Where,

If preferred stock is given
EBIT
DFL = PD
EBT -
1- t
Where,
PD = Preferred stock dividend
t = Tax rate IN Re. 1.
Note: If DFL is 3 times it indicates if EBIT change by 1%, then EBT or EPS will change by 3%.
c) Combined or Total Leverage:
It is the product of DOL and DFL. The combined leverage is the measurement of risk caused by fixed
operating costs and fixed financing cost together. It shows impact on profitability due to total fixed costs
of the firm. In other word combined leverage is the combination of DOL and DFL. If the measure
impact of both risk together, the small change in sales volume shows large change in EPS of the firm.
The Degree of Combined (DCL) leverage measures change in EBT or EPS due to change in sales. DCL
can be minimized by minimizing DOL and DFL. It can be calculated as follows:
DCL = DOL*DFL
If there is no debt capital used then capital consist only equity and the interest becomes zero and return
on invested capital is equivalent to Return on equity.
Net Income
Return on equity = Total equity
Where,
S = Selling price per unit
V = Variable cost per unit
fc = Fixed operating costs
The concept of operating breakeven can be expressed as following example and graph:
A firm has Rs. 75000 in fixed cost and it sells Rs. 15 per unit and has Rs. 10 per unit variable cost.
fc Rs.75,000
BEP in unit = = = 15,000 units
S-V Rs. 15 - Rs. 10
Sales revenue = S x Q = 15,000 x Rs. 15 = Rs. 225,000
Total cost at this quantity = fc + Vc
= Rs. 75,000 + 15,000 x Rs. 10
= Rs. 225,000

Production Quantity
In above graph, x-axis represents level of production and y-axis represents sales revenue and costs. At
15000 productions level the total sales revenue line cuts the total operating cost line, which is the
breakeven point or zero operating profit situation. So if firm produces more than 15000 units the
revenue will exceed total operating cost and it can make profit but below the 15000 units firm has to
bear loss. So this analysis provides guideline to set production level and making control policy for costs.

(I) calculate the indifference point of EBIT assuming 50% tax rate.
(II) Which plan is profitable if Jyoti Company’s EBIT is Rs. 200,000?

Calculation of indifference point of EBIT
Example
The total assets of X company includes Rs. 50,00,000 and is considering to finance these assets either
50% from debt and rest from equity or 40% from debt and rest from equity . Other information is as
follows.
Fixed cost: (FC) = 10, 00,000
Variable cost = 50% of sales
Interest on debt = 10%
Tax rate = 50%
Per value per share = Rs. 100
Required:
(I) Indifferent point of sales
(ii) Which plan is profitable if actual sales are Rs. 40, 00,000
Here, sales =X
VC= 50% of x =0.5X
I1 = interest on debt under plan I
= (Rs. 50, 00,000 x 50 ) x 10
100 100
= 250,000
I2 = interest on debt under plan II
= (Rs. 50, 00,000 x 40 ) x 10
100 100
= Rs. 200,000
T = 50% = 0.50
N1 (50, 00,000 x 50) ÷ 100
100
= Rs. 250,000 ÷100
= Rs. 250,000 shares
N2 = (50, 00,000 x 60) ÷ 100
100
= 30, 00,000 ÷100
= 30,000 shares
2500 30,000
0.25X -625000 = 0.25X - 600,000
5 6
1.5X-3750000 = 1.25X -30, 00,000
1.5X-1.25X = 3750.000- 30, 00,000
0.25X = 750,000
X = 750,000
0.25
= Rs. 30, 00,000
Indifference point of sales is Rs. 30, 00,000. At this point of sales EPS under both alternative is equal
(I.e. Rs. 5)
