TOPIC – LINEAR PROGRAMMING Linear Programming is a mathematical procedure for determining optimal allocation of scarce resources. Requirements of Linear Programming • all problems seek to maximize or minimize some quantity • The presence of restrictions or constraints • There must be alternative courses of action • The objective and constraints in linear programming must be expressed in terms of linear equations or inequalities Objective

pre-requisite interest payment and potentially dividend payment (possibly dividend growth maintenance) should be considered. Required debt rate and pro forma income statement Risk determinants Credit rating agencies take a wide range of factors – debt raising purpose‚ industry outlook‚ corporate profile and financial measures into account when performing corporate bond rating service. Debt is raised to repurchase shares rather than the normal case of capturing expansion opportunities to strengthen

In an interesting recent paper‚ DeAngelo and DeAngelo (2006) highlight that Miller and Modigliani’s (1961) proof of dividend irrelevance is based on the assumption that the amount of dividends distributed to shareholders is equal or greater than

Solver. Now we demonstrate how to use Excel spreadsheet modeling and Solver to find the optimal solution of optimization problems. If the model has two variables‚ the graphical method can be used to solve the model. Very few real world problems involve only two variables. For problems with more than two variables‚ we need to use complex techniques and tedious calculations to find the optimal solution. The spreadsheet and solver approach makes solving optimization problems a fairly simple task and

Problems Q.1 Consider a five-year coupon bond with a face value of $1000 paying an annual coupon of 15%. (i) If the current market yield is 8%‚ what is the bond’s price? (ii) If the current market yield increases by 1% what is the bond’s new price? (iii) Using your answers to part (i) and (ii) ‚ what is percentage change in the bond’s price as a result of 1% increase in interest rates. Q.2 Consider the following FI balance sheet: M.

The development of linear programming has been ranked among the most important scientific advances of the mid 20th century. Its impact since the 1950’s has been extraordinary. Today it is a standard tool used by some companies (around 56%) of even moderate size. Linear programming uses a mathematical model to describe the problem of concern. Linear programming involves the planning of activities to obtain an optimal result‚ i.e.‚ a result that reaches the specified goal best (according to the mathematical
