Answer:

5.74%

Explanation:

WACC = weight of equity x cost of equity +  weight of debt x cost of debt x (1 - tax rate)

weight of debt =  D / (D + E) = 1.35/ (1.35 + 1) = 0.574468 = 57.4468%

weight of equity = 100% - 57.4468% = 42.5532%

let x represent pretax cost of debt

8.1% = 0.425532 x 14% +( 0.574468x) x 0.65

8.1% = 0.373404x + 5.957448%

solve for x

x = 5.74%
