Consider a firm with an EBIT of $557,000. The firm finances its assets with $1,070,000 debt (costing 6.2 percent) and 207,000 shares of stock selling at $14.00 per share. The firm is considering increasing its debt by $900,000, using the proceeds to buy back 82,000 shares of stock. The firm is in the 30 percent tax bracket. The change in capital structure will have no effect on the operations of the firm. Thus, EBIT will remain at $557,000.
