Answer: 7.43%
Explanation:
The yield to maturity simply refers to the total return that is expected on a bond as long as the bond is held till it matures.
In this case, since the investor is indifferent between this municipal bond and an otherwise identical taxable corporate bond, the yield to maturity of the corporate bond will be:
4.83% = Corporate bond YTM × ( 1- 35%)
4.83% = Corporate bond YTM × 65%
Corporate bond YTM = 4.83% / 65%
Corporate bond YTM = 0.0483/0.65
Corporate bond YTM = 7.43%
The yield to maturity of the corporate bond is 7.43%

Answer:
WACC = 0.16637 OR 16.637%
Explanation:
WACC or weighted average cost of capital is the cost of a firm's capital structure which can comprise of debt, preferred stock and common equity. The WACC for a firm with only debt and common equity can be calculated as follows,
WACC = wD * rD * (1-tax rate) + wE * rE
Where,
- w represents the weight of each component based on market value in the capital structure
- r represents the cost of each component
- D and E represents debt and equity respectively
To calculate WACC, we first need to calculate the Market value an cost of equity.
The market value of equity = 30 million shares * $40 per share
MV of equity = $1200 million
The cost of equity can be found using the formula for Price today (P0) under constant growth model of DDM.
P0 = D1 / (r - g)
40 = 4 / (r - 0.07)
40 * (r - 0.07) = 4
40r - 2.8 = 4
40r = 4+2.8
r = 6.8 / 40
r = 0.17 or 17%
MV of debt = 40 million * 96.5% => $38.6 million
Total MV of capital structure = 38.6 + 1200 = 1238.6 million
WACC = 38.6/1238.6 * 0.08 * (1-0.33) + 1200/1238.6 * 0.17
WACC = 0.16637 OR 16.637%
