Consider a simple firm that has the following market-value balance sheet: Assets Liabilities end equity $1 040 Debt Equity $400 640 Next year, there are two possible values for its assets, each equally likely: $1 180 and $960. Its debt will be due with 4.9% interest. Because all of the cash flows from the assets must go to either the debt or the equity, if you hold a portfolio of the debt and equity in the same proportions as the firm's capital structure, your portfolio should earn exactly the expected return on the firm's assets. Show that a portfolio invested 38% in the firm's debt and 62% in its equity will have the same expected return as the assets of the firm. That is, show that the firm's pre-tax WACC is the same as the expected return on its assets. If the assets will be worth $1 180 in one year, the expected return on assets will be %.
