Answer:
Coupon rate is 6.4%
Explanation:
The coupon payment on a bond can be computed from a formula of current price of a bond
current price of a bond=coupon amount/yield to maturity
coupon amount=current price *yield to maturity
current price is $1039
yield to maturity is 6.2%
coupon rate =$1039*6.2%
=$64.42
Coupon rate=coupon amount/par value of bond
coupon amount $64.42
par value of bond=$1000
coupon rate =$64.42/$1000
=6.4%

Answer: 9.7%
Explanation:
Given Data
Rf = Risk free return = 6%,
Rpm = Risk premium = 4%,
Beta = 0.9
Wd = Debt = 20%
rd = cost of debt = 8%
We = equity = 80%
Re = Rf + Beta (Rpm)
= 0.06 +0.9 (0.04)
= 0.096 * 100
= 9.6%
Unlevered Equity Cost ;
ReU= Wd × rd + We × re
= 0.20 × 8% + 0.80 × 9.6%
= 9.28%
Levered Equity Cost:
New Debt = 60%,
New Equity = 40%,
New rd = 9%
ReL = ReU + (ReU - rd) (D ÷ E)
= 9.28% + (9.28% - 9%) (0.60 ÷ 0.40)
= 0.097 * 100
= 9.7%
