(please help find answers, I got mine wrong) The Neal Company wants to estimate next year's return on equity (ROE) under different financial leverage ratios. Neal's total capital is $11 million, it currently uses only common equity, it has no future plans to use preferred stock in its capital structure, and its federal-plus - state tax rate is 40%. The CFO has estimated next year's EBIT for three possible states of the world: $5.3 million with a 0.2 probability, $2.3 million with a 0.5 probability, and $0.3 million with a 0.3 probability. Calculate Neal's expected ROE, standard deviation, and coefficient of variation for each of the following debt-to-capital ratios. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to two decimal places at the end of the calculations. Debt/Capital ratio is 0. RÔE=% \sigma =% CV = Debt/Capital ratio is 10%, interest rate is 9%. RÔE=% \sigma =___ % CV = Debt/Capital ratio is 50%, interest rate is 11%. RÔE = _%\sigma =_ % CV = ____ Debt/Capital…
An unlevered firm has a value of $850 million. An otherwise identical but levered firm has $80 million in debt at a 3% interest rate, which is its pre-tax cost of debt. Its unlevered cost of equity is 10%. After Year 1, free cash flows and tax savings are expected to grow at a constant rate of 4%. Assuming the corporate tax rate is 25%, use the compressed adjusted present value model to determine the value of the levered firm. (Hint: The interest expense at Year 1 is based on the current level of debt.) Enter your answer in millions. For example, an answer of $10,550,000 should be entered as 10.55. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to two decimal places.
XYZ is considering altering its capital structure. Currently it has 40% debt and 60% equity. XYZ's levered beta is 2.0 under its current capital structure. The firm's tax rate is 40% which will not change if the capital structure is altered. What is the value of the levered beta if XYZ changes its capital structure to 50% debt, 50% equity? show your answer to 1 decimal place (example: a beta of 1.2)

Only answer the subpart b) please! Show calculation steps A firm is solely financed by equity with market value of $50,000 and cost of equity of 10%. It wishes to raise another $30,000 via corporate bonds with cost of debt of 5% and use all of it to buy back outstanding equity (no cash holding). Hold investment policies fixed. a)In a MM world without taxes, What would the firm value be after debt issuance? Firm Value = Equity Value + Debt Value - Cash. What would be the cost of equity after debt is raised? What would be the WACC after debt is raised? b)In a MM world with tax rate of 40%, What would be the cost of equity after debt is raised? What would be the additional value created by debt? What would be the WACC after debt is raised?
The firm want to add some leverage to their firm as they are running their business at a 0% debt level.The firm has a projected EBIT of $198,000 and can issue debt at 5.8% per annum. They wish to increase their D/E ratio to 1.08 at the end of the year. The firm estimates their cost of equity to be 14.1% and pays 34% in taxes per year. what is the firm value after it adds this leverage to the firm?
Assume zero corporate tax rate. Acorn Industries owns assets that have 80% probability of having market value $50 million in one year and 20% probability of having market value $20 million in one year. The risk free rate is 4% and Acorn's assets have cost of capital 10%. (a) If Acorn is unlevered, what is the value of Acorn's equity? (b) What is the expected return on equity? (c) What is the volatility of the equity return? (d) What is the WACC?
