Answer:
$587,500
Explanation:
You are required to calculate the value of the levered firm;
vL = vU + Dt, whereby;
vL = Value of levered firm
vU = value of unlevered firm
Dt = debt * tax ; which is the tax shield
Find value of unlevered firm;
vU = [EBIT(1-tax) ]/ rE
= [100,000(1-0.30)] / 0.16
= 437,500
Value of levered firm;
vL = 437,500 + (500,000*0.30)
= 437,500 +150,000
= $587,500

Note that Call options will be exercised only if the price on expiry is greater than strike price
Strike price = $2400
Premium paid = $53 for each contract, so the total premium paid = $530 for 10 contracts
<u>CASE 1</u>
Price = $2600
As price on expiry=2600 > Strike price=2400
Call option will be exercised.
Company will pay = $2400 * 10+530 = $24,530
<u>CASE 2</u>
Price = $2300
As price on expiry=2300 < Strike price=2400
Call option will not be exercised and will purchase from open market
Company will pay = $2300 * 10+530 = $23,530
