Tyson Iron Works is about to go public. It currently has after-tax earnings of \(4,400,000, and 4,200,000 shares are owned by the present stockholders. The new public issue will represent 500,000 new shares. The new shares will be priced to the public at \)25 per share with a 3 percent spread on the offering price. There will also be $280,000 in out-of-pocket costs to the corporation.

Question: The management of Mitchell Labs decided to go private in 2002 by buying in all 2.80 million of its outstanding shares at \(24.80 per share. By 2006, management had restructured the company by selling off the petroleum research division for \)10.75 million, the fiber technology division for \(8.45 million, and the synthetic products division for \)20 million. Because these divisions had been only marginally profitable, Mitchell Labs is a stronger company after the restructuring. Mitchell is now able to concentrate exclusively on contract research and will generate earnings per share of $1.10 this year. Investment bankers have contacted the firm and indicated that if it re-entered the public market, the 2.80 million shares it purchased to go private could now be reissued to the public at a P/E ratio of 15 times earnings per share.
c. What is the percentage return to the management of Mitchell Labs from the restructuring? Use answers from parts a and b to determine this value
Question: The Bowman Corporation has a \(18 million bond obligation outstanding, which it is considering refunding. Though the bonds were initially issued at 10 percent, the interest rates on similar issues have declined to 8.5 percent. The bonds were originally issued for 20 years and have 10 years remaining. The new issue would be for 10 years. There is a 9 percent call premium on the old issue. The underwriting cost on the new \)18,000,000 issue is \(530,000, and the underwriting cost on the old issue was \)380,000. The company is in a 35 percent tax bracket, and it will use an 8 percent discount rate (rounded after-tax cost of debt) to analyze the refunding decision.
