Answer:

The company's WACC is 9.14%

Explanation:

cost of preferred stock

= (dividend on preferred stock)/(current market price)

= [$100*4%]/$72

= 5.56%

total finance = debt + equity + preferred stock

= (8,000*$1,060) + (310,000*$57) + (15,000*$72)

= $8,480,000 + $17,670,000 + $1,080,000

= $27,230,000

weight of debt = debt/total finance

= $8,480,000/$27,230,000

= 0.31

weight on equity = equity/total finace

= $1.080.000/$27,230,000

= 0.04

WACC

= (weight of debt*after tax cost of debt) + (weight on equity*cost of equity)

= (0.31*0.0393) + (0.65-0.1185) + (0.04*0.0556)

= 9.14%

Therefore, The company's WACC is 9.14%

romanna [79]

Answer:

present worth = $7380

Explanation:

given data

initial cash flow = $23,000

geometric gradient = 2%

interest rate i = 10% per year

time period = 5 year

solution

we get here present worth cost that is

present worth = initial cash flow × $\frac{1-(\frac{1+g}{1+i})^t}{1-g}$ ......................1

put here value and we get

present worth = $23,000 × $\frac{1-(\frac{1+0.02}{1+0.10})^5}{1-0.02}$

present worth = $23,000 × 0.32087

present worth = $7380
