Answer:

None of the choices is correct , please find step by step explanation to get the WACC below.

Explanation:

First, find the pretax cost of debt. Using a financial calculator, input the following;

Maturity of the bond; N = 25

Price of the bond; PV = -(0.97 *1000) = -970

Annual coupon payment; PMT = 0.10*1000 = 100

Face value of the bond ; FV = 1000

then CPT I/Y = 10.339% (this is the pretax cost of debt rD)

Next, find the cost of equity; rE = (D1/Price) +g

rE = (1/15) + 0.05

rE = 0.0667 + 0.05

rE = 0.1167 or 11.67%

Market value of equity=  5,000,000 *$15 = $75,000,000

Market value of debt = 0.97 *$10,000,000 = $9,700,000

Total market value = 75,000,000 +9,700,000 = $84,700,000

WACC = wE*rE + wD*rD(1-tax)

wE; weight of equity = 75,000,000/84,700,000 = 0.8855

wD; weight of debt = 9,700,000 / 84,700,000 = 0.1145

WACC = (0.8855*  0.1167) + [ 0.1034(1-0.30)]

WACC = 0.1033 + 0.0724

WACC = 0.1757 or 17.57%

VikaD [51]
The answer to the question above is "brand names cause consumers to be more sensitive to product differences" based on the result of Roberto's taste test. In the blind test, Roberto did not feel the unsavory flavor from the generic store-coke and he prefers that generic store-coke. This test proves that Roberto's taste is distracted by the brand.
