In: Finance
market value of equity (Ve) = $10*20m = $200 million
market value of debt (Vd) = $800m
a. Weighted average cost of capital formula = (Vd/(Vd+Ve)*pertax cost of debt*(1-tax rate)) + (Ve/(Vd+Ve)*cost of equity*(1-tax rate))
cost of equity = risk free rate + beta*(equity risk premium) = 3% + 3.06*5% = 18.3%
Putting the values in the above formula
Cost of capital = 8.5%
b. New Market value of equity after issuance of 20m new shares = $10*20m + $200m= $400m
New Market Value of Debt = $800m-$200m = $600m
Hence Vd = $600m/($600m+$400m) = 60%
Similarly Ve = 40%
So new cost of capital = 10.0%
c. Market Value of Equity = $400m (calculated in b)
WACC = 10.0%
g = 2%
Debt =$600m
Market Value of the firm = $600m + $400m =$1000m
Hence, Market Value of firm assuming Perpetual Growth of 2% = 1000*(1+2%)/(10%-2%) = $12750m
Market Value of Equity = $12750m - $600m = $12150m
Per Share Value = $12150m/40m = $303.75
