博迪《金融学》第2版课章节练习及详解(期权市场与或有索取权市场)【圣才出品】

博迪《金融学》第2版课章节练习及详解第15章期权市场与或有索取权市场一、概念题1.欧式期权(华南理工大学2011金融硕士)答:按照买方执行期权时对行权时间规定的不同,可以将期权分为美式期权和欧式期权。
其中,欧式期权是指买入期权的一方必须在期权到期日当天才能行使的期权。
期权买方在期权合约到期日之前不能行使权利,在到期日之后期权作废,买方权利随之消失。
欧式期权合约给持有者较小的行使期权选择的机会,缺乏灵活性,因而期权费也相对较低。
2.金融期权(东南大学2012金融硕士;东北师范大学2005研;人大2001研;武汉理工大学2006研)答:金融期权是期权交易中,买卖双方参与交易时签订的合同,规定了买卖双方并不对称的权利和义务。
一般根据合约规定,合约卖方在买方执行期权时,有义务必须履行合约规定,具有强制性,而合约买方有权利选择是否执行、转售、放弃期权,不具有强制性,但为了取得这一权利,买方需要支付一定的期权费。
期权合约的内容主要包括:(1)期权的类型,即选择美式期权还是欧式期权,确定在到期日前能不能交割;(2)交易的金融资产或商品的种类、数量,种类包括股票、国债、商品和指数等等;(3)保证金比率的规定,一般只需卖方缴纳;(4)期权的期限和到期日,期权合约的有效期限一般为3个月,到期日为该月的第三个星期六;(5)协定价格与期权费。
此外,期权合约还涉及交易时间、交易方法、货币选择、结算、价格波动幅度等方面的内容。
3.看涨期权与看跌期权(东北财大2006研;人行1995研)答:根据买卖行为的不同,期权可分为看涨期权和看跌期权。
看涨期权,又称“买方期权”、“买权”、“敲进”,它赋予买方一种权利,在期权合约到期日或有效期间内可以按照执行价格买进一定数量标的物。
当人们预测标的物市场价格有上涨趋势时,购买这种期权,若该金融资产或商品市场价格超过协定价格,买方会行使期权,以协定价格买入合约标的物,再以市场价格卖出,当差价超过期权费,买方获利。
金融学原理(英文)第二单元课后答案

⾦融学原理(英⽂)第⼆单元课后答案CHAPTER 2ANSWERS2-1 a. 0 Bonds and term loans are equivalent debt instruments and should have about the same interest rate.b. + Debentures are riskier than mortgage bonds and, hence, wouldrequire a higher interest rate.c. - This would allow bondholders to reap the benefits of a stock priceincrease, so they would accept a lower interest rate.d. (1) + Because the debentures will be subordinated to its bank debt,the debentures will have a higher interest rate.(2) - Because the debentures will be subordinated to the bank debt,the bank debt will have a lower interest rate.(3) 0 The net effect of (1) and (2) is indeterminant.e. + Because income bonds are riskier, they would carry a higher rateof interest.f. (1) - The more of the property that is mortgaged the weaker the claimof the debenture holders. Thus, going from $75 million to $50million of first mortgage debt will strengthen the debenturesand lower their interest rate.(2) - The property will have a smaller mortgage; hence, eachindividual first mortgage bond will be better secured, lessrisky, and have a lower interest rate.(3) 0 Debentures will cost less, as will mortgage bonds, but theaverage cost probably will be about the same--at least, itis not obvious that the cost will be higher or lower. Thisoccurs because the rate on the mortgage bonds is lower thanthat on debentures, but the weights are shifting toward theriskier, higher rate debentures.g. + A call provision increases the risk to the bondholders, so ahigher rate would be required.h. - The sinking fund calls for repayment over the life of the bond.This lowers somewhat the risk of the issue, hence leads to lowerrates.i. + This would raise the interest rate because a lower rating impliesgreater risk.2-2 Safety Rank⽂档收集⾃⽹络,仅⽤于个⼈学习a.

