Answer:
The computation is shown below:
Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
For weighted cost of each source of capital is
Debt:
= Cost of debt × Weight of debt
= 9% × 50%
= 4.5%
Equity
= Cost of equity × weight of equity
= 16% × 0.15
= 2.4%
Preferred stock
= Cost of preferred stock × weight of preferred stock
= 12.50% × 35%
= 4.375%
Now the weighted average cost of capital is
= 4.5% + 2.4% + 4.375%
= 11.275%
Therefore in the first part we multiplied the cost with the weight of each source of capital
And, then we add the all answers
