Assume you have just been hired as business manager of PizzaPalace, a pizza restaurant located adjacent to campus. The company's EBIT was $500,000 last year, and since the university's enrollment is capped, EBIT is expected to remain constant over time. Since no expansion capital will be required, PizzaPalace plans to pay out all earnings as dividends. The management group owns about 50% of the stock, and the stock is traded in the OTC market. The firm is currently financed with all equity; it has 100,000 shares outstanding; and P0 = $25 per share. When you took your MBA Financial Analysis course, your instructor stated that most firms' owners would be financially better off if the firms used some debt. When you suggested this to your new boss, he encouraged you to pursue the idea. As a first step, assume that you obtained from the firm's investment banker the following estimated costs of debt for the firm at different capital structures: % Debt Ratio rd 0% --- 20 8.0% 30 8.5 40 9.0 50 9.5 If the company were to recapitalize, debt would be issued, and the funds received would be used to repurchase stock. PizzaPalace is in the 40% state-plus-federal corporate tax bracket, its beta is 1.0 when debt ratio is 0%, the risk-free rate is 6%, and the market risk premium is 6%.

a. For each capital structure under consideration, calculate the WACC.

b. Now calculate the corporate value, the value of the debt that will be issued, and the resulting market value of equity.

Business leaders live by the calendar, attaching forecasts, projects and goals to a specific date or period of time. No one knows how the crisis will play out or even when state-issued mandates to stay at home will lift. For CEOs, it is like stumbling around in the dark. When Bahram Akradi, founder of the Life Time health-club chain, closed more than 150 clubs in 30 states, he recorded a video message to employees. He said Life Time could weather a two-week shutdown without breaking much of a sweat. After that, he’d have to get creative. It is a classic case of decision-making under uncertainty!
