The MM Propositions II (No Taxes)

Proposition II
– Leverage increases the risk and return to
stockholders
rs = r0 + (B / SL) (r0 - rB)
rB is the interest rate (cost of debt)
rs is the return on (levered) equity (cost of equity)
r0 is the return on unlevered equity (cost of capital)
B is the value of debt
SL is the value of levered equity
The MM Proposition II (No Taxes)
The derivation is straightforward:
rWACC =

S
´ rB +
´ rS
B +S

Debt-to-equity Ratio S
The MM Proposition I (Corp. Taxes)
Shareholde rs in a levered firm receive
Bondholders receive
( EBIT - rB B ) ´ (1 - TC )
rB B
Thus, the total cash flow to all stakeholde rs is
( EBIT - rB B ) ´ (1 - TC ) + rB B
The present value of this stream of cash flows is VL
( EBIT - rB B ) ´ (1 -TC ) + rB B =
= EBIT ´ (1 -TC ) - rB B ´ (1 -TC ) + rB B
= EBIT ´ (1 -TC )
The present value of the first term is VU
The present value of the second term is TCB
+ rB BTC
\VL = VU +TC B
The MM Proposition II (Corp. Taxes)
Start with M&M Proposition I with taxes:
Since
VL = S + B
VL =VU +TC B
 S + B = VU +TC B
VU = S + B(1 -TC )
The balance sheet of a levered firm can be written as
Vu=Value of
unlevered firm
B=Debt
TcB=Tax shield
S=Equity
The MM Proposition II (Corp. Taxes)
The cash flows from each side of the balance sheet must equal:
SrS + BrB =VU r0 +TC BrB
SrS + BrB = [S + B(1 -TC )]r0 +TC rB B
Divide both sides by S

Tax effect of debt



In a world without taxes, debt does not affect firm
value.
When there are corporate taxes, the firm value is
positively related to its debt --Debt reduces the
firm’s tax liability
With taxes, the sum of the debt plus the equity of
the levered firm is greater than the equity of the
unlevered firm.

Costs of financial distress


Direct costs: Legal and administrative
costs
Indirect costs:
– Impaired ability to conduct business
– Agency costs: conflicts between the
shareholders and the debtholders
Incentive to take large risks
 Incentive toward underinvestment
 Milking the property

Selfish Strategy 2: Underinvestment





Consider a government-sponsored project that
guarantees $350 in one period
Cost of investment is $300
the firm only has $200 now
the stockholders will have to supply an additional
$100 to finance the project
$350
Required return is 10% NPV = –$300 + (1.10)
NPV = $18.18
Should we accept or reject?

Selfish Strategy 3: Milking the Property


Liquidating dividends
Increase perquisites to shareholders
and/or management
Protective Covenants



Agreements to protect bondholders
Negative covenant:
– Pay dividends beyond specified amount.
– Sell more senior debt & amount of new debt is
limited.
Positive covenant:
– Maintain good condition of assets.
– Provide audited financial information.
– Working capital requirement.

Signaling



The firm’s capital structure is
optimized where the marginal subsidy
to debt equals the marginal cost.
Investors view debt as a signal of firm
value.
A manager that takes on more debt
than is optimal in order to fool
investors will pay the cost in the long
run.
