zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

a)

Pre-tax Cost Of Debt = 7.64%

b)

Tax Rate = 40%    

Post Tax cost of debt = 7.33% * (1 - 40%) = 4.58%  

So Post Tax cost of Debt = 4.58%

Explanation:

Bond Par Value =  12,900,000  

Bond Market Price 93% of face value = 11,997,000  

Years To maturity = 5.00  

Annual Interest 5.9% = 761,100

Formula = [Annual Interest + (Par Value-Market Value) / Years to Maturity] / [(Par value+Market Price*2)/3]

Year To Maturity = [761100 + (12900000 - 11997000) / 5] / (12900000 + 2*11997000) / 3

Year to maturity = 7.33%
