Cost of Debt
Yield to Maturity [YTM] = Coupon Amount + [(Face Value – Bond Price) / Maturity Years] / [(Face Value + Bond Price)/2]
= $75 + [($1,000 - $1,140) / 15)] / [($1,000 + $1,140) / 2]
= [($75 – 9.33) / $1,070] x 100
= 6.07%
Pre Tax Cost of Debt = 6.07%
After Tax Cost of Debt = 6.07 x [1-0.35] = 3.95%
Cost of Equity
Cost of Equity = Rf + [Beta x Market Risk Premium]
= 4% + [1.25 x 7.50%]
= 13.38%
Cost of Preferred Stock
Cost of Preferred Stock = [Preferred Dividend / Share Price] x 100
= [$5.00 / $91.00] x 100
= 5.49%
Market Value of Each Capital Components
Value of Debt = 135,000 x $1,000 x 114% = $153,900,000
Value of Equity = 850,000 x $34 = $289,000,000
Value of Preferred = 250,000 x $91 = $22,750,000
Total Value = $ 465,650,000
Weight of Debt, Equity, Preferred
Weight of Debt = $153,900,000 / $ 465,650,000 = 0.3305
Weight of Equity = $289,000,000 / $ 465,650,000 = 0.6206
Weight of Preferred = $22,750,000 / $ 465,650,000 = 0.0489
Weighted Average Cost of Capital
= [After Tax Cost of Debt x Weight of Debt ] + [ Cost of equity x Weight of common stock ] + [ Cost of Preferred stock x Weight of preferred stock ]
= [3.95% x 0.3305] + [13.38% x 0.6206] + [5.49% x 0.0489]
= 1.31% + 8.30% + 0.27%
= 9.88%
