Answer:

a) Market Value = $100 million × $20 = $2,000 million = $2 billion

Market value of equity would remain same = $2 billion

b) Market value would remain same after recap. Only market capitalization would reduce to half.

Market value of equity = 1 billion

c) Buying back shares increases the stock price which demonstrates the faith of the company in its work. But creditors have capital gains.

d) After recap and cash flow firm total value has increased to $2 billion + $100 Million = $2.1 billion and market value of equity has increased from $20 to $22 . ($1000 + $100)/50 = $22.

e) Equity shareholders have gained due to increase in there share value