Subordinated debentures--callable 7h. Amortized term loan 4I. Term loan 52-3 From the corporation's viewpoint, one important factor in establishinga sinking fund is that its own bonds generally have a higher yield thando government bonds; hence, the company saves more interest by retiring its own bonds than it could earn by buying government bonds. This factor causes firms to favor the second procedure. Investors also would prefer the annual retirement procedure if they thought that interest rates were more likely to rise than to fall, but they would prefer the government bond purchases program if they thought rates were likely to fall. Inaddition, bondholders recognize that, under the government bond purchase scheme, each bondholder would be entitled to a given amount of cash from the liquidation of the sinking fund if the firm should go into default, whereas under the annual retirement plan, some of the holders would receivea cash benefit while others would benefit only indirectly from the factthat there would be fewer bonds outstanding.On balance, investors seem to have little reason for choosing one method over the other, while the annual retirement method is clearly more beneficial to the firm. The consequence has been a pronounced trend toward annual retirement and away from the accumulation scheme.2-4 ($ million)Common stock (42 million shares outstandingAt $1 par) = $40 + $2 $ 42 Additional paid-in capital = $120 + $48 168Retained earnings 170Total common stockholders' equity $380⽂档收集⾃⽹络,Total value of the issue = 2 million shares ? $25 = $50 million Added to Common stock account = 2 million shares ? $1 par = $2 millionAdded to Additional paid-in capital account = $50 million - $2 million= $48 million2-5 a. The average investor in a listed firm is not really interested in maintaining his or her proportionate share of ownership and control.An investor could increase ownership by simply buying more stock onthe open market. Consequently, most investors are not concerned withwhether new shares are sold directly (at about market prices) orthrough rights offerings. However, if a rights offering is being usedto effect a stock split, or if it is being used to reduce theunderwriting cost of an issue (by substantial underpricing), thepreemptive right might well be beneficial to the firm and itsstockholders.b. Clearly, the preemptive right is important to the stockholders ofclosely-held firms whose owners are interested in maintaining theirrelative control positions.2-6 Preferred stock can be classified only when the one doing the classifica-tion is considered. From the standpoint of the firm, preferred stock is like equity in that it cannot force the firm into bankruptcy, but it is like debt in that it causes fluctuations in earnings available to the common stockholders. Consequently, if the firm is concerned primarily with survival, it probably would classify preferred stock as equity. However, if there is essentially no danger of bankruptcy, management would view preferred stock as simply another fixed charge security and treat it internally as debt. Equity investors would have a similar viewpoint, and in general they should treat preferred stock in much the same manner as debt. For creditors, the position is reversed. They take preference over preferred stockholders, and the preferred issues act as a cushion. Conse-quently, a bond analyst probably would want to treat preferred as equity.Obviously, in all these applications, there would have to be some qualifi-cations; in a strict sense, preferred stock is neither debt nor equity, but a hybrid.2-7 When the price of its stock is temporarily depressed and a firm wishes to raise funds via an equity issue, the company’s investment banker probably will recommend convertible debt be issued. The firm can use convertible bonds if it is believed that the price of the stock will rise sufficiently in the future to make conversion attractive. Then, if conversion takes place when the stock price is higher, the firm will have essentially issued its stock at a price higher than existed when the convertible bond was issued.2-8 The convertible bond has an expected return that consists of an interest yield (9 percent) plus an expected capital gain. We know the expectedcapital gain must be at least 3 percent, because the total expected returnon the convertible must be at least equal to that on the nonconvertiblebond, 12 percent. In all likelihood, the expected return on the conver-tible would be higher than that on the straight bond, because a capitalgains yield is riskier than an interest yield. The convertible would,therefore, probably be regarded as being riskier than the straight bond.However, the convertible, with its interest yield, probably would beregarded as being less risky than common stock.