Tiivistelmä: | This paper explores a firm's capital structure choice with assets having outside value. Valuable assets implicitly provide a collateral, increasing tax shield exploitation. This paper's key feature is asset value (here as: a-v.) uncertainty, implying that it is unknown ex-ante whether the equity holders ex-post optimally sell the assets or reoptimize the capital structure. Ex-ante, more uncertain a-v. decreases leverage, but not firm value, and selling the assets becomes less likely. Firms should tend to invest in assets whose value is less correlated to changes in earnings etc. |
