McConn Manufacturing is currently all-equity financed, has an EBIT of $2 million, and has a corporate tax rate of 21 percent. Natalie, the company’s founder, is the lone shareholder. All earnings are paid out as dividends to Natalie. If the firm were to convert $4 million of equity into debt, the cost would be 10 percent and Natalie would hold all the debt. Assume Natalie pays personal taxes on interest income at a rate of 37 percent but pays taxes on dividends at a rate of 20 percent. Calculate the total cash flow to Natalie after she pays personal taxes if the firm is unlevered and if it is levered
Griffin Doors earns $1 million in annual EBIT in perpetuity on its $5million in assets. After making repairs to assets to exactly offset depreciation, all earnings are paid out as dividends.

How much is Griffin Doors worth to its owners?
If the company borrows $1 million and uses that money to buy back shares from the owners, how will this affect the value of the firm? Be specific.

The company is considering two alternatives to raise the $8 million: (1) sell common stock at $20 per share, or (2) Sell bonds at a 12% coupon, each $1,000 bond carrying 25 warrants to buy common stock at $30 per share.