────────────────────────────────────────────────────────SOLUTIONS2-1 a. Most firms have a continuing need for long-term debt to finance operations (at least as long as they are still in business). It would make sense fora firm to issue bonds like the Canadian bonds. If you think about it, themost significant difference between a 30—year bond and a perpetual bondthat is callable is that there is a refinancing requirement for the regularbond at the end of 30 years. This refinancing requirement probably willchange the cost of the bond, because refinancing takes place at existingThe default risk will be negligible for each bond. The interest rate risk, however, will be greatest for the bond with the longest term to maturity.As a result, the perpetual bonds’ interest rate risk will be greaterthan for the 5-year bond (which will have the lowest interest rate risk)and the 50-year bond. Because the Canadian bond will be called onlyif interest rates decline, it is considered the riskiest, and thus willhave the highest expected interest rate. The order of the expectedinterest rate from lowest to highest would be:5-year bond50-year bondregular perpetual bondCanadian perpetual bondProbably not. If rates had dropped so that bonds with a coupon rate equal to 3 percent could besold, the Canadian government probably would have issued the 3-percent bonds to replace themore expensive bonds.If the information bondholders used to reach their conclusion that the bonds would be called wasunfounded, then there should be no reason to expect the Canadian government to foot the bill forinvestors’mistakes. At the same time, some might argue that the Canadian government has amoral obligation to ensure that any false information that it knows about is not passed on toinvestors. If the Canadian government originally sold the bonds to na?ve investors and hadsomehow led them to think that the bonds would be called, the fairness might indicate thatretirement is appropriate. But, if you think about it, the original investors probably sold the bondsmany years ago, so there no longer would be such an obligation to them. Educated investors shouldknow that the government would not call the bonds when the interest rates were so high--in effect,the government would be wasting constituents’ money.2-2 a. Number of zeros = Amount needed/Price per bond= $4,500,000/$567.447,931 bonds.b. In five years, Filkins will have to repay $4.5 million when the bondmatures. But, because the debt is a zero-coupon bond, there will nointerest payments in the meantime. Thus, the annual debt service costsare $0.2-3 a. Balance sheets:Meyer Balance Sheet ($ thousands):Debt $400Total liabilitiesTotal assets $600 and equity $600Debt $200Equity 400 Total liabilities Total assets $600 and equity $600b. purchase the new machine. Therefore, because the stock issue increased the number of existing shares by 20 percent, the number of shares Haugen had outstanding before the issue was Thus, the number of shares that are outstanding after the stock issue equal 24,000.c.Income Statement for Meyer Manufacturing ($ thousands):ΔEBIT $100.0 ΔInterest = $200 ? 0.08 ( 16.0) ΔEarnings before taxes 84.0 ΔTaxes (40%) ( 33.6) ΔNet income (earnings available to pay to common stockholders) $ 50.4 ΔEBIT $100.0ΔInterest = $0 ? 0.08 ( 0.0) ΔEarnings before taxes 100.0 ΔTaxes (40%) ( 40.0) ΔNet income (earnings available to pay to common stockholders $ 60.0 d.Meyer issued bonds, not stock, so it of common stock outstanding. Therefore, Meyer ’s earnings per share, EPS, is Haugen issued stock and its shares outstanding increased to 24,000. Therefore, Haugen ’s earnings per share, EPS, is If we use the EPS to evaluate both companies, we would conclude Meyer ’s decision to issue debt was better than Haugen ’s decision to issue stock. We will discuss this concept further in later chapters in the book.2-4 a.The conversion price simply is the face (par) value of the bond divided by the conversion ratio--the conversion price for this issue is $1,000/25 = $40. Therefore, it would be beneficial for investors to convert their bonds into common stock when the price of the stock is greater than $40 per share.b.The conversion feature would add some flexibility to the bonds as an investment. Investors might find it attractive to buy the bonds because they can later decide whether they prefer to remain bondholders or to convert and become stockholders.2-5 a.Cox Computer Company Balance Sheet: Alternative 1:Short-term debt $ 25,000Long-term debt 25,000Common stock, par $1 75,000*Paid-in capital 225,000* Retained earnings 25,000 Total liabilities Total assets $375,000 and equity $375,000⽂档收集⾃⽹*At $10 per share, $250,000/$10 = 25,000 shares would have to be soldto raise the $250,000. Therefore, at $1 par value, the Common stockaccount will increase by $1 ? 25,000 = $25,000, and the remaining$225,000 is Paid-in capital. Because $150,000 is used to pay some ofthe bank debt, assets increase by only $100,000.

