Answer:
The company's WACC is 9.14%
Explanation:
cost of preferred stock
= (dividend on preferred stock)/(current market price)
= [$100*4%]/$72
= 5.56%
total finance = debt + equity + preferred stock
= (8,000*$1,060) + (310,000*$57) + (15,000*$72)
= $8,480,000 + $17,670,000 + $1,080,000
= $27,230,000
weight of debt = debt/total finance
= $8,480,000/$27,230,000
= 0.31
weight on equity = equity/total finace
= $1.080.000/$27,230,000
= 0.04
WACC
= (weight of debt*after tax cost of debt) + (weight on equity*cost of equity)
= (0.31*0.0393) + (0.65-0.1185) + (0.04*0.0556)
= 9.14%
Therefore, The company's WACC is 9.14%

Answer:
Projects E,F and G should NOT be considered.
Optimal Capital is $5,750,000
Explanation:
The accept-or-reject rule, using the IRR method, is to acceptthe project if its Internal Rate of Return (IRR) is higher than theWeighted Average Cost of Capital(k) [r>k]. The project shall berejected if its internal rate of return is e lower than theWeighted Average Cost of Capital cost of (r<k)
Accept if r>k
Reject if r<k
Mayaccept if r = k
If the Weighted Average Cost of Capitl (WACC) is less than IRRrate, then the project has positive NPV; if it is equal to IRR, theproject has a Zero NPV, and if it is greater than the IRR, theproject has negative NPV.
The projects should be accepted as the rate of return on theproject is higher than the WACC(10.8%) which means that theprojects will be profitable as the returns are higher than the costof the project (capital). Considering this projects E,F and G should NOT be considered.
And considering the sizes the Optimal Capital is $5,750,000 (the addition of sizes of all projects)
I think policymakers would link social security payments to inflation to help the recipients with the increased cost of living due to inflation of prices also. I don't think small increases due to a low rate of inflation is a downside because the low rate of inflation means goods and services will not increase much in price so will still be relatively affordable.
Apply for it and be a lucky man to live
