  8. FIN 515 Week 1 DQ 1 Accounting Versus Finance • Accounting Versus Finance (graded) Much of the analysis done by financial managers is based on numbers that are different from what would seem to the corresponding numbers presented in the financial statements. This difference is not due to any kind of cooking the books or other attempts to mislead anyone. One example is the use of market value rather than historical cost in the valuation of assets. What are some other examples of the differences between financial management and financial accounting?

  9. FIN 515 Week 1 DQ 2 Financial Analysis • Financial Analysis (graded) In this discussion, we will be working with the variety of financial analysis tools available to us. Let's start with the DuPont Identity introduced in Chapter 2 of the text. For your initial post, locate the financial statements for two firms in one industry. Calculate all four terms of the DuPont Identity and present the results but do not analyze the results. For an additional post, analyze the results that another student has posted. If you were the appropriate financial manager of one of the firms that you analyzed, what would be your observations and recommendations?

  10. FIN 515 Week 1 Problem Set • Chapter 1 The Corporation 1-1. What is the most important difference between a corporation and all other organizational forms? 1-2. What does the phrase limited liability mean in a corporate context? 1-3. Which organizational forms give their owners limited liability? 1-4. What are the main advantages and disadvantages of organizing a firm as a corporation? 1-5. Explain the difference between an S corporation and a C corporation. 1-6. You are a shareholder in a C corporation. The corporation earns $2 per share before taxes. Once it has paid taxes it will distribute the rest of its earnings to you as a dividend. The corporate tax rate is 40% and the personal tax rate on (both dividend and non-dividend) income is 30%. How much is left for you after all taxes are paid? 1-7. Repeat Problem 6 assuming the corporation is an S corporation. Chapter 2 Introduction to Financial Statement Analysis 2-8. In early 2009, General Electric (GE) had a book value of equity of $105 billion.

Pick a ratio for which a lower number typically would be preferred and describe a situation, in which a higher number for that ratio would be preferred, OR pick a ratio for which a higher number typically would be preferred and describe a situation in which a lower number for that ratio would be preferred. Question 2. (TCO G) As of December 31, 20XX, David Corp's accounts payable were $4,000,000. Its accounts receivable were $2,200,000, and its sales for 20XX were $32,000,000.

Question 3 (TCO G) Between December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2017, ROE at Bobcat Industries decreased even though sales increased.

Bank A has 100 loans outstanding, each for $1 million, that it expects will be repaid today. Each loan has a 5% probability of default, in which case the bank is not repaid anything. The chance of default is independent across all the loans. Bank B has only one loan of $100 million outstanding, which it also expects will be repaid today. It also has a 5% probability of not being repaid. Explain the difference between the type of risk each bank faces. Which bank faces less risk? Why?

  31. FIN 515 Week 6 Course Project 2 (2 Different Projects) • This Tutorial contains 2 Different Course Projects Second Project The purpose of this project is for you to have some practice working with financial concepts in the real world. This will involve integrating some material from throughout the course. The project will also involve the development of your own approach to doing the work. The project does not provide a step-by-step procedure for you to follow. Your task is to determine the WACC for a given firm using what you know about WACC as well as data you can find through research. Your deliverable is to be a brief report in which you state your determination of WACC, describe and justify how you determined the number, and provide relevant information as to the sources of your data. Assumptions As you recall, the formula for WACC is rWACC = (E/E+D) rE + D/(E+D) rD (1-TC) The formula for the required return on a given equity investment is ri= rf + βi * (RMkt-rf) RMkt-rf is the Market Risk Premium. For this project, you may assume the Market Risk Premium is 4% unless you can develop a better number. rf is the risk free rate. The YTM on 10 year US Treasury securities is a good approximation.
