In October 2012, Builtwell Construction Company executives were working on their budget for 2013. Builtwell expects to have the following book value capital structure on December 31, 2012:

Debt ...................$12,000,000

Preferred stock (25,000 shares) ........ $ 2,500,000

Common stock (1,000,000 shares) ...... $ 5,000,000

Retained earnings .............. $10,000,000

Total capital .................$29,500,000

Earnings per share have grown steadily over the past seven years, from $1.65 in 2005 to $3.00 projected for 2012. The investment community expects growth to continue but at a slower rate; the average past growth rate of 9 percent has recently dropped to 5 percent, and it is expected to remain constant at this level. Based on a 5 percent growth rate, the stock now sells at a price/earnings (P/E) ratio of 6x (note, P = EPS x P/E). The last dividend, D0, was $1.88; it is expected to increase at the new 5 percent growth rate.

Builtwell's preferred stock, which was issued several years ago, has a book value of $100 per share, and it pays a dividend of $9. The yield currently on preferred stock of this degree of risk is 11.25 percent. The debt consists of $12,000,000 of $1,000 par, 20-year bonds with a 7 percent coupon, payable semiannually. These bonds were issued 7 years ago, and hence have 13 years remaining to maturity. The yield-to-maturity for these bonds is currently 9.227 percent. The corporate tax rate, including state income taxes, is 40 percent.
