Question 1
0 / 1 pts
Palo Verde, Inc., has found that its cost of equity is 18 percent, and its (before-tax) cost of debt
is 6 percent. If the firm is financed with 89 percent equity and the remainder of the financing is in
debt, what is the WACC (weighted average cost of capital) for Palo Verde if it is subject to a
25% tax rate?
Answer to the nearest 0.01%
5
16.52 margin of error +/- 0.05
To calculate after-tax cost of debt,
After-tax = cost of debt * (1 - tax rate)
The formula to calculate WACC is,
WACC = (cost of equity*weight of equity) + (after-tax cost of debt*weight of debt)
*Make sure all the numbers are in decimals
**The final answer, WACC, should be in percentage
