A. What is the firm's WACC for Case 1? case 2? case 3?
B. Which case corresponds to the optimal WACC (case 1, 2, or 3)?
C. What is the corresponding D/(D+E) ratio (75%, 30%, 9%, 0%, 45%, 20%, 60%, 55%)?
D. Why does minimum WACC correspond to an entity's optimum leverage for all stakeholders?
--Minimum WACC maximizes the present value of each future cash flow.
--Minimum WACC minimizes the project's negative cash flows.
--Minimum WACC corresponds to an optimal D/(D+E) ratio
-- Minimum WACC drives down the present value of negative cash flows
1) WACC = wd x rd x (1 - tax) + we x re
= 0% x 0% x (1 - 45%) + 100% x 9%
= 9%
2) WACC = 45% x 7.5% x (1 - 45%) + 55% x 11% = 7.91%
3) WACC = 80% x 14% x (1 - 45%) + 20% x 18% = 9.76%
4) Option 2 corresponds to optimal WACC as it is the minimum.
5) D/(D + E) = 45%
6) a is correct.
