Answer:

10.34%

Explanation:

Calculation to determine what will Nantucket's new WACC be

New Firm Value= $640,000 + (.34) ($300,000)

New Firm Value= $742,000

Capital Structure = $300,000 + $442,000

($742,000-$300,000=$442,000)

rs = .12 + (300/442) * (.12 - .08) * (1 - .34)

rs= .12 + .0179

rs = .1379*100

rs = 13.79%

Now let calculate the New WACC

New WACC = (300/742) * (.08) * (1 - .34) + (442/742) * (.1379)

New WACC= .0213 + .0821

New WACC= .1034*100

New WACC= 10.34%

Therefore what will Nantucket's new WACC be is 10.34%
