Answer a.
To calculate the after-tax cost of debt, multiply the before-tax cost of debt by (1 - T).
Answer b.
Before-tax Cost of Debt = 12.50%
After-tax Cost of Debt = 12.50% * (1 - 0.25)
After-tax Cost of Debt = 9.38%
Answer c.
Face Value = $1,000
Current Price = $1,329.55
Annual Coupon Rate = 12.00%
Annual Coupon = 12.00% * $1,000
Annual Coupon = $120
Time to Maturity = 15 years
Let Annual YTM be i%
$1,329.55 = $120 * PVIFA(i%, 15) + $1,000 * PVIF(i%, 15)
Using financial calculator:
N = 15
PV = -1329.55
PMT = 120
FV = 1000
I = 8.1213%
Annual YTM = 8.1213%
Before-tax Cost of Debt = 8.1213%
After-tax Cost of Debt = 8.1213% * (1 - 0.25)
After-tax Cost of Debt = 6.09%
