Explanation:

a.)

Book value of debt is the debt amount in Jiminy's Cricket Farm's balance sheet on the liabilities section. Total book value of debt is calculated by be the summing up of the book values of the two bonds this company has.

Book value of 30 year bond = $135,000,000

Book value of the Zero-coupon bond = $65,000,000

Total book value of debt = $135 + $65 = $200,000,000

b.)

Total market value of debt will be the sum of market values of the two bonds this company has. It is calculated by multiplying the current price of the bond by the number of outstanding bonds.

market value = Price * number of bonds

30 year bond;

Number: 135,000,000/1000 = 135,000 bonds

Market value = 1.10 * 1000 *135,000 = $148,500,000

Zero-coupon bond;

Number: 65,000,000/1000 = 65,000 bonds

Market value = 0.643 * 1000 *65,000 = $41,795,000

Total market value of debt = $148,500,000 + $41,795,000 = $190,295,000

c.)

Aftertax cost of debt is the adjusted interest rate paid on debt because of the benefit of tax shield due to leverage. Since there are two bonds, find the average of the two rates to get after tax cost of debt.

You can find the Pretax cost of debt first. Using a financial calculator, input the following;

30 year bond;

N = 30*2 = 60

PV = -148,500,000

PMT = (6.3%/2)* $135,000,000 = 4,252,500

FV = $135,000,000

then compute semiannual rate; CPT I/Y = 2.804%

Convert to annual rate = 5.607% (this is the pretax cost of debt)

Zero-coupon bond;

N = 12

PV = -$41,795,000

PMT = 0

FV = $65,000,000

then CPT I/Y = 3.749% (this is the pretax cost of debt)

Next, find the average pretax cost of debt = (5.607% + 3.749%) /2 = 4.678%

After tax cost of debt = pretax cost of debt (1-tax)

After tax cost of debt = 4.678% (1-0.22) = 3.65%

Employees at a library check out books to patrons. books have an isbn and a name. the library sometimes has multiple copies of the same book. books have one or more authors. a patron is an individual who has an active (non-expired) library card. for each library card, we store the person's first and last names and their address. for each employee, we store their employee id, current salary, first and last name and their address. we also store the employee id of their current manager. each time we check out a book to a patron we need to store the date of the transaction, the employee who checked out the book to the patron, and the library card of the patron. some employees have library cards. if an employee patron turns in a book late, the fine that they pay is a percentage of their salary. some employees are authors who have library cards—they are allowed to check out as many books as they like.