If P0 = $13, the option is exercised, and the stock is soldimmediately, the loss would be ($13 - $15) ?100 = -$200. Therefore,it would not be beneficial to exercise the option.c. The answers in part (a) and part (b) would be reversed if theoption was a put with the same exercise price:If P0 = $18, the put option is exercised, and the stock is soldimmediately, the loss would be ($15 - $18) ? 100 = -$300. Theoption holder would have to buy the stock at $18 per share toexercise the put and sell the stock at $15 to the option writer.Therefore, it would not be beneficial to exercise the option.If P0 = $13, the put option is exercised, and the stock is soldimmediately, the gain would be ($15 - $13) ?100 = $200. In thiscase, the option holder would be able to buy the stock at $13per share and then sell it to the option writer at $15 byexercising the option. Therefore, it would be beneficial toexercise the option.2-8 a. Today, the amount Fibertech has to pay today is known with certainty because the current exchange rate is known. In otherwords, if Fibertech decides to pay the bill today, it needs$4,215,000 to purchase 7,500,000 deutschemarks. However, ifFibertech waits to pay the bill when it is due in 90 days, theexchange rate might be different and thus the company mighthave to pay more than $4,215,000 to purchase the 7,500,000deutschemarks (it also might be able to pay less). The primaryadvantage to waiting to pay the bill is that Fibertech can usethe funds for other purposes. In addition, it can avoid thehigh cost of borrowing funds to pay the bill today.b. Cost to Fibertech = 7,500,000 ?$0.567 = $4,252,500 in 90 dayswhen the bill is due.c. At $0.60 per mark, the cost to purchase the neededdeutschemarks would be:7,500,000 ? $0.60 = $4,500,000At $0.54 per mark, the cost to purchase the neededdeutschemarks would be:7,500,000 ? $0.54 = $4,050,000d. The primary benefit Fibertech would receive by entering afutures contract is that it would be able to “lock in” todaythe price of the deutschemarks needed in 90 days. For example,if the futures contract in part (b) was entered, then Fibertechknow it needs $4,252,500 in 90 days to pay the debt it owesthe German manufacturer, regardless of what the actualexchange rate is at that time--the futures contract has “lockedin” the price today.2-9 The solution is given in the Instructor’s Manual, Solutions to Integrative Problems.版权申明本⽂部分内容,包括⽂字、图⽚、以及设计等在⽹上搜集整理。
博迪《金融学》第2版课章节练习及详解(投资组合机会和选择)【圣才出品】

博迪《金融学》第2版课章节练习及详解第12章投资组合机会和选择一、概念题1.有效组合(efficient portfolio)(中央财大2012金融硕士;上海财大2000研)答:有效组合指在期望收益率一定时其风险(即标准差)最低的证券组合,或者指在风险一定时其期望收益率最高的证券组合。
有效边界上的点对应的证券组合也称为有效组合。
图12-1有效边界具体来讲,在所有可行的投资组合中,如果证券组合的特征由期望收益率和收益率方差来表示,则投资者需要在E-δ坐标系中的可行域中寻找最好的点,但不可能在可行域中找到一点被所有投资者都认为是最好的。
按照投资者的共同偏好规则,可以排除那些被所有投资者都认为差的组合,排除后余下的这些组合就是有效证券组合。
根据有效组合的定义,有效组合不止一个,描绘在可行域的图形中,如图粗实线部分它是可行域的上边界部分,也即有效边界ABC曲线段(图12-1)。
对于可行域内部及下边界上的任意可行组合,均可以在有效边界上找到一个有效组合比它好。
但有效边界上的不同组合,比如B和C,按共同偏好规则不能区分好差。
因而有效组合相当于有可能被某位投资者选作最佳组合的候选组合,不同投资者可以在有效边界上获得任一位置。
作为一个理性投资者,且厌恶风险,则他不会选择有效边界以外的点。
此外,A点是一个特殊的位置,它是上边界和下边界的交汇点,这一点所代表的组合在所有可行组合中方差最小,因而被称作最小方差组合。
2.市场证券组合(market portfolio)(上海财大2002研)答:市场证券组合指个人或机构投资者所持有的各种与整个资本市场的构成完全相同的有价证券组合的总称,通常包括各种类型的债券、股票及存款单等。
证券组合的分类通常以组合的投资目标为标准。
证券组合按不同标准可以分为避税型、收入型、增长型、收入和增长混合型、货币市场型、国际型及指数化型等。
投资者构建证券组合的原因主要有:①降低风险。
资产组合理论证明,证券组合的风险随着组合所包含证券数量的增加而降低,资产间关联性极低的多元化证券组合可以有效地降低非系统风险。

金融学第二版课后答案英文版中国人民大学Bodie2_IM_Ch01CHAPTER 1 – Financial EconomicsEnd-of-Chapter ProblemsDefining Finance1. What are your main goals in life? How does finance play a part in achieving those goals? What are the major tradeoffs you face?SAMPLE ANSWER:Finish schoolGet good paying job which I likeGet married and have childrenOwn my own homeProvide for familyPay for children’s educationRetireHow Finance Plays a Role:SAMPLE ANSWER:Finance helps me pay for undergraduate and graduate education and helps me decide whether spending the money on graduate education will be a good investment decision or not.Higher education should enhance my earning power and ability to obtain a job I like.Once I am married and have children I will have additional financial responsibilities (dependents) and I will have to learn how to allocate resources among individuals in the household and learn how to set aside enough money to pay for emergencies, education, vacations etc. Finance also helps me understand how to manage risks such as for disability, life and health.Finance helps me determine whether the home I want to buyis a good value or not. The study of finance also helps me determine the cheapest source of financing for the purchase of that home.Finance helps me determine how much money I will have to save in order to pay for my children’s education as well as my own retirement.Major Tradeoffs:SAMPLE ANSWERSpend money now by going to college (and possibly graduate school) but presumably make more money once I graduate due to my higher education.Consume now and have less money saved for future expenditures such as for a house and/or car or save