Explanation / Answer

A What is the current value of the company

With no debt, we are finding the value of an unlevered firm, so:

VU

= $30800(1 - 0.35)/0.14

=$143,000

B-1 Suppose the company can borrow at 9 percent. What will the value of the firm be if the company takes on debt equal to 50 percent of its unlevered value?
If debt is 50 % of VU, then D = (0.50) VU,

and we have:•VL= VU+ TC[(.50)VU]

VL

= $143000 + 0.35(71500)

=$168025

B-2 Suppose the company can borrow at 9 percent. What will the value of the firm be if the company takes on debt equal to 100 percent of its unlevered value

If debt is 100 % of VU, then D = (0.50) VU,

and we have:•VL= VU+ TC[(1)VU]

VL

= $143000 + 0.35(143000)

=$193050

C1 What will the value of the firm be if the company takes on debt equal to 50 percent of its levered value


According to M&M Proposition I with taxes

VL= VU+ TCD

With debt being 50% of the value of the levered firm,D must equal (0.50)VL,

so:VL= VU+ TC[(.50)VL]

VL= $143000 + 0.35(0.50)(VL)

= $173333.33

C2

What will the value of the firm be if the company takes on debt equal to 100 percent of its levered value

If the debt is 100% of the levered value, D must equalVL,

so:VL= VU+ TC[(1)(VL]

VL= $143000+ 0.35(1.0)(VL)

= $220000
