Problem 2-31 Spreadsheet Problem: Income Statement (LG2-1) Consider a firm with an EBITDA of $15,600,000 and an EBIT of $11,800,000. The firm finances its assets with $52,600,000 debt (costing 7.3 percent all of which is tax deductible) and 11,300,000 shares of stock selling at $8.00 per share. The firm is considering increasing its debt by $26,000,000, using the proceeds to buy back shares of stock. The firm's tax rate is 21 percent. The change in capital structure will have no effect on the operations of the firm. Thus, EBIT will remain at $11,800,000. Calculate the EPS before and after the change in capital structure and indicate changes in EPS. Note: For "Change in EPS", note negative changes with a negative sign. Round your answers to 3 decimal places. Answer is complete but not entirely correct. EPS before $ 0.557 EPS after 0.595 Change in EPS $ 0.038
