  8. Why is Capital Structure Important? 1) Leverage: Higher financial leverage means higher returns to stockholders, but higher risk due to fixed payments. 2) Cost of Capital: Each source of financing has a different cost. Capital structure affects the cost of capital. TheOptimal Capital Structure is the one that minimizes the firm’s cost of capital and maximizes firm value.

  9. What is the Optimal Capital Structure? • In a “perfect world” environment with no taxes, no transaction costs and perfectly efficient financial markets, capital structure does not matter. • This is known as the Independence hypothesis: firm value is independent of capital structure.

  10. Independence Hypothesis Firm value does not depend on capital structure.

  11. Independence Hypothesis:Rix Camper Manufacturing Company • Capital Structure: 100% equity, no debt • Stock price: $10 per share • Shares outstanding: 2 million • Operating income (EBIT): $2,000,000 • Calculate EPS: With no interest payments and no taxes, EBIT = net income. $2,000,000/2,000,000 shares = $1.00

  12. D1 1.00 P 10.00 k = + g = + 0 = 10% Independence Hypothesis:Rix Camper Manufacturing Company • Capital Structure: 100% equity, no debt • Stock price: $10 per share • Shares outstanding: 2 million • Operating income (EBIT): $2,000,000 • Calculate the Cost of Capital:

  13. Independence Hypothesis:Rix Camper Manufacturing Company • $20 million capitalization • $8 million in debt issued to retire $8 million in equity. • Equity = $12m / $20m = 60% • Debt = $8m / $20m = 40% • Capital Structure: 60% equity, 40% debt • Shares outstanding: $12 million / $10 = 1,200,000 shares. • Interest = $8m x .06 = $480,000

  14. Independence Hypothesis:Rix Camper Manufacturing Company • Capital Structure: 60% equity, 40% debt • Stock price: $10 per share • Shares outstanding: 1.2 million • Net income: $2,000,000 - $480,000 = $1,520,000 • Calculate EPS: $1,520,000/1,200,000 shares = $1.267

  15. D1 1.267 P 10.00 k = + g = + 0 = 12.67% Independence Hypothesis:Rix Camper Manufacturing Company • Capital Structure: 60% equity, 40% debt • Stock price: $10 per share • Shares outstanding: 1.2 million • Net income: $2,000,000 - $480,000 = $1,520,000 • Calculate the Cost of Equity:

  16. Independence Hypothesis:Rix Camper Manufacturing Company • Capital Structure: 60% equity, 40% debt • Stock price: $10 per share • Shares outstanding: 1.2 million • Net income: $2,000,000 - $480,000 = $1,520,000 • Calculate the Cost of Capital: .6 (12.67%) + .4 (6%) = 10%

  22. Independence Hypothesis • If we have perfect capital markets, capital structure is irrelevant. • In other words, changes in capital structure do not affect firm value.

  23. Dependence Hypothesis • Increasing leverage does not increase the cost of equity. • Since debt is less expensive than equity, more debt financing would provide a lower cost of capital. • A lower cost of capital would increase firm value.

  24. Cost of Capital kc kc ko kd kd Financial Leverage Dependence Hypothesis Since the cost of debt is lower than the cost of equity… increasing leverage reduces the cost of capital.

  25. Moderate Position • The previous hypothesis examines capital structure in a “perfect market.” • The moderate position examines capital structure under more realistic conditions. • For example, what happens if we include corporate taxes?

  26. Rix Camper example:Tax effects of financing with debt unleveredlevered EBIT 2,000,000 2,000,000 - interest expense 0(480,000) EBT 2,000,000 1,520,000 - taxes (50%) (1,000,000)(760,000) Earnings available to stockholders 1,000,000 760,000 Payments to all securityholders 1,000,000 1,240,000

  27. Even if the cost of equity rises as leverage increases, the cost of debt is very low... kc Cost of Capital because of the tax benefit associated with debt financing. kc kd kd Financial Leverage Moderate Position

  28. The low cost of debt reduces the cost of capital. kc Cost of Capital kc ko kd kd Financial Leverage Moderate Position

  29. Moderate Position • So, what does the tax benefit of debt financing mean for the value of the firm? • The more debt financing used, the greater the tax benefit, and the greater the value of the firm. • So, this would mean that all firms should be financed with 100% debt, right? • Why are firms not financed with 100% debt?

  30. Why is 100% Debt Not Optimal? Bankruptcy costs: costs of financial distress. • Financing becomes difficult to get. • Customers leave due to uncertainty. • Possible restructuring or liquidation costs if bankruptcy occurs.

  31. Why is 100% Debt Not Optimal? Agency costs: costs associated with protecting bondholders. • Bondholders (principals) lend money to the firm and expect it to be invested wisely. • Stockholders own the firm and elect the board and hire managers (agents). • Bond covenants require managers to be monitored. The monitoring expense is an agency cost, which increases as debt increases.

  38. Capital Structure Management EBIT-EPS Analysis - Used to help determine whether it would be better to finance a project with debt or equity.

  39. Capital Structure Management EBIT-EPS Analysis - Used to help determine whether it would be better to finance a project with debt or equity. EPS = (EBIT - I)(1 - t) - P S I = interest expense, P = preferred dividends, S = number of shares of common stock outstanding.

  40. EBIT-EPS Example Our firm has 800,000 shares of common stock outstanding, no debt, and a marginal tax rate of 40%. We need $6,000,000 to finance a proposed project. We are considering two options: • Sell 200,000 shares of common stock at $30 per share, • Borrow $6,000,000 by issuing 10% bonds.

  41. If we expect EBIT to be $2,000,000: Financing stock debt EBIT 2,000,000 2,000,000 - interest 0(600,000) EBT 2,000,000 1,400,000 - taxes (40%) (800,000)(560,000) EAT 1,200,000 840,000 # shares outst. 1,000,000 800,000 EPS $1.20 $1.05

  42. If we expect EBIT to be $4,000,000: Financing stock debt EBIT 4,000,000 4,000,000 - interest 0(600,000) EBT 4,000,000 3,400,000 - taxes (40%) (1,600,000)(1,360,000) EAT 2,400,000 2,040,000 # shares outst. 1,000,000 800,000 EPS $2.40 $2.55

  43. If EBIT is $2,000,000, commonstockfinancing is best. • If EBIT is $4,000,000, debt financing is best. • So, now we need to find a breakevenEBIT where neither is better than the other.

  44. EPS 3 stock financing 2 1 0 EBIT $1m $2m $3m $4m If we choose stock financing:

  45. bond financing EPS 3 2 1 0 EBIT $1m $2m $3m $4m If we choose bond financing:

  46. bond financing EPS 3 stock financing 2 1 0 EBIT $1m $2m $3m $4m Breakeven EBIT

  47. Breakeven Point Set two EPS calculations equal to each other and solve for EBIT: Stock Financing Debt Financing (EBIT-I)(1-t) - P = (EBIT-I)(1-t) - P S S

  48. Breakeven Point Stock Financing Debt Financing (EBIT-I)(1-t) - P = (EBIT-I)(1-t) - P S S (EBIT-0) (1-.40) = (EBIT-600,000)(1-.40) 800,000+200,000 800,000

  49. Breakeven Point Stock Financing Debt Financing .6 EBIT = .6 EBIT - 360,000 1 .8 .48 EBIT = .6 EBIT - 360,000 .12 EBIT = 360,000 EBIT = $3,000,000

  50. bond financing EPS 3 stock financing 2 1 0 EBIT $1m $2m $3m $4m Breakeven EBIT For EBIT up to $3 million, stock financing is best. For EBIT greater than $3 million, debt financing is best.
