Based on your answer in (a), suppose Mercury is going to change its capital structure with a long-term debt to value ratio of 30% (10% higher than the base case scenario) from 2011 onward.
1) The interest expense to the new capital structure will reduce the net income after tax
2) How does this recapitalization affect the value of Mercury?
