Answer:

The beta is 1

Explanation:

The computation of beta using the CAPM model is shown below:

As we know that

Expected rate of return = Risk free rate of return + Beta × Market risk premium

9.5% = 5% + Beta × 9.0%

9.5% - 5% = Beta × 9.0%

9.0% = Beta × 9.0%

So, the beta is 1

We simply applied the above formula so that the correct value could come

And, the same is to be considered

Answer:

WACC = 11.1%

Explanation:

The weighted Average cost of Capital is the average cost of capital for the different sources of long-term capital available to a firm weighted according to the proportion each source of finance bears to the total capital in the pool.

Market of securities

Common stock = $80 × 32,500= 2,600,000.

Preferred stock = $95.50 × 7,350= 701,925.00

Bond = 407,000/100 × 111.5= 453,805.00

Cost of each capital type

Common stock= 12.95

Preferred stock = (7.90%× 100)/95.50= 8.3%

Bond= 8.11%× (1-0.4)=4.87%

WACC

Type Market Value Cost Market value cost

Common stock 2,600,000. 12.95% 336,700.00

Preferred 701,925.00 8.3% 58,065.00

Bond 453,805.00 4.87% 22,100.30

Total 3,755,730.00 416,865.30

WACC = (416,865.30 / 3,755,730.00) × 100

= 11.1%

WACC = 11.1%
