The company is planning an expansion that is expected to cost $800,000. The expansion can be financed with new equity (sold to net the company $7 per share) or with the sale of new bonds at an interest rate of 12 percent. (The firms marginal tax rate is 40%.) Use Table V to answer the questions.

• Compute the indifference point between the two financing alternatives. Round your answer to the nearest dollar. $

• If the expected level of EBIT for the firm is $250,000 with a standard deviation of $60,000, what is the probability that the debt financing alternative will produce higher earnings than the equity alternative? (EBIT is normally distributed.) Round your answer to two decimal places. 10.123% would be entered as 10.12 %

• If the debt alternative is chosen, what is the probability that the company will have negative earnings per share in any period? Round your answer to two decimal places.