more money now but consume less than some of my friendsFinancial Decisions of Households2. What is your net worth? What have you included among your assets and your liabilities? Would you list the value of your potential lifetime earning power as an asset or liability? How does it compare in value to other assets you have listed?SAMPLE ANSWER:$ ____________ (very possibly negative at this point)Assets:Checking account balanceSavings account balanceFurniture/Jewelry (watch)Car (possibly)Liabilities:Student loansCredit card balanceIf renting, remainder of rental agreement (unless sublettingis a possibility)Car payments (possibly)Students typically don’t think about the high value of their potential lifetime earning power when calculating their net worth but for young people it is often their most valuable asset.3. How are the financial decisions faced by a single person living alone different from those faced by the head of a household with responsibility for several children of school age? Are the tradeoffs they have to make different, or will they evaluate the tradeoffs differently?A single person needs only to support himself and therefore can make every financial decision on his own. If he does not want health insurance (and is willing to bear the financial risks associated with that decision) then no one will be affected by that decision other than that single person. In addition, this person needs to make no decisions about allocating income among dependents. A single person is very mobile and can choose to live almost anywhere. The tradeoffs this individual makes generally concern issues of consuming (or spending) today versus saving for consumption tomorrow. Since this person is supporting only himself, the need to save now is less important than for the head of household discussed next.T he head of household with several children must share resources (income) among dependents. This individual must be prepared to deal with risk management issues such as how to be prepared for potential financial emergencies (such as a serious health problem experienced by a member of the family or home owners insurance in case of a fire or other mishap). Because there are more people in this household than with a single person, there are greater risks that someone will get sick or injured. Andbecause there are dependents, the wage earner(s) should think carefully about life and disability insurance. In addition, the family is not as mobile as the single individual. Because of the school age children, the family might want to live near “good schools” thinking that a stronger education will eventually help those children’s future well being and financial situation. Thus, the tradeoffs for the head of household are more complex: more money is needed to consume today (he or she needs to support more dependents), but a lot more money is also needed to save for future expenses such as education and housing and more money is needed for risk management such as life and disability insurance.4. Family A and family B both consist of a father, mother and two children of school age. In family A both spouses have jobs outside the home and earn a combined income of $100,000 per year. In family B, only one spouse works outside the home and earns $100,000 per year. How do the financial circumstances and decisions faced by the two families differ?With two wage earners, there is less risk of a total loss of family income due to unemployment or disability than there is in a single wage earning household. The single wage earning family will probably want more disability and life insurance than the two wage earning family. On the flip side, however, the two wage earning family may need to spend extra money on child care expenses if they need to pay someone to watch the children after school.5. Suppose we define financial independence as the ability to engage in the four basic household financial decisions without resort to the use of relative’s resources when making financing decisions. At what age should children be expected to becomefinancially independent?Students will have differing responses to this question depending upon their specific experiences and opinions. Most will probably say independence should come after finishing their education, and they have a significant flow of income.6. You are thinking of buying a car. Analyze the decision by addressing the following issues:a.Are there are other ways to satisfy your transportation requirements besides buying a car? Make a list ofall the alternatives and write down the pros and cons.Transportation Mode Pros ConsWalking ?Takes you directly where you wantto goNo out of pocket costsConvenient ?Takes a long time ?Destination may be too far Bicycle ?Takes you directly to where youwant to goNo out of pocket marginal costsConvenient ?Requires physical strength and endurance ?Destination may be too farBus ?InexpensiveReaches more distant destinations ?May not take you directly where you want to