OMG Inc. has 4 million shares of common stock outstanding, 3 million shares of preferred stock outstanding, and 50 thousand bond

babymother [125]

Answer:

$w_{d}$ = 0.3274 or, 32.74%

Explanation:

We know,

Capital Structure = Debt + Common Stock + Preferred stock

Given,

Common Stock = 4,000,000 shares

Share price = $21

Total common stock = No. of shares x share price

Total common stock = 4,000,000 shares × $21 = $84,000,000

Preferred Stock = 3,000,000 shares

Share price = $10

Total preferred stock = $10 x 3,000,000 shares

Total preferred stock = $30,000,000

Debt rate = 111% = 1.11

Debt = 50,000 bonds x $1000 par x 1.11

Debt = $55,500,000

Total Capital = $(55,500,000 + 84,000,000 + 30,000,000)

Total capital structure = $169,500,000

The weight for debt in the computation of OMG's WACC

= $\frac{Debt}{Total Capital Structure}$

= $\frac{55,500,000}{169,500,000}$

= 0.3274

or, 32.74%
