- Assume a Modigliani and Miller economy. Company XYZ is currently financed only withequity. The management of the company hires a consultant. The consultant makes thefollowing suggestion: “My advice for XYZ is to issue debt and use it to repurchase some ofthe company’s equity. This would allow XYZ to get the benefit of a low cost of capital ofdebt without raising its cost of capital of equity.”Discuss in detail the statement of the consultant.Manny Delgado is interviewing with the Bank of MF for a financial analyst position. The interviewer is interested in knowing whether he understands the EV-to-EBITDA multiple. Delgado explains that the enterprise value is determined by the market value of equity and total debt.

Delgado suggests that we need to subtract the investments on working capital and PPE when calculating the free cash flow to the firm. He further explains the reason we do so is due to the interest tax shield that the investments on working capital and PPE would create.
