Yeta currently does not pay a dividend, and the company operates with a target capital structure of 40% debt and 60% equity. However, on a recent conference call, Yeta's management indicated that they are considering four payout proposals:Proposal #1: Issue a 10% stock dividend.Proposal #2: Repurchase $40 million in shares using idle cash.Proposal #3: Repurchase $40 million in shares by borrowing $40 million at an after-tax cost of borrowing of 8.50%.Proposal #4: Initiate a regular cash dividend based on a residual dividend policy.
If Yeta's management implemented Proposal #2 at the current share price shown in Exhibit 1, Yeta's book value per share after implementation would be closest to:
Option A:$25.20.
Option B:$25.71.
