Answer:

After tax cost of debt is 5.239%

Explanation:

Given:

Face value = $1,000

Bond price = $895

Coupon payments = 0.035×1,000 = $35 (coupon payment is paid semi-annually so 7% is divided by 2)

Maturity = 20×2 = 40 periods

Using bond price formula:

Bond price = Present value of face value + present value of coupon payments

Use excel function =RATE(nper,pmt,PV,FV) to calculate cost of debt.

substituting the values:

=RATE(40,35,-895,1000)

we get Pre-Tax cost of debt = 4.03% semi- annual

Annual rate is 4.03%×2 = 8.06%

Note: PV is negative as bond price is cash outflow.

After tax cost of debt = 8.06(1 - 0.35)

                                     = 5.239%

What percentage of greek students would participate in a hazing activity, even if it made them uncomfortable?
pogonyaev

Less than 10% is the percentage of Greek students that would participate in a hazing activity, even if it made them uncomfortable. This percentage is justifiable because student participation in hazing activities is prohibited and the accompanying danger to physical and mental health induced to a student is one factor that makes it more off-putting.
