Equity = $10000
Amount to be raised = $10000
No. of shares = 500
EBIT = $12000
Int on any Debt = 10%
When tax rate is 0
Alternative 1 : All equity financing
amount to be raised = $10000
MP per share = $20
No of shares = 10000/20 = 500shares
Total no. of shares = 500+ 500 = 1000 shares
Particulars | Amount |
EBIT | $12000 |
Less: Interest | 0 |
EBT | $12000 |
Less: Tax | 0 |
EAT | $12000 |
Earnings to owners = $12000
EPS = $12000 / 1000 = $ 12 per share
Distribution among creditors = $0
Distribution among shareholders = $12000
Alernative 2 : 50% Debt and 50% equity
Debt raised = $10000 * 50% = $5000
Int on debt = $5000 * 10% = 500
Equity raised = $5000 / 20 = 250shares
Total No. of shares = 500 + 250 = 750 shares
Particulars | Amount |
EBIT | $12000 |
Less: Interest | -500 |

Less: Tax | 0 |
EAT | $11500 |
Earnings to owners = $11500
EPS = $11500 / 750 = $ 15.33 per share
Distribution among creditors = $500
Distribution among shareholders = $11500
Alternative 3 : All Debt financing
Debt raised = $10000
Int on Debt = $10000 * 10% = $1000
Particulars | Amount |
EBIT | $12000 |
Less: Interest | -1000 |
EBT | $11000 |
Less: Tax | 0 |
EAT | $11000 |
Earnings to owners = $11000
EPS = $11000 / 500 = $ 22 per share
Distribution among creditors = $1000
Distribution among shareholders = $11000
