- Assume BigData Inc. has no cash on hand, but wants to take on a project that adds $70 million in market value to the firm’s assets, and has an NPV of $30 million.

Existing assets generate earnings of $20mil. per year forever. Discount rate=10%. Firm has n shares (5 mil.) currently selling at P=$40 per share. Now firm plans to invest I=$40mil. in new project. Project will generate $5 mil. in new earnings per year forever. Firm will issue new shares to fund this new project. a. In an efficient capital market, what is the price that new shareholders are willing to pay for each share of Firm CCC’stock? What is the gain by existing shareholders? b. Suppose market is inefficient and new shares can be sold for $45, what is the gain/loss by new shareholders from purchasing these new shares?arrow_forwardCapital Structure Analysis Pettit Printing Company has a total market value of 100 million, consisting of 1 million shares selling for 50 per share and 50 million of 10% perpetual bonds now selling at par. The companys EBIT is 13.24 million, and its tax rate is 15%. Pettit can change its capital structure by either increasing its debt to 70% (based on market values) or decreasing it to 30%. If it decides to increase its use of leverage, it must call its old bonds and issue new ones with a 12% coupon. If it decides to decrease its leverage, it will call its old bonds and replace them with new 8% coupon bonds. The company will sell or repurchase stock at the new equilibrium price to complete the capital structure change. The firm pays out all earnings as dividends; hence, its stock is a zero-growth stock. Its current cost of equity, rs, is 14%. If it increases leverage, rs will be 16%. If it decreases leverage, rs will be 13%. What is the firms WACC and total corporate value under each capital structure?arrow_forward

It has 900,000 shares and its expected share price next year is $32.00. It can select from three independent projects, each of which will require a $3.5M investment. The projects have different risk levels, so SBC is appropriately evaluating them using different costs of capital. Assuming normal cashflows, the projected IRRS and costs of capital follow: Cost of Capital IRR 20% Project A: Project B: Project C: 17% 13% 10% 7% 9% SBC wants to maintain its 40% debt and 60% common equity capital structure, and it expects net income of $5.0M next year.
