Amount of Securities to Buy and Sell:
1 | Share Outstanding | 36,00,000 | |
2 | Share Price | $41.00 | |
A. | Current Value of Equity | (1*2) | $14,76,00,000.00 |
3 | Bond Outstanding | 8000 | |
4 | Bond Price (% of Par) | 95% | |
5 | Par value of Bond | $1,000.00 | |
6 | Bond Selling Price | (4*5) | $950.00 |
B. | Current Value of Bond | (6*3) | $76,00,000.00 |
7 | Total Assets | (A+B) | $15,52,00,000.00 |
Current Equity Ratio | Shareholder's Equity/Total Assets = A/7 | 95.10% | |
Current Debt Ratio | Value of Debt/Total Assets = B/7 | 4.9% | |
Current Debt/Equity Ratio | Debt/Equity = B/A | 0.0514905 |
1:Sell stocks and buy back bonds (This will increase the debt amount)
2:
Current value of debt | $76,00,000 |
Value of equity | $14,76,00,000 |
D/E Ratio | 0.0514905 |
Required D/E | 0.5 |
Debt required=Current debt/D/E Ratio | $76,00,000/0.5 = $1,52,00,000 |
Hence Amount of Equity to be sold=Debt required-Current debt | $1,52,00,000 - $76,00,000 = $76,00,000 |
Value of Equity be = $14,76,00,000 - $76,00,000 = $14,00,00,000
Value of Debt be = $1,52,00,000
Total Assets = Value of Equity + Value of Debt = $14,00,00,000 + $1,52,00,000 = $15,52,00,000
New Debt Ratio = Value of Debt/Total Assets = $1,52,00,000/$15,52,00,000 = 0.097 or 9.79%
