Case Study of Midland
3. Sol: a. According to the passage, β=1.8, D/E=0.05, r_d=6.0%,t=12%,r_f=2.2%,R_M-R_F=8.4%. Thus λ=D/(D+E)=0.048 Therefore, r_e=r_f+β(R_M-R_F )=2.2%+1.8×8.4%=17.32%; WACC=λ(1-t) r_d+(1-λ) r_e =0.048(1-12%)×6.0%+(1-0.048)×17.32%=16.7% b. When debt-to-equity ratio increase from 0.05 to 0.20, λ=D/(D+E)=20/(20+100)=0.167,r_e remains the same. WACC=λ(1-t) r_d+(1-λ) r_e =0.167(1-12%)×6.0%+(1-0.167)×17.32%=15.3% c. In the electric utility company, β=0.84, D/E=0.46, r_d=4.3%,t=30%,λ=D/(D+E)=46/(46+100)=0.315. Thus r_e=r_f+β(R_M-R_F )=2.2%+0.84×8.4%=9.3% WACC=λ(1-t) r_d+(1-λ) r_e =0.315(1-30%)×4.3%+(1-0.315)×9.26%=7.3% Electric utility corresponds to balance sheet A. Two distinguishable features lead me to draw this conclusion. First, the obviously high property and equipment
