Answer:

see explanation

Explanation:

Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) is the cost of a firm from permanent sources of capital pooled together.

WACC = Cost of equity x Weight of equity + Cost of Debt x Weight of Debt + Cost of Preference Stock x Weight of Preference Stock

where,

Cost of equity = Return on Risk free rate + Beta x Risk Premium

                        = 9.00 % + 2.5  x (14.00 % - 9.00%)

                        = 21.50 %

Cost of debt :

<em>similar</em>

N = 7 x 2 = 14

p/yr = 2

pmt = ($787.22 x 8%) ÷ 2 =

fv = $787.22 x number of bonds

pv = $80,000,000

<u>Always use the after tax cost of debt :</u>

after tax cost of debt = interest x ( 1 - tax rate)

VMariaS [17]

Answer:

The effective rate of protection for Canada’s steel industry is 21%

Explanation:

The computation of the effective rate is shown below:

Steel percentage = (Production worth of steel) ÷ (Taconite worth)

                             = ($1,000,000) ÷ ($100,000)

                             = 10%

And the tariff rate for steel is 20%

And the taconite percentage is 10%

So, the effective rate would be equal to

= Tariff rate for steel + taconite percentage × steel percentage

= 20% + 10% × 10%

= 20% + 1%

= 21%
