Firms HL and LL are identical except for their financial leverage ratios and the interest rates they pay on debt. Each has $18 million in invested capital, has $2.7 million of EBIT, and is in the 25% federal-plus-state tax bracket. Both firms are small with average sales of $25 million or less during the past 3 years, so both are exempt from the interest deduction limitation.
Firm HL, however, has a debt-to-capital ratio of 60% and pays 11% interest on its debt, whereas LL has a 35% debt-to-capital ratio and pays only 10% interest on its debt. Neither firm uses preferred stock in its capital structure.
