Corporate finance Qs

Why is accelerated depreciation increase NPV, compared to straight line?

Why is use of debt reduce net income but increase ROE?

Why is use of debt increase the rate of change in ROE?

Thanks!

accelerated depreciation has a higher depreciation than straight line. so effectively you pay less taxes or in other words have more cash flows. leads to increase in NPV

Use of debt increases "required" ROE, as the leverage increases, the equity investors want to be compensated for the leverage.

On ROE, use of debt increases D and reduces E, so you have a smaller equity, hence increasing ROE.

You're right about the offsetting effect, but ROE will increase, because your leverage increases in DuPont as well, the A/E part.
