Solutions

Expert Solution

a] Cost of equity capital = D1/(P0-f)+g, where,
D1 = Next expected dividend
P0 = Current share price
f = Flotation cost per share
g = Growth rate
Substituting available values,
Cost of equity capital = 2/(22-2)+0.07 = 17.00%
b] Cost of preference shares = YTM
YTM using an online calculator = 15% 15.00%
c] Before tax cost of debenture = YTM
YTM using an online calculator = 13.76%
After tax cost of debt = YTM*(1-t) = 13.76%*(1-30%) = 9.63%
