Under this new and more debt-oriented arrangement, the after-tax cost of debt is 7 percent, and the cost of common equity (in the form of retained earnings) is 15 percent. Recalculate the firm’s weighted average cost of capital.   b. Which plan is optimal in terms of minimizing the weighted average cost of capital?

E1 (earnings at the end of period one) = $7, payout ratio equals 40 percent, P0= $30, g=6%, F=$2,20. Note: D1 is the earnings times the payout rate. d. D0 (dividend at the beginning of the first period) = $6, growth rate for dividends and earnings (g)=7%, P0=$60, F=$3. You will need to calculate D1 (the dividend after the first period).
