3. Question : (TCO B) The Congress Company has identified two methods for producing playing cards. One
method involves using a machine having a fixed cost of $10,000 and variable costs of $1.00 per deck of cards. The
other method would use a less expensive machine (fixed cost = $5,000), but it would require greater variable costs
($1.50 per deck of cards). If the selling price per deck of cards will be the same under each method, at what level of
output will the two methods produce the same net operating income (EBIT)?
a. 5,000 decks
b. 10,000 decks
c. 15,000 decks

d. 20,000 decks
e. 25,000 decks
4. Question : (TCO B) Firm L has debt with a market value of $200,000 and a yield of nine percent. The firm's
equity has a market value of $300,000, its earnings are growing at a rate of five percent, and its tax rate is 40 percent.
A similar firm with no debt has a cost of equity of 12 percent. Under the MM extension with growth, what is Firm L's
cost of equity?
a. 11.4%

c. 12.6%
d. 13.3%

5. Question : (TCO A) Which of the following statements is CORRECT?
a. If the underlying stock does not pay a dividend, it makes good economic sense to exercise a call option as
soon as the stock’s price exceeds the strike price by about 10%, because this permits the option holder to
lock in an immediate profit.
b. Call options generally sell at a price less than their exercise value.
c. If a stock becomes riskier (more volatile), call options on the stock are likely to decline in value.
d. Call options generally sell at prices above their exercise value, but for an inthe-money option, the greater the
exercise value in relation to the strike price, the lower the premium on the option is likely to be.
e. Because of the put-call parity relationship, under equilibrium conditions a put option on a stock must sell at
exactly the same price as a call option on the stock.
6. Question : (TCO F) Suppose the December CBOT Treasury bond futures contract has a quoted price of 80-07.
What is the implied annual interest rate inherent in the futures contract? Assume this contract is based on a 20 year
Treasury bond with semi-annual interest payments. The face value of the bond is $1000, and the semi-annual coupon
payments are $30. The annual coupon rate on the bonds is $60 per bond (or 6%). The futures contract has 100 bonds.
a. 6.86%
b. 7.22%
c. 7.60%
d. 8.00%
e. 8.40%
