The debt pays perpetual expected coupons of $3.5 million annually. The above numbers are prior to a stock buyback being announced. The firm uses some of its cash buyback stock on of $20 million. As a result of the fall in its cash, the expected coupon payment to debt reduce to $3.4 million (expected payments is the probability weighted future coupons, and the probability that in some future states of the world the firm would default has increased due to the the stock buyback). Also the rate of discount Rd for expected coupons paid to debt rises to 5.20%. Assume Modigliani-Miller is true (which also means there are no taxes).

A firm currently has 1,000 shares outstanding, each with a price of $230. The firm announces a 1 for 5 "Rights Issue" of new stock, that is each stock holder would have the right to buy 1 stock for 5 stocks currently held. The price at which the new stock will be sold to existing shareholders will be $160. Assume all shareholders act rationally in making their purchase decision, that is they purchase the Rights stock if the price they will pay will be lower than the price of the stock after the Rights issue is completed. What will the price of the stock be after the Rights issue is completed? Round the answer to two decimals. Answer: 21833 v D> View question 7 feedback Question 8 2/ 2 points Suppose we live in a world in which Modgliani Miller is true, that is there are no information or tax issues and capital structure is irrelevant.
