Answer:
5.38 %
Explanation:
WACC = Cost of Equity x Weight of Equity + Cost of Debt x Weight of Debt
where,
Cost of Equity = 9.00 % (given)
After tax Cost of Debt = 6% x (1 - 0.21) = 4.74 %
Market Value of Equity = 1/5 x $13 million = $2.6 million
Weight of Equity = $2.6 million / $11.6 million = 0.22
Weight of Debt = $9 million / $11.6 million = 0.76
therefore,
WACC = 9.00 % x 0.22 + 4.74 % x 0.76
= 5.38 %
thus
the company’s WACC is 5.38 %
