Suppose there are perfect capital markets with taxes. Investors expect a company to have $120 earnings before interest and taxes in one year. This company has a 25% tax rate, $100 market value of debt, and 20 shares outstanding. This company’s net working capital, depreciation expense, and capital expenditures are all expected to be zero in perpetuity. Investors expect this company to have the same earnings before interest and taxes, market value of debt, tax rate, and number of shares outstanding in perpetuity. The firm’s unlevered cost of equity is 8% and its cost of debt is 5%. Based on this information, what amount would you expect this company’s share price to be closest to?
$5
$20

Q.An unlevered company that has a current value of $1,600,000 is considering borrowing $700,000 and using the borrowed funds to repurchase shares. The company can borrow at 5% and has a cost of equity of 13%. EBIT is expected to remain the same every year forever. Assume all available earnings are immediately distributed to common shareholders and all the M&M assumptions are satisfied. What is the company's EBIT according to M&M Proposition I without taxes?
Q.An all-equity company is considering borrowing $10,000,000 and using the borrowed funds to repurchase shares. The company's cost of equity is 9%. EBIT is expected to be $3,600,000 every year forever. Assume all available earnings are immediately distributed to common shareholders and all the M&M assumptions are satisfied. If the company proceeds with the capital restructing, what will be the value of the company according to M&M Proposition I without taxes?
