- Suppose Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company has an equity cost of capital of 7.9%, a debt cost of capital of 6.4%, a marginal corporate tax rate of 21%, and a debt-equity ratio of 2.7. Assume that Goodyear maintains a constant debt-equity ratio. a. What is Goodyear's WACC? b. What is Goodyear's unlevered cost of capital? c. Explain, intuitively, why Goodyear's unlevered cost of capital is less than its equity cost of capital and higher than its WACC. a. What is Goodyear's WACC? The WACC is %. (Round to two decimal places.)arrow_forwardGiven the following information, compute the firm's WACC: • The firm's cost of equity = 16% • The firm's before-tax cost of long-term debt = 7% • The firm's capital structure is 35% long-term debt and 65% common equity • The firm's marginal tax rate = 25% O 10.25% O 12.85% 12.24% O 13.28%arrow_forwardCalculation of individual costs and WACC: Dillon Labs has asked its financial manager to measure the cost of each specific type of capital as well as the weighted average cost of capital. The weighted average cost is to be measured by using the following weights: 35% long-term debt, 10% preferred stock, and 55% common stock equity (retained earnings, new common stock, or both). The firm's tax rate is 28%. debt The firm can sell for $1010 a 14-year, $1,000-par-value bond paying annual interest at a 7.00% coupon rate. A flotation cost of 2.5% of the par value is required. Preferred stock 7.00% (annual dividend) preferred stock having a par value of $100 can be sold for $88. An additional fee of$4 per share must be paid to the underwriters. Common stock The firm's common stock is currently selling for $70 per share. The stock has paid a dividend that has gradually increased for many years, rising from $2.25 ten years ago to the $3.67 dividendpayment, D0, that…arrow_forward

Table1: Information of the firms Unlevered firm Levered firm EBIT 20000 20000 Interest Taxable income Tax (tax rate: 34%) Net income CFFA Assuming that: The size of the debt is 8000; cost of debt =8%; unlevered cost of capital =10%; systematic risk of the asset is 1.5 Fill in the blanks What is the present value of the tax shield? Calculate the following values:a) Calculate value of unlevered firm; b) value of the levered firm; c) equity value; d) Cost of equity; e) cost of capital; f) systematic risk of the equity Suppose that the firm changes its capital structure so that the debt-to-equity ratio is 1.6, then recalculate the systematic risk of the equity If the firm now has the following project: in year 0, the cashflow is 5000, in year 1, the cashflow is -5500.
