Explanation / Answer

c2. Value of equity = Value of company / (Debt-equity ratio + 1)

= $32,948,517.90 / (3 + 1)

= $8,237,129.48

c3. Value of debt = Value of company - Value of equity

= $32,948,517.90 - $8,237,129.48

= $24,711,388.42

d. Cashflow to equity = [Sales * (1 - variable cost) - Cost of debt] * (1 - Tax rate)

= [$17,600,000 * (1 - 60%) - $24,711,388.42 * 7.1%] * (1 - 40%)

= $3,171,294.85

Value of equity = Cashflow to equity / cost of equity

= $3,171,294.85 / 14%

= $22,652,106.10
