Suppose there are no taxes. Firm ABC has no debt, and firm XYZ has debt of $2,000 on which it pays interest of 13% each year. Both companies have identical projects that generate free cash flows of $700 or $1,100 each year. After paying any interest on debt, both companies use all remaining free cash flows to pay dividends each year. a. In the table below, fill in the debt payments and equity dividends each firm will receive given each of the two possible levels of free cash flows. b. Suppose you hold 10% of the equity of ABC.
