Formula for calculating WACC = Kd * Wd + Ke * Wd + Kp * Wp
Kd = after tax cost of debt
Wd = Weight of Debt
Ke = Cost of Equity
We = Weight of Equity
Kp = Cost of Preference shares
Wp = Weight of Preference Shares

WACC = Kd1 * Wd1 +Kd2 * Wd2 +Kp1*Wp1 + Kp2 * Wp2 +Ke *We
=4.03%*29.92% +4.96%*15.38%+ 4.5%*7.69% + 6%*6.41%+14% * 40.60%
=8.3832%
=8.38%
Calculation of after tax Cost of Debt
Formula for calculating after tax cost of Debt = Interest rate * (1 – Tax Rate)
= 4.03%
= 4.96%
Calculation of Weight
Weight of each component = (Value of the component ÷ Total Capital) * 100
Example
Weight of 6.5% First Mortgage Bond = ($70,000,000 ÷ $234,000,000) * 100
=29.92%
Weight of 8% Senior Sub Ordinated Bond = ($36,000,000 ÷ $234,000,000) * 100
=15.38%
