Tiivistelmä: | This article aims to find out what is the optimal leverage for a downstream company that relies on implicit supplier contracts. According to the findings of this paper, the firm is able to increase its share of total surplus by performing a leveraged recapitalization prior to bargaining. This however, leads to debt overhang which limits the amount of credible bonuses. The model shows a leverage increase with supplier bargaining power and decrease with the use of non-verifiable inputs. Optimal financial structure is a trade-off between bargaining benefits and inefficiency caused by debt overhang. |
