A company is considering issuing either a straight coupon bond or a coupon bond with warrants attached. The proceeds from either issue would be the same. If the firm issues the bond with warrants attached instead of the straight coupon bond, which of the following ratios will most likely be lower for the bond with warrants()
A. Return on assets.
B. Debt on equity ratio.
C. Interest coverage ratio.
参考答案:B
解析:
[分析]: 由于附认股权的息票债券的利息费用相对较低,从而其净收益和资产回报率(ROA)将会相对较高。 由认股权带来的所得将被归为权益,从而归为负债的金额将相应下降。因此,附认股权的息票债券的债务一权益回报率将会相对较低。 无论使用哪种财务处理方法,两种债券的EBIT均相同。如果两类债券的发行所得相同,则附认股权债券的息票金额将会相对较低,从而附认股权债券的利息抛补比率将会相对较高。 综上所述,本题的正确选项为B。 [考点] 权益性债券分析
