Astromet is financed entirely by common stock and has a beta of 1.20. The firm pays no taxes. The stock has a price-earnings multiple of 11.0 and is priced to offer a 10.9% expected return. The company decides to repurchase half the common stock and substitute an equal value of debt. Assume that the debt yields a risk-free 4.6%. Calculate the following: Required: a. The beta of the common stock after the refinancing b. The required return and risk premium on the common stock before the refinancing c. The required return and risk premium on the common stock after the refinancing d. The required return on the debt e.
