Explanation:
As per modigliani- miller approach, the value of a firm is not dependent upon the choice of capital structure of the firm.
Capital structure refers to the the blend or mix of different sources of capital a firm avails to raise funds. Such as debt and equity.
As per MM proposition 2, the expected yield of a stock is equal to equity capitalization rate plus an additional compensation for risk assumed by employment of debt in the capital structure due to which the debt-equity ratio rises.
