Suppose there are no taxes. Firm ABC has no debt, and firm XYZ has debt of

$ 2 comma 000$2,000

9 %9%

each year. Both companies have identical projects that generate free cash flows of

$ 1 comma 000$1,000

or

$ 1 comma 200$1,200

each year. After paying any interest on debt, both companies use all remaining free cash flows to pay dividends each year.
