Company can raise more debt by selling 50,000 new bonds at the same rate (interest) and receiving the market price of the bond i.e. $1,100. The outstanding 200,000 bonds and the additional 50,000 is the maximum the company can raise in debt. After this amount, the average after tax cost of debt will be increased by 1 percent.

In the upcoming annual financial results, the company expects to generate 75 million dollars in retained earnings for the capital budgeting projects. Any requirement of funds beyond this would require issuance of new stock at the market price of $50 per share while maintaining the existing capital structure.

A $50 million 13 percent
