Info Systems Technology (IST) manufactures microprocessor chips for use in appliances and other applications. IST has no debt and 50 million shares outstanding. The correct price for these shares is either $15.75 or $13.75 per share. Investors view both possibilities as equally likely, so the shares currently trade for $14.75. IST must raise $550 million to build a new production facility. Because the firm would suffer a large loss of both customers and engineering talent in the event of financial distress, managers believe that if IST borrows the $550 million, the present value of financial distress costs will exceed any tax benefits by $10 million.
