R. s. green has 250,000 shares of common stock outstanding at a market price of $28 a share. next year’s annual dividend is expected to be $1.55 a share. the dividend growth rate is 2 percent. the firm also has 7,500 bonds outstanding with a face value of $1,000 per bond. the bonds carry a 7 percent coupon, pay interest semiannually, and mature in 7.5 years. the bonds are selling at 98 percent of face value. the company’s tax rate is 34 percent. what is the firm’s weighted average cost of capital?

WACC 6.18%

Explanation:

to get the cost of capital we solve using the gordon model:

D11.55

P28

f0.00

g0.02

Ke0.075357143

Then for the cost of debt, we need to calculate the YTM of the bonds:

which is the rate at which the present value of the coupon payment and maturity equals the market price:

For the complexity this is done with excel or a financial calculator there is also an approximation formula

YTM with excel: 0.073516565

now that we good this we need to determinate the weigth of equity and debt:

250,00 shares x 28 dollars each = 7,000,000

1,500 bonds of $1,000 each at 98% = 7,350,000

value of the company: 7,000,000 + 7,350,000 = 14,350,000

Ew: 7,000,000 / 14,350,000 = 0.487804878

Dw: 7,350,000 / 14,350,000 =0.512195122

Now we got all values and we can determinate the WACC:

Ke0.075357143

Equity weight0.487804878

Kd0.074

Debt Weight0.512195122

t0.34

WACC0.0617752 = 6.18%

there is no possible way mgk stands a chance with the greatest white rapper of all time. eminem killshots had more bars than rap devil and the reason mgk is doing all this is cause he not getting attention anymore til the release of rap devil and the disses he is putting on eminem. now rap devil was more fire than killshot so mgk might won the battle with rap devil but eminem won the war with killshot.
