Company has a pretax cost of debt of 8 percent, a cost of equity of 15 percent, and a cost of preferred stock of 9 percent. The firm has 80,000 shares of common stock outstanding at a market price of $20 per share. There are 20,000 shares of preferred stock outstanding at a market price of $40 per share. The bond issue has a face value of $1,000,000 and sells for 80% of face value. The company's tax rate is 20 percent. What is the weighted average cost of capital?
Equity = 80,000 * 20 = 1,600,000
Preferred Stock = 20,000 * 40 = 800,000
Debt = 1,000,000 * 0.8 = 800,000
Weight of Equity, Preferred Stock, Debt = 50%, 25%, 25%
Cost of Equity, Preferred Stock, Debt = 15%, 9%, 8%
WACC = (0.5*0.15) + (0.25*0.09) + (0.25*0.08*(0.8)) = 0.1135 = 11.35%
4.
Company has 6 percent preferred stock outstanding that is currently selling for $49 per share. The tax rate is 21 percent. What is the cost of preferred stock if its stated (Par) value is $100 per share?
