E is the exercise price
C is the call price
R is the risk-free rate
t is the period of maturity
Calculate the call price or equity:
Hence, the call price or equity is $36,116.35.
Formula to calculate price of “put-option” using call-put parity (P):
Calculate the price of “put-option” using call-put parity (P):
Hence, the price of “put-option” is $15,491.40.
Formula to compute the value of risky bond:
Compute the value of risky bond:
Hence, the value of the risky bond is $40,883.65.
Formula to compute the value of debt:
Hence, the value of debt is 13.43%.
The impact of time period on the bondholder’s yield:
The yields on debt show 11.33% with 34% standard deviation and 13.43% with 43% standard deviation. Here, the increase of “standard deviation” increases the value of debt. This is the reason for increasing the yield on debt from $11.33% to $13.43%. However, the risk to earn the return also increases proportionately.
e)
To discuss: The impact of bondholders and shareholders, if the firm restructures its assets and how this creates an agency problem.
Introduction:
Value of equity is the amount that comprises of the firm’s capital structure as equity shares. It is the total contribution of the equity shareholders to the firm. Value of debt is the amount that comprises of the firm’s capital structure as debt. It is the total contribution of the debt-holders to the firm.

Explanation of Solution
Formula to calculate gain or loss of shareholders and bondholders:
Calculate the gain or loss of shareholders:
Hence, the gain of shareholders is $4,512.27.
Calculate the gain or loss of bondholders:
Hence, the loss of bondholders is -$4,512.27.
The impact of a firm’s reconstruction to shareholders and bondholders:
Reconstruction is favorable to shareholders. However, it creates an agency problem to bondholders. The company management is acting favorably to shareholders. They increased the wealth of shareholders by diluting the absolute amount of wealth from the bondholders. Therefore, this reconstruction is helpful to shareholders and difficult for bondholders.
