Problem 6
WACC and Optimal Capital Structure

F. Pierce Products Inc. is considering changing its capital structure. F. Pierce currently has no debt and no preferred stock, but would like to add some debt to take advantage of low interest rates and the tax shield. Its investment banker has indicated that the pre-tax cost of debt under various possible capital structures would be as follows:

Market Debt- to-Value Ratio (w_d)	Market Equity-to-Value Ratio (w_s)	Market Debt- to-Equity Ratio (D/S)	Before-Tax Cost of Debt (r_d)
0.0	1.0	0.00	7.0%
0.2	0.8	0.25	8.0
0.4	0.6	0.67	10.0
0.6	0.4	1.50	12.0
0.8	0.2	4.00	15.0

F. Pierce uses the CAPM to estimate its cost of common equity, rs. The company estimates that the risk-free rate is 6%, the market risk premium is 6%, and the company's tax rate is 30%. F. Pierce estimates that its beta now (which is "unlevered" since it currently has no debt) is 1.15. Based on this information, what is the firm's optimal capital structure, and what would the weighted average cost of capital be at the optimal capital structure? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to two decimal places.

Problem 7

Capital Structure Analysis

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 $12.92 million, and its tax rate is 15%. Pettit can change its capital structure either by increasing its debt to 65% (based on market values) or decreasing it to 35%. 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 in its old bonds and replace them with new 7% 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%.
