The document discusses capital structure theories including:
1. The Net Income Approach developed by Durand, which states that capital structure decisions are relevant to valuation and increased debt increases shareholder earnings.
2. The Net Operating Income Approach, also developed by Durand, which argues the opposite - that capital structure decisions are irrelevant to valuation and increased debt increases shareholder risk.
3. Other theories discussed include the Traditional Approach and Modigliani and Miller Approach. The document provides formulas for calculating firm value, equity value, and weighted average cost of capital under the Net Income and Net Operating Income approaches.

CAPITAL STRUCTURE
According to Gerestenbeg, “Capital structure of
a company refers to the composition or make-up of its capitalisation and it includes all long-term capital resources viz : loans, reserves, shares and books.” THEORIES OF CAPITAL STRUCTURE • The main contributors to the theories are Durand, Ezra, Solomon, Modigliani and Miller. • The important theories are: 1. Net Income Approach. 2. Net Operating Income Approach. 3. The Traditional Approach. 4. Modigliani and Miller Approach. 1. Net Income Approach: This approach has been developed by Durand. The main findings are: Capital structure decisions are relevant to the valuation of the firm. Increased use of debt will increase the shareholders’ earning. ASSUMPTIONS • Capital structure consists of debt and equity. • Cost of debt is less than cost of equity (i.e. Kd<Ke). • The use of debt content does not change the risk perception of investors. CALCULATION OF THE VALUE OF THE FIRM
• According to Net Income Approach the value of the firm can be
ascertained as follows: • V = S+ D where, V= Value of the firm S= Market value of equity=Earnings available for equity shareholders/ Equity capitalisation rate. D= Market value of debt. CALCULATION OF OVERALL COST OF CAPITAL • According to Net Income Approach the overall cost of capital or expected rate of return (WACC) can be calculated as follows: • (Ko) = EBIT X 100 v where, Ko= Overall cost of capital EBIT= Earnings before interest and tax V= Value of firm 2. NET OPERATING INCOME (NOI) APPROACH Another theory of capital structure, suggested but Durand, is the Net Operating Income approach. This approach is simply opposite to the Net Income approach. • The main findings are: Capital structure decisions are irrelevant to the valuation of the firm:. Increased use of debt will increase the financial risk of the shareholders. ASSUMPTIONS
(a) The market capitalises the value of firm as a whole.
(b) Cost of debt (Kd) is constant. (c) Increases use of debt increases the financial risk of equity shareholder which, in turn, raises the cost of equity (Ke). (d) Overall cost of capital (Ko) remains constant for all levels of debt equ mix. (e) There is no corporate income tax. VARIOUS CALCULATION UNDER NET OPERATING INCOME APPROACH ARE EXPLAINED BELOW:
1. Value of Firm (V): 2. Market Value of Equity (S):
V = EBIT S =V–D Ko where, S= Market value of equity where, V= Value of firm V = Value of firm D = Market value of debt. Ko= Overall Cost of Capital EBIT= Earnings Before Interest & taxes NET OPERATING INCOME V/S NET INCOME APPROACH Net operating income Approach Net income Approach • No relevance in capital structure. • Relevance in capital structure. • Degree of leverage is irrelevant to cost of • Change in degree of leverage will capital (assumes). change WACC (assumes). • It has constant cost of capital. • No taxes. • Equity value is residual (derived by • Cost of debt is less than cost of equity. subtracting value of debt from value of firm). • Change in debt will not change • Changes perception of investor with increase perception of investors. in debt.
