The value of debt tax shields in foundational corporate valuation models by nobel laureates modigliani and Miller (MM) continues to be a controversial issue that is central to our understanding of corporate finance. Rather than discounting debt interest payments using a riskless interest rate or unlevered equity rate, the present paper proposes the use of the levered cost of equity. Assuming no bankruptcy risk and no personal taxes, our revised tax model yields an inverted U-shaped firm value function with an interior optimal capital structure. Analyses are extended to Miller's personal tax extension of MM's tax model. Also, implications to corporate capital structure decisions and previous literature are discussed.
El valor del ahorro de impuestos de la deuda en los modelos fundamentales de valoración de empresas de los Premios nobel modigliani y Miller (MM) continúa siendo un tema controversial que es fundamental para nuestra comprensión de las finanzas corporativas. En lugar de descontar los pagos de intereses de la deuda con una tasa de interés libre de riesgo o la tasa del patrimonio sin apalancamiento, el presente trabajo propone el uso del costo del patrimonio con deuda. Suponiendo que no hay riesgos de quiebra y no hay impuestos personales de renta, nuestro modelo de impuestos una vez revisado obtiene una función del valor de la firma en forma de U invertida con una estructura óptima de capital interior. Los análisis se extienden a la extensión Miller con impuestos personales para el modelo con impuestos de MM. Además, se discuten la literatura existente y las implicaciones para las decisiones empresariales de estructura de capital.
O valor da economia de impostos da dívida nos modelos fundamentais de valoração de empresas dos Prêmios nobel modigliani y Miller (MM) continua sendo um tema controvertido e fundamental para nossa compreensão das finanças corporativas. Em vez de descontar os paga-mentos de juros da dívida com uma taxa de juro livre de risco ou com a taxa do patrimônio sem influência , o presente trabalho propõe o uso do custo do patrimônio com dívida. Supondo que não há riscos de quebra e não há impostos pessoais de renda, nosso modelo de impostos depois de revisado obtém uma função do valor da firma em forma de U invertida
com uma ótima estrutura de capital interior. As análises se estendem à extensão Miller com impostos pessoais para o modelo com impostos de MM . Além disso, discutem-se a literatura existente e as implicações para as decisões empresariais de estrutura de capital.
