Answer: 20%

Explanation:

Municipal Bonds are generally not taxed so if you invest in the Municipal bond, the tax rate does not affect you.

The tax rate therefore that will make you indifferent between the 2 options is the one that will take the Corporate bond returns of Jefferson to 8% so that both bonds may give you the same return after tax.

Assuming that tax rate is 'x' then,

8 = 10 (1 - x)

8 = 10 - 10x

10x = 10 - 8

10x = 2

x = 20%

At a tax rate of 20%, the Corporate bonds give an 8% return.

Daniel [21]

Answer:

The answer is $750 millions

Explanation:

After recapitalization, the Weight of Debts of Nichols Corporation is 25%. Hence, its Weight of Equity Capital is: 100% - 25% = 75%.

The formula of Value of Operations as follows:

Value of Operations = Weight of Debts x Value of Debts + Weight of Equity Capital x Value of Equity Capital

Because Nichols Corporation's value of operations is equal to $600 million after recapitalization, we have the following equation with S as the value of equity after the recap:

600 = 25% x 150 + 75% x S

=> S = (600 - 25% x 150) / 75% = 750
