There is no adjustment for taxes, because dividend payments are not a tax-deductible expense.

1112 There are two break points associated with new debt(1) when greater than $450,000 in debt is issued
and (2) when greater than $750,000 in debt is issued. These break points are:
1113 There are two break points associated with the new funds(1) when more than $240,000 in debt is
issued and (2) when new common equity must be issued.
Debt $240,000
BP $800,000

==
According to this information, Western’s WACC will increase when it raises more than $800,000 in total
funds because both the cost of debt and the cost of equity will increase beyond this point. In other
words, the break point for debt and the break point for equity occur at the same level of funds.
1114 a. WACC1 = wd(rdT) + ws(rs) = 0.4[5%(1 0.35)] + 0.6(8%) = 6.1%
1115 wd = 20% rdT = 3.5% re = 12.4%
wps = 30% rps = 6.0% Retained earnings = $100,000
ws = 50% rs = 10.2% Funding needs = $220,000
Killer Burgers needs to raise $220,000, but it can only raise a total of $200,000 before new common
Chapter 11 CFIN6
stock must be issued. As a result, the firm must issue new stock.
Alternative solution: If Killer Burgers raises $220,000, following is the breakdown of how the funds will
be raised:
Debt = $220,000(0.2) = $44,000
When new common stock must be issued, Killer’s WACC is:
WACC = 3.5%(0.2) + 6.0%(0.3) + 12.4%(0.5) = 8.7%
1116 wd = 60% rd = 5.0% re = 13.0%
wps = 10% rps = 7.0% Retained earnings = $27,000
ws = 30% rs = 11.0% Funding needs = $85,000
FC needs to raise $85,000, and it can raise up to a total of $90,000 before new common stock must be
issued. As a result, the firm does not need to issue new stock.
Alternative solution: If FC raises $85,000, following is the breakdown of how the funds will be raised:
Debt = $85,000(0.6) = $51,000
Preferred stock = $85,000(0.1) = $8,500
1117 The retained earnings break point must be computed to determine at what point new common stock
must be issued:.

==
Based on this information, we know that WACC = 14 percent as long as the total capital budget is less
than $40,000. If the capital budget is greater than $40,000, WACC = 17 percent. The following table
applies this information to the three projects Lazy Loungers is evaluating:
Project Cost Costs IRR WACC Acceptable?*
A $10,000 $10,000 21.0% 14.0% Yes, IRR > WACC
1118 The retained earnings break point must be computed to determine at what point new common stock
must be issued:.
RE $230,000
BP $287,500
0.8
==
As a result, following are the WACCs OTC should use to evaluate the projects:
Capital budget < $287,500; no new stock is needed: WACC1 = 0.2(4.0%) + 0.8(10.0%) = 8.8%
1119 The WACCs are:

1120 (1) Compute the break points:
RE $1,300,000
BP $2,000,000
0.65
==
(2) Compute the WACC for each interval of funds:
Total Funds: $1 to $1,200,000 (first break point); at the maximum amount of this interval,
Debt = 0.35($1,200,000) = $420,000
Equity = 0.65($1,200,000) = $780,000
Total Funds: Greater than 2,000,000; if the entire project is funded at $2.6 million,
Debt = 0.35($2,600,000) = $910,000
Equity = 0.65($2,600,000) = $1,690,000
WACC3 = [7%(1 – 0.4)](0.35) + 14%(0.65) = 10.57%
(3) Determine how much of the project should be purchased.
