Answer: 16.3%

Explanation:

Given the details in the question, the cost of preferred capital can be calculated using the CAPM method.

Cost of preferred stock using the Capital Asset Pricing Model is:

= Risk free rate + Beta * ( Market return - Risk free rate)

= 4% + 1.23 * (14% - 4%)

= 16.3%

uppose your firm has decided to use a divisional WACC approach to analyze projects. The firm currently has four divisions, A thr
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

WACC for A: 9.05%

WACC for B: 9.50%

WACC for C: 12.20%

WACC for D: 12.65%

Explanation:

WACC for a division will be equal: Percentage of Debt in capital employed by the Division x Cost of Debt + Percentage of Equity in capital employed by the Division x Cost of equity = 50% x 6% + 50% x ( Risk free rate + Beta of each Division x Risk premium) = 3% + 50% x ( 4% + beta of each Division x Risk premium)

Risk premium for the 4 Divisions is equal to (Cost of equity for the whole firm - Risk free rate) / beta = 9%

Thus WACC for a division will be equal:  3% + 50% x ( 4% + beta of each Division x 9%).

Substitute beta of each Division from A to D provided in the question, we have: WACC for A: 9.05%; WACC for B: 9.5%; WACC for C: 12.2%; WACC for D: 12.65%.
