA8%,4xPVIF8%,11)+(300000xPVIF8%,15).
150000x4.623x0.857+100000x3.312x0.4289+300000x0.315.
594287+141754+94500=830541 594506+142051+94572=831129

Investment option 2: (Agent Y)


(200000xPVIFA8%,6)+(150000xPVIFA8%,3xPVIF8%,9)+(800000xPVIF8%,20).

200000x4.623+150000x2.577x.500+800000x0.215

924600+193275+172000 = 1289875 924576+193379+171639=1289594

Agent Y’s offer is better.
