LEARNING OBJECTIVES

Capital Structure: Basic Definitions
• V = value of firm
• FCF = free cash flow
• WACC = weighted average cost of
capital
• rs and rd are costs of stock and debt
• re and wd are percentages of the firm
that are financed with stock and debt.

www.rsb.edu.in
• Impact of indirect costs
– NOPAT goes down due to lost customers
and drop in productivity
– Investment in capital goes up due to
increase in net operating working capital
(accounts payable goes up as suppliers
tighten credit).
(Continued…)
www.rsb.edu.in
• Additional debt can affect the behavior of
managers.
– Reductions in agency costs: debt or “bonds,”
free cash flow for use in making interest
payments. Thus, managers are less likely to
waste FCF on perquisites or non-value adding
acquisitions.
– Increases in agency costs: debt can make
managers too risk-averse, causing
“underinvestment” in risky but positive NPV
projects.

What is business risk?
High risk
0 E(EBIT) EBIT
Note that business risk focuses on operating
income, so it ignores financing effects.

What is operating leverage ?
(More...)
• Higher operating leverage leads to more
business risk, because a small sales
decline causes a larger EBIT decline.

• Business risk:
– Uncertainty in future EBIT.
– Depends on business factors such as competition,
operating leverage, etc.
• Financial risk:
– Additional business risk concentrated on common
stockholders when financial leverage is used.
– Depends on the amount of debt and preferred stock
financing.

Conclusions
www.rsb.edu.in
For leverage to be positive (increase
expected ROE), BEP must be > rd.
If rd > BEP, the cost of leveraging will be
higher than the inherent profitability of the
assets, so the use of financial leverage will
depress net income and ROE.
In the example, E(BEP) = 15% while
interest rate = 12%, so leveraging “works.”

Capital Structure Theory
• MM theory
– Zero taxes
– Corporate taxes
– Corporate and personal taxes
• Trade-off theory
• Signaling theory
• Debt financing as a managerial constraint

Tc = corporate tax rate.
Td = personal tax rate on debt income.
Ts = personal tax rate on stock income.

Tc = 40%, Td = 30%, and Ts = 12%.

VL = VU + 1 - (1 - 0.40)(1 - 0.12) D

Debt Financing and Agency Costs
www.rsb.edu.in
• A second agency problem is the
potential for “underinvestment”.
– Debt increases risk of financial distress.
– Therefore, managers may avoid risky
projects even if they have positive NPVs.

The WACC for wd = 20%
• WACC = wd (1-T) rd + we rs
• WACC = 0.2 (1 – 0.4) (8%) + 0.8 (12.9%)
• WACC = 11.28%
www.rsb.edu.in
Corporate Value for wd = 20%
• V = FCF / (WACC-g)
• g=0, so investment in capital is zero; so
FCF = NOPAT = EBIT (1-T).
• NOPAT = ($500,000)(1-0.40) = $300,000.

Number of Shares Repurchased
• # Repurchased = (D - D0) / P

Optimal Capital Structure
• wd = 30% gives:
– Highest corporate value
– Lowest WACC
– Highest stock price per share
• But wd = 40% is close. Optimal range
is pretty flat.
www.rsb.edu.in
What other factors would managers consider when
setting the target capital structure?
www.rsb.edu.in
• Reserve borrowing capacity.
• Effects on control.
• Type of assets: Are they tangible, and
hence suitable as collateral?
• Tax rates.
www.rsb.edu.in
Learning outcome
• The goal of the capital structure decision is to determine
the financial leverage that maximizes the value of the
company (or minimizes the weighted average cost of
capital).
• In the Modigliani and Miller theory developed without
taxes, capital structure is irrelevant and has no effect on
company value
• Using more debt in a company’s capital structure reduces
the net agency costs of equity.
• Got clarity about the concept of capital structure and
wealth of share holders
