Answer:

b. 8.82%

Explanation:

WACC = Cost of equity x Weight of equity + Cost of Preferred Stock x Weight of Preferred Stock + Cost of Debt x Weight of Debt

Cost of Preferred Stock calculation :

Cost of Preferred Stock = Expected dividend / Market Price x 100

                                        = $6 / $50 x 100

                                        = 12 %

After tax cost of debt calculation :

After tax cost of debt = Interest x (1 - tax rate)

                                    = 8 % x (1 - 0.35)

                                    = 5.20 %

therefore,

WACC = 15% x 30 % + 12 % x 10 %+ 5.20 % x 60 %

           = 8.82 %

Lynna [10]

Net income = $68,000

Preferred cash dividend = $18,000

So, we can calculate the basic earning per share by using following formula,

Basic Earning per share = ( Net income - Preferred cash dividend) ÷ Outstanding common shares

= ($68,000 - $18,000) ÷ [( 58,000 × 2) + (28,000 × 2 × 6/12)

= $50,000 ÷ [ 116,000 + 28,000]

= $50,000 ÷ 144,000

= $0.35 per share
