  1. Capital Structure Basics Chapter 13

  2. Learning Objectives • Break-even level of sales. • Operating and financial leverage and risk. • Risks and returns of leveraged buy-outs (LBOs). • Effect of capital structure on value.

  3. Break-even Analysis • Steps to Solution • Construct a chart to find the sales break-even point = level of sales necessary to cover operating (not financial) costs. • This requires that you calculate EBIT for different unit sales amounts. • The point at which EBIT = 0 is the break-even level of sales.

  4. Costs $ Units Produced Break-even Analysis • Assumptions • Fixed costs remain constant as quantity changes. • Variable costs vary as quantity of output changes. Variable Costs Fixed Costs

  5. Fixed vs. Variable Costs • Fixed costs may include salaries, depreciation, rent. • Variable costs may include commissions, materials, labor. • This is a generalization. For example, some salaries may be considered fixed and others variable. In the long-run all costs are variable.

  6. EBIT = Sales – Variable Costs - Fixed Costs Break-even Analysis • Calculation of Break-even Quantity Find Quantity which results in EBIT = $0

  7. FC p – vc Unit Salesbe = Break-even Analysis • Calculation of Break-even Quantity Where: Unit Salesbe = Break-even quantity FC = Total fixed costs p = Sales price per unit vc = Variable costs per unit

  8. FC p – vc Unit Salesbe = Break-even Analysis • Calculation of Break-even Quantity Example: Fixed Costs = $1,000,000/year Price = $800/unit Variable Costs = $400/unit

  9. FC p – vc Unit Salesbe = $1,000,000 $800 – $400 = = 2,500 units Break-even Analysis • Calculation of Break-even Quantity Example: Fixed Costs = $1,000,000/year Price = $800/unit Variable Costs = $400/unit

  10. TR = p x Q Break-even Analysis • Now calculate total revenue. p = Sales price per unit Q = unit sales

  11. TR = p x Q Break-even Analysis • Calculate total revenue for different levels of sales. Unit sales (Q) xPrice (p)= Total Revenue (TR) 0 x $800 = $ 0 500 x $800 = $ 400,000 1,000 x $800 = $ 800,000 2,000 x $800 = $1,600,000 2,500 x $800 = $2,000,000

  12. TotalCosts Variable Costs Fixed Costs Quantity Produced Graphical Analysis of Break-even point Step 1:

  13. TotalCosts Variable Costs Fixed Costs Quantity Produced Graphical Analysis of Break-even Point Step 2: Total Costs $1,000,000

  14. TotalCosts & Revenue Variable Costs Fixed Costs Quantity Produced & Sold Graphical Analysis of Break-even Point Step 3: Total Revenue Total Costs $1,000,000

  15. The Break-even Graph • The slope of the total revenue line is p, the price per unit. • The slope of the total cost line is vc, the variable cost per unit.

  17. The Concept of Leverage You cannot easily move a large boulder.

  18. The Concept of Leverage However, with the aid of a lever you can move an object many times your size.

  19. The Concept of Leverage The longer the lever, the bigger the rock you can move.

  20. The Concept of Leverage • In a financial context, the magnifying power of leverage can be used to help (or hurt) a firm’s financial performance. • Operating leverage occurs due to fixed costs in the production process. • With high fixed operating costs, a small change in sales will trigger a large change in operating income (EBIT).

  21. % Change in EBIT % Change in Sales DOL= Operating Leverage • Measurement of Operating Leverage • Degree of Operating Leverage (DOL) • DOL > 1 means the firm has operating leverage.

  22. % Change in EBIT % Change in Sales DOL= 100 33.33 ($1 - $.5) / $.5 ($4 - $3) / $3 DOL= = = 3.0 Operating Leverage • Example:S1 = 3,750 units S2 = 5,000 units • FC = $1mil and VC = $400/unit P = $800/unit • Sales of 3,750 units = (3,750 * $800) = $3mil • EBIT = $3mil - $1mil – $1.5mil= $.5mil • Sales of 5,000 units = (5,000 * $800) = $4mil • EBIT = $4mil - $1mil - $2mil = $1mil

  23. Sales - Total VC Sales -Total VC - FC DOL= Operating Leverage • Measurement of DOL • Calculation using alternate formula:

  24. Sales - Total VC Sales -Total VC - FC DOL= Operating Leverage • Measurement of DOL • Calculation using alternate formula: DOL = ($3 - $1.5) / ($3 - $1.5 - $1) = 1.5 / .5 = 3

  25. Sales - Total VC Sales -Total VC - FC DOL= Q = 3,750 units P = $800 per unit VC = $400 per unit FC = $1,000,000 per year. Example: Operating Leverage • Measurement of DOL • Calculation using per unit information:

