The expected fixed costs for the current business and expansion are $75,000. SmartClean’s average charge per job is $250.00. The variable cost per job is $35.00.

A firm needs $80 million (M) to fund startup operations. Sales of $50M are expected with $35.28M in expenses. The firm’s tax rate is 33%.
1) What are net earnings and the return on equity if the owners provide the needed $80M?
2) What are net earnings and the return on equity if $40M of the needed $80M is borrowed at an interest rate of 10%?
Note:
Interest under the “Borrowed Funds” scenario is equal to 10% of the $40M of borrowed funds.
• Taxes are equal to 33% of Earnings before Taxes (EBT).
• Return on equity is calculated by dividing net earnings by owner’s equity. When financial leverage is used, owner’s equity is only the contribution from the owners. Borrowed funds are not considered equity.
