Answer:

14.925%

Explanation:

Cost of equity = Unlevered Cost of Equity + (Unlevered Cost of Equity - Cost of debt)*Debt to value ratio / (1-debt to value ratio)*(1-Tax rate)

Cost of equity = 12% + (12%-9%)*0.6/(1 - 0.6)*(1 - 35%)

Cost of equity = 0.12 + 0.018/0.4*0.65

Cost of equity = 0.12 + 0.02925

Cost of equity = 0.14925

Cost of equity = 14.925%

So, Alabaster's cost of equity will be 14.925%.

Answer: The coupon rate is 13%

Explanation:

We would first calculate the Coupon Payment and then later using the coupon payment we would compute the Coupon rate.

PV = \frac{FV}{(1+r)^{N} } + A [[\frac{1-\frac{1}{(1+r)^{N} } }{r} ]]

Where,

FV = $1,000

PV = $1,291.31

r = 8%

N = 8 Years

A = Coupon Payment

1291.31 = \frac{1000}{(1+0.08)^{8} } + A [\frac{1-\frac{1}{(1+0.08)^{8} } }{0.08} ]

Solve for A

A = 130.69

The coupon payment is $130

Coupon rate = (Coupon payment / Face value) x 100

                     = \frac{130}{1000} x 100

                     = 13 %
