Explanation:

a)

WACC = K_e(\frac{E}{E+D}) + K_d(1-t)(\frac{D}{E+D})

Ke 0.12

Equity weight 0.5

Kd(1-t) = after tax cost of debt = 0.06

Debt Weight = 0.5

WACC = 0.12(0.5) + 0.06(0.5)

WACC 9.00000%

c)

WACC = K_e(\frac{E}{E+D}) + K_d(1-t)(\frac{D}{E+D})

Ke 0.12

Equity weight 0.3

Kd(1-t) = after tax cost of debt = 0.06

Debt Weight 0.7

WACC = 0.12(0.3) + 0.06(0.7)

WACC 7.80000%

d)

WACC = K_e(\frac{E}{E+D}) + K_d(1-t)(\frac{D}{E+D})

<em>Ke 0.16</em>

Equity weight 0.3

Kd(1-t) = after tax cost of debt = 0.06

Debt Weight 0.7

WACC = 0.16(0.3) + 0.06(0.7)

WACC 9.00000%

<u>3. Issue</u>

The annual market rate for the bonds (YTM) ,  12% is greater than the coupon rate of the bond 9%.

The Price will be less than the par value and we say that the bond is trading at a discount.

<u>4. Computation of the Issue Price, PV</u>

PMT = $24,300

n = 12

YTM = 12 %

FV = $540,000

p/yr = 2

PV = ?

Using a Financial Calculator, the Issue Price, PV is $470,090.86
