Answer:
Weighted average cost of capital = 11.10%
Explanation:
Market value of common stock = $31,000 * 77 = $2,387,000
Market value of preferred shares = $7,200 * 94 = 676,800
Market value of debt = $398,000 * 110% = 437,800
Total market value = Market value of common stock + Market value of preferred shares + Market value of debt
= 2,387,000 + 676,800 + 437,800
= 3,501,600
Weight of common stock = Market value of common stock / Total market value
= $2,387,000 / $3,501,600
= 0.6817
Weight of debt = Market value of preferred shares / Total market value
=437,800 / 3,501,600
= 0.1250
Weight of preferred stock = Market value of debt / Total market value
= 676,800 / 3,501,600
= 0.1933
Preferred dividend = 7.6% of 100 = 7.6
Cost of preferred stock = (Preferred dividend / price) * 100
Cost of preferred stock = (7.6 / 94) * 100
Cost of preferred stock = 8.0851%
Weighted average cost of capital = (Weight of equity *cost of equity) + (Weight of preferred stock * cost of preferred stock) + (Weight of debt * after tax cost of deb
t)
Weighted average cost of capital = (0.6817 * 13.10%) + (0.1933 * 0.080851) + (0.1250 *0.0802*(1 - 0.39)
Weighted average cost of capital = 0.089303 + 0.015628 + 0.006115
Weighted average cost of capital = 0.1110
Weighted average cost of capital = 11.10%
