Degree of financial leverage

c$-2.$ The degree of financial leverage for all three methods after expansion. Assume sales of $$8\mathrm{.}4$ million for this question.

Note: Round your answers to $2$ decimal places.

d$.$ Compute EPS under all three methods of financing the expansion at $$8\mathrm{.}4$ million in sales $($first year$)$ and $$10\mathrm{.}2$ million in sales $($last

year$).$

Sales $ $7,400,000$

Variable costs $(50\%$ of sales$)3,700,000$

Fixed costs $2,040,000$

Earnings before interest and taxes $($EBIT$)$ $ $1,660,000$

Interest $(10\%$ cost$)680,000$

Earnings before taxes $($EBT$)$ $ $980,000$

Tax $(30\%)294,000$

Earnings after taxes $($EAT$)$ $ $686,000$

Shares of common stock $440,000$

Earnings per share $ $1\mathrm{.}56$

The company is currently financed with $50$ percent debt and $50$ percent equity $($common stock, par value of $$10).$ In order to expand the facilities, Mr$.$ Delsing estimates a need for $$4\mathrm{.}4$ million in additional financing. His investment banker has laid out three plans for him to consider:

Sell $$4\mathrm{.}4$ million of debt at $14$ percent.

Sell $$4\mathrm{.}4$ million of common stock at $$20$ per share.

Sell $$2\mathrm{.}20$ million of debt at $13$ percent and $$2\mathrm{.}20$ million of common stock at $$25$ per share.

Variable costs are expected to stay at $50$ percent of sales, while fixed expenses will increase to $$2,540,000$ per year. Delsing is not sure how much this expansion will add to sales, but he estimates that sales will rise by $$1$ million per year for the next five years.

Delsing is interested in a thorough analysis of his expansion plans and methods of financing.He would like you to analyze the following:

a$.$ The break$-$even point for operating expenses before and after expansion $($in sales dollars$).$

Note: Enter your answers in dollars not in millions, i$.$e$,$ $$1,234,567.$

b$.$ The degree of operating leverage before and after expansion. Assume sales of $$7\mathrm{.}4$ million before expansion and $$8\mathrm{.}4$ million after expansion. Use the formula: DOL$=($S$$TVC$)($S$$TVC$$FC$)$
