Answer:

WACC - new project = 6.408% rounded off to 6.41%

Explanation:

The WACC or weighted average cost of capital is the cost of a firm's capital structure. The capital structure can consist of one or more of the following components namely debt, preferred stock and common equity. The WACC is calculated as follows,

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

Where,

  • w represents the weight of each component
  • r represents the cost of each component
  • D, P and E represents debt, preferred stock and common equity
  • rD * (1 - tax rate) is the after tax cost of debt

We first need to calculate the WACC of the company and then adjust it for the new project.

WACC = 35% * 3.28%  +  65% * 10.4%

WACC = 7.908%

As the new project is less risky and has an adjustment factor of -1.5%, the required rate of return for the new project will be,

WACC - new project = 7.908%  -  1.5%  

WACC - new project = 6.408% rounded off to 6.41%

Since the time incurred for the product was 2300 hours while the budgeted time was (600 × 4) = 2400 hours, then the variable overhead efficiency variance is favorable.
