a. (7 marks) ACE Company has no debt and 1 Million shares @ $10/sh and is considering a $4 Million expansion by issuing perpetual debt with an 8% interest rate. Calculate the EPS for the expanded firm at EBIT of SSOOK pa and then compare it to the EPS of an all equity financed expansion (assuming new equity is issued @ $10/sh.) Use a graph of EPS vs. EBIT to illustrate your answer, calculate the intercepts and indifference point. b. (4 marks) If taxes are 40%, calculate their effect on (). C. (4 marks) Calculate the Financial Leverage (F.L.) at EBIT of S1.12 M for the levered expansion alternative in (a) (no taxes). Explain and check your answer by calculating EPS at 2.12 M EBIT using the clasticity definition of F.L. d. (4 marks) Repeat (e) for EBIT of $500K and explain the differences to your answer in (c) e. (4 marks) Calculate the probability the levered alternative has a higher E.P.S. if EBIT is normally distributed with mean $1 Million and standard deviation of S0.2 Million a.
