1. QUESTION I
WACC BASED ON TARGET CAPITAL STRUCTURE
Target weights
Equity 70%
Debt 30%
Cost of Capital Components
DEBT CAPITAL
Consists of Debentures and the long term loan
Cost of debentures = 0.08(1-0.28) = 0.0576
Cost of long term loan = 542 400/6 007 924 (1 -0.28) = 0.065002
The question states the following;
Under the target debt, debentures should be double the sum of other interest-bearing
instruments
This means weight of debentures is 66% while long term loan is 33%
Therefore cost of Total debt capital = 66%( 0.0576) + 33%(0.065002) = 0.05946666
EQUITY CAPITAL
D1 = 15 000 000 given in the question
Po = 180 000 000 also given
Sustainable Growth rate (according to item c) = 21 600 000/20 000 000 – 1 = 0.08
Cost of equity = D1/Po + g = 15 000 000/180 000 000 + 0.08 = 0.163333333
Weighted Average Cost of Capital Calculation
WACC = We.Ke + Wd.Kd(1-T)
= (70%*0.163333)+(30%*0.05946666)
= 0.132173098 = 13.22%
