Case 7 - An Introduction To Debt Policy and Value

The document compares the balance sheet of a company before and after recapitalization through additional debt. It shows that after taking on $1.565M in additional long-term debt and issuing no new shares, the total assets increase from $813,899 to $2,379,585. The market value of assets also increases from $1,889,153 to $3,987,172 due to a larger tax shield from higher debt. As a result of the recapitalization, the value per existing common share increases from $60.50 to $79.43 in the book value balance sheet and from $60.50 to $135.09 in the market value balance sheet.
