Consider the following scenario:
You are the Comptroller for a healthcare organization and you are tasked with analyzing potential scenarios regarding their funding.
Problem #1: Changing Debt & Interest Rates
- They have an operating income of 1,500,000 SAR
- They have assets of 7,500,000 SAR
- The Tax rate is 22.5%
- They currently do not have any debt but are considering the following scenarios:
Scenario A
No debt
Scenario B
Interest rate 9.5%
B1 increase debt to 2,500,000 SAR
B2 increase debt to 5,000,000 SAR
Scenario C
Interest rate 12.5%
B1 increase debt to 2,500,000 SAR
B2 increase debt to 5,000,000 SAR
Based on the above information, address the following questions:
Compare Scenario A (no debt) to Scenario B (increasing debt 9.5% interest rate)
a. What impact does increasing the debt have on the taxable income?
- What impact does increasing the debt have on the net income?
- What impact does increasing the debt have on the dollar return to investors?
Compare Scenario B (increasing debt 9.5% interest rate) to Scenario C (increasing debt 12.5% interest rate)
a. What impact does the higher interest rate have on the taxable income?
- What impact does the higher interest rate have on the net income?
- What impact does the higher interest rate have on the dollar return to investors?

- What the company can expect its net income to be given these probabilities
- What the company can expect dollar return to investors to be given these probabilities

Scenario E
However, assume the company now has 5,000,000 SAR Debt
Calculate:
a. The expected net income for each probability
- The expected dollar return to investors for each probability
- The expected ROE for each probability
- What the company can expect its net income to be given these probabilities
- What the company can expect dollar return to investors to be given these probabilities
- What the company can expect its ROE to be given these probabilities
Based upon those calculations answer the following questions:
a. Does the increased leverage offer the potential of an increased ROE?
- What impact does the increased leverage have on the risk to
