A recession is anticipated to lower GDP by 4.0%. Orange Inc. believes that its sales will drop 2.0% under these conditions. Orange currently has a Return on Assets of 8% and its annual Fixed Costs are 20% of its assets. Orange is completely financed by equity.
(a) Discuss if Orange is a cyclical company.
(b) Calculate the effect of the recession on Orange’s stock return.
(c) How would your results be different if Orange were partly debt-financed?
Your company doesn't face any taxes and has $755 million in assets, currently financed entirely with equity. Equity is worth $50.50 per share, and book value of equity is equal to market value of equity. Also, let's assume that the firm's expected values for EBIT depend upon which state of the economy occurs this year, with the possible values of EBIT and their associated probabilities as shown below:
State
Recession
Average
Boom
Probability of State
.20
.60

Expect EBIT in State
$105 million
$180 million
$240 million
The firm is considering switching to a 20-percent debt capital structure, and has determined that they would have to pay a 10 percent yield on perpetual debt in either event. What will be the standard deviation in EPS if they switch to the proposed capital structure? (Round your intermediate calculations and final answer to 2 decimal places except calculation of number of shares which should be rounded to nearest whole number.)
Minion, Inc., has no debt outstanding and a total market value of $240,000. Earnings before interest and taxes, EBIT, are projected to be $28,000 if economic conditions are normal. If there is strong expansion in the economy, then EBIT will be 10 percent higher. If there is a recession, then EBIT will be 25 percent lower. The company is considering a $48,000 debt issue with an interest rate of 4 percent. The proceeds will be used to repurchase shares of stock. There are currently 20,000 shares outstanding. Ignore taxes for this problem. a-2. Calculate the percentage changes in EPS when the economy expands or enters a recession. (A negative answer should be indicated by a minus sign.
