  4. Recommendation Based on Modigliani and Miller’s theory on optimal capital structure, the firm should issue $136,763.20 of debt and buy back 18,689.90 shares • this moves the firm from zero debt to a D/E of 0.21, cost of debt = 5.87%, and a higher cost of equity = 9.62% • benefits of adopting this capital structure: • interest tax shield of $54,705.28 • minimizes WACC (8.57%) • maximizes the value of the firm ($547,325.99 )
