Total Market Value of the Firm
Not what you're looking for?
I am a consultant and I have collected the following information regarding a Publishing Company:
Total Assets $3,000 Million Tax Rate 40%
Opearting Income (EBIT) $800 Million Debt Ratio 0%
Interest Expense $0 Million WACC 10%
Net income $480 Million M/B Ratio $1.00H
Share Price $32.00 EPS = DPS $3.20
The company has no growth opportunities (g = 0), so the company pays out all of its earnings as dividends (EPS = DPS).
I believe as a Consultant if the company move to a capital structure financed with 20 percent debt and 80 percent equity (based on market values) that the cost of equity will increase to 11 percent and that the pre-tax cost of debt will be 10 percent.
If the company makes this change, what would be the total market value of firm?
