What is the ebit-eps indifference point?

The EBIT-EPS indifference point is a calculation used in determining optimal capital structures. What that means is firms typically finance their operations with two primary means, equity and debt. Back to the indifference point, algebraically and graphically when the earnings per share for debt and equity financing alternatives are equal, you have the EBIT-EPS indifference point. Put another way a firm can finance their operations at the same cost, with either debt or equity, at the indifference point.

EPS (debt financing) = EPS (equity financing)
