The cost of equity: Gangland Water Guns, Inc., is expected to pay a dividend of $2.10 one year from today. If the firm's growth in dividends is expected to remain at a flat 3 percent forever, then what is the cost of equity capital for Gangland if the price of its common shares is currently $17.50?
Solution: D1=$2.10,g=3%,P1=$17.50
Cost of Equity = (Next Year's dividends per share / Current market value of stock) + Growth rate of dividends
=($2.10/$17.50)+0.03

Question 21
.
M&M Proposition 1: Dynamo Corp. produces annual cash flows of $150 and is expected to exist forever. The company is currently financed with 75 percent equity and 25 percent debt. Your analysis tells you that the appropriate discount rates are 10 percent for the cash flows, and 7 percent for the debt. You currently own 10 percent of the stock.
If Dynamo wishes to change its capital structure from 75 percent to 60 percent equity and use the debt proceeds to pay a special dividend to shareholders, how much debt should
they issue?
Solution: Given, Annual cashflow=$150, E=75%,D=25%,V=100,Ke=10%,Kd=7%,dividend=10%
WACC=(KexS/V) +(KdxB/V)
=(.10x.75)+(.07x.25)
=.0925 or 9.25%
Debt/Equity= 25/75=33%
When it changes its capital structure, reduces its equity by 15%, the debt to equity ratio=40/60=66.7%

EBIT=$247 million
Depriciation & amortization expenses= $84 million
Number of outstanding shares=135 million, share price o$12.80 Enterprise Value/EBITDA multiple=5.40
We know that,
Enterprise value multiple=Enterprise value/ EBITDA[EBITDA=Revenue-Expenses Or, 5.40=Enterprise value/EBIT+ Depriciation
