Answer #1

6.

Given,

Current dividend (D0) = $6

Growth rate (g) = 9% or 0.09

Current stock price (P0) = $89

Before-tax cost of debt = 6%

Tax rate (t) = 45% or 0.45

Weight of debt = 38% or 0.38

Weight of equity = 62% or 0.62

Solution :-

= (3.30%)(0.38) + (16.348 %)(0.67) = 1.254 % + 10.13576% - 11.38976 or 11. 39 % Thus, the companys WACC is 11.39%
