Question 3 [10 points] Consider an economy with three dates {t=0, 1, 2}. A firm has assets in place that generate an output (profit) of either 40 in state L or 160 in state H at t=2. Bothe states equally likely. At t=1, the firm can implement another project. The implementation costs are 110 and the new project delivers an output of 120 in state L and 130 in state H at t=2. The owner of the firm and investors are risk neutral. They maximize their expected payoff. The risk free rate is r=0. The firm wants to issue equity to finance the new project. (a) What is the value of the firm (i) without and (ii) with the project at t=0? [2p] (b) What percentage of equity does the firm sell to raise the investment cost at t=1? [3p] Now suppose prior to issuing equity the firm learns the true state of t 2 at =1. (c) Does the firm issue equity in both states? [3p] (d) What is the value of the firm if equity is issued? [2p]
