3.38%

Explanation:

For computing the firm's weighted average after tax cost of debt first we have to find out the rate i.e to be shown in the attachment

For the first issue

Given that,

Present value = $1,000 × 104% = $1,040

Future value or Face value = $1,000

PMT = 1,000 × 3.6% ÷ 2 = $18

NPER = 7 years × 2 = 14 years

The formula is shown below:

= Rate(NPER;PMT;-PV;FV;type)

The present value come in negative

So, after applying the above formula

1. The pretax cost of debt is 1.48% × 2 = 2.96%

2. And, the after tax cost of debt would be

= Pretax cost of debt × ( 1 - tax rate)

= 2.96% × ( 1 - 0.39)

= 1.81%

For the second issue

Given that,

Present value = $1,000 × 92% = $920

Future value or Face value = $1,000

PMT = 1,000 × 6.34% ÷ 2 = $31.7

NPER = 26 years × 2 = 52 years

The formula is shown below:

= Rate(NPER;PMT;-PV;FV;type)

The present value come in negative

So, after applying the above formula

1. The pretax cost of debt is 3.51% × 2 = 7.02%

2. And, the after tax cost of debt would be

= Pretax cost of debt × ( 1 - tax rate)

= 7.02% × ( 1 - 0.39)

= 4.28%

Now the weighted average cost of capital after tax cost of debt is

($4.1 ×104%)

b. Second issue $7.73 0.6444 4.28% 0.027569

($8.4 × 92%)

c. Total $11.99 3.38%
