Answer:

its weighted cost of capital for the coming year is 9.64%

Explanation:

WACC is the minimum return expected from a project. It shows the risk of the company.

<u>Calculation of WACC.</u>

Capital Source              Weight            Cost               Total

Debt                                  40%            6.60%             2.64%

Common Equity               60%             11.67%            7.00%

Total                                100%                                    9.64%

Cost of Debt = Market Interest Rate × ( 1 - tax rate)

                     = 11%×(1-0.40)

                     = 6.60%

Cost of Equity = (Next year`s dividend/Current Market Price of a share)+Expected growth rate

                       = ($1.40/$30)+0.07

                       = 11.67%
