Earning before tax                                                                  6,00,000

Less : Tax @ 35%                                                                   2,10,000

                                                                                             _________

Earning After Tax                                                                   3,90,000

                                                                                             __________

Cost of Equity (Ke)                                                                 10%

Value of the firm = EBIT (1-t)/ Ke

Value of the firm (Vu) = 3, 90,000/10%  = 39, 00,000

(ii) Value of Levered Firm L

VL = Vu + Dt

V = 39, 00,000 + 20, 00,000 (.35)

VL = 39, 00,000 + 7, 00,000

VL = 46, 00,000
