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%

B.Small glove 8.52

Medium glove 10.65

Large glove 12.78

Explanation:

Pattern Department = 165,200/2,900

= 56.9 Approximately 57 per DLH

Cut and Sew Department = 273,000/3,500

= 78 per DLH

Therefore two production department factory overhead rates will be :

Pattern Department 57 per DLH

Cut and Sew Department 78 per DLH

b) Calculation of the factory overhead cost per unit

Small glove (57*.04+78*.08)=8.52

Medium glove (57*.05+78*.10)=10.65

Large glove (57*.06+78*.12)=12.78

Therefore the factory overhead per unit for each product will be: Small glove 8.52

Medium glove 10.65

Large glove 12.78
