cost of capital using:
a) Book value proportions
b) Market value proportions
SOLUTION:
Step 1: Calculation of specific cost of specific cost of capital:
A) cost of equity:
Ke = D/MP + g
= 3.60 / 40 + 0.07
= 0.09+ 0.07
= 0.16 * 100 = 16%
B) Cost of retained earning = same as cost of equity
Kr= 16%
C) Cost of redeemable preference share capital:
Kp = 11 + 1/10 (100 – 75)
½ (100+75)
= 11 + 2.5 / 87.5
= 0.1543* 100 = 15.43%
D) After tax cost of redeemable debentures:
Kda = I (1-t) +1/n (R V– NP)
Kda = 13.5 (1-0.50) + 1/6(100-80)
½(100+80) ½ (R V+ NP)
= 0.112*100 = 11.2%
E) cost of term loan:
K = I / NP (1 – t)
= 15/100 (1 -0.50)
= 0.075* 100 = 7.5%
