A firm's new financing will be in proportion to the market value of its current financing shown below. Carrying Amount ($000 Omitted) Long-term debt $7,000 Preferred stock (100,000 shares) 1,000 Common stock (200,000 shares) 7,000 The firm's bonds are currently selling at 80% of par, generating a current market yield of 9%, and the corporation has a 40% tax rate. The preferred stock is selling at its par value and pays a 6% dividend. The common stock has a current market value of $40 and is expected to pay a $1.20 per share dividend this fiscal year. Dividend growth is expected to be 10%, per year, and flotation costs are negligible. The firm's weighted-average cost of capital is (round calculations to tenths of a percent)
