Answer:

6.94%

Explanation:

The computation of the company WACC is shown below:

= Weightage of debt × cost of debt × (1 - tax rate)  + (Weightage of  common stock) × (cost of common stock)

where,

Cost of common stock is

= Dividend ÷ Stock price + Growth rate

= $2 ÷ 50 + 5.0%

= 4% + 5%

= 9%

So, the company WACC is                                                                              

= (0.40 × 7%) × ( 1 - 45%) +  (0.60 × 9%)

= 1.54% + 5.4%

 = 6.94%

Hence, the company WACC is 6.94%
