A firm will earn a taxable net return of $500 million nextyear. If it took on debt today, it would have to paycreditors\varepsilon(rDebt) = 5% + 10% x wDebt2.

If the firmis fullyequity-financed, what is its value? 2. Using APV, if the firmis financed with equal amounts of debt and equity today,what is its value? 3. Using WACC, if the firm is financed withequal amounts of debt and equity today, what is its value?4. Does this firm have an optimal capital structure? If so,what is its APV and WACC?
