A bond selling to yield 8 percent after flotation costs, but prior to adjusting for the marginal corporate tax rate of 22 percent. In other words, 8 percent is the rate that equates the net proceeds from the bond with the present value of the future flows (principal and interest). B. A new common stock issue that paid a $1.50 dividend last year. The par value of the stock is $2, and the earnings per share have grown at a rate of 6.6 percent per year. This growth rate is expected to continue into the foreseeable future. The price of this stock is now $30, but 9 percent flotation costs are anticipated. C. A bond that has a $1,000 par value (face value) and a contract or coupon interest rate of 9 percent. A new issue would net the company 90 percent of the $1,125 market value. The bonds mature in 20 years, the firm’s tax rate is 24 percent. D. A preferred stock paying a 8 percent dividend on a $150 par value. If a new issue is offered, the company can expect to net $95 per share. E. Internal common equity where the current market price of the common stock is $38. The expected dividend this coming year should be $4, increasing thereafter at a 5.5 percent annual growth rate. This corporation’s tax rate is 24 percent.