go ?Inconvenient schedules to go ?Many stops, not efficientSubway ?InexpensiveFast ?May not take you directly where you want to goLocal destinations only on limited networkTrain ?Reaches distant destinations ?Moderately expensiveMay not take you directly whereyou want to goAirplane ?Reaches distant destinationsFast ?Most expensiveWill not take you directly where you want to gob. What are the different ways you can finance the purchase of a car?F inance through a bank loan or lease, finance through a car dealer with a loan or a lease or finance the car out of your own savings.c. Obtain information from at least three different providers of automobile financing on the terms they offer.d. What criteria should you use in making your decision?Your decision will be to select the financing alternative that has the lowest cost to you.When analyzing the information, you should consider the following:Do you have the cash saved to make an outright purchase? What interest rate would you be giving up to make that purchase? Do you pay a different price for the car if you pay cash rather than finance?For differing loan plans, what is the down payment today? What are the monthly payments? For how long? What is the relevant interest rate you will be paying? Does the whole loan get paid through monthly payments or is there a balloon payment at the end? Are taxes and/or insurance payments included in the monthly payments? ?For differing lease plans, what is the down payment today? What are the monthly payments? For how long? Do you own the car at the end of the lease? If not, what does it cost to buy the car? Do you have to buy the car at the end of the lease or is it an option? Is there a charge if you decide not to buy the car? What relevant interest rate will you be paying? Are taxesand/or insurance payments included in the monthly payments? Are there mileage restrictions?7. Match each of the following examples with one of the four categories of basic types of household financial decisions.At the Safeway paying with your debit card rather than taking the time to write a checkDeciding to take the proceeds from your winning lottery ticket and use it to pay for an extended vacation on the Italian RivieraFollowing Hillary’s advice and selling your Microsoft shares to invest in pork belly futuresHelping your 15-year old son learn to drive by letting putting him behind the wheel on the back road into townTaking up the offer from the pool supply company to pay off your new hot tub with a 15-month loan with zero payments for the first three monthsThe first is the most difficult since in practice it is simply a cash transaction involving no financing. As such the purchase is a consumption decision only and the payment choice is not a financing decision. The second is also a consumption/saving decision. The third is an exchange of one financial asset for another and therefore an investment decision. The fourth is a risk-management decision since you have subjected yourself to increased risk that is not covered by insurance. The final example is a financing decision involving a loan to finance a purchase.Forms of Business Organization8. You are thinking of starting your own business, but have no money.a.Think of a business that you could start without having to borrow any money.A ny business that involves a student’s own personal service would be cheap to start up. For instance he or she could start a business running errands for others, walking their dogs, shopping etc. Along those same lines they could start some kind of consulting business. Both of these businesses could be run out of their dorm room or their own home and could be started with very little capital. If they wanted to hire additional workers, they would have to be paid on a commission basis to limit upfront expenses.b. Now think of a business that you would want to start if you could borrow any amount of money at the going market interest rate.Certainly there are many interesting businesses that could be started if one could finance 100% of the business with borrowed capital and no equity. Since you will be able to borrow 100% of the financing, you will be willing to take a lot greater risk than if you were investing your own money.c. What are the risks you would face in this business?