- Assume that Firms U and L are in the same risk class and that both have EBIT=$500,000. Firm U uses no debt financing, and its cost of equity is rsU=14%. Firm L has $1 million of debt outstanding at a cost of rd=8%. There are no taxes. Assume that the MM assumptions hold. Graph (a) the relationships between capital costs and leverage as measured by D/V and (b) the relationship between V and D. Now assume that Firms L and U are both subject to a 40% corporate tax rate. Using the data given in Part b, repeat the analysis called for in b(1) and b(2) using assumptions from the MM model with taxes.arrow_forwardCapital Structure Analysis The Rivoli Company has no debt outstanding, and its financial position is given by the following data: Expected EBIT Growth rate in EBIT, gL Cost of equity, rs Shares outstanding, no Tax rate, T (federal-plus-state) a. What is Rivoli's intrinsic value of operations (i.e., its unlevered value)? Round your answer to the nearest dollar. $ What is its intrinsic stock price? Its earnings per share? Round your answers to the nearest cent. Intrinsic stock price: $ $500,000 0% 10% 100,000 What is the new earnings per share? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest cent. $ 25% Earnings per share: $ b. Rivoli is considering selling bonds and simultaneously repurchasing some of its stock. If it moves to a capital structure with 25% debt based on market values, its cost of equity, rs, will increase to 11% to reflect the increased risk. Bonds can be sold at a cost, rd, of 6%. Based on the new capital structure, what is the new weighted…arrow_forwardSuppose the firm has a value of $169,411.77 when it is all equity financed. Now assume the firm issues $ 52,000 of debt paying interest of 6% per year and uses the proceeds to retire equity. The debt is expected to be permanent. What will be the value of the firm? Enter your answer rounded to two decimal places. Number What will be the value of the equity after the debt issue? Enter your answer rounded to two decimal places. Numberarrow_forward
- In the Merton model of corporate equity which is based on the Black Scholes formula, what is the quantity (S0/KT)? Assume that interest rates are zero (r=0) so the time value of money can be ignored, therefore S0 = ST. (a) Debt-to-equity ratio. (b) Debt-to-assets ratio. (c) Assets-to-debt ratio. (d) Assets-to-equity ratio. (e) Equity-to-assets ratiarrow_forwardTrue or False: It is free for a company to raise money through retained earnings, because retained earnings represent money that is left over after dividends are paid out to shareholders. False True The cost of equity using the CAPM approach The current risk-free rate of return (TRF) is 3.86% while the market risk premium is 6.63%. The Monroe Company has a beta of 0.92. Using the capital asset pricing model (CAPM) approach, Monroe's cost of equity is The cost of equity using the bond yield plus risk premium approach The Lincoln Company is closely held and, therefore, cannot generate reliable inputs with which to use the CAPM method for estimating a company's cost of internal equity. Lincoln's bonds yield 11.52%, and the firm's analysts estimate that the firm's risk premium on its stock over its bonds is 4.95%. Based on the bond-yield-plus-risk-premium approach, Lincoln's cost of internal equity is: 19.76% 16.47% 15.65% O 18.12%arrow_forwardWhat is the cost of equity based on the dividend growth model?

- In considering Modigliani & Miller’s (M&M) Propositions I and II in a world with no taxes and no bankruptcy risk, assume Firm A is an all-equity firm with a required return on its assets (Ra) of 10%. Firm B is a levered firm and can borrow in the debt market at 7% (Rd). If M&M’s proposition II holds, what is the cost of equity and the WACC if Firm B is levered to 50% debt: is this capital structure better for Firm B? Show your calculations.arrow_forwardThe assets of company X have a beta equal to 1. Assume that the company's debt has a beta equal to 0.5 and that X's equity has a beta equal to 2. Consider an investor who holds 10% of the company's total debt liabilities and 10% of the company's equity. The beta of the investor's portfolio is equal to A) 0.1 B)1 C) 0.25 D) 1.25arrow_forward
