5x -- 50,000 200,000 / 7.5 = 26,6667 units 1e) the ROE for the first scenario is 140,000 / (0.85*350,000) = 47% the ROE for the second scenario is 140,000 / (0.65*350,000) = 61.5% The difference is 61.5 -- 47 = 14.5% 1f) the dividend payout structure is going to be as follows. The taxable income will be as follows: ($200,000 * .35) = $70,000 of debt. The interest will be (70,000)(.105) = $7,350 So taxable income

The equation used in this security market line relationship is as follows: Mathis, CAPM, par. 3) The measure of systematic risk is considered Beta or bi while E[Ri] is equal to the expected return on asset I and Rf is the risk-free rate. E[Rm] is the expected return on the market portfolio and E[Rm] - Rf is the