[Answer is, of course, dependent on answer to question “b.”]d. Where can you get financing for your new business?Depending upon the size of the financing needed, students should be looking for both debt and equity financing. The sources of this financing ranges from individuals and credit cards (for very small sums) to banks, venture capitalists, public debt and equity markets, insurance companies and pension funds9. Choose an organization that is not a firm, such as a club or church group and list the most important financial decisions it has to make. What are the key tradeoffs the organization faces? What role do preferences play in choosing among alternatives?Interview the financial manager of the organization and check to see if he or she agrees with you.SAMPLE ANSWER:Local Church group. Most important financial decisions:Whether or not to repair damage done to church and grounds during last big hurricane (specifically repairing the leaking roof)What project to put off in order to pay for repair damageHow to pay for renovations to downstairs Sunday school roomsHow to increase member attendance and contributionsHow to organize and solicit volunteers for the annual Church Sale (largest fund raiser of the year)Key Tradeoffs and Preferences:C hurch group funds are severely limited, so the organization needs to prioritize expenses based upon cost and need. Not all projects that are needed will be undertaken due to the expense involved. An equally large amount of timewill be spent trying to raise financing since funds inflow is variable. Since not all projects can be financed, preferences of different important individuals (such as the pastor) take on great significance in the decision-making process.Market Discipline: Takeovers10. Challenge Question: While there are clear advantages to the separation of management from ownership of business enterprises, there is also a fundamental disadvantage in that it may be costly to align the goals of management with those of the owners. Suggest at least two methods, other than the takeover market, by which the conflict can be reduced, albeit at some cost.One way is to provide incentives for the managers so that they increase their pay when owners interests are improved. An example would be compensating managers with stock options, the value of which increase with the market value of shareholder’s int erests. A second method is to more closely monitor the behavior of the managers. Outside management consultants and auditors serve this role in part particularly to the extent that they report their findings to representatives from ownership groups. Both of these solutions assume the management cannot effectively deceive markets or consultant/auditors through misleading information or actions to inflate the market value of the ownership shares or there performance records.11. Challenge Question:Consider a poorly run local coffee shop with its prime location featuring a steady stream of potential clients passing by on their way to and from campus. How does the longtime disgruntled, sloppy and inefficient owner-manager of Cup-a-Joe survive and avoid disciplining from the takeover market? This is not a question about a misalignment of the goals of the owner(s) and manager(s) of a firm since we have explicitly said the firm is owner-managed. If in fact the coffee shop is mismanaged the potential exists for an outsider to purchase a controlling interest in the operation and put more efficient management into place if the purchase price does not exceed the value of profits to be generated by the efficiently managed firm. If the present owner chooses not to sell he must value the firm for more than the value of the profits generated by an efficiently managed firm. Therefore his position in the firm must generate for him non-pecuniary benefits, or benefits unrelated to the firm’s profitability and he is therefore not avalue maximizer. Perhaps he enjoys making fun of his clients or takes pride in his eclectic tastes in interior decorating. In any case the takeover market does discipline him in the sense that he will be forced to pay for his non-pecuniary benefits in the sense that he trades off profits.The same could be said of an owner-manager who lacks the required specialized skills to properly run the firm but never the less continues to operate the company inefficiently because he ‘likes’ the work!The Role of the Finance Specialist in a Corporation12. Which of the following tasks undertaken within a corporate office are likely to fall under the supervision of the treasurer? The controller?Arranging to extend a line of credit from a bankArranging with an investment bank for a foreign exchange transactionProducing a detailed analysis of the cost structure of the company’s alternative product linesTaking cash payments for company sales and purchasing U.S. Treasury BillsFiling quarterly statements with the Securities and Exchange CommissionThe first two and the fourth items are responsibilities of the treasurer while the third and fifth items fall under the workload of the controller’s office.Objectivesy Define finance.y Explain why finance is worth studying.y Introduce two of the main players in the world of finance—households and firms—and the kinds of financial decisions theymake. The other main players, financial intermediaries and government, are introduced in chapter 2.Contents1.1Defining Finance1.2Why Study Finance?1.3Financial Decisions of Households1.4Financial Decisions of Firms1.5Forms of Business Organization1.6Separation of Ownership and Management1.7The Goal of Management1.8Market Discipline: Takeovers1.9The Role of the Finance Specialist in a