MV of equity=Price of equity*number of shares outstanding
MV of equity=12.87*3000000
=38610000
MV of Bond=Par value*bonds outstanding*%age of par
MV of Bond=1000*12000*0.89
=10680000
MV of firm = MV of Equity + MV of Bond
=38610000+10680000
=49290000
Weight of equity = MV of Equity/MV of firm
Weight of equity = 38610000/49290000
W(E)=0.7833
Weight of debt = MV of Bond/MV of firm
Weight of debt = 10680000/49290000
W(D)=0.2167
Cost of equity
As per CAPM
Cost of equity = risk-free rate + beta * (Market risk premium)
Cost of equity% = 4 + 1.09 * (8)
Cost of equity% = 12.72
After tax cost of debt = cost of debt*(1-tax rate)
After tax cost of debt = 10*(1-0.35)
= 6.5
WACC=after tax cost of debt*W(D)+cost of equity*W(E)
WACC=6.5*0.2167+12.72*0.7833
WACC =11.37%
