Question
Sapp Trucking's balance sheet shows a total of noncallable $45 million long-term
debt with a coupon rate of 7.00% and a yield to maturity of 6.26 %. This debt
currently has a market value of $50 million. The balance sheet also shows that the
company has 10 million shares of common stock, and the book value of the common
equity (common stock plus retained earnings) is $55 million. The current stock price
is $20 per share; stockholders' required return, rs, is 21.83 % ; and the firm's tax rate
is 40%. The CFO thinks the WACC should be based on market value weights, but the
idiot president thinks book weights are more appropriate. What is the difference
between these two WACCS?
