DELSING CANNING COMPANY IS CONSIDERING AN EXPANSION OF ITS FACILITIES. ITS CURRENT INCOME STATEMENT IS AS FOLLOWS:

SALES............................................................................ 7,100,100
VARIABLE COSTS (50% OF SALES).............................3,550,000
FIXED COSTS.................................................................2,010,000
EBIT.................................................................................1,540,000

SHARES COMMON STOCK..............................................410,000
EPS...........................................................................................1.57

The company is currently financed with 50% debt and 50% equity (common stock, par value of $10). In order to expand the facilities, Mr. Delsing estimates a need for $4.1 million in additional financing. His investment banker has laid out three plans for him to consider:
1) Sell $4.1 million of debt at 11%
2) Sell $4.1 million of common stock at $20 per share
3) Sell $2.05 million of debt at 10% and $2.05 million of common stock at $25 per share.

Variable costs are expected to stay at 50% of sales, while fixed expenses will increase to $2,510,000 per year. Delsing is not sure how much this expansion will add to sales, but he estimates sales will rise by $2.05 million per year for the next 5 years.

Delsing is interested in a thorough analysis of his expansion plans and methods of financing. He would like you to analyze the following:
