Answer:

11.78%

Explanation:

Weighted average cost of capital WACC determines firms cost of capital. It includes all sources of finance which are included in firms capital structure. The WACC is calculated with given formula:  

WACC = E/V Re + D/V * Rd (1 - T)

Re = cost of equity

V = Firms Market value of Debt and Equity

Rd = Cost of debt

E = market value of equity

D = market value of debt

T = Marginal Tax rate

WACC = 14.7 * 1 / 1.45 + 8.1 * 0.45 / 1.45 (1 - .34)

WACC = .1013 + 0.0165

WACC = 11.78%

raketka [301]
Ok, I'm going to tell you how to calculate it and the answer.
so what you do is add up your assets and then add up your liabilities.
then you subtract your liabilities from your assets in this case your assets add up to 4,700 and your liabilities add up to 3,500.
then you subtract 4,700 from 3,500 since your liability is a lower number.
And then your answer would be $1,200 dollars hope it helped :D
