1. Given Net income = Y100 million Idle cash = Y240 million Solution Current EPS = Y100 million/10 million shares = Y10 Shares repurchased = Y240 million/Y140 =~ 1.7 million shares Shares after repurchase = 10 M - ~1.7 M =~ 8.3 million shares EPS after repurchase = Y100 million/~8.3 M = ~Y12 Example 6-6 Current share price = Y120 Repurchase price = Y140 Shares outstanding = 10 million 1 Clayman, Fridson, Troughton.

2. Given – Funds available for distribution = $50 million – Current share price = $20 – Shares outstanding = 10 million – Two methods for distributing the free cash flow to equity: Pay a special $5/share cash dividend Repurchase $50 million worth of shares at the current market price – Taxation and information content of dividends and repurchases are the same – What is the impact on shareholder wealth under each method? Example 6-9 2 Clayman, Fridson, Troughton. Corporate Finance 2ed

3. Solution (cash dividend) – a cash dividend reduces the market value of equity by the amount of the dividend; the number of shares outstanding remain the same Market value of equity before the dividend = 10 million x $20 = $200 million Market value of equity after the dividend = $200 M - $50 M = $150 M Market value per share after the dividend = $150 M/10 M = $15 Or, $20 - $5 = $15 – Effect on wealth of shareholders (on a per share basis) = $5 (dividend) + $15(stock price) 3 Clayman, Fridson, Troughton.

4. Solution (repurchase) – A share repurchase has no effect on the stock price (see assumptions); the total shares outstanding will be reduced by the number of shares repurchased Shares repurchased = $50 M/$20 = 2.5 million shares Shares outstanding after the repurchase = 10 – 2.5 = 7.5 M Market value of equity before the repurchase = $20 x 10 million = $200 million Market value of equity after the repurchase = $200 million - $50 million = $150 million Price per share = $150 million/7.5 million shares = $20 – Effect on shareholder wealth (on a per share basis) = $20 4Clayman, Fridson, Troughton.
