Question

Hi there,

I am working on a corporate finance problem. The problem is:

Assume the M&M Model with corporate holds. Assume investors are
taxed at a rate of 15% on equity income and 40% on debt income at personal tax rate. The numbers are on the chart attached.

How do I solve for the levered market value of equity for the three companies? Also, how do I solve for the total value of the firm? Can you please show me how to solve this without using excel?

 

Thanks
