1、Managerial Economics Chapter 12 1Non-debt Tax ShieldsDe Angelo and Masulis (1980) (DM) extended MM and Miller by including other tax shields besides interest, i.e. non-debt tax shields (NDTS).

13、ebt/ Equity Ratios in PracticeFirms, in reality, do not finance with 100% debt since:1) ITS is not the only tax deduction - NDTS exists too2) Costs of FD are too high3) Existence of AC4) KI + KS decisions are not independent Pecking Order Theory (POT) = Myers theory1) Firms prefer use of IGF (which
14、accounts for 75-80% of firms financing) becausea) they seek to avoid costs of external financing by avoiding reliance on external financial markets. b) poor performing firms will not draw attention to themselves by going to financial markets. 2) Firms prefer to pay dividends so that the OC is forego

(p. 360)Factors contributing to net stock retirement:1) mergers financed with debt2) leveraged buyouts of publicly traded companies which were taken private with DBVE of 9 to 13) swaps of debt for outstanding stock(1) - (3) d reliance on debt . firms do not always employ the

25、from various tax shields(2) FD is most likely in firms that have high business risk (BR)- high BR exists where most assets are of intangible character (brainpower) these firms must use less debt(3) use of lower FL allows firms to react to NPV 0 opportunities high-growth firms use less debtInternational KS IssuesForeign subsidiaries must use parents overall KS as its guideline. Parent must raise K where it is cheapest and make adjustments at multinational level to achieve its target KS (worldwide KS)
