Western Electric has 34,000 shares of common stock outstanding at a price per share of $83 and a rate of return of 12.80 percent

grin007 [14]

Answer:

11.03 %

Explanation:

Cost of Capital = Cost of equity x Weight of Equity + Cost of Preferred Stock x Weight of Preferred Stock + Cost of Debt x Weight of Debt.

where,

Cost of equity = 12.80 %

Cost of Preferred Stock = 8.20 %

Cost of Debt = 8.20 x (1 - 0.40) = 4.92 %

also,

Total Market Value = 34,000 x $83 + 7,500 x $97.00 + $416,000 x 113%

= $2,822,000 + $727,500 + $470,080

= $4,019,580

Weight of Equity = $2,822,000 ÷ $4,019,580 = 0.70

Weight of Preferred Stock = $727,500 ÷ $4,019,580 = 0.18

Weight of Debt = $470,080 ÷ $4,019,580 = 0.12

therefore,

Cost of Capital = 12.80 % x 0.70 + 8.20 % x 0.18 + 4.92 % x 0.12

= 11.03 %
