Textbook Question
Chapter 16, Problem 24P
You own your own firm, and you want to raise $30 million to fund an expansion. Currently, you own 100% of the firm's equity, and the firm has no debt. To raise the $30 million solely through equity, you will need to sell two-thirds of the firm. However, you would prefer to maintain at least a 50% equity stake in the firm to retain control.
- a. If you borrow $20 million, what fraction of the equity will you need to sell to raise the remaining $10 million? (Assume perfect capital markets.)
- b. What is the smallest amount you can borrow to raise the $30 million without giving up control? (Assume perfect capital markets.)

- Assume you have just been hired as a business manager of PizzaPalace, a regional pizza restaurant chain. The companys EBIT was 120 million last year and is not expected to grow. PizzaPalace is in the 25% state-plus-federal tax bracket, the risk-free rate is 6 percent, and the market risk premium is 6 percent. The firm is currently financed with all equity, and it has 10 million shares outstanding. When you took your corporate finance course, your instructor stated that most firms owners would be financially better off if the firms used some debt. When you suggested this to your new boss, he encouraged you to pursue the idea. If the company were to recapitalize, then debt would be issued, and the funds received would be used to repurchase stock. As a first step, assume that you obtained from the firms investment banker the following estimated costs of debt for the firm at different capital structures: a. Using the free cash flow valuation model, show the only avenues by which capital structure can affect value.arrow_forwardBayani Bakerys most recent FCF was 48 million; the FCF is expected to grow at a constant rate of 6%.

The intrinsic stock price?arrow_forwardRandys, a family-owned restaurant chain operating in Alabama, has grown to the point that expansion throughout the entire Southeast is feasible. The proposed expansion would require the firm to raise about 18.3 million in new capital. Because Randys currently has a debt ratio of 50% and because family members already have all their personal wealth invested in the company, the family would like to sell common stock to the public to raise the 18.3 million. However, the family wants to retain voting control. You have been asked to brief family members on the issues involved by answering the following questions: Describe the typical first-day return of an IPO and the long-term returns to IPO investors.arrow_forward
