b. Zoom Inc. will have free cash flow 10 million in the next year and its free cash flow will grow at a rate of 4% per year thereafter. Zoom has a debt equity ratio of 1, an equity cost of capital of 10%, and a debt cost of capital of 5%. What is the present value of Zoom’s interest tax shield?
Weighted Cost of Capital = After tax Cost of Debt * Weight of Debt + Cost of Equity * Weight of Equity
Weighted Cost of Capital = 5% * (1 - Tax) * 0.50 + 10% * 0.50
Weighted Cost of Capital = 3.50% * 0.50 + 10% * 0.50
Weighted Cost of Capital = 6.75%
