Answer:

Missing <em>"b-1. What will the value of the firm be if the company takes on debt equal to 50 percent of its unlevered value? b-2. What will the value of the firm be if the company takes on debt equal to 100 percent of its unlevered value?"</em>

a. Current value of the company = EBIT*(1-t) / Ke

Current value of the company = $23,300*(1-0.25) / 0.143

Current value of the company = $23,300*0.75 / 0.143

Current value of the company = $17,475 / 0.143

Current value of the company = $122202.7972027972

Current value of the company = $122,202.80

So, the current value of the company is $122,202.80.

bi. Value of the company = $122,202.80 + (0.25*$122,202.80*0.5)

Value of the company = $122,202.80 + $15,275.35

Value of the company = $137,478.15

bii Value of the company = $122,202.80 + (0.25*$122,202.80*1)

Value of the company = $122,202.80 + $30,550.7

Value of the company = $152,753.5
