    A firm generates pre-tax earnings of £2,000,000 per year. Currently it has issued 1 million shares which sell for £10 each and no debt.
    It is proposing a deal, it will borrow £5 million at 8% and buy back 500,000 shares and cancel them. The corporate tax rate is 30%. Calculate the following
    a) The share price after the deal
    b)The WACC (Weighted Average Cost of Capital) both pre and post the deal

    Unless there is more information given, this question cannot be asked at Paper F9.

    It require the use of the formulae produced by Modigliani and Miller. You cannot be examined on the formulae in Paper F9.

    In that case ask in the P4 forum otherwise it is just confusing for other F9 students.
