EXAMPLE
A companys expected annual EBIT is Rs. 100000. The company has Rs 2,50,000, 10% debenture. The cost of equity of the company is 12.5%.
SOLUTION
Net Operating Income (EBIT) Less: Interest on debentures (I) Rs 100,000 25,000 -------------------------75,000 0.125
6,00,000 2,50,000
----------------------------8,50,000 11.76%
Overall cost of capital = Ko = EBIT/V (%) If debt is increased, S will fall. But V will increase and Ko will reduce
EXAMPLE
A companys expected annual EBIT is Rs. 100000. The company has Rs 2,50,000, 10% debentures. The cost of equity of the company is 12.5%.
Ke = (EBIT I)/(V B) = Earnings available to equity holders/Total market value of equity shares
SOLUTION
Net Operating Income (EBIT) Overall capitalisation rate (Ko) Rs. 1,00,000 0.125 ------------------------Rs 8,00,000 Rs 2,50,000
Total market value of the firm (V) = EBIT/Ko Total Value of Debt
Rs 5,50,000
Ke= EBIT-I/V-B
100000-25000/550000= 13.63%
MM APPROACH
MM approach supports the NOI approach, it means capital structure and cost of capital is irrelevant to value of the firm. Basic Propositions of the MM approach -- The overall cost of capital (ko) and the value of the firm (V) are independent of its capital structure. The total value is given by capitalizing the expected stream of operating earnings at a discount rate appropriate for its risk class. -Ke increases in a manner to offset exactly the use of a less expensive source of funds represented by debt.
Arbitrage Process
The MM approach illustrates the arbitrage process with reference to valuation in terms of two firms which are exactly similar in all respects except leverage so that one of them has debt in its capital structure while the other does not.
To understand the process let us have an example
EXAMPLE
Assume there are two firms, L and U, which are identical in all respects except the firm L has 10% Rs 5,00,000 debentures. The EBIT of both the firms are equal, that is, Rs 1,00,000. The equity capitalization rate (Ke) of firm L is higher (16%) than that of firm U (12.5%).
Solution:
0.16 312500
0.125 800000
812500
800000
ko
0.123
0.125
Traditional approach
At optimum capital structure, marginal real cost of debt=marginal real cost of equity Firm can reduce its cost of capital significantly with initial use of leverage
Example
20% debt 80% equity Kd=10% Ke=15%
Solution
Ko=0.10(20/100) +0.15(80/100)= 14%
Increase debt to 50% Kd=11% Ke=16% Ko=13.5% Increase debt to 70% Kd=14% Ke=20% Ko=15.8%
