Consider a firm with an EBITDA of $1,100,000 and an EBIT of $1,000,000. The firm finances its assets with $4,640,000 debt (costing 8.4 percent, all of which is tax deductible) and 214,000 shares of stock selling at $12 per share. To reduce risk associated with this financial leverage, the firm is considering reducing its debt by $2,640,000 by selling additional shares of stock. The firm’s tax rate is 21 percent.
