Daniel's Sound Systems has 210,000 shares of common stock outstanding at a market price of $36 a share. Last month, Daniel's paid an annual dividend in the amount of $1.593 per share. The dividend growth rate is 4%. Daniel's also has 6,000 bonds outstanding with a face value of $1,000 per bond. The bonds carry a 7% coupon, pay interest annually, and mature in 4.89 years. The bonds are selling at 99% of face value. The company's tax rate is 34%. What is Daniel's weighted average cost of capital

0.0038 %

Explanation:

WACC = Cost of Equity x Weight of Equity + Cost of Debt x Weight of Debt

where,

Cost of Equity Calculation

Cost of Equity = ($1.593 x 1.04) ÷ $36 + 0.04 = 11.33 %

Cost of Debt Calculation

PMT = 1000 x 7 % = $70

N = 4.89

PV = $ 1,000 x 99 % = $990

FV  = 1,000

P/YR = 1

YTM = ?

Therefore Pre- tax cost of debt is 7.25 %

After tax cost of debt = 7.25 % x ( 1 - 0.34)

                                    = 4.79 %

Weight of Equity = 210,000 x $36 / (210,000 x $36 + 6,000 x $1,000)

                            = 0.0010

Weight of Debt = 6,000 x $1,000 / (210,000 x $36 + 6,000 x $1,000)

                            = 0.00079

Now

WACC = 11.33 % x 0.0010 + 4.79 % x 0.00079

Therefore

Daniel's weighted average cost of capital is 0.0038 %

forbearance of student loan payments. under forbearance, your loan payments are postponed (or reduced) but interest continues to accrue during the period of forbearance. if you don't pay the interest during that period, the interest may be “capitalized,” which means it is added to your principal balance.
