refund question
Answer of Part a:
Face
Value = $2,000
Current Price = $2,110
Annual
Coupon Rate = 6.2%
Annual Coupon = $2,000 * 6.2% = $124
Time to Maturity = 28 years
Let annual YTM be i%
$2,110 = $124 * PVIFA(i%, 28) + $2,000 * PVIF(i%, 28)
Using
financial calculator:
N = 28
PV = -2,110
PMT = 124
FV = 2000
I = 5.80%
Annual YTM = 5.80%
Before-tax Cost of Debt = 5.80%
After-tax Cost of Debt = 5.80% * (1 - 0.21)
After-tax Cost of Debt =
4.58%
Answer of Part b:
Cost of Common Equity = Risk-free Rate + Beta *
(Market Expected Return – Risk Free Rate)
Cost of Common Equity = 3.5% + 1.05 * (10% - 3.5%)
Cost of Common Equity = 3.5% + 6.83%
Cost of Common Equity =
10.33%
Answer of Part c:
Weight
of Debt = 0.70/1.70
Weight of Debt = 0.4118
Weight
of Common Stock = 1/1.70
Weight of Common Stock = 0.5882
WACC = Weight of Debt*After-tax Cost of Debt +
Weight of Common Stock*Cost of Common Stock
WACC = 0.4118 * 4.58% + 0.5882 * 10.33%
WACC =
7.96%
