a.
Determine how many new shares will be issued by BAD Company and at what price, given that BAD Company’s stock price is $20 and the firm has 2 million shares outstanding and an acquiring company believes that the company’s value can be increased, if the management is replaced. The BAD Company has a poison pill with a 20% trigger and if the poison pill is triggered, all BAD shareholders except the acquiring company will be able to buy one new share in BAD for each share they own at a 50% discount. Assume that the price of shares remains at $20 per share when the acquirer company is acquiring shares. Despite the BAD Company’s management resisting the buyout attempt, the acquirer company crosses the 20% threshold of ownership.
b.
Determine what will happen to the percentage of ownership of BAD Company by the acquirer company, given that BAD Company’s stock price is $20 and the firm has 2 million shares outstanding. The BAD Company has a poison pill with a 20% trigger and if the poison pill is triggered, all BAD shareholders except the acquiring company will be able to buy one new share in BAD for each share they own at a 50% discount. Assume that the price of shares remains at $20 per share when the acquirer company is acquiring shares. Despite the BAD Company’s management resisting the buyout attempt, the acquirer company crosses the 20% threshold of ownership.

- Dillon Enterprises has the following capDillon Enterprises has the following capital structure. Debt ........................ 40% Common equity ....... 60 The after-tax cost of debt is 6 percent, and the cost of common equity (in the form of retained earnings) is 13 percent. What is the firm’s weighted average cost of capital? a. An outside consultant has suggested that because debt is cheaper than equity, the firm should switch to a capital structure that is 50 percent debt and 50 percent equity. Under this new and more debt-oriented arrangement, the after-tax cost of debt is 7 percent, and the cost of common equity (in the form of retained earnings) is 15 percent. Recalculate the firm’s weighted average cost of capital. b. Which plan is optimal in terms of minimizing the weighted average cost of capital?arrow_forwardCompute Ke and Kn under the following circumstances: a. D1= $5, P0=$70, g=8%, F=$7 b. D1=$0.22, P0=$28, g=7%, F=2.50 c. E1 (earnings at the end of period one) = $7, payout ratio equals 40 percent, P0= $30, g=6%, F=$2,20. Note: D1 is the earnings times the payout rate. d. D0 (dividend at the beginning of the first period) = $6, growth rate for dividends and earnings (g)=7%, P0=$60, F=$3. You will need to calculate D1 (the dividend after the first period).arrow_forwardTerrier Company is in a 45 percent tax bracket and has a bond outstanding that yields 11 percent to maturity. a.
