Guardian Inc. is trying to develop an asset-financing plan. The
firm has $330,000 in temporary current assets and $230,000 in
permanent current assets. Guardian also has $430,000 in fixed
assets. Assume a tax rate of 40 percent.
a. Construct two alternative financing plans for
Guardian. One of the plans should be conservative, with 80 percent
of assets financed by long-term sources, and the other should be
aggressive, with only 56.25 percent of assets financed by long-term
sources. The current interest rate is 12 percent on long-term funds
and 7 percent on short-term financing. Compute the annual interest
payments under each plan.

Homework Answers
a. Computation of Annual interest payments
Total Assets = Temporary Assets + Permanent Assets + Fixed Assets
Total Assets = 330000 + 230000 + 430000
Total Assets = $990000
Conservative:
Annual Interest payment = Total Assets * % of Long Term Fianncing * Interest Rate on long term funds + Total Assets * % of Short term financing * Interest rate on short term funds
Annual Interest payment = 990000 * 80% * 12% + 990000 * 20% * 7%
Annual Interest payment = $108900
Aggressive:
Annual Interest payment = Total Assets * % of Long Term Fianncing * Interest Rate on long term funds + Total Assets * % of Short term financing * Interest rate on short term funds
Annual Interest payment = 990000 * 56.25% * 12% + 990000 * 43.75% * 7%
Annual Interest payment = $97143.75
