Abstract

This paper extends the Miller bond market equilibrium analysis to a multiperiod setting. From the model developed we derive several predictions relating optimal financial leverage to firm characteristics and to the business cycle. The analysis also reveals some interesting determinants of the market value of the tax subsidy associated with corporate debt.
