Answer:
WACC = 11.45 %
Explanation:
Weighted average cost of capital is the average cost of all of the long-term types of finance used by a company weighted according to the that amount of finance used in relation to the total pool of fund
WACC = (Wd×Kd) + (We×Ke) + (Wp × Kp)
After-tax cost of debt = Before tax cost of debt× (1-tax rate)
Kd-After-tax cost of debt = 11.1%(1-0.4) =6.66%
Ke-Cost of equity = 14.7%
Kp= Cost of preferred stock = 12.2%
Wd-Weight of debt =100/270=0.370
We-Weight of equity = 140/270=0.518
Wp= weight of preferred stock = 30/270=0.111
WACC = (0.518× 14.7%) + (0.370 × 6.7%) + (0.111×12.2) = 11.447%
WACC = 11.45 %

Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below;
a) The In-house purchasing cost last year is
= Fixed costs + Variable costs
=$85,000 + Total number of purchase orders × cost per order
= $85,000 + 1400 × 15
= $106,000
b)
The outsourcing cost is
Outsourcing cost = Fixed costs +Variable costs
= $100,000 + Total number of purchase orders × cost per order
= $100,000 + 1400 × 5
= $107,000
c) Total number of purchase orders = 1600
In-house purchasing cost = 85,000 + 1600 × $15 = $109000
Outsourcing cost = $100,000 + 1600 × $5 = $108000
Yes, David should outsource as the outsourcing cost is less than the in-house purchasing cost.
