Answer:

It is a better deal to finance through bonds payable, as the projected earnings per share is 2.76 while, financing through equity the EPS is 0.4125

Explanation:

current income: 150,000

additional income 300,000

if finance through equity:

300,000 - 40% tax rate = 180,000

scenario income 150,000 + 180,000 = 330,000

EPS: 330,000 / (100,000+700,000) = 330,000/800,000 = 0.4125

if finance through debt:

1,000,000 x 9% = 90,000 interest expense

(300,000 - 90,000 )  - 40% taxrate = 126,000 after interet and taxes

scenario income 150,000 + 126,000 = 276,000

EPS 276,000/ 100,000 = 2.76
