Assume that Firms U and L are in the same risk class and that both have EBIT=$500,000. Firm U uses no debt financing, and its cost of equity is rsU=14%. Firm L has $1 million of debt outstanding at a cost of rd=8%. There are no taxes. Assume that the MM assumptions hold. Graph (a) the relationships between capital costs and leverage as measured by D/V and (b) the relationship between V and D. Now assume that Firms L and U are both subject to a 40% corporate tax rate. Using the data given in Part b, repeat the analysis called for in b(1) and b(2) using assumptions from the MM model with taxes.
Pls help correctly, I only need c part and correct with approach and explanation.
Stevensons bakeries and all equity firm that has a projected perpetual EBIT of $144,000 per year. The cost of equity is 10.5% and the tax rate is 21%. Assume there's no depreciation, no capital spending and no change in networking capital. The firm can borrow perpetual debt at 5.8%. Currently, the firm is considering converting to a debt equity ratio of .54. What is the firms levered value? MM assumptions hold.
Consider a project of the Cornell Haul Moving Company, the timing and size of the incremental after-tax cash flows (for an all-equity firm) are shown below in millions: Time Cash Flow -$ 990 125 250 375 500 The firm's tax rate is 34 percent; the firm's bonds trade with a yield to maturity of 8 percent; the current and target debt-equity ratio is 2; if the firm were financed entirely with equity, the required return would be 10 percent. What is the levered after-tax incremental cash flow for year 2? 0000 2 3 4 $185,796,000 $215,152,000 $284,848,000 $267,952,000
You are comparing two possible capital structures for a firm. The first option is an all-equity firm. The second option involves the use of $3.8 million of debt. The break-even point between these two financing options occurs when earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) are $428,000. Given this, you know that leverage is beneficial to the firm: A- whenever EBIT exceeds $428,000 B- whenever EBIT is less than $428,000 C- only when EBIT is $428,000 D- only if the debt is decreased by $428,000 E- only is the debt is increased by $428,000
A company is considering its optimal capital structure. The firm currently has 1 million shares outstanding at $ 20 per share (tax rate = 40%) and a debt balance of $5 million. Currently, its (levered) beta is 1.5 and its ERP is 5.5%. The current risk-free rate is 5%. Your research indicate the following ratings and pre-tax cost of debt across the different debt ratios: D/(D+E) Rating Pre-tax cost of debt 0% AAA 10% 10% AA 10.5% 20% A 11% 30% BBB 12% 40% BB 13% 50% B 14% 60% CCC 16% 70% CC 18% 80% C 20% 90% D 25% a. Using the optimal WACC approach, what is the firm's optimal debt ratio? b. Calculate the company's unlevered value, assuming that the probability of default is 5% and the company loses 30% of its value in the event of a default.
