Lee Manufacturing’s value of operations is equal to $900 million after a recapitalization


(the firm had no debt before the recap). Lee raised $300 million in new debt and used
this to buy back stock. Lee had no short-term investments before or after the recap.
After the recap, wd = 1/3. The firm had 30 million shares before the recap. What is P
(the stock price after the recap)?
Answer :
S = (1 − 𝑤𝑑 )(𝑉𝑜𝑝 ) = (1 − 1/3)($900) = $600 million.
P = [S + (𝐷 − 𝐷0 )] / 𝑛0 = [$600 + ($300 - $0)] / 30 = $30

Dye Trucking raised $150 million in new debt and used this to buy back stock. After
the recap, Dye’s stock price is $7.50. If Dye had 60 million shares of stock before the
recap, how many shares does it have after the recap?
Answer :
𝑛 = 𝑛0 − (𝐷/𝑃) = 60 − ($150/$7.5) = 60 − 20 = 40 𝑚𝑖𝑙𝑙𝑖𝑜𝑛

Pettit Printing Company has a total market value of $100 million, consisting of 1 million
shares selling for $50 per share and $50 million of 10% perpetual bonds now selling
at par. The company’s EBIT is $13.24 million, and its tax rate is 15%. Pettit can change
its capital structure either by increasing its debt to 70% (based on market values) or
decreasing it to 30%. If it decides to increase its use of leverage, it must call its old
bonds and issue new ones with a 12% coupon. If it decides to decrease its leverage,
it will call its old bonds and replace them with new 8% coupon bonds. The company
will sell or repurchase stock at the new equilibrium price to complete the capital
structure change.
The firm pays out all earnings as dividends; hence its stock is a zero-growth stock. Its
current cost of equity, rs, is 14%. If it increases leverage, rs will be 16%. If it decreases
leverage, rs will be 13%. What is the firm’s WACC and total corporate value under
each capital structure?
Answer :
a. Present Situation (50% debt)
WACC= 𝑤𝑑 𝑟𝑑 (1 − 𝑇) + 𝑤𝑐𝑒 𝑟𝑠
= (0.5)(10%)(1-0.15) + (0.5)(14%) = 11.25%
𝐹𝐶𝐹 (𝐸𝐵𝐼𝑇)(1−𝑇) ($13.24)(1−0.15)
𝑉 𝑊𝐴𝐶𝐶 = = = $100 million
𝑊𝐴𝐶𝐶 0.1125

70 percent debt:
WACC= 𝑤𝑑 𝑟𝑑 (1 − 𝑇) + 𝑤𝑐𝑒 𝑟𝑠
= (0.7)(12%)(1-0.15) + (0.3)(16%) = 11.94%
𝐹𝐶𝐹 (𝐸𝐵𝐼𝑇)(1−𝑇) ($13.24)(1−0.15)
𝑉 𝑊𝐴𝐶𝐶 = = = $94.225 million
𝑊𝐴𝐶𝐶 0.1194

30 percent debt:
WACC= 𝑤𝑑 𝑟𝑑 (1 − 𝑇) + 𝑤𝑐𝑒 𝑟𝑠
= (0.3)(8%)(1-0.15) + (0.7)(13%) = 11.14%
𝐹𝐶𝐹 (𝐸𝐵𝐼𝑇)(1−𝑇) ($13.24)(1−0.15)
𝑉 𝑊𝐴𝐶𝐶 = = = $101.023 million
𝑊𝐴𝐶𝐶 0.1114
