Answer:

31.5%

Explanation:

Given from the question kd = 7.0 %

Tax rate = 35 %

P0 = $ 28.86

Growth g = 4.9 %

D1 = $ 0.94

First find the cost of common stock by

rS = D1/P0 + g

=0.94/$28.86 + 0.49

=0.523

= 52.3%

Finally, calculate the weighted average cost of capital WACC,

using rs= 0.523,

Tax rate =43% =0.43

Equity E 100% - 43% = 57% =0.57 and

kd=7.0 % = 0.07

so WACC = (D/A)(1 -­ Tax rate)kd+(E/A)rs

= 0.43(1 ­- 0.43)(0.07) + 0.57(0.523)

0.0172 + 0.298

= 0.315

= 31.5%
