Answer:

The correct answer to the following question is option E) 9.06% .

Explanation:

Here the cost of equity given is  - 11.8%

Pre tax cost of debt- 6.9%

Tax rate- 35%

So the after tax cost of debt - 6.9% x 65%

= 4.485%

The debt to equity ratio - .6

So the weight of debt - .6 / ( 1 + .06 )

= .375

Weight of equity - 1 / ( 1 + .06 )

= .625

Weighted average cost of capital =

Debts cost x weight of debt + Equity cost x weight of equity

= 4.485 x .375 + 11.8 x .625

= 1.681875 + 7.735

= 9.06%

c. the corporation can use the assets of the owners to pay for corporate liabilities.

This happen during the liquidation process. To pay for corporate liabilities, owners had to sell their assets with the equal value of their percentage of their ownership times the amount of liabilities.
