Apply pecking order theory (Myers and Majluf, 1984) to analyze how information asymmetry drives financing hierarchy decisions. Use this skill when the user needs to explain why firms prefer internal over external financing, interpret equity issuance as a negative signal, evaluate capital raising decisions, or when they ask 'why did the stock drop on the equity offering', 'should we use debt or equity', or 'why do firms hoard cash'.
Apply the Modigliani-Miller theorem to analyze capital structure decisions and identify when financing choices affect firm value. Use this skill when the user needs to evaluate debt-equity tradeoffs, assess the impact of leverage on firm value, understand tax shield benefits, or when they ask 'does capital structure matter', 'should we take on more debt', or 'what is the optimal leverage ratio'.
