i. Calculate TALAMO FOODS cost of Equity. [3]
ii. Calculate TALAMO FOOD weighted average cost of capital (WACC)
1. cost of equity=(D1/share price)+growth rate
D1=D0*(1+growth rate)=5*(1+5%)=5.25
cost of equity=(5.25/25)+5%=21%+5%=26%
2. WACC=(weight of equity*cost of equity)+(weight of debt*after tax cost of debt)
after tax cost of debt=yield to maturity*(1-tax rate)=12%*(1-35%)=7.8%
WACC=(50%*26%)+(50%*7.8%)=16.9%
