$936.41 is the new price of the bond.

<u>Explanation:</u>

<u>New price of the bond after using the duration is calculated as follows:</u>

Purchase date = 01 june 2016, Maturity date = 01 june 2024, frequency = 1

Face value = $10000, Annual coupon rate = 5.20 percent, Yield to maturity = 6.40 percent,

NPER = 6.688257877

PMT = $52.00

New price of the bond = $936.41 ( rounded to two decimal places)

Note: I have used an excel formula so as to calculate the new price of the bond.

Sindrei [870]

Answer:

14.58%

Explanation:

WACC = weight of equity x cost of equity + weight of debt x cost of debt x (1 - tax rate) + weight of preferred equity x dividend yield

According to the capital asset price model: Expected rate of return = risk free + beta x (market rate of return - risk free rate of return)

r= 3% + 1.1 x 8 = 11.8

equity = 0.4 x 11.8% = 4.72

d = 0.4 x 5 x (1 -0.21) = 1.58

p = 0.2 x 6 =  1.2

11.8 + 1.58 + 1.2 =
