The Breakeven EBIT is 12432.

Explanation:

NORMAL STRONG EXPANSION

EBIT 18000 21960

Interest (3700) (3700)[50000*7.4%]

EBT 14300 18260

Taxes (3003)[14300*0.21] (3834.6)[18260*.21]

Net Income 11297 14425.4

Number of shares outstanding3511.90 3511.90

EPS 11297/3511.9 14425.4/3511.90

= $ 3.22 per share = $ 4.11 per share

Working:

Share price = Total market value /number of shares outstanding

= 168000/5000

= $ 33.6 per share

Number of shares repurchased from amount received from debt issue = Total debt /current share price per share

= 50000/33.6

= 1488.10

shares after repurchase = 5000 - 1488.10

= 3511.90

b)There are no taxes.

Alternative I ,Earning per share = EBIT /number of shares outstanding [Before repurchase]

Alternative II ,earning per share = [EBIT- interest ]/Number of shares outstanding after repurchase.

At breakeven Earning per share under both alternative are equal.

EBIT /5000 = [EBIT-3700]/3511.90

3511.90 *EBIT /5000 = EBIT - 3700

0.70238 EBIT = EBIT -3700

EBIT - 0.70238 EBIT = 3700

0.29762 EBIT = 3700

EBIT = 3700/0.29762

= 12431.96

Therefore, The Breakeven EBIT is 12432.
