Expert Solution

MFDC Current scenario  
Outstanding debt book value                760,000.00
Cost of Bond =YTM =8.5%  
Annual Interest Expense =760000*8.5%=                        64,600
No of Common shares outstanding                      310,000
Tax rate =21%  
Current EPS Calculation  
EBIT                      145,000
Less: Interest Expense                        64,600
EBT =                        80,400
Tax @21% =                        16,884
Net Profit after Tax                        63,516
Earning available for Common stockholders =                        63,516
No of Common shares outstanding                      310,000
Current Earning per share =63516/310000=                            0.20
   
So Current EPS is 0.20
