- Consider a simple firm that has the following market-value balance sheet: Assets Liabilities & Equity $1,000 Debt $400 Equity 600 Next year, there are two possible values for its assets, each equally likely: $1,190 and $960. Its debt will be due with 5.1% interest. Because all of the cash flows from the assets must go either to the debt or the equity, if you hold a portfolio of the debt and equity in the same proportions as the firm's capital structure, your portfolio should earn exactly the expected return on the firm's assets. Show that a portfolio invested 40% in the firm's debt and 60% in its equity will have the same expected return as the assets of the firm. That is, show that the firm's WACC is the same as the expected return on its assets. If the assets will be worth $1,190 in one year, the expected return on assets will be 19 %.

- You have the following initial information on which to base your calculations and discussion: Debt yield = 2.5% Required Rate of Return on Equity = 13% Expected return on S&P500 = 8% Risk-free rate (rF) = 1.5% Inflation = 2.5% Corporate tax rate (TC) = 30% Current long-term and target debt-equity ratio (D:E) = 1:3 a. What is the unlevered cost of equity (rE*) for this firm? Assume that the management of the firm is considering a leveraged buyout of the above company. They believe that they can gear the company to a higher level due to their ability to extract efficiencies from the firm’s operations. Thus, they wish to use a target debt-equity ratio of 3:1 in their valuation calculations.You have the following information on a company on which to base your calculations and discussion: Cost of equity capital (rE) = 18.55% Cost of debt (rD) = 7.85% Expected market premium (rM –rF) = 8.35% Risk-free rate (rF) = 5.95% Inflation = 0% Corporate tax rate (TC) = 35% Current long-term and target debt-equity ratio (D:E) = 2:5 a.

- What is the size of debt for each firm? Assume that cost of debt = 8%; unlevered cost of capital = 10%; systematic risk of the asset is 1.5Can you please answer this part c follow up question: c) Suppose the initial £90,000 is raised by borrowing at the risk-free interest rateinstead of issuing equity. What are the cash flows to equity and debt holders, andwhat is the initial value of the levered equity according to Modigliani and Miller’sPropositions? Is the company’s cost of equity the same as before? Overall, can thecompany raise the same amount of capital as before? Explain your reasoning.You are given the following information for a firm: EBIT x (1-T) this period Depreciation Net Working Capital Increase Asset Beta Capital Expenditures Growth Rate of FCF Risk Free Rate = = $17 million $2.4 million $0 1.1 $3.7 million 9% 3% Market Risk Premium Using the above data, what is the present value of all FCF? Don't forget that in applying the growing perpetuity formula, you have to use not this year's FCF, but next period's FCF (multiply this period's FCF by (1 + growth rate of FCF). 6.3% Your answer should be in $millions. For example, if your answer is $7.34 million, then enter 7.34 in the answer box.
