Answer:
26.43 %
Explanation:
The Capital Structure is based on the Market Weight of the Sources of Finance as shown below :
Equity market value = Number of shares × price/share
Equity market value = 10,200 × $36
Equity market value = $367,200
Current debt value = Number of bonds × price/bond
Current debt value = 520 × (1930)
Current debt value = $1,003,600
Preferred stock value = Number of shares × price/share
Preferred stock value = 215 × $87
Preferred stock value = $18,705
Total capital = Common equity value + Debt value + Preferred stock value
Total capital = $367,200 + $1,003,600 + $18,705
Total capital = $1,389,505
Weight of Equity = Equity value / Total capital
Weight of Equity = $367,200 / $1,389,505
Weight of Equity = 26.43 %
