Using financial calculator BA II Plus - Input details:
#
FV = Future Value =
$1,000.00
PV = Present Value =
-$1,005.00
N = Total number of periods = Years x frequency of coupon =
42
PMT = Payment = Coupon / frequency of coupon =
$47.00
CPT > I/Y = Rate or YTM =
4.6726
Convert Yield in annual and percentage form = Yield / 100*2 =
9.35%
After-tax cost of debt = YTM x (1-Tax) = Yield x (1-40%) =

.
Cost of equity as per CAPM:
