If a 20% increase results in a price of $6.36, what was the price before?

$5.09 cents

Explanation:

Given the following question:

20% of 6.36

In order to find the answer, we will calculate using the formula for percentages then subtract that answer from the initial amount to have our answer.





Round:




Now subtract:



After a 20% decrease the price is now "$5.09 cents." Which means this was the price before the 20% increase.

Hope this helps.

Explanation:

1) Calculate AJC's current total market value and weighted average cost of capital

current market value = value of equity + value of debt

                      =  ( 10000 * $60 ) + $200000

                      =  $800000

Weighted average cost of capital = ( weight of equity * cost of equity ) + ( weight of debt * cost of debt * ( 1 - tax rate )

= (75% * 8.8% ) + (25% * 6% * 0.6  ) = 7.5%

2) what would be AJC's new WACC and total value

WACC =  ( weight of equity * cost of equity ) + ( weight of debt * cost of debt * ( 1 - tax rate )

= ( 60% * 9.5% ) + ( 40% * 7% * 0.6 )  = 7.38%

Total value of the firm =

= ( Cash flow after tax / WACC )

= (( 100000 * ( 1-40%)) / 7.38%

= 100000 * 0.6 / 7.38%   = $ 813,008.13

3) Calculate the new stock price per share

new stock price = ( value of equity + change in debt ) /  original number of outstanding shares

value of equity = weight of equity * firm value

change in debt =( weight of debt * firm value ) - initial debt value

Hence new stock price =

( 50% *$820000) + (( 50% * $820000)- $200000)) / 10000

= $62.00

4) calculate how many shares AJC  would repurchase in the recapitalization

= original shares - Remaining shares

= 10000 - 5250 = 4750 shares

while ;

Remaining shares = value of equity / stock price = $336000 / $64 = 5250

original shares = 10000
