Learning OutcomesChapter 12
Discuss how managers consider liquidity when determining the optimal capital structure for a firm.
Discuss the two general theories—that is, (a) trade-off theory and (b) signaling theory—that have been developed to explain what firms’ capital structures should be and why firms’ capital structures differ.
Describe how and why capital structures vary among firms in the United States and around the world.

The Target Capital Structure
Capital Structure: The combination of debt and equity used to finance a firm

Four factors that influence capital structure decisions:The firm’s business risk
The firm’s tax position
Financial flexibility
Managerial attitude

What is Business Risk?
The risk associated with the firm’s operations. ignoring any fixed financing effects.

7
Factors Affecting Business Risk
Sales variability
Input price variability
Ability to adjust output prices for changes in input prices
The extent to which costs are fixed: operating leverage
![Page 8: 1. Learning Outcomes Chapter 12 Describe how business risk and financial risk can affect a firm’s capital structure. Describe how businesses determine](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062717/56649e2a5503460f94b180b6/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
What is Operating Leverage?
Operating Leverage: Use of fixed operating rather than variable costs
If most costs are fixed (do not decline when demand falls) then firm has high DOL (degree of operating leverage)

What is Financial Risk?
Financial Leverage: The extent to which fixed-income securities (debt and preferred stock) are used in a firm’s capital structure
Financial Risk: Additional risk placed on stockholders as as result of financial leverage

Business Risk vs. Financial Risk
Business risk depends on business factors such as competition, product liability, and operating leverage.
Financial risk depends only on type of securities issued: More debt, more financial risk.

Determining the Optimal Capital Structure:
Seek to maximize the price of the firm’s stock.
Changes in use of debt will cause changes in earnings per share, and thus, in the stock price.
Cost of debt varies with capital structure.
Financial leverage increases risk.

EPS Indifference Analysis
EPS Indifference Point:The level of sales at which EPS will be the same whether the firm uses debt or common stock (pure equity) financing.

The Effect of Capital Structure on Stock Prices and the Cost of Capital
The optimal capital structure maximizes the price of a firm’s stock
Always calls for a debt/assets ratio that is lower than the one that maximizes expected EPS.

Liquidity and Capital StructureDifficulties with Analysis
We cannot determine exactly how either P/E ratios or equity capitalization rates (rs values) are affected by different degrees of financial leverage.
Managers may be more or less conservative than the average stockholder, so management may set a different target capital structure than the one that would maximize the stock price.
Managers of large firms have a responsibility to provide continuous service and must refrain from using leverage to the point where the firm’s long-run viability is endangered.

Capital Structure Theory
Tax benefit/Bankruptcy Trade-off Theory
Signaling Theory
![Page 31: 1. Learning Outcomes Chapter 12 Describe how business risk and financial risk can affect a firm’s capital structure. Describe how businesses determine](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062717/56649e2a5503460f94b180b6/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Trade-Off TheoryInterest is tax-deductible expense, therefore less expensive than common or preferred stock.
Interest rates rise as debt/asset ratio increases; tax rates fall at high debt levels; probability of bankruptcy increases as debt/assets ratio increases.
At a threshold debt level(D/A1), the effects of point 2 are
immaterial. The optimal debt level (D/A2) occurs when the
tax savings of additional debt are just offset by the increase in bankruptcy costs.
Theory and empirical evidence support these ideas, but the points cannot be identified precisely.

Signaling Theory
Many large, successful firms use much less debt than the trade-off theory suggests which led to the development of the signaling theory.

Signaling TheorySymmetric Information - Investors and managers have identical information about the firm’s prospects.
Asymmetric Information - Managers have better information about their firm’s prospects than do outside investors.
Signal - An action taken by a firm’s management that provides clues to investors about how management views the firm’s prospects
Reserve Borrowing Capacity
Ability to borrow money at a reasonable cost when good investment opportunities arise
Firms often use less debt than “optimal” to ensure that they can obtain debt capital later if needed.

Variations in Capital Structures among Firms
Wide variations in use of financial leverage among industries and firms within an industryTIE measures how safe the debt is:
• percentage of debt
• interest rate on debt
• company’s profitability

Capital Structures Around the World
We cannot state that one financial system is better than another one in the sense of making the firms in one country more efficient than those in another.
As U.S. firms become increasingly involved in worldwide operations, they must become increasingly aware of worldwide conditions, and they must be prepared to adapt to conditions in the various countries in which they do business.
