Optimal Capital Structure and the Term Structure of Interest Rates

Wang, Xin; Downing, Chris - Society for Computational Economics - SCE - 2005

In this paper we study corporate debt values, capital structure, and the term structure of interest rates in a unified framework. We employ numerical techniques to compute the firm's optimal capital structure and the value of its long-term risky debt and yield spreads when the value of the...
