Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

A Firm

The firm's WACC is:

= 12.16%

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Common Bonds

Stock

Outstanding shares/bonds 2,000,000 2,000

Market price per unit $2 $1,200

Total market value $4,000,000 $2,400,000

Total value of debt and equity = $6,400,000

Weight 62.5% 37.5% ($2,400/$6,400*100)

Cost of bonds (coupon rate) = 10%

Tax rate = 34%

Firm's beta = 1.5

Risk-free rate = 5%

Market risk premium = 7%

After-tax cost of bonds = 6.6% (1 - 0.34) * 10%

Cost of common stock =

Risk Free Rate + Beta x (Market Return - Risk Free Rate)

= 5% + 1.5 x (7%)

= 5% + 10.5%

= 15.5%

WACC = 15.5% * 62.5% + 6.6% * 37.5%

= 0.096875 + 0.02475

= 0.1216

= 12.16%
