1. Ch. 10: Determining the Financing Mix How do we want to finance our firm’s assets?  MF 

2. Determining the Financing Mix n Operating Leverage n Financial Leverage n Capital Structure

3. What is Leverage?

6. 2 concepts that enhance our understanding of risk... 1) Operating Leverage - affects a firm’s business risk. 2) Financial Leverage - affects a firm’s financial risk.

7. Business Risk n The variability or uncertainty of a firm’s operating income (EBIT).

8. Business Risk n The variability or uncertainty of a firm’s operating income (EBIT). EBIT

9. Business Risk n The variability or uncertainty of a firm’s operating income (EBIT). FIRM EBIT

10. Business Risk n The variability or uncertainty of a firm’s operating income (EBIT). FIRM EBIT EPS

11. Business Risk n The variability or uncertainty of a firm’s operating income (EBIT). FIRM EBIT EPS Stock-holders

12. Business Risk n The variability or uncertainty of a firm’s operating income (EBIT). FIRM EBIT EPS Stock-holders

13. Business Risk Affected by: n Sales volume variability n Competition n Cost variability n Product diversification n Product demand n Operating Leverage

14. Operating Leverage n The use of fixed operating costs as opposed to variable operating costs. n A firm with relatively high fixed operating costs will experience more variable operating income if sales change.

16. EBIT OperatingLeverage

17. Financial Risk n The variability or uncertainty of a firm’s earnings per share (EPS) and the increased probability of insolvency that arises when a firm uses financial leverage.

19. Financial Risk n The variability or uncertainty of a firm’s earnings per share (EPS) and the increased probability of insolvency that arises when a firm uses financial leverage. FIRM EBIT EPS Stock-holders

20. Financial Leverage n The use of fixed-cost sources of financing (debt, preferred stock) rather than variable-cost sources (common stock).

22. EPS Financial Leverage

23. Breakeven Analysis n Illustrates the effects of operating leverage. n Useful for forecasting the profitability of a firm, division or product line. n Useful for analyzing the impact of changes in fixed costs, variable costs, and sales price.

24. Quantity $ Breakeven Analysis

25. Quantity $ Total Revenue

26. Costs n Suppose the firm has both fixed operating costs (administrative salaries, insurance, rent, property tax) and variable operating costs (materials, labor, energy, packaging, sales commissions).

27. Quantity$

28. Quantity $ Total Revenue

29. Quantity { $ Total Cost FC

30. Quantity { $ Total Revenue Total Cost FC Q1Q1 + - } EBIT

31. Quantity { $ Total Revenue Total Cost FC Break-evenpoint Q1Q1 + - } EBIT

32. Operating Leverage n What happens if the firm increases its fixed operating costs and reduces (or eliminates) its variable costs?

33. Quantity { $ Total Revenue Total Cost FC Break-evenpoint Q1Q1 + - } EBIT

34. Quantity { $ Total Revenue Total Cost = Fixed FC Break-evenpoint } Q1Q1Q1Q1 + - EBIT

35. With high operating leverage, an increase in sales produces a relatively larger increase in operating income.

36. Quantity { $ Total Revenue Total Cost = Fixed FC Break-evenpoint } Q1Q1Q1Q1 + - EBIT

37. Quantity { $ Total Revenue Total Cost = Fixed FC Break-evenpoint } Q1Q1Q1Q1 + - EBIT Trade-off: the firm has a higher breakeven point. If sales are not high enough, the firm will not meet its fixed expenses!

38. Breakeven Calculations

39. Breakeven point (units of output) QB =QB =QB =QB = F P - V

40. Breakeven Calculations Breakeven point (units of output) n Q B = breakeven level of Q. n F = total anticipated fixed costs. n P = sales price per unit. n V = variable cost per unit. QB =QB =QB =QB = F P - V

41. Breakeven Calculations S* = F VC VC S 1 - Breakeven point (sales dollars)

42. n S* = breakeven level of sales. n F = total anticipated fixed costs. n S = total sales. n VC = total variable costs. Breakeven Calculations S* = F VC VC S 1 -

43. Analytical Income Statement sales sales - variable costs - fixed costs operating income operating income - interest EBT EBT - taxes net income net income

44. sales sales - variable costs - fixed costs operating income operating income - interest EBT EBT - taxes net income net income } contribution margin Analytical Income Statement

45. sales sales - variable costs - fixed costs operating income operating income - interest EBT EBT - taxes net income net income } contribution margin Analytical Income Statement EBT (1 - t) = Net Income, EBT (1 - t) = Net Income, so, so, Net Income / (1 - t) = EBT Net Income / (1 - t) = EBT EBT (1 - t) = Net Income, EBT (1 - t) = Net Income, so, so, Net Income / (1 - t) = EBT Net Income / (1 - t) = EBT

46. Degree of Operating Leverage (DOL) n Operating leverage: by using fixed operating costs, a small change in sales revenue is magnified into a larger change in operating income. n This “multiplier effect” is called the degree of operating leverage.

47. DOLs = % change in EBIT % change in sales Degree of Operating Leverage from Sales Level (S)

48. DOLs = % change in EBIT % change in sales change in EBIT EBIT EBIT change in sales sales sales = Degree of Operating Leverage from Sales Level (S)

49. n If we have the data, we can use this formula: Degree of Operating Leverage from Sales Level (S)

50. DOLs = Sales - Variable Costs EBIT EBIT n If we have the data, we can use this formula: Degree of Operating Leverage from Sales Level (S)

51. n If we have the data, we can use this formula: Degree of Operating Leverage from Sales Level (S) Q(P - V) Q(P - V) Q(P - V) - F = DOLs = Sales - Variable Costs EBIT EBIT

52. What does this tell us? n If DOL = 2, then a 1% increase in sales will result in a 2% increase in operating income (EBIT).

53. What does this tell us? n If DOL = 2, then a 1% increase in sales will result in a 2% increase in operating income (EBIT). Stock- holders EBIT EPS Sales

54. What does this tell us? n If DOL = 2, then a 1% increase in sales will result in a 2% increase in operating income (EBIT). Stock- holders EBIT EPS Sales

55. Degree of Financial Leverage (DFL) n Financial leverage: by using fixed cost financing, a small change in operating income is magnified into a larger change in earnings per share. n This “multiplier effect” is called the degree of financial leverage.

56. DFL = % change in EPS % change in EBIT Degree of Financial Leverage

57. DFL = % change in EPS % change in EBIT change in EPS EPS EPS change in EBIT EBIT EBIT Degree of Financial Leverage =

63. Degree of Combined Leverage (DCL) n Combined leverage: by using operating leverage and financial leverage, a small change in sales is magnified into a larger change in earnings per share. n This “multiplier effect” is called the degree of combined leverage.
