Value of the firm            $

Suppose now that the company’s tax rate is 40 percent. What will its overall value be if it sells $34.8 million in debt? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer in dollars, not millions of dollars, e.g., 1,234,567. Round your answer to the nearest whole number, e.g., 32.)

Value of the firm            $   

Explanation / Answer

1)

Value of the firm:

= Value of unlevered firm+Debt*Tax rate

= $75.60 million+$34.80*0%

= $75,600,000 million

2)

Value of the firm:

= Value of unlevered firm+Debt*Tax rate

= $75.60 million+$34.80*40%

= $89,520,000 million
