How to calculate the break even of EBIT
Its normally EBITDA and yes it is.
The MAX Corporation is planning a $4 million expansion this year. The expansion can be financed by issuing either common stock or bonds. The new common stock can be sold for $60 per share. The bonds can be issued with a 12% coupon rate. The firm's existing shares of preferred stock pay dividends of $2.00 per share. The company's corporate income tax rate is 46%. The company's balance sheet prior to expansion is as follows: MAX Corporation Current assets $ 2,000,000 Fixed assets 8,000,000 Total assets $10,000,000 Current liabilities $ 1,500,000 Bonds: (8%, $1,000 par value) 1,000,000 (10%, $1,000 par value) 4,000,000 Preferred stock: ($100 par value) 500,000 Common stock: ($2 par value) 700,000 Retained earnings 2,300,000 Total liabilities and equity $10,000,000 a. Calculate the indifference level of EBIT between the two plans. b. If EBIT is expected to be $3 million, which plan will result in higher EPS?
Net income + income tax + interest expense or Add together all expenses, then - interest expense - income tax
If a company need to raise additional money by issuing either debt,preffered stock & common stock.Which alternative will allow company to have highest EPS? This is called EBIT-EPS analysis.In this ,company will calculate EPS at various level of sales(and EBIT) by considering different alternatives. you can analys it by taking an example: if comapny need $50000 additional investment, having $10000 of EBIT & 2000 of shares.how it can raise funds either go for common stock by issuing 1000 more equity of $50 each or go for debt @4% interest or go for preferred stock at 7% dividend........ If company raise by common stock , number of shares will increase to 3000 and EPS will come 2.17,if it go for debt number of shares remains constant and EPS come at 2.60 and if company go for preffered stock EPS come at 1.43......this way at different levels of EBIT ,what is the EPS by considering different alternatives? So that, company comes to know which is the best alternative for company to fulfill additional capital requirement?
The EBIT-EPS indifference point is a calculation used in determining optimal capital structures. What that means is firms typically finance their operations with two primary means, equity and debt. Back to the indifference point, algebraically and graphically when the earnings per share for debt and equity financing alternatives are equal, you have the EBIT-EPS indifference point. Put another way a firm can finance their operations at the same cost, with either debt or equity, at the indifference point. EPS (debt financing) = EPS (equity financing)

Zone of indifference is a service level where your customer service is forgettable!

Indifference curve is a curve that shows consumption bundles that give the consumer the same level of satisfaction. Indifference map, on the other hand Indifference curve is a graph of two or more indifference curves.
How to calculate the break even of EBIT
EBIT means "Earnings Before Interests and Taxes"
indifference curve is the graphical representation of the bundles of commodities for a given income level or budget that yields equal satisfaction at all the points.
Ebit is found by looking at your bottom line (i.e. net income) on an income statement, and then adding back the interest expense and income tax expense (if applicable, flow through entities do not pay taxes). The reason for EBIT is to tell the interested party how effective a business is at doing what it is supposed to do by factoring out non-operational expenses. Another variant of EBIT is EBITDA which is even leaner, and additionally factors out depreciation and amortization. (I answered)
Indifferent point is that EBIT level at which the Earnings Per Share (EPS) is the same for two alternative financial plans. It is called indifferent point because using either financial plan makes no difference in terms of profit and loss. An indifferent point allows more choices than any other EBIT level.
- It measures the EBIT's percentage change as a result of a change of one percent in the level of output. - It helps in measuring the business risk.
