Expert Solution
| 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% |
