| Debt Capital | Preferred Stock Capital |
A) 4.2% 6.3% B) 4.5% 5.6% C) 4.5% 6.3% D) 4.2% 5.6% The correct answer was D) Debt
N=20, FV=1000, PMT=60, PV = -894, compute i = 7%
kd = (7%)(1-.4) = 4.2% Preferred Stock
kps = Dps / P
kps = 5 / 90 = 5.56% 12.What is the weighted average cost of capital (WACC)? A) 9.2%. B) 8.5%. C) 10.3%. D) 12.4%. The correct answer was B) kce = (D1 / P0) + g kce = 2/45 + .08 = .1244 = 12.44% WACC = (.4)(4.2) + (.1)(5.6) + (.5)(12.4) = 8.5% 13.A firm has $3 million in outstanding 10-year bonds, with a fixed rate of 8 percent (assume annual payments). The bonds trade at a price of $92 per $100 par in the open market. The firm’s marginal tax rate is 35 percent. What is the after-tax component cost of debt to be used in the weighted average cost of capital (WACC) calculations? A) 9.89%. B) 6.02%. C) 9.26%. D) 5.40%. The correct answer was B) If the bonds are trading at $92 per $100 par, the required yield is 9.26 percent, and the market value of the issue is $2.76 million.
The equivalent after-tax cost of this financing is: 9.26% (1 – 0.35) = 6.02%. 14.Genoa Corp. is estimating its weighted average cost of capital (WACC). They have several pieces of data to consider. The firm pays 40 percent of its earnings out in dividends. The return on equity (ROE) is 15 percent. Last year’s earnings were $5.00 per share and the dividend was just paid to shareholders. The current price of shares is $42.00. Genoa's 8% coupon bonds have a yield to maturity of 7.5 percent. The firm's tax rate is 30 percent. The cost of common equity is closest to: A) 14.19%. B) 13.76%. C) 16.14%. D) 11.19%. The correct answer was A) ROE × retention ratio = growth rate. 15% × (1 – 0.40) = 9%
D0 = $5.00 × 0.40 = $2.00
[$2.00(1.09) / $42.00] + 0.09 = 14.19% 15.The after-tax cost of debt is closest to: A) 5.6%. B) 7.5%. C) 8.0%. D) 5.3%. The correct answer was D) 7.5 ×(1 − 0.3) = 5.25% |
