Given cash flow = $40,000
Unlevered cost of equity = 10%
Amount borrowed = $20,000
Initial equity cost = [40,000/ (1+ 0.10) ]– amount borrowed = [40,000/1.1] – 20,000 = $16,363.6363
Amount to be repaid = amount borrowed * (1+ borrowing rate) = 20,000 *(1+ 0.05) = 20,000 * 1.05 = $21,000
Now, the cash flow of equity after repayment = initial cash flow – amount repaid = 40,000 – 21,000 = $19,000
Expected return on equity = [Cash flow of equity after repayment / initial equity cost] -1
= [19,000/ 16,363.6363] -1 = 1.161111 -1 = 0.161111
= 16.11%
Expected return on equity = 16.11%
