Answer:
1. Debt
2. 8.75%
3. 8.85%
4. 6.195%
Explanation:
For computing the tax adjustment, the Debt capital component is taken
The normal formula to compute WACC is shown below:
= Weightage of debt × cost of debt × ( 1- tax rate) + (Weightage of preferred stock) × (cost of preferred stock) + (Weightage of common stock) × (cost of common stock)
The computation of the pre-tax cost of debt and after-tax cost of debt is shown below:
1. The after tax cost of debt would be
= Pretax cost of debt × ( 1 - tax rate)
= 12.50% × ( 1 - 0.30)
= 8.75%
The NPER represents the time period.
Given that,
Present value = $1,382.73
Assuming figure - Future value or Face value = $1,000
PMT = 1,000 × 13% = $130
NPER = 20 years
The formula is shown below:
= Rate(NPER;PMT;-PV;FV;type)
The present value come in negative
So, after solving this,
3. The pretax cost of debt is 8.85%
4. And, the after tax cost of debt would be
= Pretax cost of debt × ( 1 - tax rate)
= 8.85% × ( 1 - 0.30)
= 6.195%
