Helen [10]

Answer:

8% and 4.8%

Explanation:

In this question, we use the Rate formula which is shown in the spreadsheet.  

The NPER represents the time period.  

Given that,  

Present value = $1,294.54

Future value or Face value = $1,000  

PMT = 1,000 × 11% = $110

NPER = 20 years

The formula is shown below:

The present value come in negative  

So, after solving this,  

1. The pretax cost of debt is 8%

2. And, the after tax cost of debt would be

= Pretax cost of debt × ( 1 - tax rate)

= 8% × ( 1 - 0.40)

= 4.8%
