Cost of Financing: Assume Seminole, INC.

11. Cost of Financing: Assume Seminole, INC., considers issuing a Singapore dollar-denominated bond at its present coupon rate of 7%, even though it has no incoming cash flows to cover the bond payments. It is attracted to the low financing rate because US dollar-denominated bonds issued in the United States would have a coupon rate of 12%. Assume that either type of bond would have a 4 year maturity and could be issued at par value. Seminole needs to borrow $10 million. Therefore, it will issue either US dollar-denominated bonds with a par value of $10 million or bonds denominated in Singapore dollars with a par value of S$20 million. The spot rate of the Singapore dollar is $.50. Seminole has forecasted the Singapore dollars value at the end of each of the next 4 years, when coupon payments are to be paid. Determine the expected annual cost of financing with Singapore dollars. Should Seminole, INC, issue bonds denominated in US dollars or Singapore dollar? Explain.
