The Rogers Company is currently in this situation: (1) EBIT = $4.7 million; (2) tax rate, T = 40%; (3) value of debt, D = $2 million; (4) rd = 10%; (5) rs = 15%; (6) shares of stock outstanding, n = 600,000; and stock price, P = $30 Suppose the firm can increase its debt so that its capital structure has 50% debt, based on market values (it will issue debt and buy back stock). At this level of debt, its cost of equity rises to 18.5% and its interest rate on all debt will rise to 12% (it will have to call and refund the old debt). What is the WACC under this capital structure? What is the total value? How much debt will it issue, and what is the stock price after the repurchase? How many shares will remain outstanding after the repurchase?

Consider a firm with an EBITDA of $900,000 and an EBIT of $800,000. The firm finances its assets with $4,610,000 debt (costing 7.1 percent, all of which is tax deductible) and 211,000 shares of stock selling at $15 per share. To reduce risk associated with this financial leverage, the firm is considering reducing its debt by $2,610,000 by selling additional shares of stock. The firm’s tax rate is 21 percent. The change in capital structure will have no effect on the operations of the firm. Thus, EBIT will remain at $800,000. Calculate the EPS before and after the change in capital structure and indicate changes in EPS. Note: Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to 2 decimal places.
