Recapitalization

Tartan Industries currently has total capital equal to $8 million, has zero debt, is in the 40% federal-plus-state tax bracket, has a net income of $3 million, and distributes 40% of its earnings as dividends. Net income is expected to grow at a constant rate of 5% per year, 460,000 shares of stock are outstanding, and the current WACC is 13.50%.
