- Consider the trade-off theory of capital structure and the market timing theory in answering this question. A company can borrow at a favourable rate due to low interest rates but chooses not to do so due to the increased financial risk. Instead, it issues equity, despite the market not valuing its equity in excess of the company’s internal valuation. Required: Discuss which of the two abovementioned theories prevailed and provide a motivation for your answer.Which of the following statements is FALSE? A. Equity cost of capital is normally higher then cost of debt, thus cost of debt can be examined in isolation. B. No matter if a firm is unlevered or levered, there is no difference in the market value of the firms total securities and market value of the firm’s assets. C. Introducing debt increases the risk even though it may be cheap and consequently increases firms equity cost of capital. D. Cost of Capital of equity and Leverage can be explicitly explained by first proposition that Modigliani and Miller introduced.The disadvantages of debt to the corporation include all but which of the following? Group of answer choices A. Indenture agreements may place burdensome restrictions on the firm. B. Interest and principal payments must be met regardless of performance results. C. Debt may have to be paid back with "cheaper" dollars because of inflation. D. Too much debt may depress the firm's stock price.
- Case study: Debt vs. Equity Holders Companies obtain their funds from two sources: debt and equity. The providers of these funds are protected in different ways. Debtholders have specific contracts with the company, and if the company defaults they have recourse ahead of shareholders.Shareholders are the bearers of residual risk and in return for the uncertainty this creates, equity finance is more expensive than debtfinance- reflecting the risk premium and risk appetite of the shareholders. But, because the shareholders come last and it is not clear what they are entitled to, they operate in conditions of an incomplete contract.Question:If the shareholders’ position is not protected by a contract-unlike the provider of debt- how is it in fact made viable? Discuss.Regarding the EPS fallacy, which of the following statements is correct: a. When a company issues debt and uses all the proceeds to buy back equity and as a result EPS rises, the fact that some analysts associate the rise of EPS to an improvement in the company's performance is called the EPS fallacy. b. All given statements are correct. c. One of the reasons behind the EPS fallacy is not to take into account that when EPS rises mechanically due to a leveraged recapitalisation, the cost of equity also rises in the same proportion and the share price does not change (assume no taxes and perfect capital markets world). d. Suppose companies A and B have identical cash flows but different capital structures. Suppose further that EPS(A) > EPS(B). We cannot conclude that A has a better performance than B.A company will prefer debt in its capital structure, if (tick the most appropriate alternative) (a) It wants to dilute control (b) Stock market conditions are bullish (c) Tax rates are high (d) It has already used its debt potential to the full.
- Why is the cost of retained earnings cheaper than the cost of issuing new common stock? Group of answer choices Issuing new common stock may send a negative signal to the capital markets, which may depress the stock price. When a company issues new common stock they also have to pay flotation costs to the underwriter. Either NeitherCompanies that face large investments they cannot finance internally through the retention of earnings must go to the financial market to raise the needed funds. When they do this, they will incur what are commonly referred to as floatation costs. Discuss how these floatation costs should be incorporated into the firm’s analysis of net present valueWhich of the following statements is FALSE? As debt increases, the risk associated with bankruptcy and agency costs is reduced. Debt is often the least costly form of financing for a firm. Firms should probably use some debt in their capital structure. Different firms are subject to different levels of risk.
- There are advantages and disadvantages of debt financing in contrast to equity financing. Which of the following is less likely to represent an advantage of debt financing? a. The cost of debt should be lower than the cost of equity for most companies due to the lower risk to the lender and the tax deductibility of interest b. The repayment of debt capital may affect the liquidity of the company c. If the return on assets exceeds the cost of debt, then this will result in a higher return on shareholders’ funds as compared to the return on assets d. The increase in borrowings will not normally affect the voting control of the current shareholders as compared to the issue of shares e. Fixed interest rate loans will result in the variability in the market value of such loans over time which will normally be less than the variability in the value of the equity of the companyWhich of the following statements is NOT CORRECT? a. The cost of retained earnings is less than the cost of new common stock due to flotation costs. While retained earnings may appear to be free money on the surface, there is an opportunity cost to them as these funds could be invested elsewhere and earning a return for shareholders. Due to the lower cost of retained earnings, companies generally prefer to use retained earnings to finance their projects, and only issue new common stock when they absolutely must. b. There are two ways to raise common equity. One source is retained earnings that involves bringing in new funds from outside the company, which represents external equity. The second source is new stock issues that involves bringing in new funds from current stockholders of the company, which represents internal equity. c. Flotation costs reduce the amount of capital the firm receives from a new stock issue. The company must make each…Which of the following is correct a. In a leveraged recapitalization, a firm uses its excess cash to buyback shares b. In an LBO, a firm borrows and repurchases its shares thereby reducng the number of shares outstanding. c. In a leveraged recapitalization, a change of ownership occurs as the firm is sold d. In an LBO, debt is a major component of the financing and a change of control occurs. e. In an LBO, managers use excess cash to repurchase shares
