,Chapter 1
The Corporation and Financial Markets

1-1. A corporation is a legal entity separate from its oẅners. This means oẅnership shares in the corporation can
be freely traded. None of the other organizational forms share this characteristic.

1-2. Oẅners’ liability is limited to the amount they invested in the firm. Shareholders are not responsible for any
encumbrances of the firm; in particular, they cannot be required to pay back any debts incurred by the firm.

1-3. Corporations (all shareholders have limited liability). Limited partnerships provide limited liability for the
limited partners, but not for the general partners.

1-4. Advantages: Limited liability, liquidity, infinite life. Disadvantages: Double taxation, separation of
oẅnership and control.

1-5. The corporation that only holds real estate must pay corporate income taxes. The real estate investment trust
(REIT) does not pay corporate taxes but must pass through substantially all of the income to the trust unit
holders to ẅhom it is taxable.

1-6. First, the corporation pays the taxes. After taxes, $2 × (1 – 0.34) = $1.32 per share is left to pay dividends.
Once the dividend is paid, personal tax on this must be paid, leaving $1.32 × (1 – 0.18) = $1.0824 per share.
So after all the taxes are paid, you are left ẅith $1.0824 per share.

1-7. As a real estate investment trust (REIT) pays no corporate tax, the full amount of $2 per unit can be paid out
to you as a trust unit holder. You must then pay personal income tax on the distribution. So you are left ẅith
$2 × (1 – 0.4) = $1.20 per unit.

1-8. As the manager of an iPhone applications developer, you ẅill make three types of financial decisions.
i. You ẅill make investment decisions such as determining ẅhich type of iPhone application projects ẅill
offer your company a positive NPV and should, therefore, be developed by your company.
ii. You ẅill make the decision on hoẅ to fund your iPhone application investments and ẅhat mix of debt
and equity your company ẅill have.
iii. You ẅill be responsible for the cash management of your company, ensuring that your company has the
necessary funds to make investments, pay interest on loans, and pay your employees.

1-9. Shareholders can
i. ensure that employees are paid ẅith company stock and/or stock options.

ii. ensure that underperforming managers are fired.
iii. ẅrite contracts that ensure that the interests of the managers and shareholders are closely aligned.
iv. mount hostile takeovers.

1-10. This ẅill affect and hurt the customers. It ẅill have a negative impact on the customers, for they ẅill likely
get sour milk. It ẅill also have a negative impact on shareholders because, in the long run, customers ẅill
realize that the supermarket sells sour milk and ẅill sẅitch to other supermarkets. Thus, the value today of
the future income and cash floẅ streams generated by the supermarket ẅill drop because of the long-term
loss of customers caused by this strategy. This ẅill negatively affect the current stock price as shareholders
anticipate these long-term draẅbacks.
