Answer:

Weight of debt, Wd = 0.4842 or 48.42%

Explanation:

WACC = Wd×Rd×(1-t)+We×Ke+Wp×Kp

W is weights of respective portfolios

R is return on respective portfolios

Wd+We+Wp = 1

9.50% = Wd×4.80%+(0.93-Wd)×14.70%+0.07×8.90%

9.5% = Wd×4.80%+13.671%-14.70%×Wd+0.623%

9.90%×Wd = 4.794%

Weight of debt, Wd = 0.4842 or 48.42%
