EBIT = $320,000 + $80,000 = $400,000. TIE = $400,000/$80,000 = 5.0 times.

A Cyclical stocks are more volatile than the market in general, and thus have betas greater than 1.0. 34. E In the early stages of the industry life cycle, the firm is likely to be high in risk. 35. D decreasing the deficit lowers government borrowing, decreases the demand for funds and thus decreases the interest rates. 36. B Fundamentalists use all public information in an attempt to value stock (while hoping to identify undervalued securities). 37. B The cash flows from the stock discounted at the appropriate rate, based on the perceived riskiness of the stock, the market risk premium and the risk free rate, determine the intrinsic value of the stock. 38. D PV0 = D1/(k-g); given k and g are equal, the stock with the larger dividend will have the higher value. 39. A.10 = (32 - P + 1.25) / P;.10P = 32 - P + 1.25; 1.10P = 33.25; P = 30.23. 40. B k = 6% + [-0.25(14% - 6%)] = 4%; P = 8 / [.04 - (-.02)] = $133.33. 41. C

g = 13% X 0.5 = 6.5%;.5/(.12 -.065) = 9.09 42. C Calculations are shown in the table below. P 3 = $2.54(1.08) / (.11 -.08) = $91.44; PV of P 3 = $91.44/(1.08) 3 = $72.5880; P O = $4.94 + $72.59 = $77.53. 43. C All are correct except II - the stock's price equals the no-growth value per share plus the PVGO. 44. D 17.82% = 0.625 X 0.9 X 8% X asset turnover X 1.2; asset turnover = 3.3. 45. D ROE = 0.6 X 0.6 X 4% X 2.5 X 2 = 7.2%. 46. C Total debt includes both current and long term debt; the above relationships could occur only if FOX Company has a higher than average level of current liabilities. 47.

V5 = (1 + k) $199.07 = 1.15 V0 = 5 5 $98.97 b. The price should rise by 15% per year until year 6: because there is no dividend, the entire return must be in capital gains. c. The payout ratio would have no effect on intrinsic value because ROE = k.