CorporationSummaryFinance is the study of how to allocate scarce resources over time. The two features that distinguish finance are that the costs and benefits of financial decisions are spread out over time and are usually not known with certainty in advance by either the decision maker or anybody else.A basic tenet of finance is that the ultimate function of the system is to satisfy people’s consumption preferences. Economic organizations such as firms and governments exist in order to facilitate the achievement of that ultimate function. Many financial decisions can be made strictly on the basis of improving the trade-offs available to people without knowledge of their consumption preferences.There are at least five good reasons to study finance:y To manage your personal resources.y To deal with the world of business.y To pursue interesting and rewarding career opportunities.y To make informed public choices as a citizen.y To expand your mind.The players in finance theory are households, business firms, financial intermediaries, and governments. Households occupy a special place in the theory because the ultimate function of the system is to satisfy the preferences of people, and the theory treats those preferences as given. Finance theory explains household behavior as an attempt to satisfy those preferences. The behavior of firms is viewed from the perspective of how it affects the welfare of households.Households face four basic types of financial decisions:y Saving decisions: How much of their current income should they save for the future?y Investment decisions: How should they invest the money they have saved?y Financing decisions: When and how should they use other people’s money to sa tisfy their wants and needs?y Risk-management decisions: How and on what terms should they seek to reduce the economic uncertainties they face or to take calculated risks?There are three main areas of financial decision making in a business: capital budgeting, capital structure, and working capital management.There are five reasons for separating the management from the ownership of a business enterprise: y Professional managers may be found who have a superior ability to run the business.y To achieve the efficient scale of a business the resources of many households may have to be pooled.y In an uncertain economic environment, owners will want to diversify their risks across many firms. Such efficient diversification is difficult to achieve without separation ofownership and management.y To achieve savings in the costs of gathering information.y The “learning curve” or “going concern” effect: When the owner is also the manager, the new owner has to learn the business from the former owner in order to manage it efficiently. If the owner is not the manager, then when the business is sold, the manager continues in place and works for the new owner.The corporate form is especially well suited to the separation of ownership and management of firms because it allows relatively frequent changes in owners by share transfer without affecting the operations of the firm.The primary goal of corporate management is to maximize shareholder wealth. It leads managers to make the same investment decisions that each of the individual owners would have made had they made the decisions themselves.A competitive stock market imposes a strong discipline on managers to take actions to maximize the market value of the firm’s shares.。

如果他不想购买健康保险(而愿意承担由这个决定而带来的金融风险)那么除了这个单身汉自身,没谁会受这个决定的影响。
另外,他不需要在家庭成员之间分配收入这件事上做任何决定。
单身汉是很灵活自由的,可以选择住在几乎任何地方。
他主要是在今天的消费(开支)和为明天储蓄之间做出权衡决策。
既然他只需要养活他自己,那么他储蓄的重要性就比对一家之主的重要性小。
有许多孩子的一家之长必须在这些家庭成员中分配资源[或者说是收入].他们必须随时准备着处理各种风险,比如说潜在财政危机的突然发生[诸如家庭成员经历的严重健康问题,或者因为火灾和其他疏忽导致的保险问题].因为在一般一个家庭里人会比较多,有些人生病或受伤的风险就会更大.并且因为家庭中有许多依赖性的个体,所以薪水收入者得认真地考虑生活和残疾保险.还有,家庭并不像个体那样富有机动性,这是因为有了适龄儿童的缘故,这个家庭会想离所谓好的学校近一点,同时良好的教育会对孩子将来的生活和财政状况有所裨益.因此一家之主的资源配置会更加的复杂:要有更多的钱于目前的消费(这也是他或她需要来抚养成员的),但是同时又需要更多的钱储蓄起来以支付未来的费用,诸如教育和房屋购置,还有风险投资,比如生活和残障保险.四.在双收入家庭中,家庭失去全部经济收入的风险比单收入家庭要小,同时,单收入家庭比双收入家庭更愿意购买残疾保险,人身保险.然而,如果单收入家庭需要有人照顾放学后回家的孩子,他们还要再支付照看小孩的额外费用.五.学生们结合他们具体的经历和看法会给出不同的答案。
博迪《金融学》第2版课后习题及详解(管理财务健康状况和业绩)【圣才出品】

博迪《金融学》第2版课后习题及详解第3章管理财务健康状况和业绩一、概念题1.账面价值(book values)答:账面价值是指会计账面所表现的资产价值,分为资产的账面价值和公司的账面价值。
资产的账面价值是指公司的资产在会计账簿上表现的价值,即原来购进资产的价值(资产的成本)减去折旧。
在固定资产购置当期,资产的账面价值等于当期市场价值加上运输、安装、调试等费用。
在固定资产正式投产营运后,每一会计期间都会对该资产计提折旧。
资产的账面价值会随着累计折旧的增加而减少,直到该资产报废时其账面价值仅剩残值,进而转销该资产。
公司的账面价值,是指公司资产负债表上所列示的资产总额减去负债、优先股之后的差额。
账面价值以历史成本为基础,它与一项资产或一个公司的市场价值关系不大。
2.无形资产(intangible assets)答:无形资产是指企业为生产商品、提供劳务、出租给他人,或为管理目的而持有的、没有实物形态的非货币性长期资产,如专利权、商标权、著作权、土地使用权、非专利技术、专营权、商誉等。
无形资产的特征有:①不具有实物形态;②可以在一个以上会计期间为企业提供经济利益;③有偿取得;④提供的未来经济利益具有很大的不确定性;⑤用于生产商品或提供劳务、出租给他人或为了行政管理目的而持有。
无形资产按形成来源不同可分为购入的、自创的、投资者投入的、接受捐赠的无形资产等;按能否辨认可分为可辨认无形资产和不可辨认无形资产。
无形资产只有在该资产产生的经济利益很可能流入企业、该资产的成本能够可靠地计量时,企业才能加以确认。
3.商誉(goodwill)答:商誉是指企业在经营活动中所具有的优越获利能力的潜在经济价值,是一种不可辨认的无形资产。
商誉由企业的良好信誉、产品的较高质量和市场占有率、可靠的销售网络、有效的内部管理、先进的技术、优越的地理位置等因素形成。
其特征是:①商誉与企业整体相关,不能单独存在;②形成商誉的因素无法单独计值;③商誉与形成商誉过程中所发生的成本无关,它是一种获得超额收益的能力。
