Answer:
10.67%
Explanation:
Gecko Company
Gecko = Expected Earnings growth rate = 8% annually
As there are no Capital gains tax, thus after Tax returns = Pretax returns
= 8%
Expected Dividend yield of Gordon = 5%
After tax returns = 5(1-.25)
=5(0.75)
= 3.75%
Assuming the pay out ratio = 100%
Gordon’s required pretax return = 8/ (1-.25)
=8/0.75
= 10.67%
At pretax return of 10.67% on Gordon the after tax returns on both the stocks are equal.

Answer:
8.30%
Explanation:
The weighted average cost of capital of the company is computed using the WACC formula below:
WACC=(We*Ke)+(Wp*Kp)+(Wd*kd)
We=weight of common equity=50%
Ke=cost of retained earnings which is a proxy for the cost of equity=11.50%
Wp=weight of preferred stock=20%
Kp=cost of preferred stock=6.00%
Wd=weight of debt=30%
Kd=after-tax cost of debt=4.50%
WACC=(50%*11.50%)+(20%*6.00%)+(30%*4.50%)
WACC=8.30%
