Q3)
| Value of the depreciation tax shield is : | ||
| Residual value, ie carrying value = | 15000000 | |
| Depn./Yr.(st.line)---------(15000000/3)= | 5000000 | |
| Depn. Tax shield/yr.----(5000000*26%)= | 1300000 | |
| PV of depn. Tax shield at the unlevered cost of equity= | 1300000*(1-1.0905^-3)/0.0905= | |
| 3287753 | ||
| Wts.to total | ||
| Debt | 13500000 | 90% |
| Equity (balance) | 1500000 | 10% |
| Total assets (residual value-given) | 15000000 | 100% |
| As per MM theory with taxes, | ||
| k(Lev.E)=k(UnLE)+(D/E(1−Tax rate)*(k UnLE-kd)) | ||
| k(Lev.E)=9.05%+((90%/10%)*(1-26%)*(9.05%-3.75%)) | ||
| 44.35% | ||
| & we have the cost of debt kd as | ||
| 3.75% | ||
| Now, | ||
| WACC=(Wt.d*kd*(1-Tax rate))+(Wt. e*ke) | ||
| ie.(90%*3.75%*(1-26%))+(10%*44.35%)= | ||
| 6.93% | ||
| So, | ||
| PV of depn. Tax shield at the WACC , 6.93% | 1300000*(1-1.0693^-3)/0.0693= | |
| 3415979 |