  26. Sales - Total VC Sales -Total VC - FC DOL= 3,750(800) – 3,750(400) 3,750(800) –3,750(400) – 1,000,000 DOL3,750 units = Operating Leverage • Measurement of DOL • Calculation using per unit information: Interpretation: If sales change 1%, then EBIT will change 3% (same direction). = 3

  27. Quantity DOL 2,500 (Qbe) Undefined 3,250 4.33 3,750 3 5,000 2 Operating Leverage • Degree of Operating Leverage falls as sales rise

  28. Quantity DOL 2,500 (Qbe) Undefined 3,250 4.33 3,750 3 5,000 2 Operating Leverage • Degree of Operating Leverage falls as sales rise • The higher the sales level above break-even, the less the percent change in EBIT for a given percent change in sales • If FC = $0, DOL = 1

  29. Leverage Table Number 1

  30. % Change in NI % Change in EBIT DFLEBIT = Financial Leverage • Degree of Financial Leverage • Finance a portion of the firm’s assets with securities that have fixed financial costs • Debt • Preferred Stock • Financial Leverage measures changes in earnings per share as EBIT changes. Base Level of EBIT

  31. % Change in NI % Change in EBIT DFL= 167 100 (480.6 - 180) / 180 ($1 - $.5) / $.5 DFL= = = 1.67 Financial Leverage Example: EBIT1 = $500,000 EBIT2 = $1,000,000 NI1 = $180,000 NI2 = $480,600

  32. EBIT EBIT – I DFLEBIT = Financial Leverage • Measurement of DFL (Alternate formula) • If DFL > 1, the firm has financial leverage. A given percent change in EBIT will result in a larger percent change in NI.

  33. 500,000 500,000 – 200,000 DFLEBIT=500,000 = Financial Leverage Example: EBIT = $500,000 Interest Charges = $200,000 = 1.67 times Interpretation: When EBIT changes 1% (from an existing level of $50,000) Net Income will change 1.67% in the same direction. Link to CBS Market Watch

  34. Leverage Table Number 1

  35. % Change in NI % Change in Sales DCLS = Combined Leverage • Degree of Combined Leverage • Measures changes in Net Income given changes in Sales • Combines both Operating and Financial Leverage • Computed for a specific level of sales Base Level of Sales

  36. % Change in NI % Change in Sales DCL= 166.7 33.3 (480.6 - 180) / .180 ($4 - $3) / $3 DCL= = = 5.0 Combined Leverage Example: SALES1 = $3,000,000 SALES2 = $4,000,000 NI1 = $180,000 NI2 = $480,600

  37. DCLS = DOLS x DFLEBIT Example: DOLS = 3.0 DFLEBIT = 1.67 Combined Leverage DCL3,750 = 3.0x 1.67 = 5.0 times

  38. Sales – VC Sales - VC - FC - I DCLS = 3,750(800) – 3,750(400) 3,750(800) – 3,750(400) – 1,000,000 - $200,000 DCL3,750 = 3 mil – 1.5 mil 3 mil – 1.5 mil – 1 mil - .2 mil = Combined Leverage Example: = 1,500,000  300,000 = 5

  39. DCLS = DOLS x DFLEBIT DCLS = DOLS x DFLEBIT Example: DOLS = 3.0 DFLEBIT = 1.67 Combined Leverage DCL3,750 = 3.0x 1.67 = 5.0 times Interpretation: When sales change 1%, Net Income will change 5.0% in the same direction

  40. Leverage Table Number 1

  41. Effect of Leverage • Leverage can help the firm or hurt it. • If EBIT increases, financial leverage will magnify the increase in net income. • If EBIT decreases, financial leverage will magnify the decrease in net income.

  42. Capital Structure Theory • Capital Structure is the mixture of sources of funds a firm uses. • Debt • Preferred Stock • Common Stock

  43. Capital Structure Theory • A benefit of debt financing is that interest is tax deductible to the paying firm whereas payments to equity providers are not. • Firms must trade-off this benefit against the increased financial risk associated with higher debt levels.

  44. Capital Structure TheoryModigliani and Miller (M&M) • M&M wrote an important paper in 1958 in which they proved that with certain assumptions there is no optimal capital structure. One is as good as any other. • M&M’s Assumptions: No transaction costs, no taxes, everyone has same information and borrowing rates, debt is riskless, debt does not affect operations.

  45. Capital Structure TheoryModigliani and Miller (M&M) • In a later paper, M&M showed that when the tax deductibility of interest is considered, their model indicates that a capital structure of 100% debt is optimal.

  46. Capital Structure in the Real World • Firms attempt to balance the costs and benefits of debt to reach the optimal mix that maximizes the value of the firm. • Affect on costs of capital: • Since debt is cheaper than equity, use of debt will initially lower the WACC. • At high levels of debt, the WACC will increase as investors perceive the risk of the firm to be increasing substantially.
