Calculation 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: 40​% ​long-term debt, 25​% preferred​ stock, and 35​% common stock equity​ (retained earnings, new common​ stock, or​ both). The​ firm's tax rate is 26​%.   Debt The firm can sell for ​$1000 a 15​-year, ​$1,000​-par-value bond paying annual interest at a 6.00​% coupon rate. A flotation cost of 3​% of the par value is required.   Preferred stock   7.00​% ​(annual dividend) preferred stock having a par value of ​$100 can be sold for ​$92. An additional fee of ​$3 per share must be paid to the underwriters.   Common stock  The​ firm's common stock is currently selling for ​$60 per share.

Here is the problem: Famas's LLamas has a weighted average cost of capital of  7.9%. The company's cost of equity is 11% and its pretaxt cost of debt is 5.8%. The taxt rate is 25%. What is the company's target debt-equity ratio? Here is the solution: Here we have the WACC and need to find the debt-equity ratio of the company. Setting up the WACC equation, we find:          WACC = .0790 = .11(E/V) + .058(D/V)(1 – .25)          Rearranging the equation, we find:          .0790(V/E) = .11 + .058(.75)(D/E)          Now we must realize that the V/E is just the equity multiplier, which is equal to:          V/E = 1 + D/E          .0790(D/E + 1) = .11 + .0435(D/E)             Now we can solve for D/E as:          .0355(D/E) = .031               D/E = .8732   Question: I need help especifically with the part where they rearrange the equation as: .0790(V/E) = .11 + .058(.75)(D/E). How do they get an inverse (V/E) on the left side without the .11. And how do they get a (D/E) ratio. I understand…
