A firm has a capital structure with $7 in equity and $1 of debt. The cost of equity capital is 0.16 and the pretax cost of debt
nlexa [21]

Answer:

0.147 or 14.7%

Explanation:

Equity (E) =$7

Debt (D) = $1

Cost of equity capital (Ce) = 0.16

Pretax cost of debt (Cd) = 0.08

Tax rate (r) = 0.3

The weighted average cost of capital of the firm is given by the following relationship:

WACC=\frac{E}{E+D}*C_e +\frac{D}{E+D}*C_d*(1-r)\\WACC = \frac{7}{7+1}*0.16 +\frac{1}{7+1}*0.08*(1-0.3)\\WACC= 0.14+0.007\\WACC =0.147 = 14.7\%

The weighted average cost of capital of the firm is 0.147 or 14.7%.
